A New Year’s “Open
House” was held, for the
first time, at the Manse of
Lucan United Church, for
members of the
congregation and friends.
Quiet games were enjoyed
followed by a hymn sing of
favourite choruses, new and
old. Jim Robertson read two
appropriate scripture
passages, the messages of
which were expanded upon
by Rev. Keith Brown.
Delicious refreshments were
served by various members
following the welcoming in,
with God of the New Year.
Sincere thanks to Rev. and
Mrs. Brown and their family
for their gracious
hospitality.
Lucan council Tuesday
night approved a policy
statement which authorizes
the establishment of an
official crest for the village.
The statement prepared
by councillor Norm Steeper
said council recognizes its
role of fostering pride in the
village of Lucan and in
fostering a positive com
munity spirit adopts a form
of symbolism that
represents the traditional
and contemporary character
of the village.
The new Lucan crest is
modelled after the family
crest of the Earl of Bingham,
I------ a fewLord Lucan with
variations.
Six gold
(shamrocks) on a green
background representing the
Irish nature of the com
munity replaces the six gold
crosses on an azure
background in the Bingham
crest. The bordered diagonal
trefoil
bar was retained.
The falcon device on the
Bingham crest was aban
doned and replaced with
symbolism more ap
propriate to Lucan. These
consist of the Cross of St.
George in addition to
suggestions of Christianity
are representative of British
Colonial and Commonwealth
connections,
The three sheaves of wheat
represent agricultural
origins and industries. The
locomotive gives credit to
the fact the existence as a
village was due to the fact
the railway came to Lucan.
The three maple leaves
suggest Lucan’s role as a
municipality in the province
of Ontario and the wreath of
maple leaves symbolize
Canadianism.
The logo “A place for
people” suggests to all the
importance of each person
living in the community and
hospitality to all who visit
the village,
The new crest will appear
on all village stationery and
be displayed on all village
property where appropriate.

New Year’s Sunday was
celebrated in the Lucan
United Church with Rev.
Keith Brown speaking on
“Jesus, our King” from
Isaiah 9:1-7.
The prophecy of Isaiah of
the coming of a king greater
than David vtas confirmed in
the birth, life and ministry of
Jesus Christ. Jesus came to
establish peace, not to make
war on Rome. His “trium
phant entry” was on the
b^ck of an animal pf peace, a
donkey, not on a War horse.
Though lowly, he bore
himself in a kingly way as He
was accused by the high
priest and before Pilot He
maintained His silence, but
acknowledged His Kingship.
His resurrection also bort,
out His Kingship and again
40 days later as He returned
to His Father’s home leaving
His promise to come again.
This gave His followers'
strength, courage and love.
He came to each person to
help him do God’s work in
His kingdom on earth and He
still comes to each of us
today.
“Are we letting Him be
King of our lives?” asked
Rev. Brown, “If so, let us
keep on honouring Him but if
not, let us confess our.
rebellion and invite Him into
our lives. He will richly blefes
us and make us new persons.
Let us all start 1979 with
Jesus Christ as King of our
lives.”
A beautiful solo “Down
From His Glory” was sung
by Rev. Brown.
The flowers in the sanc
tuary were from the funeral
of the late Rufus Thompson.
We remember the family in
prayer and ask that God’s
blessing be with them in
their time of need.
