faith: if 1 who make it what
it is, am filled with these.
A statistician has figured that
5% of all church members
do not exist, 105& of them
cannot be found: 25% never
go to church; 50% never con­
tribute a cent to the church;
75% never attend a midweek
prayer service; 90% do not
have fam ily worship in their
homes, and more than 95%
have never tried to win
a
soul to C h rist.
A re you satisfied with your
church? A re you doing what
you can fo r it? If not, ded­
icate yourself to the
task
of being what you want your
church to be.
