MT. ZION NOTES
By RUTH WORMACK

Our Motto: Under God We Will Build
think the first Sunday in each month
is the most sacred of all as it l.. comnlun-
ion day. A day when we should put aside
the lighter aspects of our life and think
on the why and wherefore of having Com
munion. In meditating on the subject let
this prayer be the answer:
Make me an instrument of your peace ;
where there is hatred, let me SOW o e :;
where there is injury, pardon; where there
is discord, union; where there is doubt,
faith; where there is dispair, hope; where
there is darkness, light; and where there
is sadness, JOY"
