. SEEDS FROM THE SOWER Mic~l A. Guido

There was a wreck at sea and four men got into a lifeboat. From their end, two men watched those at the other end bail earnestly to keep the boat afloat

One said, ''Thank heaven the hole isn't at our end."

But we're all in this boat together. In the face of political and social evil, neutrality isn't honest or Christian.

Whether we like it or not, we're involved -for better or for worse.

Our Lord said; "rr My people will humble themselves and pray, and scuch for Me, and turn from their wicked ways, I will forgive their sins and heal their land:'

I've turned to the Lord. I'll help others. Won't you?
