tt ^YHB CITIZEN. Prince George — Friday, December 15. 1978
CHRISTMAS DAY
 • Temple to open
-^Christmas Day will mark the official opening of
itevafnped Sikh Temple in Prince George.
   ' V.Shiiftoar Singh Pawar. president of the Guru ../jotoihd Singh Temple Association, said this week ' the temple at 443 Kelly Street needed more room •.for its 2,000 area members’ activities.
     Formerly called the Guru Nanak Cultural ^Association, the local membership will celebrate its ' fii*st service informally on Sunday, Dec. 23.
      The new temple structure, which includes the pre-•• sent one built in 1974, will include two levels and ^ sptfce for social affairs.
           addition will cost $180,000 and by this time . ifc*t year Pawar says nine metal domes will be bld66dohtheroof of the structure at a cost of another $100,000.
     The new temple service area will seat 500, whereas the old area seated only 200. Fawar says members from Mackenzie. Fort St. .James and other outlying areas also attend functions in Prince George.
      The Sikh organization was established in Prince v George in 1974 and was renamed so that it would j-T^tbe related to the Vancouver temple association arty-longer.
   r-^'i^Jdru OOblnd Singh was a Sikh prophet who lived to India in the 1600s.
      •Fawar says Mayor Elmer Mercier will officiate at the opening of the temple at 11 a.m. Christmas ■' »ay.

   v There secins little hope for the refugee problem in Vietnam and Cambodia, with thousands fleeing communism every day.
     Then there’s the religious problems. Why do so many people flock after cults that (ajec fttich a hold on them as to eyeti Cause many hundreds to Where are we leading us? similar time of tthres’lf Oppression, hatreds that a' bright «pot occurred in ‘ history. The Angels said: "He -wilt bring Peace on Karth, Goodwill to Men ” Jesus came jj)most 2,000 years ago to
 change the course of man’s history, to offer solutions, hope and everlasting peace to all who would accept it.
   The beautiful thing is that these solutions are available to this day. The same answers that worked 2,000 years ago still work today.
   There are solutions to our problems, but they begin in individual hearts. They are not found in cults or men claiming great visions, but in Jesus Christ. He said "I came to give Life and Life More Abundant." He didn’t mean suicide.
   The answers this Christmas season are the same as they were in the year One A.IV ”Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved.”
