II t h p r a n ! Church's Walther League spent several hours working on the new manger scene, recently erected on the church property. B.U Thompson, president, and the other members decided late last summer that this would be a good- service project for the group. With the help of some life s:r.e drawings by Mrs. E. Fog elstrom, they were able to cut out and nail together some very modernistic figures. A smaller group of these young people then painted them with white paint twice and put a fin al coat of fluorescent paint on them. This makes them rather easy to notice. The set is not finished yet even though the group has com pleted Joseph, Jesus' bed, Mary and the Stable. Next year they hope to add to this scene. Pastor Charles Nenow com ments: "These projects are good for the young people, not only be cause they beautify the church and teach our people bow to work with each other, but be cause they help - to f inalty see the real reason behind our ac tion. "We came to the decision that the real reason for making this scene was to draw as mucTi at tention as possible to the fact that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came to earth as a human being to work God's plan for the eternal salvation of all men." "We hope that this happens as people view this upon entering and leaving PlatUmouth." Elmwood Churches ELMWOOD (Special) Church notes: Christian Rev. Bavls' Ser mon topic was "I Saw a Star."
