THE COVINGTON NEWS
A meeting will be at Ousley
Chapter on September 28 at 10;30
am.
Mrs. John Booth told of the
new circle which met the organ
ized in August. A name is yet to
be chosen.
A good attendance was an
nounced for the Children's Divi
sion of the Fellowship. Mrs. Mal
com, Mrs. Prince and Mrs. Booth
are the leaders.
This concluded the business
and the program committee took
charge. Mrs. S. L. Waites, led in
prayer after which “Spirit of
God” hymn gave the background
for the theme of the program.
Mrs. Prince gave the devotional
and introduced the new program
book for the year “The Islands
Await His Word” and the theme
of the study is ‘The: Spirit of
Christ — For all of Life.”
The worship center was a vivid
devotional in its own way. On
a large table the world, depicted
by a globe, was brightened by a
light. Over and above’ the entire
world the figure of Christ stood
with welcoming arms outstretch
ed. On either side of the world
sheaves of wheat represented the
abundant life. Beyond in the dis
tance were three islands awaiting
his word. (1) First were the geo
graphical islands that need to
hear of Christ; (2) Second were
man-made islands such as the
people cut off by the iron cur
tain who hunger for the gospel,
also our self-made islands where
we isolate ourselves not caring
for our neighbor; (3) the island of
spiritual growth represented by
a figure alone in a chair. Bible
in hand, here we build our
strength for the battle of life,
listening, learning and loving.
Mrs. Prince closed with a pray
er.
Mrs. W. C. Wright, district pres
ident, gave a talk on our aims
and goals for this year. She be
gan by reading a “Prayer of St.
Francis” to emphasize the yearn
ing for peace of mind which is
sought for so much today. The
goals of our society for this year
are as follows:
Personal Committeement —
each woman should dedicate her
self anew to Christ.
Accept responsibility — every
member should help promote the
work and take a part in it.
Interpret the place of educa
tion. The mission schools need
our help and support to strength
en them.
Recruit Missionaries -r- Make
known to all the need for more
workers.
Create Fellowship — work in
harmony and love with our
friends and fellowman.
Take a stand — identify our
selves with Christ and stand up
for Him.
. Speak for Christ — We must act
the Christian as well as speak
for Christ.
As the last command Christ
gave to the disciples was “Go Ye
mto all the world and preach
the gospel,’’ we too must be a
bout our fathers business. Mav we
press ever onward to the Goal.
