A short while ago a man was
found on the beach who had ap
parently committed suicide. He
had evidently lost hope in life’s
difficulties. Had he taken his
troubles to the Minister and un
burdened his heart, and been in
troduced to Jesus, “the Way, the
Truth and the Life,” he would
have probably found no need of
committing suicide for salvation
is the way to hope. The Pastor
of the Community Church stands
ready to render such service to
this community.
