On Holy Thursday, April 5, the Communion wlll be offered In this church. There Is good reason whv it should be celebrated at this time. It be the anniversary of the night in ·" ·bleb it was ~gun by Jesus. It will be the regular Easter Season Communion which no confirmed member should miss. It will be the first communion of the Catechetlcal Class. It will be the time· when all new members received on Palm Sunday will commune. The Special Easter · Offering will be received on that evening. It Is hoped that it will amount to at least $1,000. In order that this may be easier of attainment, six men are pledging themselves to give $100 each. This leaves a balance ot $400 (or the rest oruie congregation to raise.

The first service is an early service at 6 a. m. The second service is a musical service and will be held at 8 p. m. Easter night. The offering at both of these services will be used to swell the the total of the Special Easter Offering. If you =-.re not able to attend on Holy Thursday, bring YQUr special offering on Easter Sunday. The Communion will not be c~lebrated on Eaf!ter day. The early service will commemorate . the resurrection of our Lord and Saviour. It is ftttlng that \V~ gather at this time to rejoice over the resurrection of our Lord. The women. on that first Easter morning, went to the tomb while it was yet dark. Upon the arrival of the dawn they met with rhe surprise of their lives. They were told, "He is risen." That will be the ~i~t of our mesRage on this Easter mornIng. Every thoughtful Christian will w~nt tn CPiebrate this early service. The §;unday school will meet at 10 :30 on Easter Sunday. This should mark the high point In Sunday school atendance ror the year. The little dime books will be tumed In on that day and it Is hoped that every one will be filled with shiny dimes. The morteY from this source will go Into the new building fund. The Luther league Is planning a buildIng fund of all their own. They have a novel Idea whereby they hope to raise this f~nd and It will not be a small fund either. Ow!_ng to the Holy Week services the regular Luther League meeting which should be held Fa1day evening April 6 will be postponed one week. The meeting will be at thP- church.
