Moody, What Others Say LORDS PRAYER AND MISSIONS Oshawa, Ont. Dear Editor: I could never understand how the man who does not believe in, or give anything for the support of Missions can sincerely offer the Lord's prayer. Such a man thinks only of him- self. How can he pray "Thy King- dom come" and make no effort to promote the Kingdom? The Lord's prayer, amended as per copy enclosed, is the only part of that marvellous compendium that the self centered man can hon- estly use, At the present time several churches are appealing to their people for more generous support of their noble Missionary enter- prises. If you could kindly find space for the enclosure, in fairy good type, on your Saturday Church page, it might be helpful. As a subscriber I wish to express my deep appreciation of the high stand tak- en on all moral questions in your editorial utterances, Very sincerely INTERESTED READER. THE LORD'S PRAYER AMENDED (For the jap who gives nothing 'or Missions My Father Who art in Heaven, + + +» +» = Give me this day my daily bread, and forgive me my debts as I forgive my debtors; and lead me not into temptation, but deliver me from evil; . . . . » Amen, . Rev. T. D. E. Raynor in Knox Church Tomorrow The preacher at Knox Presbyter- fan Church on Sunday will be the Rev, T. de Courcey Rayner, who come from Wallacetown, Ont. Mr. Rayner is well-known throughout Eastern Ontario, as he was at one time pastor of the First Congrega- tional Church, Woodstock, and later went to the Congregational Church at Watford, After church union, however, he threw in his lot with the Presbyterian Church, and has for some time occupied the charge at Wallacetown. He is an excellent preacher, and has won for himself a splendid reputation in all the charges he has occupied. CHRISTIAN GIVING ) A' gentleman called on a well-to- do merchant for a contribution to some charitable object. "Yes, I must give you my mite," said the man. "Do you mean the widow's mite?" asked his friend. "Certain- ly," answered the merchant. "I shall be satisfied with half as much as she gave," said the solicit- or, "Now, how much may you be worth?" "Oh," said the merchant "about $75,000." "Then," said the friend, "give me your cheque for $35,000; that will be half ag much as the widow gave, for she gave, you remember, all that she had, even all her living." The man was quite embarrassed by the proposition, but he was not the first person who had tried to shelter himself behind the widow's mi, But it is a dangerous refuge, eration of the ministers, the Daily Times. i == We Page It is the aim of The Times to devote this page every Sat- urday to matters concerning the churches and the religious life of the community.

Clarence rr for Commission on Evangelism of: Feders/ Council of the Churches of Christ in America, Coorg 1953 - 1 ic for the Week T AND MY HOME" Memory . Verse for Sunday "For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother" (Mark 3:35) (Read: Luke 10:38 to 42.) MEDITATION: So Jesus adopts himsclf into every Christian family and makes our homes His own. The privacy of our homes is the more sacrel because {it Includes Him, The home in Bethany was a favored retreat of bur Lord. He was more than an honored guest there, He was one of the family. Apparently it was there He elected to spend His last Sabbath on earth. This is for me a very precious day because I can spend it at home with my own dear ones in the most delightful intimacy. Here love reigns supreme. Here faith" has its perfect fruitage for we can trust each other completely. Here we re- veal ourselves as we never do else- whre. There is no pretending here-- it would be useless as well as dis- loyal. We know each other as we know nobody else. We know each other's faults but behind them we perceive an inexpressible loveliness, SLE 'circle complete. In this comforting seclusion I am at rest, Here if anywhere in this troubled world there is peace, Let me make the most of this day of sa- cred privilege in the sweetest com- panionship life affords, There are the empty chairs too--Ilet them be occupied by the vanished ones who live forever in my heart though I see them in the flesh no more. We will speak of thenr to-day as though they were but temporarily absent-- which in very truth they are. In spirit they are here as in spirit the Master also is here making the PRAYER: My God and Father who has appointed to me my place and work in the world and hast also given me a secure refuge from the storm in this home of mine. I thank Thee for this Lofd's Day which closes the door behind me and the hopes which sustain me. And I pray that Thou wilt give me grace to improve the day, both for myself and for my dear ones; that no unkind or care- less word of mine bring a pain to these loving hearts.

True Ministry We had the scntence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raiseth the dead (2 Cor, 1:9). These are weighty words for all Christ's servants; but we must be His servants in reality, in order to enter into their deep significance. If we are content to live a life of indolene and ease, a life of self- seeking and self-pleasin,, it is im- possible for us to understand such words, or indeed to enter into any of .hose intense exercises of soul through which Christ's true-heart- ed servants and faithful witnesses in all ages have been called to pass. We invariably find that all those who have been most used of God in public have gone through deep waters in secret. It is as the sen- tence of death is written practic- ally upon self, that the power of resurrection-life in Christ shines out, Thus Paul could say to the Corinthians, "Death. worketh in us; but iffe in you," Death working in te poor earthen vessel, but streams of life, heavenly grace, and spirit- ual power flowing into these to whom he ministered, This, we may depend upon fit is the true secret of all effective min- istry. It is an easy matter to talk about ministry; to set up to be min- isterg.of Christ; but, oh, how has the rofessing church departed from the divine reality of ministry! Alas! the heart sinks at the bare thought of it. Where are the Pauls, the Gideons, and the Joshuas? Where are the deep heart-search- ings and profound soul exercises which#4bave characterized Christ's servants in other days? We are flip- pant and wordy shallow and emrp- ty, If-sufficient and self indul- gent. Need we wonder at the small results. How can we expect to see life working in others, when we know so little about deat work- ing in us? May that eternal Spirit stir us all up, and work in us a more pow- erful sence * what it is to be the o-hearted, single-eyed, devoted g-rvants of the Lord Jesus Christ, ---C, H, M, GRACE Lutheran Church Sunday, February 24 WELCH'S PARLOURS ).30 a.m.--~Sunday School. 10.30 a m,.- Public Worship 7.30 p.m.--Evening Service. dev, A.
