Blyth United Church holds World Communion Blyth United Church celebrated World Communion on Sunday, Oct. 4. Rev. L. Rameriz chose as his subject, ‘ ‘Christ the cornerstone of our hope”. He said that hope can strengthen those whoare weak and revitalize people with a broken spirit - but we can have a misguided hope if it is a dream of always getting ahead. He used as his scripture, the story of the tenant farmers who first killed the owner’s servants and then his son in the hope that the vineyard would be theirs. He spoke to the children of the Junior Congregation about the meaning of symbols. The choir CALL FOR OPEN TIMES DAVES CAR OILING DrummondSt. E., Blyth 523-4343 “WE USE ONLY NEW $2&-$22.-$25.
