Rev. Ramirezlitthefourth advent candle. The choir sang “When Love was Born”. Rev. Ramirez spoke to the children about the gift of love that we can give Jesus for His birthday. Anne Elliott was their leader. Norma Ramirez was in the nursery. Rev. Lorenzo Ramirez titled his sermon “Glad Discovery”. He said “We like to think of life with no problems. But even in Mary and Joseph’s day it was a time of great problems.” Jospeh was a honour­ able man and not easy for him to marry a pregnant girl who, accord­ ing to the custom of the day, should have been stoned to death. But he listened to what God told him and discovered that obedience to God gave him the glad discovery of love for God and for Mary. Mary too, discovered how much Joseph loved her and realized thatGod had chosen a suitable husband for her to care for her very special baby. ’ ’ He conclud­ ed by saying that God’s plan of salvation for his people may often mean pain and sacrifice but will result in a real joy and purpose for their lives. The choir sang, “God Loves You” at the close of the service. The Church was beautifully decor­ ated with poinsettias and mums. Ushers were Dick Poore, Lloyd Sippel, and Jim and Sandra Howson.
