Final Lenten Service Exhorts Faith and Christ as Answer

In the concluding Community Lenten service at Calvary Methodist Church Rev. Ralph E. Shober of the Church of the Brethren urged that many confess faith with lips but deny it in life. He stressed Christ’s redemptive cross as the answer to a flawed world, calling for deliverance through the heart of religion. Rev. Samuel S. Johnston read scripture, with prayers led by Rev. W. Merval Weaver and presiding by Rev. J. H. Schmitt. Music was provided by the All Saints Episcopal Church choir under Mrs. J. D Duve, with Marshall Etchison at the organ.
