Mariner IV And Mankind The mission of I.rai-r-ier IV may not definitely answer '-ithe intriguing question of " whether life exists on Mars. But even so, the feat of sending an effective explor ing instrument across the in tervening millions of miles .between the earth and the ; outer space planet is one which almost staggers the imagination. That suca an 'instrument could reach target at' all is impressive. , Even more in comprehensible to the aver age mind is the fact that the vehicle could be controlled and directed over a span of some eight months and that, finally, it would be able to transmit picture signals across that vast span in the space of just twelve minutes, ,v-Such a feat must be cheer- - ing to even those dubious of , this country's scientific ca pabilities. But if man has the dem onstrated genius to reach ' back and forth in the uni ,verse, somehow it would seem he would be able to find a way for people and , . nations to live together on this little planet that's al . ready so familiar to all of us.

'Hurdle MY MINUTE WITH GOD By OLT5BOE MtLLEB, "Pa.Ior Chowan Methodist Charge "It is more blessed to give than to receive.' Acts 20:35. We are so prone, to think of what we can get that we fail to see the blessing' from giving. Our Lord makes a II very vital distinction be-1 tween men, classifying them on the basis of "finding andj losing" or "giving and get-1 ting." The world demands .to know, "How much do you fget?" 1 Christ is concerned with how much we give. 'This is a revolutionary prin ciple for the making and the marring of character and of destiny. In our political economy and in our busi ness life we keep in mind the question, what will I get. In our social life it is the same. In church life many use church privileges without supporting the pro gram. We demand or ex pect a place of leadership and arenot willing to co operate. Remember, what "Ifoxi keep you lose, but what you gave you have. Stair Lord: Help us to be more willing to give than to receive. Amen.

Our lesson today is coh cerned with Christian growth through, service.' and our most inspiring- ekarnjle ' of service to humanity is Christ's death for us on the cross. On the. cross Christ was doing what , he had. to do. ' Love left him , no alter native, i We are therefore faced ' with this Question.: Does this overwhelming -sac rifice,' prompted- by ',a great love and concern lor otners, leave us, as Christians, 'with any alternative but to dedi cate our lives in' service both to God and to man- knd7, .... . ' ' We ' often think of wor ship as a period of medi tation, adoration and self- dedication. We too often fail to grasp the fact thut worship should also be ac tive. By our deeds we can also worship-and often sucn worship is more meaning ful, because it is creative. New Testament Christian ity differed creatly from Old Testament concepts. Where the Old Testament writers insisted that God - was a iealous God, the New Tes tament writers preached that God was -a God of love1 and divine compassion. . And it was in this era that Chris tians looked after 'one an- III other in brotherly love and concern; they did not limit II their ministrations to renow Christians alone every man who was in need, physically or spiritually, to them repre sented a Christian obportuh- ity. As, indeed, it should to us : today if we are to be worthy of our religious con cepts. " . , , ' There is a heartwarming customi here in America, that is not demonstrated in many other lands. The family who loses a loved one finds neighbors who may , have never been particularly close 1 1 to , them i before,' rallying round with many comforting words,, a staggering array of home-cooked , meals and a generous taking charge of all the endless chores that have to be taken care of on such an occasion despite' the fact that, the bereaved ones are often mentally and emotion ally , unable to . cope wnn what must: be (Jose.

Jtust stopped by to have a Cup of coffee with you" as sumes significance and im portance to the recipient of such thoughtfuinoss far oe yond the small amount of ef fort the act entailed on the donor's part. Such acts are acts of Christian service in God's eyes just as much as large donations of time and money to His Church. Some times even more so, for such kindness is prompted by the spirit, and the spirit is tne servant of God. As a fam ous novelist once said: . "No one is useless in this world, who lightens the , burden of it for ahy one else." And service 'rendered in Variably brintfs its own re ward. We are the better for having extended a helping hand to someone less fortun ate than ourselves. For. it is through service to : others that we mature and grow as individuals. Unselfish. . ser vice throws wide the win- ' dows of our innermost be ' ing to God; it enables his Spirit to come in. , ( And what better thanks giving offering can we make to the Lord, who created us in His image, than to return all that we are to Him, dedi cated to doing His will? r "t""" t t f t ' - If ii t J it .3, aeJ tssel rJ v j-J J XL ..J-- --.-.
