C. L. CARHEE, Pastor REV. J. W. GOODWIN, Asst We are thankful to have wor shipped on another Easter Sunday ... the day of the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. At 6:00) a. m. we had prayer and praise service. The dreary looking skies of the earlier part of the day did not alter our attendance nor our spirits of thankfulness for this day. While the pastor spoke to us, we reviewed, in our minds, a gain the fearless crucifixion of our Lord Jesus Christ. Rev. Carhee’s subject for Eas ter Sunday was “THE RESUR RECTION AND WHAT IT MEANS TO US” 1st Cor. 15,. Matt. 28- He so beautifully de cribed to us how Christ appeared before Pontius Pilate and how Pi late pleaded for Christ’s life but the Pharisee’s, through envy de manded His crucifixion. Rev. Carhee further related the sealing and guarding of His sepulchre, His Resurrection, His appearance to His own, that Christ sent His ] disciples to baptize and teach all nations, the worth of His Resur rection to us, We are risen with Him from a state of death in sin. In Him, our Lord Jesus Christ, is our Salvation. r onowmg tne sermon, we com muned together and extended the right hand of fellowship to each other.

Thelma Newte, Reporter. HOW TO OVERCOME THE OBSTACLES WHICH CAUSE MANY YOUNG PEOPLE TO AVOID PUBLIC PRAYER (MRS. RAYCHELLE CARHEE) Th<; place of prayer in the life of a church cannot he over-emphasized. My house, saith the Lord, shall he called of all nations, the house of prayer. There is all too little gen uine praying in our churches today. This is especially true in the case of Youth. What is responsible for this'.' Is it that Youth is not consecrated? Is it that he does not know the meaning of prayer or the value of prayer? In some instances, such is the case. There are a number of young, people in our churches who need to consecrate their lives to the servic of God. Without Consecration they cannot know the worth of prayer. On the other hand there are Youth who are consecrated and who do know the value of prayer, who nevertheless refrain from praying in the public. Why is this? What are those Obstac les that cause them to avoid public prayer? As I see them, they are: 1. Public Criticism. 2. Self-Consciousness. 3. False Conceptions of what con stitutes appropriate public prayer. . 4. Non-Practice. PUBLIC CRITICISM—Afraid of what the people will say or think. | Fear of ridicule and the like. Fear is of great benefit to mankind. It is not to be elided but rather to be controll ed and used constructively. For in stance, instead of fearing the critic ism of the public, let Y'outh fear the wasting of opportunity and failing to glorify God in the public. SELF-CONSCIOUSNESS— To over come it, one must become Christ-con scious. He promised never to leave us nor forsake us. So we may bodly say with the Apostle Paul “The Lord is ov helper". FALSE CONCEPTIONS OF WHAT CONSTITUTES APPOPRIATE PUB LIC PRAYER. What is prayer but an humble conversation with God, ask ing with the simplest of words for what we need and want, thanking Him in our own * individual way for His blessings? Let us study the simplicity of the Lord's prayer and let it be our daily guide in praying. NON-PRACTICE—If, in every home there were the family altar and if each child were called on to lead the amily in prayer, this problem of Non Practice could hardly exist. Other possible ways of solving this problem Are: a. For Sunday School and Union leaders to call on young people to pray from time to time. I). Persuading Youth to attend the prayer meetings and urging them to i ray. God said “What things so ever ye desire, when ye pray believe that ye •eceive them, and ye shall receive ' them.” We are all looking forward to | i better church of tomorrow. Only through prayer and more prayer will i t be attained. Y'outh must overcame these Obstacl es which cause them to avoid public prayer. If you desire, ask for more i'aith, more power atid more faith, uore power and more understanding. If you believe, you shall receive them Prayer is the Christian vital breath, the Christian native air. His watchword at the gates of death, He enters heaven with prayer.

H. H. SCHAULAND, Pastor On April 27th of this year some 4,700 congregations of the Mis souri Synod Lutheran Church will celebrate the 100th annivers ary of its organization in Chicago in 1847. The organization of this church body was partly a protest to State control of the church in Germany and partly an attempt to establish a soundly Lutheran church in America. The German government 100 years ago at tempted to use the church as a means to unify the power of the state; as a result, a group of Sax ons emigrated to Missouri and became the nucleus from which I this church body grew. Headed j by Dr. C. F. W. Walther, this Synod took a definite stand by l which the old Lutheran confes .;m***mm sions, originating in the time of Martin Luther, were again made the basis of teaching and prac tice in the Lutheran Church in A merica. The phenomenal growth of this conservative body is reflected in the latest statistics. Organized in 1847 with 16 congregations, it now has almost 2 million adher ents and is the largest individual Synod of the Lutheran faith. The Missouri Synod believes in sound indoctrination. More than 1,000 congregations maintain their own full time Christian schools Shown above is Concor dia Theological Seminary, St. Lou -is, Mo., founded by the pioneers of the Missouri Synod in a log cabin in Perry County, Mo. This Seminary has grown to be the largest Lutheran Theological Sein inary in the world. Completed in 1926 at a cost of over a million dollars. This beautiful group of buildings is one of the show plac es of St. Louis. The Missouri Synod Lutheran Church is represented in north central Omaha by Hope Lutheran Church, 30th and Corby Sts. Dur ing the one year of its existence Hope Lutheran has enjoyed unus ual growth under God’s blessings. Its communicant membership is 30; its Sunday School enrollment of more than 50 children is in creasing almost every Sunday. Hope Lutheran extends a warm welcome to the people of this com munity to attend its services at 11 a. m Enroll your children in Sunday School next Sunday. Sun day School begins at 10 o’clock.
