ALL FOR THE CHURCH 'The Church is the greatest factor on earth for the building of character and good citizenship. It is a storehouse of spiritual values. Without a strong Church, neither democracy nor civilization can survive. There are four sound reasons why every person should attend services regularly and support the Church. They are: (1) For his own sake. (2) For his children's sake. (3) For the sake of his community and nation. (4) For the sake of the Church itself, which needs his moral and material support. Plan to go to church regularly and read your Bible daily. Day Book Chapter Verses Sunday John 19 2842 Monday John 1-26 Psalms 1-12 22-83 169-176 81.38 It is not strange that someone chose this lonely spot to erect a reverent memorial.
