BLYTH UNITED CHURCH
Greeting at Blyth United Church
on Sunday, Sept. 9 were Myrtle
Badley and Mary Lou Stewart.
Ushering were David Onn and
Myrtle Badley. Guest organist was
Elizabeth Stennet.
The guest speaker, Tom Dunbar,
welcomed everyone to church with
the prayer of approach. The first
hymn As a Fire is Meant for Burning
was followed by the prayer of
confession and the assurance of
pardon.
The choir sang The Church in the
Wildwood. The next hymn was
When Morning Gilds the Sky.
Mr. Dunbar’s story for the
children was The Church in the
Wildwood.
The story was followed by The
Lord’s Prayer. The scripture was
from Jeremiah 18: 1-11 and Luke
14: 25-33 and Psalm 138 led by
Ollie Craig. The hymn Take Time to
be Holy was sung.
Mr. Dunbar’s message to the
adults was This Might Be Tougher
Than I Thought. The potter forms
the clay into a vessel or jar.
In Jeremiah’s message, God is like
the potter molding people and
nations and making them beautiful,
functional and useful.
We should always put God first
then everything else will fall into
place, Mr. Dunbar said.
The minute for missions was read
by Jessica Dunbar.
Blyth residents can hear what kind
of first impression visitors have of
their village when a delegation
makes a return visit.
Four members of the First
Impressions Community Exchange
from Stirling will be giving their
report at the North Huron committee
of the whole on Sept. 17 at the
Bainton Gallery beginning at 7 p.m.
The exchange is sponsored by the
Ontario Ministry of Agriculture,
Food and Rural Affairs. It pairs two
communities of similar size and
assets, then a delegation from each
town visits the other without
warning. They evaluate the
community by touring and through
conversations with residents.
“It’s a really great program,” said
North Huron’s economic
development officer Kerri Herrfort.
“Considering the number of tourists
that come to Blyth we want to make
sure we are giving the best first
impression.”
The public is invited to attend the
presentation, said Herrfort, who
feels quite confident about what
they’ll here.
“I’m very excited. I’m so proud of
Blyth and I think the community
should be too. It’s looking very
good. I feel sure that the delegation
will have good things to say.”
