MISSION WEEK
AT ST. MARY'S
BEGINS SUNDAY
FATHER McGRATH, WHO WAS
HEARD HERE SOMETIME
AGO, WILL RETURN TO.
MORROW
COMMUNICATED

Tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock
the eloquent Jesuit Missionary,
Father Thomas McGrath, S. j.,
will open a mission at st. Mary's
Church for the spiritual benefit of
the parish. Last year Father
McGrath attracted large crowds
by his straight, sincere and
forceful style and eloquence.
His pleasing personality, his
popular style of presentation,
his eloquent delivery. his many
friends within the fold and outside
requested repetition of this rare
treat of soul stirring sermons.
With a new series of talks vital
and instructive, the most talked
of subjects of the day, the. rev.
erend orator will again give Key
Westers. an intellectual, literary,
and spiritual cocktail that will
put new life and. new purpose
to life, that will make. one appre-
ciate life at its real value. The
heart of society," and the hearts
of individuals as well, stand today
in very urgent need of Gods Re-
covery Plan. The reason is not
far to seek; the world is still en-
gagged in an age old quest, human
hearts are still seeking peace
within themselves, within their |
homes, among their neighbors, |
whether they be nation or next |
door.
But the world is funny old |
place. and human hearts are
strange, queer things-they often
the obvious, they often |
seek fruitlessly abroad what they
can find at home. they often make |
the attainment difficult of what |
may be in itself an easy ac-
QUESTION.
In our study of our difficulties |
there is one source of all the dis
tress in life today, and that is
Supreme Selfishness. To control
and conquer self. Gods Recovery |
Plan depends upon two helps on
our side-that are necessary to
save us, and those are Faith and
Goodwill. His graces are always |
at our request.
The characters of men do not
change, human nature is the same
today as it was in the first CEN
fury. The whirligig of time in it's
spin brings the same difficulties
back again to be solved. Gods
given Recovery Plan will be as eff
ficacious today in the goth CEN
fury as in the first-but it all de- !
ponds upon our faith and good
will. Our salvation as nation
as an individual depends upon
those two essential requisites in
US.
God created us without our con-
sultation but He will not save us
without our cooperation.
The series of sermons will reveal
Gods Recovery Plan. and will
arouse those necessary requisites
in us which God will restore, will
bless us according to our faith and
generosity. nIe,t d.
