"IF ONLY WE WOULD LISTEN"
The Easter message of our Bishop has gone far afield. In the "West Coast Churchman," the Rev. D. D. Thorpe, vicar of All Saints, Hokitika, writes: —
The Bishop of Waiapu m his Easter message urging a re-awaken-ing m New Zealand to develop a better humanity, is reported to have said that m N.Z. laziness, self satisfaction, resentment of criticism by strangers and hypocrisy were glaring national faults.
Ch! If only we would listen and take notice of the truth when it is put before us. Let us m this parish recognise OUR faults and deal with them m a Christian-like manner.
