BORDER CHURCH NOTES

Sunday at the morning worship
Rev. c. NJ. Sexton spoke on the
subject, THE Guiding Light" The
scripture reading was from
Psalms 119-S1O5. He said in part
that whatever we do in life. we
are guided by either education or
the experience of others. Jesus
said, 1 am the Light of the
World" People don't see the light
because they don't care to follow
truth. Could we but say like one
of the writer's, Thy word is
light unto my life and a lamp I'M
to my feet" If we accept the
teachings of Jesus Christ and fol-
low Him we will never walk in
darkness. There is something that
always directs our way of life for
good or bad and il is upon this
guiding influence that depends
our usccess or failure.
Many visitors were present. All
were made welcome and invited
to worship with us again. Next
Sunday Rev. Sexton will speak on
the subject, Flying High"
Scripture reading, lisa. 40.
Class meeting every Thursday
evening at 8 o'clock. The ever
growing attendance is encourage
ing. You, too, are invited to at
tend these interesting meetings.
Not a prayer meeting but an hour
of spiritual uplift.
At the Vesper hour last Sunday
evening, the presentation of the
Twelve Tribes of Israel, by the
Finance Committee, was quite a
success. 1t was quite novel and
all were well pleased. Next Sun
day from 6 to 7, the Park Avenue
Methodist church will be present.
