LEMON PUNCH or GAUCHO SANDWICH CREMES By BUZZ ALDRIN Second man to walk on the moon For several weeks prior to the scheduled lift-off of Apollo 11 back in July, 1969. the pastor of our church. Dean Woodruff, and I had been struggling to find the right symbol for the first lunar landing. We wanted to express our feeling that what man was doing in this mission transcended electronics and computers and rockets.

Dean often speaks at our church, Webster Presbyterian, just outside of Houston, about the many meanings of the communion service. "One of the principal symbols." Dean says, "is that God reveals Himself in the common elements of everyday life." Traditionally, these elements are bread and wine common foods in Bible days and typical products of man's labor. One day while I was at Cape Kennedy working with the sophisticated tools of the space effort, it occurred to me that these tools were the typical elements of life today. I wondered if it might be possible to take communion on the moon, symbolizing the thought that God was revealing Himself there too, as man reached out into the universe. For there are many of us in the NASA program who do trust that what we are doing is part of God's eternal plan for man.

I spoke with Dean about the idea as soon as I returned home, and he was enthusiastic. "I could carry the bread in a plastic packet, the way regular inflight food is wrapped. And the wine also there will be just enough gravity on the moon for liquid to pour." I had a question about which scriptural passage to use. Which reading would best capture what this enterprise meant to us? I thought long about this and came up at last with John 15:5. It seemed to fit perfectly.

I wrote the passage on a slip of paper to be carried aboard Eagle along with the communion elements. Dean would read the same passage at the service held back home that same day which would be Sunday, July 20, the day when Neil Armstrong and I were scheduled to be on the surface of the moon. Then we were launched on our flight from Cape Kennedy. The Saturn 5 rocket gave us a rough ride at first, but the rest of the trip was smooth. On the day of the moon landing, we awoke at 5:30 a.m., Houston time.

Neil and I separated from Mike Collins in the command module. Our powered descent was right on schedule, and perfect except for one unforeseeable difficulty. The automatic guidance system would have taken Eagle to an area with huge boulders. Neil had to steer Eagle to a more suitable terrain. With only seconds worth of fuel left, we touched down at 3:30 p.m.

Now Neil and I were sitting inside Eagle, while Mike circled in lunar orbit, unseen in the black sky above us. In a little while after our scheduled meal period, Neil would give the signal to step down the ladder onto the powdery surface of the moon. Now was the moment for mmunion. "So I unstowed the elements in their flight packets. I put them and the scripture reading on the little table in front of the abort guidance-system computer.

The I called back to NASA headquarters in Houston. "Houston, this is Eagle. This is the LM pilot speaking. I would like to request a few moments of silence. I would like to invite each person listening in, wherever and whomever he may be, to contemplate for a moment the events of the past few hours and to give thanks in his own individual way." For me this meant taking communion.

In the radio blackout I opened the little plastic packages which contained bread and wine. I poured the wine into the chalice our church had given me. In the one-sixth gravity of the moon the wine curled slowly and gracefully up the side of the cup. It was interesting to think that the very first liquid ever poured on the moon, and the first food eaten there, were communion elements. And so, just before I partook of the elements, I read the words which I had 'Chosen to indicate our trust a LirtiuiMiiii Assorted Flavors 12 oz pkg Miracle Whip pkg of 168 count i WW 6 oz 4 Progresso Imported Tomato Paste cans DAIRY DELIGHTS mini-priced in our dairy case quart jar 49' 2W.25' 5czcai39e Stop Mayonnaise 60 Coronet Napkins Bay Pride Cocktail Shrimp Campbell's Soup chicken noodle NO PHOSPHATES IkflO EflZYMEsV 510kQCc 7 3tVtot4i an I Stop Shop Chunk Light Tuna inoii Axelrod's Sour Cream Kraft Natural Swiss Cheese Slices Stop Shop Soft Margarine Cracker Barrel Mild Cheese Sticks Stop Shop Cream Cheese pint container 39e 8-ozpkg 49' 10 oz pkg 59 2 3 oz OCc pkgs 10 Jiffy Pie Crust Mix Stop Shop Spaghetti Elbow Macaroni Stop Shop Baked Beans Chef Boy-Ar-Dee Beefaroni Stop Macaroni Cheese White or Yellow Random Weight ib 91' Stop Shop American Cheese 225' 1Mj19C 21S43B 31 15 0Z $4 cans 2I-H9CC cans Kraft American Cheese White or Yellow Slices Pasturized Process 59' 12 ozpkg Spaghetti Meatballs chef boyar dee Frozen foods all delicious and mini-priced BRILLIANT Cooked Shrimp PERX Coffee Lightener Stop Shop White Potatoes A Dole Pineapple sliced, crushed or chunk Gallon Stop Shop Bleach MRS PAULS Shrimp Cakes 2PVezs99 3 1 plastic joe 39' 59 16 oz $1 79 Reynolds Wrap Aluminum Foil 8 oz Pkg i containers Stop Shop Grapefruit Sections 41 Pollution of our nation's water supply Is an increasingly serious problem.
