CARD OF THANKS

1t is difficult for us to express
with words our heartfelt feeling of
appreciation to all those who were
so kind to us during the illness and
passing of our beloved mother and

the comforting words and the many
kind acts of our friends and her
friends helped to make our sorrow
easier to bear and our home seem
less empty.
We wish to thank Rev. John j..
Moedt for his kind and comfort
ing words, the pallbearers, and those
who sang, and all those who assisted
in any way to help us.

Church and Home
BY REV. M. MIKKELSEN

1t remains forever mystery Ito
the way of life himself, can teach
it to others. AS one Harold Phillips
puts it: How you save thing de-
ponds upon the nature of that which
you are trying to save. If we want
to save some pears we can them, put
them in alright containers. But if
we used that method on tulip bulbs
we would not save them but destroy
them. If it is money we want to
save we put it in the bank; but if
we have a talent for music or art
and try to save that by putting it
away some place for safe keeping, we
would not save it." (Quotation from
Ungdom, March, 1941.)
If it is human souls we are con-
cerned about it stands out with un-
usual clearness that there is a way
presumably saving) that is very
selfish. You can be just as selfish
about your soul as about your body
or your house or your car.
The objective in group life as in
group instruction is to bring JOY into
the individual soul. If a teacher of
a Sunday school class can add to the
JOY of a child's life and give that
child something definitely valuable
to take along home that will en-
large the general happiness of home
life there is not only satisfaction in
the work but also permanent re-
ward The goal of Christian teach
ing is to find the lost, also to find
that which is lost, and to devise ways
and means by which it can be re-
gained. The best way to be soul
winner in your home and your COM
munity is to know about the past
and understand the present needs.
1t is probably a good way to test
your ability as promoter OF joy to
look for that joy in the hearts of
friends and fellowmen; if it fails to be
seen, that is, if they fail to rejoice,
there is something lacking with you
or them. We want this expression
of happiness which we are looking
for, and certainly have right to
look for, to be genuine; we do not
want anyone to pretend that he en-
joyed our service (the lift we gave
him) unless there is that real JOY
at the bottom of his heart which he
cannot conceal at any price.
But if it is not there (yet) it is
not much use to look for it. We
should rather look into our own
hearts then to see if the Joy, that is
so important to have for one who
wants to pass it on to others, is
there, and whether it is the real
stuff. In order to inspire you must
have been inspired yourself. Only
he may hope to find who has been
found himself.
