"But to be an integrated being, whole, wholesome and content, man must understand his own being, the inseparable unity of his mind and body and his oneness with the source of his being God, who is Love."

James Oliver will deliver the first massage of three dealing with evangelism at Sunday's 11 a.m. worship hour at Trinity Presbyterian church. In announcing his topic as "Speak to This People" he said he will be concerned with the Pibli-cal caricature of Ezekiel and his witness to the peoples of his land. "The concern of the sermon will be directed toward our understanding of faith and witness as we envision the life of this great prophet," he declared. "So many times we do not understand that one cannot be an effective witness if he is a sort of echo board off which the word of God bounces without ever having an effect in his own life.

This problem is a concern today as it was in the time of Ezekiel," the pastor emphasized. The Sunday evening church service will be a continuation of character studies of the Old Testament, with Samson to be the subject. The sermon is entitled "In Search of Glory."

Robinson sermon in the Community church service at 306 Mis sion street Sunday at 11 o'clock. "The story of Rip Van Winkle is entertaining as a simple legend," says Dr. Robinson, "but it has a deeper significance In that it shows man's desire to escape from the world around him, even to giving up 20 years of his life. "The Bible speaks of men weighed down with and we see persons retiring behind do-not-disturb signs today rather than awaken to our responsibili ties. We run to the psychiatrist because we are asleep spiritually.

Is the top. lc Rabbi Julius Leibert has cho sen for tonight's 8:30 o'clock Sab bath eve services at Temple Beth El. Discussing his topic he notes that there is an old saying "of the dead nothing but good should be said." He points out that behind this saying is the spirit of gallantry. "But gallantry," he says, "has often proved to be inimical to truth.

Certainly the dead cannot defend themselves and therefore should be soared. "But for that matter neither could they defend themselves when they were alive and engaged lawyers, advocates and counsel. "Therefore it is much more important to lay emphasis upon the truth even when cynics like Pilate may snicker and say 'What is the Rabbi Leibert emphasizes that truth always can be established and should be established.

The pastor said it is very provocative to note that Jesus Christ insisted that, "By their fruits ye shall know them." We must then earnestly examine our lives in this light to see if we are bearing fruit of the Spirit of the living Christ, he emphasized.

Know thyself, and God will supply the wisdom and the occasion for a victory over evil. Clad in the panoply of Love, human hatred cannot reach you. The cement of a higher humanity will unite all interests in the one divinity." Calvary Rector To Discuss True Picture Of Man The Sunday sermon theme at Calvary Episcopal church's 11 a.m.

service of choral holy communion, "Skeleton in the Closet," sounds like a murder mystery novel title, but according to Rector Alexander Anderson this is not the case.

'The Early Church' To Be Discussed By Valley Pastor The scriptural meaning or concept of the church as ordained by God is virtually lost today, said Scotts Valley Baptist Pastor Glen-non Culwell in announcing his 11 o'clock Sunday morning sermon theme, "The Early Church." He says he will be dealing with the question.

"What should the individual's relation to the church be? Partial answer may be found by looking at the early church in Jerusalem before it had time to be tarnished by human hands, he stresses. Rev. Culwell announced that Mrs. Maude Jackson will be in charge of the church's new junior choir. Rehearsals are planned for each Thursday at 3:30 p.m.

at the church. FILM ALL WELCOME "And when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the son of David; they were sore displeased." Matthew 21:15 Calm Spring was warm in tnc sun iirst touch, as the bright glory of that Sabbath lay over Jerusalem. On the distant green hills, random groupings of flowers had appeared, like thoughts of a dreaming mind lost in reverie. Down the narrow, winding lanes of the Holy City, a Man with a face of kindness, but sad eyes, had come riding on a donkey. Scores of people lined His way, straining for a better look at Him who, it was said, was the Messiah.

Many of them had cut palm branches and boughs of myrtle, which they waved in salutation. And the children, laughing joyously at being recognized, had thrown flowers before I Iim. "Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord!" cried die crowd. "Peace in heaven and glory to the highest!" The Pharisees, outraged at this greeting, had made trumpets of their hands and shouted for the Master to rebuke His followers. Without stopping, He answered them: "I tell you that if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out." So He had gone on to the Temple, that great house of God on the sacred hilltop, its magnificent white colonnades bright in the sunlight.

As He entered, His ears were assaulted not by the sounds of men at prayer, as befitted a Temple, but by the din of a marketplace. There were loud cries of the vendors those who sold doves, those who bought and sold all kinds of merchandise, and those who exchanged foreign money for coins used in Jerusalem. Resolutely, Jesus walked among diem, "and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money-changers." For a moment there was an awed silence. Then some children broke forth with cries of "Hosanna to the son of David!" "Hearest thou what tLese say," the disgruntled priests asked. Tea," Jesus replied, "have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?" And He left them ant? went out of the dry.
