Ray Brewster and his wife Becky have returned from a week's trip to Haiti, where they ministered in Mission Churches. At one Church they helped build benches, with Mr. Brewster showing the people how to do it. Mr. Brewster tells how the people in the Churches showed joy on their faces while worshipping Jesus. These people live in extreme poverty without enough food, but they enjoy their primitive worship buildings, where they gather for worship services. Rick Brewster led the singing at the Sunday morning service ac- companied by Mrs. Lorraine Armitage on the piano, Ken Allen, back from summer camp, played his violin for the song service. Rev. Ray Brewster spoke from Acts 8:5-13 saying that when Jesus Christ is presented, the preaching brings joy, as Jesus is the fulfillment of peace and ' happiness. When our faith is based on the name of Jesus, . we can see our situations changed for good. When we know Christ as Saviour, we expect our prayers ,to be answered when we pray in faith. Rev. Ray Brewster was also in charge at the evining service with Rick Thornton leading the song service. Robert Holland sang "This is the Time I Must Sing," *ith Mrs. Lorraine Armitage AGENTS Lucan council made a donation Tuesday night of $400 to the Oxford-Norfolk- Haldimand-Brant disaster fund. The grant was made following receipt of a letter for help from the fund raising chairman Ed Sim- mons. In the letter Simmons said the loss to the private sector was in excess of 60 million dollars, about one- third of this amount was not insured, While all councillors were in fav our of helping there was some disagreement in the amount. The motion to donate $400 was made by councillors Harry Wraith and Norm Steeper and supported by reeve Ivan Hearn. The other councillors Larry Hotson and Gary McFalls were in favour of a larger amount. Reeve Hearn said he was sure the County of Middlesex would be making a sizable donation next week and added, "we we will also be paying part of that grant." Councillor Hotson com- mented, "We should be generous to those com- munities close to us. It could just as easily been us looking for help." Council received a letter from local resident Lillian Radcliffe commending village works superintendent Doug Johnson and his em- ployees on their efforts in keeping the village clean.

Council has been informed by the Ministry of Housing that their request for an increase in grants for the village's official plan has been denied. The letter indicated that the 1977 guidelines specified no cost over-runs would be eligible for subsidy. The Ontario Ministry of Transportation and Com- munications told council information on a recent traffic count would not be available until early in 1980. A bylaw was passed authorizing Vina Emery to begin her duties as the village's bylaw enforcement officer. Gerry Van Bussel and Jim Young appeared before council on preliminary negotiations for a sub- division agreement on behalf United Church The Christian Attitude to Work was the theme of the Labour Day Sunday Service at Lucan United Church. When God became flesh, as a carpenter in Nazareth, He set His seal of approval upon honest work, Yet many today see work only as a necessary evil. But Paul reminds us that the Christian can discover joy and fulfilment in his work when he realizes that he can serve God as well with his body as with his mind or spirit. Work of whatever sort can be offered to God as an act of worship. But this attitude demands a radical inner change. Before we can do this, we need to be transformed in- wardly by letting Christ into our lives to change and control us at the very centre of our being. Said Mr. Brown, "Only then can we give real worship, which is the offering of every moment and every action of life to God." Mr. Brown sang two lovely solos during the service, "Nearer, still Nearer, and "The Wonder of it a11" R.R.3, Lucan R.R.2, Staff a R.R.1, St. Marys R.R.2, Dublin R.R.1, Kirkton Mitchell of North Middlesex Holdings.

Reception Following the marriage of Katherine Hopps and David Pritchard on Saturday, September 1st in Lucan Revival Centre, conducted by Rev. Ray Brewster, the guests were served fruit punch in the former church building. The reception was served by members of the Women's Auxiliary in the Fellowship Hall. Ken Allen, now chef for the Christianview Bible College, Ailsa Craig, prepared the wedding banquet.

Mrs. Marlene Thornton directed the Church Choir in singing "Amazing Grace", with Miss Lorna Minogue at the piano. Mr, Brewster used Psalm 149 as his text saying, as the Lord takes pleasure in our praising Him, praise is a ministry toward God. When people wrong us, our praise for the good God does for us will cause God to judge and punish those who wrong us. Our praise can bind the work of satan against God's people. Healing can come through praising God. We must learn to praise Him at all times.
