A 200-YEAR-OLD tradition of
the Methodist church is being
revived here this New Year
season.
The rarely-used "covenant
renewal" service, written by
John Wesley in the early 1750‘s,
will be used as the Holy Com-
munion ritual at St. Luke’s
Methodist church's watchnight
observance.
Founder of the Methodist
church, Wesley, in his 1747
Christmas message, urged that
Methodists renew their cov-
enant with God, and this serv-
ice was advanced as a means
for renewal.
