Church news
At the United Church Rev.
Elwood Morden was in
charge of the Sunday
morning worship. The
congregation of Wesley
Church joined with Granton
in their service while their
church is undergoing some
repairs.
Rev. Morden took the text
for his sermon from Luke 4,
5-8 and entitled it "Christ’s
Second Temptation”. This
pertained to the Devil’s
second attempt to get Jesus
in, his power, by tempting
Jesus to bow down and
worship Satan. This would
have been Idolatory, said
Rev. Morden.
We must worship only
God. We cannot bend the
knee to Power and Wealth
which is a second rate God.
Let us remember that there
is only one True God.
For the children’s story,
the minister told them about
Louis Braille’s invention of
the Braille System so that
the blind could read.
Flowers were placed in the
church in loving memory of
the late John F. Ronnenberg
by his family.
At St. Thomas Anglican
Church Rev. Mary Mills
conducted the Sunday
morning worship £ind was
the celebrant of Holy
Communion, assisted by
Miss Marion Herbert, who
also read the Epistle of the
Day.
Rev. Mills based her
sermon on the life of St.
Patrick, saying that a Faith
learned is a Faith remem
bered, and that St. Patrick
carried his Faith throughout
his life and eventually
became a Bishop.
The congregation was
reminded of the Lenten
service, Thursday evening at
the Rectory, March 22.
Maon's oyster supper
Over 300 people attended
the ham and oyster supper,
sponsored by the Granton
Masonic Lodge, and held in
the Mason’s Hall, March 10.
Following the supper there
was a dance.
