Last turkey pie order date set
Greeting worshippers at Blyth
United Church on Sunday, Nov. 10
were Brenda Brooks and Nicole
Kerr. Ushering were Brenda and
Lori Brooks and Nicole Kerr. John
McDowell was at the piano in the
absence of Floyd Herman. Fred
Hakkers ran the power point.
Pastor Sandra Cable lit the
candles on the altar and welcomed
everyone to church. She drew
attention to the announcements
rolling on the power point. Special
mention was that the ladies would
be making turkey pies for the last
time this year on Nov. 20. Joann is
taking orders for January 2014.
They are also making fruit pies for
Christmas and the deadline to order
is Nov. 22.
North Perth United Church is
hosting a public reader workshop
for all skill levels on Thursday, Nov.
14 at 7:30 p.m. at Monkton United
Church.
The call to worship was repeated
in unison followed by the prayer of
approach and The Lord’s Prayer.
The first hymn was, “All the Way
My Saviour Leads Me”.
The children were asked to come
to the front for their story time.
Pastor Cable asked the children if
they knew what faith was. Someanswers were someone you believein or trust. She then asked them howdo we measure faith? She had a
measuring cup and some measuring
tapes and rulers. These are not how
we can measure faith. Faith is
measured by coming to church and
Sunday school to learn about faith.
The children said a prayer along
with the congregation and went
downstairs for their time of worship
and fellowship. The hymn, “I Love
to Tell the Story” was sung while
the children went downstairs.
The scripture readings were from
2 Thessalonians 1-5 and 13-17 and
from the Gospel of Luke 20: 27-38.
The choir sang the anthem, “Do Not
Pass Me By” with John McDowell
playing the piano. The prayer of
illumination was said in unison.
Pastor Cable’s message to the adults
was “Try to Remember.” We often
wonder what happens after death.
We all avoid talking about it
because we are not comfortable
talking about death. We often say
that a loved one has passed away, it
doesn’t seem as blunt if said this
way. Often the lonely have no one totalk to so therefore we don’t talkabout it. In the scriptures we heardthat to God we are all the same with
no one being different than the
others. We want to also remember
the men and women who lost their
lives so that we could live free. Paul
reminds us that we are all part of
God’s plan.
Barb Richmond then took over
the service while the congregation
sang the hymn, “I Need Thy Every
Hour” followed by the receiving of
the offering, the response “What
Can I Do” and the prayer of
dedication. The last hymn was
“Precious Lord Take My Hand”
followed by the blessing and the
singing of “Let Us Depart in Peace”.
Everyone was invited for
fellowship, coffee and treats before
going home.

movie nightRemembering
Having a living cenotaph like Blyth Community Memorial
Hall is a blessing when the weather turns sour on important
days like Remembrance Day. Soldiers, veterans, students,
Royal Canadian Legion members and the public at large
filled the memorial auditorium at the hall on Monday to
remember those who gave everything for their country.
