Mrs. Agnes Cowling led in prayer for our Missionary work at home, and abroad. The Offering was received by Mrs. Florence McQuarrie and Mrs. Marjorie Ferguson wbo gave the Offertory prayer. "Thine Be The Gl'ory" was then sung, and Mrs. Audrey Giichrist introduced our speaker for the evening, Mrs. Lucille Gracey, from Toronto. Mrs. Gracey and ber busband bhost the Overseas Missionary Fellowsbip Home in Toronto at the present time. Mrs. Gracey went out to Singapore as a nurse under this mission and met and marrîed ber husband where for some years they, served the Lord. Our Easter theme continued as Mrs. Gracey presented Jesus Christ as our Living Hope, -and Hie is Lord over Deatb as He bas taken the sting of deatb away. He triumpbed over Deatb, and eacb one of us, can know and experience new life wben we accept His forgive- ness tbrougb His death upon the Cross, and it is oniy then we become ALIVE in our Living Lord. What a blessed relationsbîp is ours wben He is living in our hearts and enables, us to bave victory over sin! With the Communist take- over in the Far East in 1950, the work of the China Inland Missioncame to an end, and the directors of the Mission looked for new horizons to conquer with the Gospel and the Overseas Missionary Fellowship came into being reaching oui to Japan, Taiwan, Korea, Cambodia, Thailand and Malaysia witb one tbousand missionaries now working there. Even with i M a .1 mighty working of the Spirit of the Lord. In Thailand there are three hospitals and Leprosy clinics. In January of this year there was a terrible accident in which some of the doctors were killed with their families, but througb this the Lord bas worked, as many realized their Hope is truly in the Lord, and others found their faith in Christ for the first time as there is life in Christ after death, and still others have found the cost of being a discipleý of Jesus Christ. In Malaysia the people who are Malay cannot hear the Gospel1, but the missionaries are able to minister to the Chinese and Indian people. Our speaker and. her husband were called to minister to a Chinese Church where the people spoke English. Mrs. Tan went to this church and was the secretary. $be had a pagan background, and worshipped idols. She heard about Mr. John Sung who was a very well educated man and had written a book--previously to this he had lost his faith, but then he had been restored and through his testimony Mrs. Tan came to know the Lord. The Lord blessed ber with five iovely daughters, and because of His wondrous provision during the war years they are all well and witnessing for the Lord at home and in other countries. Mrs. Gracey showed us a short coloured film with a casette tape of a home in Japan with their usual shrine. There was the Mother, Father, daughter and son. One morning the Mother turned on the radio and heard the message of the Gospel and at once contacted the station for more knowledge and also met other Christians. She accepted Christ, and started to attend Church, and later on took her daughter. Her husband was very angry when he found out and he forbade her to go again, but through prayer came to accept their way of life. There is a real hunger in the hearts of these people today, and our task at. hand is to get out the Word through our Missionaries and to disbribute as much Christian literature as possible, but mostly through prayer and making the Word of God available in their own languages. Mrs. Eileen Noble thanked our speaker and our soloist who then sang "When I Survey the Wondrous Cross." "Look Ye Saints the Sight is Glorlous" was sung and Rev. Gilchrist pronounced the Benediction. Literature on the work of the Overseas Missionary Fellowship was available for all to learn more, about their ministry in the Far East.
