Rev. w. Vaughn Moore and son
Vaughn P. Moore, attended th'
Young Peoples meeting held in I'm
manuel M. E. Church, Crisfield, Md.
on Friday and Saturday of last week
Rev. Moore was given the task o.
conducting the early service at
o'clock on Saturday morning ano
was pleased to have 3S young people
in attendance out of the 16S regis
trations. Due to the inclement
weather on Saturday others were
detained who probably would have
been in attendance.
The scripture lesson for Sunday
morning was the 5Srd Chapter of
Isaiah, and the subject was selected
from the 1st verse, "Who Hath Be
lieved Our Report?" The pastor
said how many there are who have
refused to believe the report that
Jesus, the Babe of Bethlehem, the
Man of Gallilee, came TO hear our
burdens and carry our sorrows.
Yet, He is willing and waiting to do
so, if we only believe the report and
cast our burdens upon Him.
In the evening Miss Hazel Holland
and Miss Virginia Long had charge
of the worship program, and the
text for the sermon was a part of
the 4th verse of the Sth Psalm, what
Is Man That Thou Art Mindful of
Him."
The pastor defined man as a re-
ceptacle or vessel to receive and
contain something, and said we
should be carefully guarded and not
receive anything that will be con-
taminating or poisonous to either
body or soul To the young people
he said, You are going to be invited
to parties and social affairs this
Christmas like you have never seen
before, and urged them to be on their
guard and not yield to a temptation
that will drag them down into sin
and degeneration.
