Show Third Presbyterian Omrch llth East and 17th. South C. K. Naffsiger, Pastor Services will again be resumed on next Sunday morning at 11 a. m. with the pastor occupying the pulpit and worshipers returning return-ing to their places in the pews. Several Sundays in another places and other churches usually brings any regular church goer gladly back to his own place of accustomed accus-tomed fellowship and worship. Which is of course an invitation to every Christian to have his own church, a ''home for the soul" lest he lose altogether the offered and continual grace of God given in communal worship. A dozen or more young people from the Third Church left on Monday morning for Mt. Pleasant, Pleas-ant, Utah, where the Utah Conference Con-ference Institite opened for ten days of Bible training and study in Christian living and 'Thinking Presbyterian, Methodists and Episcopalians cooperate in this annual project. Sessions are held ' in the buildings and on the ground of the .Wasatch-Logan Academy, 1 al institution to which large num-l num-l bers of youth from Utah come for ' preparatory, Christian training 1 during the Fall, Winter and ' Spring months- I Young peop'le of America are . pondering the message of Pres- ident Roosevelt to the 16th anni-i anni-i versary of the International Soc-. Soc-. iety of Christian Endeavor ot Atlantic City. Urging the Ameri-. Ameri-. can people to work and pray for , an International order in which ; the spirit of Christ shall rule, he . said ''Only in union shall we find strength to combat the menace which threatenes free people ev-i ev-i erywhere the tyranny of force , over the lives and consciences of i men." 1 Representing the Prostestant ! churches of America on the cur : rent Warner Brothers production. ; "One Foot in Heaven" is the Rev. 1 Dr. Norman Vincent Peale, pastor of the Marble Collegiate Church of New York City. Dr. Peale says that this picture is strong, rugged rug-ged and true to life of a typical Prostestant minister with all the pathos and comedy of nig career. This picture will co-star Frederick Freder-ick March, son of Presbyterian elder and Martha Scott, grand niece of a Church of Christ minister, min-ister, and will depict the story of a Methodist minister. Morale in European prison camps is higher than in the last war, reports Dr. W. O. Strong, secretary of the Baptist World Alliance, due in some part at least to the program of the churches in providing recreational, recreation-al, aducational and religious Dro-grams Dro-grams for the men. Three millions in Europes prison camps have recently been provided with bibles. In other parts of the world the bible or some portion of it is now available, thanks to the world's Bible societies, to about 95 persons per-sons out of every hundred, a remarkable re-markable achievment of translation trans-lation and distributing. |
