Lenten Sermons Set
By St. Luke’s Pastor
Dr. W. McFerrin Stowe, pastor
of St. Luke's Methodist church,
will begin a Lenten sermon
series on "The Great Affirma-
tions of Jesus" this Sunday
The sermons will be given
twice each Sunday at 9:30 a.m.
and 10:55 a m. services in the
St. Luke's sanctuary.
tions—is founded on the passage
in John 13 which records that
Christ "—poured water into a
basin and began to wash the dis-
ciples' feet, and to wipe them
with the towel with which he was
girded "
Christ later admonished, "Do
you know what I ’have done to
you’ You call me Teacher and
Lord: and you are right, for so I
am. If I then, your Lord and
Teacher, have washed your feet,
you also ought to wash one an-
other s feet.
"For I have given you an ex-
ample, that you also should do
as I have done to you.”
Following this example Is a
twice-a-year ceremony within
the local Church of the Breth-
ren. the only congregation of its
denomination in Oklahoma City.
It is a part of the service
-which the church calls "Agape."
a Greek word meaning love un-
requited freely given. The
Agape ritual also includes a fel-
lowship meal, when friends and
families sit down to dinner with
one another before taking com-
munion.
The communion. or Eucharist.
Is celebrated in the church four
times a year, twice without the
Agape service preceeding it.
Agape is designed to stress
man's relationship to man. but
the communion, the highest serv-
ice of the church. denotes mans
relationship to his God
interpreting the significance of
the Agape ceremony in his
church. Rev. Don Stern. pastor,
explains. "We feel that Christ
recognized the immense problem
of man's pride and ego Jesus
saw the danger of pride and
haughtiness—it kills the soul
"This act of washing feet is
symbolic to us of the servitude
of man to his fellow man: it is
as symbolic as the taking of
wine and bread for the body
and blood of Christ is.
"When we have washed the
feet of a brother, we feel kin-
ship. We know that we are chil-
dren of the same God and not
above one another. The humility
of the act fives a person a dif-
ferent outlook."
Preparations for the foot-wash-
ing rites and the fellowship ban-
quet that follows are intensive
for the small, 200-member con-
gregation of the n o r t h s i d e
church The service requires con-
siderable planning and work on
the part of church men and
women.
Besides Maundy Thursday.
Agape is observed again on the
first Sunday in October, though
some Brethren churches do not
follow the ritual at all.
Brotherhood and service, both
personified in the Agape rites,
are goals to which the Church of
