Crossroads Methodist Church
“and He said to them, ‘Do
not be amazed; you seek
Jesus of Nazareth who was
crucified. He has risen, He is
not here; see the place where
they laid Him.” (Mark 16:6)
This is the week which
Christians acorss the years
have referred to as Holy
Week. During this time we
pause to think about the
events in the life of Jesus
Christ that led up to his
crucifixion on Friday of this
week and beyond the
crucifixion to his
resurrection on Easter
morning.
On Monday of the last
week in His earthly life and
ministry, Jesus returned to
Jerusalem from Bethany
and cleansed the temple of
the buyers and sellers who
had set up business there. On
Tuesday Jesus again visited
the temple, but this time he
taught and answered the
questions of those who
gathered to listen. On
Wednesday he remained
withdrawn in the quietness
of Bethany preparing
himself for the agony which
he knew awaited him.
On Thursday He went
again to Jerusalem. That
evening in an upper room he
shared a meal with His
disciples. During the meal he
instructed his disciples to
continue to gather and share
a time together which would
be “In Remembrance” of
Him. later that night he was
betrayed into the hands of
the ruling officials while he
prayed in the Garden of
Gethsemane. He was
arrested and later taken to
his trial.
Macon Tech Offers Wide
Selection Os New Courses
The Distributive
Education Service of the
Macon Area Vocational
Technical School will be
offering a wide selection of
courses during the last
quarter of the school year.
The subjects in Distributive
Education are of particular
interest to employers and
employees in the fields of
Sales, Marketing and related
businesses.
In the announcement of the
schedule for April, May and
June, J. D. Anderson, D. E.
Coordinator listed some 60
courses available in the
evening program. Many of
these may be requested by
the indivudual employer, as
“in house’’ courses for
specific training of
management, supervisory,
or employee level personnel.
An example of ’“in house”
courses could be a large
retail store training sales
supervisors in a new credit
procedure. The business
house and it’s individual
equipment becomes the
classrbom.
Any employer in the
middle Georgia area may
schedule "in house” courses,
Anderson said. A telephone
call to the school is all that is
required to obtain
professional assistance with
any education or training
need.
Courses listed by Anderson
as ready for immediate
enrollment are: First Aid
Training - This course is the
approved Multi-Media
training required by the
Health and Safety Act
(Federal 1971; - (Georgia
1972) and requires one 8 hour

Episcopal Church at which
ministers from various
churches in the community
will give short meditations
on the Seven Last Words
By early Friday morning,
the trial having been com
pleted, he was sentenced to
die by crucifixion. In spite of
the cruelness of his death,
God caused this day of
crucifixion to become a day
of atonement (at-one-ment).
When he provided the way
for man to be rightly related
to God. On the hill outside the
city of Jerusalem God’s
great love for his children
was shining extremely
bright.
But the ultimate victory of
God over man’s sin was won
three days later. Saturday of
that week was silent. The
figure who one day before
had been hanging on the
cross, was now in the grave.
Many felt that they had
heard that last of him. But on
the morning of the third day,
some of the women who had
been followers of this one
called Jesus, made their way
to the grave. When they
arrived the stone was rolled
away from the door. They
looked inside and the grave
was empty. They saw
standing nearby a young
man (or an angel) who said
to them, “He is not here, he
is risen.” The Christian
church across the centuries
has proclaimed that he is
alive and lives forever.
“Low in the grave he lay,
Jesus my savior; waiting the
coming day, Jesus my Lord:
Up from the grave he arose
with a mighty triumph o’er
his foes; He arose a victor
from the dark domain, and
he lives forever with his
saints to reign. He arose! He
arose! Hallelujah! Christ
arose!”

by General Telephone

members of the Gold Kist,
Inc., division of Farmers
Mutual Exchange joined in
with the Lions and Sen.
Talmadge in the discussion.
Sen. Talmadge is Chairman
of the Agriculture Com
mittee, and is an active
member of the Lions In
ternational.
During the thirty minute
period, ten questions were
asked the Senator relating to
crime, welfare, taxes,
agriculture, busing, schools,
U.S. Department of
Agriculture research, and
foreign aid. Senator
Talmadge very satisfac
torily answered each
question.
He expressed his ap
preciation to the Perry Lions
Club for the privilege of
talking to its members. He
said talking by telephone
was the next best thing to
being with the group in
person. He regretted that he
wasn’t able to be with the
group in person, but due to a
loaded schedule in
Washington his visits would
be curtailed for a while.
At the conclusion of the
discussion, he personally
thanked the Perry Lions in
general, Jack Akridge, Lions
Program Chairman, and
Kenneth Aldridge, manager
of General Telephone of
Perry, for inviting him to
participate in the session.
After the program the
Perry Lions Club and Gold
Kist, Inc. members divided
and conducted the business
portion of their meeting.
