UNLIMITED Forgiveness" was
beautifully discussed by the diff
ferent classes in schools of Wis
dom Sunday. Forgiveness is the
very heart of the gospel. There
is no ceiling on Gods forgiveness,
and it has priority ON Gods love
and mercy over everything else
We are to forgive again and
again until mercy is rooted in
the human heart and begins to
bear fruit. Without forgiveness
men and nations will ever be at
each others threats. However we
are what we are by the grace of
God.
"Obey and be at peace" was
the topic of the youths lesson in
the Y. r. V. B. Scripture TheS.
1923. The 23rd verse tells us
that after we put aside all the
things that are not Christ-like
and purify ourselves the very God
of peace will sanctify us wholly
The devotional service was ex-
tremely wonderful. Many glorious
testimonies were told. Elder
David Murray, pastor Of the
church in Belle Glade, preached
briefly from 1 Samuel.
Let me leave this thought with
you: Remember now thy creator
IN the days of thy youth, while
the evil days come not, nor the
years draw nigh, when thou shalt
say, I have no pleasure in them.

BLOW we the trumpet in zion,
and sound an ALARM" said Elder
L. M. Nelson, Bethany's guest
speaker as he opened the "Voice
of Youth Rally" last Sabbath. It
was with deep concern and con-
secration that the Missionary
Volunteer Society" celebrated it's
50th anniversary. In 1907 there
were only 10000 Seventh D y
AdventiStS youth around the
world. Today, we see how God is
blessing his work for there are
10000 youth in the Southern
Union alone.
Elder Nelson appealed to the
Youth of the church to celebrate
this 50th anniversary by falling
on their knees in fasting and
prayer, for the outpouring of the
Holy Spirit; that we may be bet
ter prepared to win hearts to
Christ.
In keeping with this great event
Sabbath, March 16 will begin the
M. v. S. annual spring week of
prayer, which will end March %,
this week will be dedicated to
the conservation and spiritual ad-
vancement of the youth. Elder c.
B. Rock, pastor Of the Orlando
district, will speak each evening
at 7:45. You will want to hear his
inspiring messages.
Service will be conducted by
the youth of the church.

Sunday School on last Sunday
was most interesting and inspir-
ing. The lessons are so presented
that they can be easily applied to
our daily living.
Junior church day is always
welcomed at the church. Coming
just once per month, when the
youth are permitted to display
their spiritual Life and activities
to the adult part of the church.
The pastor preached a very
appropriate sermon for the occa-
sion. His text was taken from the
18th chapter of st. Matthews and
the 10Th verse. A very searching
passage, filled with inspiration
and information. He had such a
unique pattern in presenting this
passage.
More and more interest is be-
ing manifested in the BTU SER
vice. You miss treats if you fail
to attend in the afternoon. We
have very interesting directress
with her associates. The great
call is to the youth. Adults natur-
ally, play their part anyway.
The evening service, though
good and inspiring. yet the at
tendance is beginning to wane.
What is the matter? All would
like to stay away at light, but
duty calls us. Think of the pastors

great sermon. The text: 81 must
work the work of Him that sent
me while it's day; for, when
night comes no man can work.
The spirit came in the building.
There were two candidates for
baptism, asking for the water.
AT $50 pm. the BTU held its
regular hour. Sunday night We

great minister from Hartford.
Conn, Rev. Oats. He brought to
us a wonderful message as he
spoke from Deuteronomy 40:
Only take heed to myself and
keep thy soul diligently lest thou
forget the things which thine eyes
have seen. The sermon was very
inspiring.
You are always welcome to
worship with us. The Junior choir
sang Sunday morning while the
