BLYTH UNITED CHURCH
Greeting at Blyth United Church
on Sunday, July 6 were Ollie Craig
and Mary Lou Stewart. Ushering
were Nancy Hakkers and Mary Lou
Stewart. Margaret Kai was music
director.
Guest speaker David Onn
welcomed everyone to church. The
call to worship was followed by the
first hymn, Holy, Holy, Holy, the
prayer of confession and the
assurance of pardon.
The choir sang an anthem, One
More Step Along the World I
Go.
For the children’s story, David
showed how big the universe was
that God had made, by using a
grapefruit as the sun and a very
small nut as the earth.
The next hymn was Para, Para,
Pitter Pat.
The scripture reading was Exodus
3: 13-15 and the gospel reading was
John 1: 1-13.
The hymn, Sing Your Praise to
God Eternal was sung.
David’s message to the adults was,
I Am and So Are We All. David gave
examples of how God was
questioned in the Old
Testament, such as how Sarah
laughed when God told her she
would have a child. Another
example was Moses talking to God
through the burning
bush.
God made all in His own image
and gave people choices. People are
allowed to make their own decisions
and to make their own mistakes.
David challenged everyone when
they get up in the morning to
remember, “I am, I am.”
The singing of The Lord’s Prayer
was followed by the offering being
received, the Offering Prayer, the
last hymn Pass Me Not O Gentle
Saviour.
