CHURCH NOTICES IT is with a profound sigh of relief that we see many of the air-raid shelter trenches being filled in, and the road obstables removed, and that very irksome blackout restriction lifted, yet it seems only , ft very short time ago that a gloomy foreboding filled our hearts. We were hastily preparing these same precautions against the invasion of a barbarious and merciless enemy which was swooping down the peaceful Pacific with alarming successes. Stories of untold brutality and cruelty of their tactics wore reaching us. Singapore, our stronghold, had fallen, and we felt that only a miracle could save our little Island Home. In a church in Auckland (and this applied to most of the churches) on the first Sunday after the bombing of Pearl Harbour, many hundreds of people attended, and partook of the Lord's Supper, the same date a year after, the number was about half, while in the same church on the date of 19-11 the number was only 5. A lady was giving the, workmen a Jug of tea as they bent to their job of fiiling-in the unsightly air-raid shelters in Green Lane, and she said: "I am very grateful to see this being done, but I shudder a*, the complacency and apathy with which we accept our mercies—this should riot have been done without a special day of thanksgiving. It reminds me of -when our Lord walked upon the earth, when He healed the 10- lepers, one returned to thank Him. and Jesus said "Were there not 10 cleansed? bat where are the 0? There are not found that returned and give glory to God. save this stranger." Easter has been, and to most it has meant plans for pleasure, and yet it stands for so much, our Lord's betrayal and His crucifixion, yet, at a recent meeting of the Borough Council of a small town, a resolution was passed that all picture theatres and billiard saloons be opened on Good Friday. Oiks gentleman, on behalf of those who remember our Lord's Passion, opposed the resolution, but it was carried. ... Now NeW Zealanders (.and our visitors), especially you. young people, do not let us wait till calamity overtakes us to bring tis to our kne«s, and offer a prayer, riot only for the freedom we have so far enjoyed, but also for our loved manhood, some of whom are languishing in concentration camps,, sighing for the war to cease. God, although merciful and loving, tells us in His own words that Ho is a Jealous God, and He is not mocked. Psalm 145/18-20: The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon Him—in truth. He will fulfil, the desire of them that fear Him. Ho also will hear their cry, and will save them. The Lord preserveth all them that love him. but all the wicked will He destroy. He also tells us if we will acknowledge Him He will acknowledge us, but if we deny Him He will deny us before the Angels in Heaven. May 1 say, at 0 o'clock in the evening, when we are given the two minutes for silent prayer, let it be a real, and fervent lifting of the heart to God. and He will reward us openly. GWEN 11A RE.
