Richmond, ushering were Hope
Button and Marilyn Craig, Marilyn
Scott was organist and Katie
Dockstader was choir director and
Fred Hakkers ran the Power Point.
Deb Hakkers welcomed everyone
to church on such a beautiful

attention to the announcements
printed in the bulletin with special
attention that the ladies are making
pies in March. Please call Donna
Moore if you wish to order at 519-
523-9855. She also reminded

person. This is a co-operative event
between Blyth United and Blyth
Trinity Anglican Churches.
Emily Phillips read a letter from
Missions and Service thanking Blyth
United Church for its donation to the
Fort McMurray Disaster Fund.
Every little bit helps. This was a
project that our loose change on the
collection plate went to for the
month.
The first hymn "Draw the Circle
Wide" was sung. The prayer of
approach was said responsively with
the sign language in the response.
Rev. Gary Clark invited everyone to
greet one another. The choir sang the
Threshers reno requested
The Huron Pioneer Thresher and
Hobby Association is one step closer
to building a veranda around the log
cabin at the Blyth Campground.
The cabin is one of the main
atrractions of the annual reunion of
the association and features special
instructional experiences on how
everyday practices used to be
including crafting cloth and food
items.
Doug McCann, the vice -chair of
the association's executive, spoke to
North Huron Township Council
during its Feb. 21 meeting and
explained the need for the veranda.
"We would like to expand the
existing veranda," he said. "We have
some water damage to the lower
logs [around the building] and a
veranda would keep water off of
there."
McCann explained that one of the
association's long-time volunteers
passed away last year and
left a donation that would help the
project.
Councillor Bill Knott moved to
have a report brought back to
council at a future council meeting
that will allow the group to proceed
with the project.
anthem "The Lord is My Shepherd."
The scripture reading was from Luke
15:11-32, the story of the prodigal
son. The next hymn was
"Come In, Come In and Sit Down"
Rev. Clark's message to the
congregation was "Come Home to
Where You are Valued." Rev. Clark
asked the question of the
congregation, "Why was the Young
Man Hungry?" Some of the answers
were he was hungry for love, he had
squandered his money, lost contact,
there had been a famine in the
country, nobody gave him anything.
Rev. Clark talked about a
professor going to different
countries and asking the same
question. Those countries who had
experienced drought and famine
always gave the answer that famine
was the reason. Our culture affects
the way we act. The father in the
scriptures recognized his son from a
long ways off and ran to greet him.
The older brother was angry
because he feels he has been
helping his father all along. The
older son tells his father that it is his
son that was lost but the father tells
his oldest son that it is his brother
that was lost and is coming
home that they should rejoice.
The refugees crossing the borders
know that Canadians are a caring
people and Canadians consider them
our brothers and sisters. We can't
imagine what these people have
gone through and we let them
know that we care what happens to
them. Canada welcomes these
brothers and sisters to Canada.
The hymn "God of Life" was
sung. The offering was received
followed by the Offertory
response "In Gratitude and Humble
Trust," the offertory prayer, the
prayers of the people, silent prayers
and the singing of the Lord's
Prayer.
The hymn "Would You
Bless Our Homes and Families" was response "Amen, Hallelujah."
sung followed by the benediction Everyone was invited for treats and
and the singing of the coffee.
Project aims to make
businesses accessible

project costs. Each ramp costs
approximately $40 to build and paint
she said.
Councillor Yolanda Ritesma-
Teeninga asked Sawchuk if she had
discussed the idea with the
Wingham and Blyth Business
Improvement Areas, which she said
she hadn't. Sawchuk wanted to
discuss the plan with North Huron
first.
Councillor Bill Knott was in
favour of the project, saying if
Sawchuk needed help, she should let
council know.
Councillor Trevor Seip warned
that the project, while promising,
will be a temporary measure for
the upcoming accessibility
requirements and is not a permanent
solution.
Shoot set
for March 6
Continued from page 3
Diepstrateix finished first with a
score of 77, second was Carol
Lahey with a score of 73 and the
most lone hands was Amie Labrie
with six.
The next euchre will be Monday
March 6 at 1 p.m. at the Legion
Hall. Come out and enjoy the
fellowship and fun. The
lift is available for those who
need it.
Sawchuk explained the ramps
aren't just for people who are in
wheelchairs but for anyone with
mobility issues. Steps, even smaller,
single steps, can be a huge burden
for people unable to navigate them
Sawchuk said. She also said
the ramps work well for
people delivering items by use
of a cart.
Council supported Sawchuk's
initiative and, in an interview after
the presentation, Sawchuk
welcomed businesses to get in touch
