Sermon Theme at Final One of Union Holy Week Services. The last of the union devotional ser- vices held this week by the Church of the Good Shepherd, Trinity Methodist Episcopal, the Second Congregational, Central Baptist and Broadway Con- gregational churches took place in Broadway church on Friday evening. All five pastors were present and- the church choir led the singing. A fervent prayer was offered by Rev. H. J. Wyckoff, pastor of the Second ckurch, and, following the anthem, Rev. Joseph F. Cobb, pastor of the Church of the Good Shepherd, read the scripture lesson. TRev. Edward S. ‘Worcester, pastor of the church,- was the preacher upon the thefit ctified and Sent, taking for hist€xt John 17: 17-19, “Ae thou didst send me into the world, even 80 send 1 them into the world. And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth.” Rev. Mr. Worcester said that words fail to set forth what we see always in the life of Jesus. There is nothing else that takes the breath of our world quite like self sacrifice. Will the ideal of self sacrifice work all through men’s lives? The world says no, sald the speaker, 2 the world in a sense.is right, for ill not work all through men's lives unless there is more than one man who will try‘it. Men and women in life are uncenvincing illus- trations of God's way. Lifetafter’life professing to be His, is unconvincing. ‘Why is not His self sacrifice more con- sistently reproduced? It ie not because the times have o changeJ: for the worse that the spirit of Jesus is not feasible, and it is not because times have so changed for the better that the 8pirit of Jesus is no longer needed. It is becanse we are not sanctified as He was. It was not for merit 'that Jesus sanctified Himself, for Fe pays: “For their sakes I sanctify Myself.” Can we honestly rejoice.in what He did for humanity and then turn our backs on Him? No, we must meake His hopes our. hopes, His task our task. EAST SIDE ITEMS, Guests for the Easter Season—Twe Exciting Baseball-Games, Mrs. Harold R. Barstow and son Ellison are the guests of Mrs. M.
