Assisting Rev. Terry Fletcher
serve the elements of Holy
Communion at Londesborough
United Church on Sunday, Dec. 4
were Cheryl Trewartha and Ken
Hunking.
Rev. Fletcher lit the second Advent
candle that morning, the candle of
Peace. The senior choir shared the
hymn/anthem, "Gentle Mary Laid
Her Baby" with the congregation.
Rev. Terry told the children who
gathered at the front of the sanctuary
that the Christian church is now in
the period of Advent which means a
time of waiting for something
special to happen. It is a time of
excitement and of sharing the
Christmas story. Jesus is called "the
light of the world". Early Christians
wanted a way to show others that
that light is coming and adopted the
practice of lighting candles during
Advent. Nowadays, people use lots
Seasonal sounds
The Auburn Lions Club hosted a Christmas in the Country concert at Huron Chapel on
Saturday night, bringing together musicians from all over the county to perform holiday
favourites in an effort to get the people of Auburn in the Christmas spirit. Performing as part of
a mass band that night were, from left: Jim Crowe, Kim Teed, Travis Teed, Liam Morley and
Alecia Anderson. (Denny Scott photo)
of electric lights during the
Christmas season to chase away the
dark and fill the world with warmth
and anticipation. These lighted
decorations show everyone what our
happiness looks like.
"Dreaming" was the title of the
message to the adults. The
supporting new testament scripture
passage was Matt 1:18-25. These
verses are an account of the angel
reassuring Joseph in a dream that he
should not fear to take Mary as his
wife. In Joseph's time the Jews were
a prideful lot yet Joseph humbled
himself to do as God commanded to
accept Mary as his wife.
There are many accounts in the
Bible of God speaking to people
through dreams. And everyone
dreams — four or more times a night
and sometimes during quiet
moments of wakefulness. Although
most dreams are not remembered,
nothing has ever been done that
wasn't dreamed about first.
In 1865, a dream about a snake
gave the answer to the inventor of
plastic of how to deal with the
component benzene. A dream about
being attacked gave the answer to
the inventor of the sewing machine
in 1845 of how to get the thread
incorporated. Seems the soldier's
spears had a hole in the end. Ergo the
machine's needle with an eye.
Frederick Banting came to an
important part of his insulin
discovery through a dream.
These three, and countless more
inventions, have benefitted the
whole world. Joseph's decision
following the appearance of an angel
in his dream shaped the whole
Christian world. Rev. Fletcher
encouraged everyone to be open to
hearing the voice of God in dreams
and quiet times.
An item in the morning's order of
service caught my attention. It is
from the TV show, The X -Files, of
which I am a fan: "Dreams are
answers to questions we haven't yet
figured how to ask."
The Outreach Committee invite
everyone to their Alzheimer Coffee
Break following the morning service
on Dec. 11. Coffee and a light snack
are offered for a donation to this
cause.
At the recent board meeting it was
decided to not have a service on
Christmas Day. Everyone is
encouraged to attend the Christmas
Eve service beginning at 7 p.m.
Don't forget the Hullett Central
School Christmas concert on
Wednesday, Dec. 14.
This next item made me think of
the expression, "from the mouths of
babes". A little boy named Bobby
was heard to say: "Love is what's in
the room with you at Christmas if
you stop opening presents and
listen."
And on an encouraging note, by
the time you receive this paper we
will be just days away from the
winter solstice. The daylight hours
will begin to lengthen again. And
still not much in the way of winter
weather which will also shorten up
the winter's length.

GREEN ENERG
Ontario electric bills are near
double that of provinces each side
of us and Premier Wynne and
PM Trudeau say we must reduce
carbon, but will not reply to scientists
with the cure. We are a group of
Ontario scientists who in 2014
received the patent for the worlds
only (lower cost than gasoline)
zero carbon fuel. It will create
thousands of top jobs. In 2014
we petitioned the premier to help
get this half price clean fuel ready
for Ontarians to "reduce" electric
bills, fuel cost and carbon emissions.
Ms Wynne will not reply to GreenNH3
scientists and continues to fly and
drive spewing carbon, knowing a
clean low cost alternative exists,
yet she continues to make backroom
deals with countries where paying
bribes to politicians is normal.
It is not legal here. Media is avoiding
and not reporting. Surely someone
must know one honest media person
or one honest politician. If someone
sees a way to change this or
get a reply from this stubborn, mule
headed premier, please tell us at
www.GreenNH3.com, and tell your
MPP and MP.
