CdNFIRMED LOCAL CLASSES. Preached Forceful Sermon at Union! Service on Faith. Upon his visit here Saturday and Sunday for confirmation before Eas- ter, Rt. Rev. Chauncey B.

At the service at Trinity church there was a congregation which filled the main part of the church, and Bish- | op Brewster delivered a sermon upon Faith that was given with character- istice forcefulness and practical appli- | cation to the Lenten season. Arch- deacon J. Eldred Brown was assisted in the service of evening prayer by | Rev, T, E. Calvert of Christ church and Rev. Johns Bohanan of St. An- Bishop Brewster spoke from the text, All things are possible to him that be- lieveth, and told his hearers that faith stood over against the fatalism that blamed upon heredity or environment | spirit assderting itself, claiming its birthright and its free- dom, It puts itself in line with the | push that means always some better | thing ahead. It enables man to grap- | ple bravely with what threatens to thwart his upward progress and makes these very things the rungs in the lad- der upwards. If yeu reach out to God, you will find he has reached out to you. The believing helps to make things come true. The believing helps to make the possible actual. Today in the deepest concerns of life, as we be- lieve so will it ‘be. TYou may have been getting into the current of fatal- ism or sin or bad habit, that is forg- ing fetters upon you. Lent is the time tc break these fetters, and all things are possible to him that believeth. Trust in God, then, enough at least to make a venture, and you will find God working in you hoth to will and to do. You may be a free man because you ought to be free; you can fight because you oughtt o fight, and you can win because Jesus in the agony of tempta- tion has fought his fight and won that you might win, and He says to-- night o that a man who will believe, All things are possible to im that be- lieveth. After the confirmation Bishop Brew- ster gpoke briefly to the class upon the significance of the rite, laying emphasis upon the fact that it was a confirma- tion for life, and not'for death alone, and urging the maintenance of a close relation with their Lord through the sacrament of Holy Communion.
