A large congregation was
present at the Sunday
morning service in Lucan
United Church when Rev.
Keith Brown started a new
series on “Follow Me” - the
first one “In personal
Spiritual Growth,” speaking
from Luke 2:40-52.
In this chapter Luke points’
out Jesus’s growth toward
maturity, spiritually and
physically, as he sat with
the most learned men of
Israel, “discussing deep
questions with them and
amazing everyone with his
understanding and an
swers”. So Christ would
have us grow. Peter also
urges us to “grow in grace
and in the knowledge of
Jesus Christ.”
Mr. Brown told his
congregation that “our
Heavenly Father has made
provision for our needs with
the Word of God and the
more we study the more
mature we will become as
Christians.” The word of
God provides more than
spiritual nourishment, it
provides us with a guide and
with instructions to become
the people of God arid to do
every kind of work for Him.

Murray said represen
tatives of the majority of the
property owners along the
pipeline route and Federa
tion members met with
Union Gas.
He said negotiations went
surprisingly well and ul
timately resulted in Union
Gas committing themselves
to offer to pay damages for
up to five years after the
pipeline is installed.
He continued, “This is the
largest committment to pay
damages ever negotiated in
Canada and is represen
tative, we hope, of a trend
toward more considerate
treatment of farmers by ex
propriating authorities.”
