How appropriate th~t the 'Naming of Jesus and the beginning of the New Year should be celebrated on the s~rne day, for Jesus is always the beginning of the New Life, new life in the ·spirit, eve.r renewing and recreating those things whL:h we in our waywardness manage to get wrong and which we invp.riably try to correct by making resolutions on the first day of a New Year, and yet these resolutions so often fail; but would they, if we gave them to Jesus in our prayer? For theie is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven among men and women, by which ~e must be saved. ~OFFEE will be served in the vestry after the Eucharist this morning, and the draw for the 100 Club will take place.
