77 SO. QUEEN STREET The Liberty House HONOLULU’S KAMAAINA DEPARTMENT STORE A REAL EXAMPLE OF CHRISTIAN TEACHING AND EDUCATION,

by a Chinese student of S^., Andrew* s Priory,

Honolulu, Т.Н.

Until I entered St .Amdrew’s Priory nine years ago, in 1925, I had never thought'seriously about religion. The family religion,

Buddhism, up to that time had no real meaning or influence on me.

I participated in the usual ceremonies as directed by my father, but I did not really understand the religion itself. It did not tie me to any vows, nor did it imply any rules to be obeyed. On the whole, the religion itself had been absolutely meaningless to me. This does mean, however, that Buddhism is in any way baseless and stupid. Any religion, if rightly understood and believed, must bring blessings to its believers. Because I did not under­ stand Buddhism, I was not interested in it. And because of my lack of interest, I was not at all influenced by it. Therefore, there had been little religious meaning in my life until 1925.

My life changed entirely after I entered the Priory. Here the Christian religion is taught with utmost care and diligence by the loving Sisters, who try their best to make all the stu- % dents c o n w u n s of the Mighty Creator of the world, God, and to teach them to live better and happier lives in His Name. In my religious education classes I learned, day by day, of the wonders which came to pass in the creating of the world and all living creatures, I learned by heart, never to be forgotten, the most wonderful and the sv/eetest story ever told, one which had been told from one generation to another, and which will still be told to fo future generations. This story was about the humble yet wonder- ful Birth of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Beloved bon of God and the

Saviour of all mankind.,

I also read of the wonderful miracles He did in His Lifetime:

of the many known and unknown sufferings He underwent for the sins of the people: and of the wisdom of all His teachings. Surely, no other hut God, the Everloving Fath^l* could have thought, of such a thing as to send His One and Only Beloved Son' into the world to suffer and he sacrificed for the sake of saving sinners. The in­ fluence of our Lord's Life on earth is great. Martyrs by millions

$ * have lived and died in .His Hame and for the sake of carrying on His work. Today Christianity is the leading religion of the world. Its arms have stretched forth! like beams of light, penetrating the dark­ ened lives -of millions of ignorant and sinful people. Wisdom and love followed in its path. Sins were, forgiven and forgotten, and mankind today is striving to live a life as perfect as our Lord's.

Though there'are many people today who are doubtful of the truth of this religion, there are a hundred tines that many accepting Christ­ ianity as their religionf Why ? Because first and foremost the promise of our Lord and Saviour, "Lo, I am with you always," Is true, and th a because of the beautifully told stories of men, women and children who have died for Christianity's sake: because of the 1оv” kindness and understanding of the workers of the Church who are y-., :.itly trying to teach people who are struggling in the darkness of ignorance of our Loving Father and His Beloved Son: and because of the wisdom taught and the results of its teaching shown in the higher standard of living in the world tdday.

But the three main ways in which Christianity influences me are as follows: the first is the understanding love of our Father in Heaven. He 'is quick to forgive and slow to condemn. His Love is s . one thing that anyone can be sure of at all times, no matter where he is or what he does. It is not a changing love, but one that is deep, understanding and everlasting. The second way is the pleas­ ant realization of His dear Presence near me. When I am haunted by the dark things around me and when my heart grows fearful and is sometimes filled with despair because of the hard things I have to endure in my family for refusing to take part in heathen worship, it is cheering indeed to know that there is always Someone near to keep us safe from harm and tocomfort us, even though we cannot see Him. The third is the hope, courage and strength I receive in prayer, the knowledge of a comforting and upholding Hand to help me along, and an encouraging Voice to urge me on, renewing the hopes in my heart. To me, Christianity is not compulsory but a holy, joyful necessity,- and in the Christian worship I have found a way to a happier and fuller and more blessed life and I know that the end of the trail will open out into the glorious, everlasting

I shall soon have to ask the “Mother” to send us four more Sisters— for a school in Honolulu.” * ------SISTER ALBERTINA’S STORY We continue our historical sketches with a quaint account of the first days from manuscripts written by Sister Albertina: “The Reverend Mother, (Miss Sellon), with a party of seven, left England on January 15, 1867, to open a school for girls in Honolulu. After 10 weeks jour­ ney, which included crossing the Isthmus of Panama and the voyage of 17 days from San Francisco we were off Hono­ lulu harbor and were met by the tug having on board Kalakaua and other aliis, also Bishop Staley and the clergy. Walking To Church At that time there were few carriages in Honolulu. Bishop Staley had an old carriage lent him by the king (Kameha- meha V) in which he took the Reverend Mother and Sister Catherine to his house in Nuuanu Valley, mauka of the mauso­ leum. The rest of the party were driven there by other friends. While staying there we attended the services at the Pro-Cathedral, (this stood on the Cathedral grounds) but we had to walk. We found the road very rough, SISTERS BEATRICE (right), AND ALBERTINA (left) and, worse still, from the Nuuanu valley CAM E IN 1867— R E T IR E D IN 1902 road we had to cross over taro patches to what is now Emma Street, which then had just begun to be made.
