Reynolds P-TA
To Meet Wednesday
The Reynolds Street Parent-
Teachers Association will meet
Wednesday. Oct. 20, at 3:15 p.m.
at the high school auditorium.
The program theme will be on
parent-teacher relations. All par-
ents are urged to attend.

and son, Ricky, of Odessa were
here for a rerent few days’ visit
with Mr. Lambeth's parents, Mr.

Confession? —Ask The
Man Who Goes There!
Confession anil here s what
he will tell you; Sin is an offense
against God, it must be forgiven
by God. It is God, not man, who
determines how forgiveness must
be obtained. Christ plainly pointed
this out when He empowered His
Apostles and their successor* to for-
give sins or to> refuse forgiveness.
"Whose sins you shall forgive,''
Chriit said, "they arc forgiven
them; whose sins you shall retain,
they arc retained.'' (John20.21-23).
Thus Christ authorized the Apos-
tles, and their successors, to pardon
or to deny pardon as they judged
the sinner worthy or unworthy. To
do this they had to know what they
were forgiving... the secret dis-
positions of the sinner ... his sor-
row and willingness to repair the
wrong done to his neighbor by his
sin*. Who could make this known
but the sinner himself—and what
is this but Confession?
But Confession—the Sacrament
of Penance — is only one of the
seven Sacraments Christ left in Hi*
Church. Yes, seven- no more and
no leu! Christ* religion i* ooc
merely a message to be accepted,
but a life to be lived —from
the cradle to the grave
Christ s seven Sacraments
are the answer to man's
seven basic needs.
Man is born but he needs
to be reborn a Christian in
the Sacrament of Baptism.
He is nourished, but he
needs Christian nourishment in
Holy Communion, the Sacrament
of the Eucharist. He grows but he
needs to grow and be strengthened
in Christian life by the Sacrament
of Confirmation. He is cured of
disease, but he needs a remedy for
*in, so destructive of Christian life,
and this he finds in the Sacrament
of Penance.
Man lives in aociety which need*
officials to promote the common
good — and ■ for his life in the
Church, he finds officials provided
by the Sacrament of Orders. He
perpetuates the human race in
marriage, which Christ made the
Sacrament of Matrimony. And at
death, he needs consolation and
strength for the last dread hour
which he finds in the Last Anoint-
ing-the Sacrament of Extreme
Unction.
Would you like to know more
about each of the seven Sacra-
menu? How they can help you to
meet the seven basic need* of you*
life? Then write today for a free
pamphlet which give* important
