he expected his Christly acts to be
understood by his followers as
evidence OF the true nature OF God

TO show them the Father, Jesus
seemed surprised that they had
not understood his method OF re-
vealing God. "Havc been so
long time with you. and yet hast
thou moi known me. Philip" he
asked; "he that hath seen me hath
seen the Father: and how sayest
thou then. Shew us the Father"

how many find time amid the
holiday festivities TO ponder the
life and works OF Jesus. whose

OF US. the Christmas season should
mean something more than q mo-

the Master. It's celebration should
emphasize spirituality, not mate

outweigh pleasure in conviviality.

FACTS ABOUT THE AGED
There are certain facts lsvmen
should face with regard TO the
old people in the church and in
the community facts which
should challenge them. They are:
! There is among the aged an
increase of widows and wild
overs. widows re-marry less
frequently than widowers.)
2 Economic insecurity increases
with old age.
3. Employability decreases with
increasing old age
4 Interest in life decreases
with increasing old age.
5. Interest in religion and the
future life increases with old
age
6. Dependence upon others in
creases with old age.
T. Retirement from clubs and
other groups because of a lack
Of money for dues and other OBJ
legations increases with old age.
g. Physical vigor decreases
with increasing old age
o Interest in hobbies decreases
with increasing old age.
LsYmen who are challenged
by such facts 10 do something
for the aged should be guided
in their plans by what sociolo-
gisfs call the four basic needs
Of people. They are as follows.

A MINISTRY TO THE AGED
An area Of opportunity which
has been woefully neglected by
the church is its ministry TO the
aged. This is difficult TO under
stand In the light OF the fact
that the population Of the United
States is getting older all the
time and that our congregations
are made up for the most part
OF older persons.
II has been said by a well
known sociologisi that we
haved placed an over valuation
upon youth and an under-vslu-
alton upon maturity; hense
