Day of Humiliation and Prayer
The Synod has appointed a Day of Humiliation and Prayer to be held throughout the Church on Wednesday, December 9, “because our nation, like some other lands where our Church has congregations, has sunk into the deplorable state, morally and spiritually, of being ‘full of wounds and bruises, and putrifying sores’ to an unprecedented extent. It is of vital importance that we act upon and prayerfully plead the divine promise. ‘If My people, which are called by My name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land’” (2 Chr 7:14).
(Rev) J MacLeod, Clerk of Synod
Outreach Fund
By appointment of Synod, the special collection on behalf of the Outreach Fund, is due to be taken in congregations during November.
W Campbell, General Treasurer
