Floyd Herman was music director. Rev. Gary Clark welcomed everyone to Remembrance Sunday. The first hymn was, “O’ Canada” followed by the “The Last Post” and a minute of silence. The call to worship was repeated in unison. Jon Hakkers read the prayer of remembrance, “In Flanders Field”. The scripture reading was from Mark 4: 30-34. The children were asked to come to the front for their story time. Rev. Clark asked the children to look at the three pictures on the power point. One was a handful of tiny mustard seeds, the second, a floating Life Ring and the third, a girl writing a letter. He told the children that these were similar to Remembrance Day.

Gary Long, CAO/Clerk Heavenly wisdom (J.C. Philpot) “The Comforter, the Holy Spirit...will teach you all things.” John 14:26 There is a heavenly wisdom which the Holy and Blessed Spirit alone can give. He sheds a sacred light on His own word of truth, and by His personal and living teachings--opens, enlarges, and persuades the heart to receive what He thus shows and teaches. However valuable and blessed the book of God is, we cannot be made wise unto salvation by the word itself--without the special teachings of the Holy Spirit as a personal and living instructor. He can suit His teachings to our case; knows when, where, and how to teach us; can bear with our ignorance and stupidity; give us the right lesson at the right time and in the right way; and do for us what no earthly teacher can- -write His own laws upon our hearts and give us will and power to keep and obey them. “I am the Lord your God, who teaches you what is best for you, who directs you in the way you should go.” Isaiah 48:17 A Grace Gem Submitted by: Immanuel United Reformed Church, Listowel, ON 519-291-1956 Car Oiling at Lee's Service Centre Hours: Mon. - Thurs. 1 pm - 8 pm; Fri. 1 pm - 6 pm; Sat. 8 am - 12 noon (Weather permitting) 348 Dinsley St. E., Blyth 519-523-9151 We use Hot, Acid Free, New Oil CARS & LIGHT TRUCKS Trunk Lid Inner Fenders Doors & Door Panels Dog LegsUnderside Inner Fenders Hood Congratulations!
