I believe in regular church at
tendance for the following rea
sons: •
(1) I personally need the spirit
ual refreshment and renewed per
spective which comes from partic
ipation in worship services. As
have grown older, I have come to
realize more fully the wisdom and
significance of the words, “Man
does not live by bread alone.” Reg
ular church attendance serves, in
part, to satisfy man’s spiritual
needs, and to give direction to his
actions.
(2) The Christian Church and
its message provide a sure founda
tion for real happiness and peace
not only for individuals, but for
the nations of the world. Through
regular church attendance I be
come a participant in this great
effort for good.
(3) Each of us a Child of God
has opportunities, privately and
in our daily v/ork, to honor and to
glorify Him. Public worship, ii
community with others of like in
terests, provides further oppor
tunity for the expression of grati
tude, adoration, and praise of our
God.
