Social Security Covers
Half Os Married Women
By Lee Wallio
Field Representative
Almost half of the married
women in America now
work in jobs covered by
Social Security.
Over 22 million married
women 47.1 per cent of
than have jobs outside
their homes compared to
43.6 per cent 10 years ago,
according to the U.S.
Department of Labor.
Nine out of 10 jobs are
covered by Social Security.
Working women build
Social Security disability,
survivors, retirement, and
Medicare protection for
themselves and their
families.
More married women
work now than in 1967
because families are
smaller and there are more
jobs for women and more
day-care facilities for
children.
Monthly Social Security
benefits can be paid to a
wife on her work record
even if her husband keeps
working.
And, if a woman has
worked long enough in jobs
covered by Social Security
and then retires, becomes
disabled, or dies, her
children can be paid
benefits on her record until
they are 18—or until 22 if
they are full-time students
in school and remain un
married.
Full Social Security
retirement benefits can
start when the worker is 65,
reduced benefits at 62.
Disability benefits can be
paid to workers under 65 and
their families when the
worker is disabled and not
expected to be able to do any
substantial work for a year
or more.
People retiring in 1977
generally can get Social
Security retirement
payments with as little as
6% years of work covered by
Social Security.
To get Social Security
disability payments,

covered by Social Security
with at least 5 years of it in
the 10 years before the
disability began.
Workers disabled before
31 may be eligible for
payments with less work
covered by Social Security,
depending on age.
Medicare starts for most
people at 65.
But disabled people under
65 can get Medicare if they
have been entitled to Social
Security disability benefits
for at least 24 consecutive
months.

Christopher Columbus had trouble recruiting sailors for his early voyages. Men were
afraid, but the bravest enlisted and sailed off to the wonders of a new world.
Most of us are afraid of the unknown. We have our qualms and doubts about a new job,
moving to a strange city, beginning a marriage, or simply facing the uncertainties of
tomorrow. We do not know what lies ahead, and we worry about being able to cope with it. In
this eoer-changing world, we instinctively yearn for that which does not change.
Whatever tomorrow brings, we can have the peaceful conviction that the lax of God for
His children is trustworthy and everlasting.
Discover an abiding security. Worship this Sunday.

STRUGGLING WITH DOUBT
International Sunday School Lesson
Scripture: Genesis 17:1-8, 15-19
By Mrs. Jesse Waller
All of ue, no doubt, know personally someone who is a
skeptic. He prides hinself on his skepticism. Some think
it is a mark of intelligence to question or doubt the reality
of God. Not so with those who have obeyed and stepped
out sometimes in the pitch darkness, on faith alone. Just
obeying, but not being able to see clearly the way ahead.
Twenty-four years have gone by since God called Abram.
These were exciting years for the traveling patriarch. God
continued his tremendous promises about this new nation.
The real test of Abram's faith came when he was almost one
hunched yews of age, and Sarah was ninety. When God prom
ised them a son, Abram just laughed. This is such a natural,
hummi reaction. We sometimes forget the almigfatineea of
God. We must constantly have fresh traisftiaions of confi
dence and faith.
Whan we realize, as Christian people, we me sometimes
prone to doubt, it makes us ■ crept*cent with those who con
stantly straggle with doubt mid fear.
GotTa promise to Abram is found inGenesis 18:3-8,‘1 will
multiply you exceedingly.” In these verses the Lard spells
out certain major aspects of the covenant that involved
Ahrma’s decendents, the promised laid of Canaan, and the
relriianahip between Abram and his people. What was
Abram’a response?
He fell on his foce, thus confessing his weakness and
sinfrilassa and complete unwerthineaa. This staid of humil
iation was the hallmark at Abram's walk with God. Ia our
tine confession of God’s wisdom mid power, we will find a
one for doubting-
To aianfr the nature at His promise to Atoms, God gave
him aaaw same, Abraham. Abram meant “exalted fairer."
Abraham means "father of a multitude.” The scope of God’s
proatiaa to Atoms seamed ironic since there was no heir in
sight. Many times we want to see, before believing, but with
God, all things are possible, in fulfilling His pirpoaea.
Atoalum was aahad not only to visualize an hair, hut to
mm heyond the bounds of physical limitations to succeed
ing gmmraioun.lt wonid bean “everlasting covenant.”
Thomas doahted, red had to see the scars ia Jasua’
lands, and threat his hand into the aca in Ida aide. Pstsr,
doubted whan he wee walking to Jesus oe the waer, when
ha took Mi eyes off the Lord, and looked a the anmy
waves. The resurrection was too big a concept for the dis
ciples to comprehend. Only when we loss a loved one can
we coma feHy foce to face with this gnat truth. Than we
an priaaawe of Hope and Faith.
