Rev. Levin Preaches
Thanksgiving Sermon
At Municipal Hall
Inter-Faith Service
In Council Chamber
Feature of Holiday
"A Personal Thanksgiving" was
the theme of the brief sermon
preached by -the Rev. Edward W.
Levin, pastor of the Community
Church of the Nazarene, at the un-ion
Thanksgiving service'sponsored
by the Freeport Inter-Faith Clergy
Council in the council chamber of
the Municipal Building—Thursday
morning. &\
Pastor Levin first repealed the
story of the Thanksgiving of -t-he
Pilgrims called by Governor Wil-liam
Bradford despite the facttthat
of the 101 original colonists who had
arrived a-t Cape Cod, more -than 40
had failed to Survive that terrible
lirst winter.
"Now then," he continued, "I
have re-told the familiar story In
order to point out that with nearly
half 'their number dead and wlln
little more than uncertainty before
them, 'they paused to give tharSs.
What Is -that marvelous Ingredient
of faith which enables a.man,. In
the midst of his troubles, 4o stop
and thank God for such blessings
as he may have?
"No one could -honestly say that
our Country, today, "Is enjoying eh
era of peace. Too much,. American
Eaat to justify''sucto -n'"claim." But,!'*'
neither could one honestly say that
we Americans are without any rea-son
to give thanks to Almighty God
for His blessings toward us!
Freedom Is Blessing:
"Look about you, my good friends,
to the liberties, to the security, yes,
even to 'the material comforts which
we enjoy In our beloved land. I say
to you thait we of America, yes, we
of Freeport, have cause to thank
God, not once a year, but daily,
that we live In a free country and
not in a police state.
"If you could" talk to refugees
from the last oppression In Europe,
as I have, If you could speak with
escapees from behind the Iron Cur-tain,.
as I have, there would be little
hesitancy-on your part-in offering
personal thanksgiving rto God, dally.
"It Is said that one of the expres-sions
of a healthy- faith is tflianks-
-giving. I would also suggest <to you
that one of the Indications of a
healthy personality is the ability to

self-seeking, man- will, find little
