The six o'clock morning service
held at Bethesda Baptist church
brought to light many hidden desires
and deepened convictions of the
grave need of such service for a
number of years. No such service
before has been held in the church,
but our pastor, Rev. w. E. Wad-
lington. who has taken such an in
terest in the development of the ac-
tivities of the church, particularly
the spiritual welfare of the church,
did not feel that he could let the
Christmas Day pass without having
service. So at his suggestion the
church agreed to have such a meet
ing. The various departments of
the church were represented.
Pew. Wadlirrton took his theme
from the Gospel according to Saint
Matthew 2:2, which reads as fol
lows
"Where is He that is born king OF
the Jews? For we have seen his
star in the east and are come tt
worship Him."
Using as he continued
1. The motivating power of wor
ship.
2. The manner of worship.
8. The gifts of worship.
Some of the testimonies were a!
follows

"This is my own birthday. l ap
preciate greatly this service. The
