...seem more so than at Christmas. A devout Lutheran who spent much of his life in the service of the church, Bach wrote more than 1,000 works, according to the definitive Bach-Werke-Verzeichnis (BWV) catalogue. Nearly three-quarters of these were intended to be performed at Christian worship-including a Magnificat and 41 Christmas cantatas (plus six more that make up the famed Christmas oratorio). Even in the secularist atmosphere of the 20th century, his music rings with what Toronto Choral Conductor Elmer Iseler calls a positive, "D-major feeling about life." From the evidence...
...Brownie Troop. After his marriage to Pat, a Methodist, Nixon began to vary his habits of worship. In Washington, the Nixons generally attended whichever Protestant church was nearest their home. When they lived in the Spring Valley area, they went to Westmoreland Congregational Church. After they moved to Wesley Heights, their congregation became the Metropolitan Memorial Methodist Church.

With ancestor worship and family under attack from the communist leadership, the revolution is a substitute for the biological line. This explains the deification of Mao, and even more than Mao, Mao's Thought. Mao's Thought must be the sole (thus unchallenged) basis for the order which survives him. The hysterical attack on all tradition is an attempt to clear the field for the rise of a new cleansed Maoist order, and youth is the bearer of the new tradition because it symbolizes...
Baby of the Week. Worship is only the beginning of First Baptist's activities. Between the two morning services (the second is at 10:50), twelve Sunday school classes teach every age group from kindergarten kids to "senior adults." Babies are cared for in a beautifully appointed nursery. In one ornate crib reposes "the Baby of the Week," the youngest of all the infants making their debuts in the nursery that...
