5. Teaching in Sunday-school when we have become old enough and our
services are needed.
6. Reading the Bible and good books.
7. Doing whatever promotes the worship and honoring of God by ourselves
or by others. [Jas. 1:27+]
A DAY OF REST. Sunday is meant for the good of the soul. But a rest on
one day out of seven is necessary also for the welfare of the body.
Sunday is a blessed privilege for body, mind, and soul. Sometimes,
however, both the rest for body and mind and the attendance at church
must be sacrificed in order to perform works of mercy as a duty to our
fellow-men.
THE CHURCH-YEAR. The Church has also arranged a Church-year for the
commemoration of the principal events in the Savior's life. The order of
the Church-year is as follows: Four Sundays in Advent, Christmas, New
Year, Epiphany (January 6), from two to six Sundays after Epiphany
(according as Easter comes early or late); three Sundays called
Septuagesima, Sexagesima, Quinquagesima; Ash Wednesday (the first day in
Lent), six Sundays in Lent (the sixth being Palm Sunday), Holy Week
(including Good Friday), Easter, five Sundays after Easter, Ascension
Day, Sunday after Ascension, Pentecost or Whitsunday, Trinity Sunday;
and from twenty-three to twenty-seven Sundays after Trinity.
