afieporter LBGT lope Millbrook 87-j Churcn of your erals Thui‘sday, February 2], 1957 Sunday Morning At St. Andrew’s In his series of talks to the children on the different parts of the church the Rev. Francis Chisholm told of the commun- ion table. The communion table was, he said, the worship: centre. It took us back to the’ l'pper Room where Jesus first broke the bread and gave it and the communion wine to hisg disciples saying -“Do this in? remembrance of me”. The; Bible. the centre of worship, was on this table, except when the table was being used 'for communion. The offerings re- ceivvd for the extension of God’s work were placed upon this table which was the symbol of our faith. For the text of his sermon Mr. Chisholm took the sixth ver; of Psalm 95 “0 come let us- worship and bow dOWn, let us: kneel before the Lord our maker”. It was necessary he said In re-discover the meaning of worship. He quoted the vex-so “Some go to church just for a walk, some go to church just for a talk, some go to sit and nod. and very few to worâ€" ship God”. There were no people no matv‘ ter how primitive without some! religion. Some worshipped the; sun. the streams, the wind or the totem pole. Whatever the object of his worship man was incurably and instinctively re-; ligious. For the christian. God? was fully revealed in Jesus; Christ. The church is not the only place in. which Christ can' reveal himsself, but it is the= house set apart for worship. Some may say “I worship God under the blue dome of heaven”. The church is still the place where we can gatherl for fellowship as a family to' worship together. In smalli country church or the great; cathedral worshippers meet as a great w orldiwide family. We remember the promise "where two or three are gathered to- gether (in prayer) there am I in the midst”. It is possible to come Sunday after Sunday, seeing the same faces and becoming so ac- cuszomed to the form of wor- ship that the inward meaning is forgotten; We must re-discover the meaning of worship. Public worship is a power; house. The first part of the~ service is a preparation to the! approach and mood of the attitude of worship. In the! first prayer we come with awe. to worship and to praise God. . We ask for forgiveness for ouri Sins. and receive The assuraneej “Thy sins are forgiven thee”. ; We thank God for What he has given. the fellowship of the} church and the scripture.

Holmes, Port ? Hope, Inspector of Public 3 Schools met with the Board for ‘ the first time since his appoint- ; ment to this Inspectorate. Mr. jHolmes expressed his pleasure 2’ at meeting the members of the g Board, and while he said he felt !that. he was still just getting ! acquainted in the various school f district‘s he was very willing to Ehelp where he could. Mr. P. ‘Hamilton, Principal was also :present, and problems relating 'to enrollment and accommoda- tion were discussed with Mr. Holmes. In 1951 the enroll- _‘ ment was 92 which was increas- ed to 153 in 1956. This is followed by the wor- ship of giving in the offering. The offering is placed on the holy table as a symbol of our- selves offered to Christ. Then after the saying of the Lord ’3 prayer the minister blesses the, people and there is a pause, a silence for personal dedication. “Lord, now lettest thy servant depart in peace”. \Vhat about the otlher six days of the week? The christian faith is not for Sunday alone, but for every day and for every man. How many open the Bible and really pray in a week day? How many take Christ out of. the church with them and into their home? When this is done worship becomes a vital thing, a force that changes lives and helps to change the world. “0 come let us wor- ship and bow down”. ~D.i.
