Family Theater: A Star For Helen

The Mutual Broadcasting System in cooperation with Family Theater Incorporated presents A Star for Helen starring Guy Kibbe with a Family Theater Orchestra directed by Max Tare. Robert Alda is your host. More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreamed.

Good evening. When you heard me say, more things are wrought by prayer than this world dreamed of a few seconds ago, ago, you probably had a feeling that you had heard those words before but couldn't quite place them. Well, you more than likely came across them when you were in school. They're from a poem written by the very famous Alfred Lord Tennyson, and they contain an amazingly

important thought. Just say that line over with me now and think about it while you're saying it. More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of. Believe me, that's more truth than poetry. You'll never know how much prayer can do until you pray. And that's the real reason for this family theatre. We want to remind you how important prayer, family

prayer is. We believe that just as nothing can take the place of the family toward making the right kind of world, nothing can take the place of family prayer toward making the right kind of family. So pray together tonight for a family that prays together, stays together.

My name is Ed Brannigan. I was thinking maybe I ought to tell you about Helen. Helen Jackson. She's a nice kid, one of our tenants. Being as I'm the janitor of this house, I get to know the tenants. Been here for over 20 years and I know Helen. She's a girl who sells perfume and soap
