Ryle, “The Gospel of Mark” 1857) People were overwhelmed with amazement. “He has done all things well!” they said. Mark: 7:37 He will not err in any of His dealings with us. He will take away and give; He will afflict and bereave; He will move and He will settle, with... perfect wisdom, at the right time, in the right way. The great Shepherd of the sheep makes no mistakes!He leads every lamb of His flock by the right way — to eternal glory. We shall never see the full beauty of these words, until the resurrection morning. We shall then look back over our lives, and know the meaning of everything which happened — from first to last. We shall remember all the way by which we were led — and confess that “all was well done!” The why and the wherefore, the causes and the reasons of everything which now perplexes us — will be as clear and plain as the sun at noon day. We shall wonder at our own past blindness, and marvel that we could ever have doubted our Lord’s love!

By Marilyn Craig Call 523-9318 From Marilyn’s Desk By Phaedra Scott This week, Grade 8 students went to Central Huron Secondary School for the annual Tech Day. Students got to pick two things to do during the day. They chose from Hospitality, Transportation, Manufacturing, Design, Communications and Construction. Students were raving about the great times they had and showing off their masterpieces that they got to make like cookies, welding projects and blueprints for a cottage. Students who worked in the communication tech workshop were featured in the next day’s announcements at the school. In the Grade 7/8 class, students watched the video “Dear 16-year- old self” which is a YouTube video on Melanoma Cancer awareness. They are now working on creating their own infomercial on something they feel strongly about.
