The
School
for
Christian
Living
On three Friday nights, beginning with May
2?th and closing June 10th, the Program Committee of the church sponsored a school for Christian
living, to which all who were in attendance will
look back as an inspiring experience. On May 27th
Dr. John Biegeleisen, Professor at Eden Seminary,
accepted an lllvitation to be our guest speaker. Dr.
Biegeleisen had been with us on previous occasions. He always has a messageto which his hearers react with close attention and with deep appreciation. At this meeting his message captivated
the closest attention and interest of his hearersat times he held them spellbound. We shall never
forget the truths which he expounded which have
an important bearing upon Christian living.
On June 3rd it was our privilege to have Dr.
Purd Deitz, also professor at Eden Seminary, who
also has served us on previous occasions. He likewise held the closest attention of all who were in
attendance, as.he led us through the development
of the church since its inception to prove that the
power of the Spirit of God always remains victorious over all opposition. We here at X'riedens always look forward to his visit to us and again we
derived much inspiration from his message.
On June 10th we had the unusual experience of
having a missionary with us, the Rev. Harold
Auler of Honduras, who at the present time is on
furlough in the states. He is one of the pioneers
of the Honduras Mission and as an instrument of
God's grace is so largely responsible for the success of the Honduras Mission. It is his unusual
experience to have his entire family in the service
of their Lord, ministering to the people of Honduras. His rvife, as his faithful helpm.eet,is also
a missionary in her own right, their twin sons,
who have received their preparation for the work
here in the states, are now associated, the one,
Ilarold, as a minister and Richard, a medical missionary. He offered us an insight into the work
of a missionary and related many experiences,
some of human interest, to which all who were in
attendance responded with closest attention.
We were also happy to have Mrs. Kiefer, the
Stewardship Chairman of the Greater St. Louis
Regional Women's Guild, with us, who br.ought us
an interesting message based upon stewardship.
l-he venture of sponsoring this school for Christian living was counted an eminent success,with
perhaps only one exception. We had hoped that
many of our people would avail themselves of the
opportunity to derive guidance and inspiration for
Christian living, however, those who were in at-
3
Number 7
tendance were loud in expressing their apBreciation for the privilege of participating. Perhaps the
season of the year was not quite opportune, inasmuch as there were other events that claimed the
interest of our people-eommencement exercises
in the schools and perhaps other events.
Brotherhood
Picnic
On behalf of the Brotherhood of our church, we
are reminding all of our readers of the annual picnic which will be held on the afternoon of July
17th at Maple Grove, Bellefontaine and Spanish
Lake Roads. In the past years this event has attracted many people, inasmuch as the Brotherhood
leaves nothing undone to make the picnie an occasion for relaxation, recreation and fellowship.
Since we do not have the church picnic, this event
by the Brotherhood comes very near to being a
church picnic, a,s the attendance is not restricted
to members of the Brotherhood and their families,
but includes the entire constituency of the church.
May we therefore invite all of our people to come
out to Maple Grove on July 17th.
All who attend are requested to bripg their own
lunch baskets. Refreshments will be available on
the grounds. Many attendance prizes rrill be offered. The Brotherhood hopes to eclipse all pre
yious efforts.
Interesting
Events
It may be of interest to our people to learn that
Mr. and Mrs. August Riechmann and son, Walter,
have sailed on the steamer Veendam on May 2?th
to return to the scenes of their childhood, and at
the same time to visit their parents and relatives.
We were happy to receive a greeting telling us
that they were enjoying nice weather while crossing the Atlantic.
We avail ourselves of the opportunity to extend
congratulations to graduates which have been
brought to our attention: Miss Jeanne Quigley
from Washington University; Wm. Ruhland, Jr.,
from Central High School; Miss Bette Limberg
from Elmhurst College, Miss Dorothea Limberg
from Normandy High School and Paula Limberg
from Normandy School. There may be others of
which we, however, have had no knowledge.
We as a church extend sincere congratulations
to Mr. F. A. Keck, who was honored recently by
Elmhurst College, who conferred upon him the degree of Doctor of Laws, in recognition of his faithful service as treasurer of the former Evangelical
Synod of N. A. and now as treasurer of the-Evan-

period of twenty years.
Likewise it is our privilege to record unusual
honors which have been conferred upon Ann Ruth
Blasberg, lvho is the granddaughter of Mr. and
Mrs. August Greiner and whose mother was the
former Anna Greiner, on the occasion of the com'
mencement exercises at Eden Seminary. She received a degree of Bachelor of Divinity, which
entitles her to be ordained as a Christian minister.
Recently we were privileged to be host to the
Parent-Teacher Association and Mother's CIub of
the Elliot School, who conducted the installation
ot their officers combined with a dinner on June
16th. with our women serving the meal. It was
interesting that the resBective presidents also are
members of X'riedens Church-Mrs. X'red Schueler'
president of the Mothers' Club, and Mr. Herman
Tucker, president of the Parent-Teachers' Associa'
tion. We were happy to have this group with us
to spend an enjoyable evening.
We also recognize greetings which have reached
us from vacationists: The Misses Ette Smith and
X'lorence Haveland always go on vacation together. Their idea of a good vacation is to have
much adventure and consequently they love to
roam about the wilds of the west, spending their
vacation at rahches where they can go horsbback
riding over meadows and mountain trails. They
write us from lVolf, Wyoming, that they are haYing a most enjoyable vacation. Here comes a card
Jrom Helen Heineck who joins her sister X"Iorence
and husband BiIl rrith their children Joyce and
Roger, to dash down south by automobile, visiting
the same relatives who only recently entertained
her brother Edwin. They take time off to drive to
Galveston where they enjoy swimming in the Gulf
of Mexico,,which, however, left them with a painful sunburn, They are enjoying the sunny south.
Thanks for remembering us with a greeting.
On Sunday, June 12th, it was the pastor's privilege to join the members of Emmaus Church in
honoring their pastor, the Rev. Carl Bohnenkamper, on the occasion of his 25th ordination anniversary, which was a very enjoyable experience.
'Ihere is a close tie between the Bohnenkampers
or
and Friedens Church, inasmuih as Mrs. BohnenkamBer is the former Jeannette Heineck, who
prior to her marriage was an active member of
X'riedens Church, serving as teacher in the church
school and member of the choir. Very thoughtfully our president, Mr. Wm. Goedeke,sent a letter
of congratulation which was read in the service.
Again we extend congratulations to the Rev. Bohnenkamper, who also during his seminary days
taught Sunday school in our church.
Only recently Donald Zieger came to see the
pastor to tell him goodbye as he is moving to
Davenport, Iowa, to take a course of chiropractic
in the Palmer School. And now suddenly the information r:eachesus that Elmer Zieger is about
to depart from our fair city, also to Davenport,
Iowa, where he has been transferred by his company, the Marchant Calculator Co., to take charge
of the Davenport omce. How can we ever exist
without Elmer?
Mrs. Lydia Meyer finally yields to the insistent
urging on the part of her brother and sister-inlaw in Seattle, Washington, to visit them. And
now she writes us that she has arrived safely and
is enjoying the,climate and scenery of the. northwest. She promises that she will have much to
tell when she returns home. It was nice to hear
from her.

Meesenger
By the grace of God he was permitted to come
to a good ripe age. In spite of advanced years, he
was still very active. In January of this year he
had the misfortune to sustain a serious l.imb fracture owing to a fall. Immediately he was placed
urrder hospital care where he lingered through the
succeeding weeks and months. Cheerfully he accepted his lot and bore his affliction with much
faith, responding to spiritual cheer which was
brought to him. Always he looked forward to visrts of his fellow members in the Brotherhood. His
condition seemed to have improved and already
hJ was looking forward to be permitted to return
home when very quickly his condition became
critical. Almost constantly surrounded by attentions of love and care which were brought to him
by his devoted wife, who brought him so much
cheer and comfort.
He is now deeBly mourned by his wife and we
commend her to God's loving care, praying that

August-September, 1949
The Fall Program
of the Church t,. , ,
With the month of September we again look forrvard tb the regular program of the church which
partially has been interrupted through the vacation months. By this time most of our vacationists
will have returned, ready regularly to be in attendance at the Sunday services as well as to join
in the program of the respective organizations in
the church. The worh of the church must go on
with renewed efforts and with deep consecration:to
our baliing in the task of building up the. church
to become a great power for good in the world.
We.beli'eve,that after" a pefiod:ot',relaxati.onand
refreshment, all of our people will .be willing to
concentrate upon the various phases of our church
work. All of the organizations will hold their
regular.meetings as scheduled.
\fforld-wide
Communion
Again we are privileged to look forward to an
event in our church life embracing the interest
and the attention of all Christians in the whole
'world, as we,:.look toward World Communion
Sunday on October 2. On this day, all over the
world, the Lord's Supper will be celebrated for the
purpose of emphasizinC tbe,_!UU meaning of this
holy sacrament for the develgpment of the spiritual life of all Christians, .when .all Christian
people over the whole world on one day will together approach the Lord's table and experience
the vital presence of our Lord with them as they
pirtake of the elements which brings to us the
spiritual reality of the sacrifice which Jesus made
as He gave His body and sheded his blood to redeem us flom all sin.
Nothins is quite so important than for us to
know that the cur"seand conclemnation of sin has
been removed and that now it is possible for us
by partaking of the Lord's Supper to receive again
the assurance of the forgiveness of all of our sins.
There is one condition whlch we must take very
seriously-there cannot be for;givenessunless it is
preceded by earnest and sincere repentance. At no
time do we come to the full knowledge of the
blessed privilege tb rebeive tbis assurance than
when we take account of ourselves and realize our
sins. Let us therefore prepare ourselves for the
celebration of the Lord's Supper by earnest and
sincere repentance.
In order that the full significance of the World
Comrnunion Sunday can be realized, it is so quite
important that ALL of our people, who are eligible
tO ieceive the Lord's Supper, should be present in
one of the communon services of October 2nd-

meaning of this day loses something of its meaning when so many people fail to avail themselves
of the blessings vouchsafed try.their.lartioipation
in this holy sacrament. We ther€fore hop€,and
pray that orz of our people will be in attendance.
Rally Day
.On Sunday, September 25th, the Church School
obsgrves the annual Rally Day wben the entire
membership of the Church School meets in the
sa[ctuary at 9:00 o'clock for a Rally Dsy program,
We trust that all of the members of..the Church
School will cooperate by joining in, this service.
Aside from the church .school Rally Day service,
we hope to emphasize the meaning of this day for
the entire chtrrch.constitpency in the church serviees on lhat day. This is a time when all Christians will rally to.the task which has been assigned
to.them by their Lord to indicate their abidi+g
interest in the work of the church. , . ;.: . : ..+.

Our Vacationists
The months of July and August are usually conceded to be ta'cation months. Many of our peoplb
have been on vacations, away from home, scatter:ed
over many States where they sought recreation,
relief from the heat and the opportunity to do a
lot of sight seeing. Mahy of these who have been
away have very thoughtfully remembered us here
at .the parsonage by sending us greetings, for
which we are very appreciative. We react very
favoralily to their descriptions of what they have
seen and how much they al.e enjoying theil. vacation. We thank them most sincerely for. these fine
courtesies.
The first greeting comes to us from Miss Leota
Ownby who spends a vacation in Mayfleld, Ky.
Rather extravagantly she writes about the lovely
homes and beautiful scenery which attracted hel
attention, which indicates that she must have had
a lovely vacation. t: * :r. &Ir. and Mr.s. Andrew
Aubuchon planned an extensive vacation this year,
driving to Los Angeles, Calif., where they had a
n-icevisit with their relatives Mr. and Mrs. Herman
Stofck, who fortnerly lived here and were members
of !'riedens, and who are always ready and willing
to show visitors the many places of interest in
California. Incidentally, the beautiful flower.s in
California attracted the attention of Mrs. Aubuchon.

This
and That of Interest to Our Readers
It haa been very quiet around the church during
the months of July and August inasmuch as the
usual weekday meetings of our organizations have
not been held. The monotony was relieved. however, on every Sunday when our peolrle who were
not on vacation w-et.ein attendance in the worship
services. We are very happy to report that aU the
services during the summer were well attended.
for whlch we express deep appreciation.
However, in the early weeks of July we were
compelled to face an experience which caused
us
mueh concern and ala|m. Our very faithful and
competent custodian, Mr. Carl Johnsto[. was suddenly overtaken by a ver.y serious illness. Fortunately it was possible for us to have him moved
to the Deaconess Hospital where he received the
r.ery best attention and care. His condition reached
an alarmiagly critical stage when his recovery
was seriously in question, however, God in His
great mercy lesponded to oul pl.ayers in which
Mr. Johnstou also joined wiilr much fervor and
faith. Even after he returned home in a weakened
condition, his physician demanded complete rest.
Conscientious as he is, he chafed under the en_
forced inactivity, so very eager to atain to take up
his accustomed duties. During his illness his faithiul wite assumed all the rluties and responsibilities
which were required and nlet them so very ade_
quately. Young Bill Ruhland also came to the
rescue to lend a helping hand. We are very happy
and thank God that Mr. Johnston is now fully
restored and happy to again serve us in his accustomed willing and eftcient manner.
On August 5th the Youth Fellowship of the
church sponsoled a Watermelon and Ice Cream
Social, which \{as very largely attended. Combined
with the festival they presented an interesting
program to which all reacted with great enthusiasm. May we take this opportunity to thank all
of our people for offering our young people so
much encouragement by their pt'esence.
Only recently the executive committee of the
Planning Committee has had a meeting wtth the
architect, looking toward the remodeling of our
church school hall. We hope to be able, in the very
near future; to ofrer something very deflnite about
o
Mes s en
the alterations which al'e being planned. We r.eally
believe that now the impetus has been glven to
enable us to anticipate some real progress. At an
early date we hope to be able to present to the
church the plans which are in process of beine
prepared llght now.
Sometime during the month of Septenber, the
Brotherhood will sponsor a X'ather antl Son Baoquet. Inasmuch as the date has not as yet been
decided upon, we ask our fathers and sons to get
this information from the Sunday bulletins.
The Gleanerat Anniversary
The Gleaners Women,s Bible Class is planning a
special event on the evening of Friday, September.
16th in the church school hall, to celebrate the B0th
Anniversary of its organization. The progr.am will
consist of a showing of a very beautiful filnr, en_
titled "Ruth" followed by a soeial period in which
refreshments will be served.
These women meet every Sunday morning wiflr
the Senior Dept., in the church sanctuary for Bible
study. The following women are charter members:
Mrs. Louise Murray, Mrs. Mary Moore, Mrs. Elizabeth Pflasterer, Mr.s. Alna Gr.einer, Mrs. Marie
Hufendick. Mfs. l{urray is ilre president of this
gl'oup.
During this long per.iod of yeals ilris group has
had only two teachers-Mrs. Louise Sotier over
many yeals until she was called to higher life in
heaven, when ilIrs. Anna Press has taken over and
has continued until the present time. The members of this group attend the Sunday morning
sessions vely faithfully and are deeply interested
in the study of the Bible. Aside from this, these
members have also made a deflnite contribution in
provitling memorial installations for the church
chancel. They also assume the expense of providing the candles for the altar.
These wornen certainly merit the full and wholehearted cooperation of members and friends of the
church in helping to celebrate fheii. anniversary
on September 16th. We sincerely trust that nany
of oul people will be in attendance.

Funeral Aug.6 from Friedens Church
Interment in Friedens Cemetery
Our hearts go out in deepest sympathy to the
parents and sisters of young Herman Luthe|
Tucker, Jr., in the great sorrow which has come
upon them when their beloved son fell a victim to
the dreaded scourge of polio now rampant in otu'
city. Suddenly overtaken by illness, he was immediately placed under good hospital care, however the disease had already advanced to such a
selious stage obviating all hope for recove.ry. A
deep gloom settled over the entire community
over the passing of this fine young boy who was
loved by everybody. Not only friends of the family
but so rnany in the community hastened to give
evidence of their sorrow. Here at X'riedens he had
been a member of the Sunday school since his
early childhood. He was gleatly beloved by allon special occasions he invaliably was asked to
palticipate. Only recently he '!vas awarded a pin
for speeial merit in having been in attendance at
the sessions of the Church School without any
inbsenceover two years. He was a pupil at Elliot
School where also he was counted a favorite and a
good pupil to whom his teachers reacted with much
appreciation of his talents. It is a source of nuch
comfort to us to know that every member of the
Tucker family is related to the church by membership as well as by attendance in worship. It was
only fitting that the funeral services should be
held in the sanctuary. The entire chancel was
banked with floral offerings which had been placed
as a beautiful tribute of love and interest on the
part of so many people in the community, We
pray that God may reach down to these good people who are so highly esteemed by all who know
them.
He is now very tleeply mourned by his parents
Mr, and Mrs. Herman Luther Tucker, his sisters
Dolores and Carol, his grandparents John and LillIsermann, his glandfather Robert Tucker, uncles.
