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 Continued from page 3 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 with her at stopgaphuron@gmail.com FROM BLYTH AD CEN R ADVERTISING REACH MILLIONS OF CUSTOMERS IN ONTARIO WITH ONE EASY CALL!
