Lorenzo Ramirez based his sermon
on the story of the talents as
recorded by Mathew is the 25th
chapter.
He said that the servant who
buried his master’s money was
honest - but the master expected
more - so honesty is not enough for
us when God expects much more
from us.
"God has given everyone a
talent in proportion to his ability”
hesaid. “Wemustrecognize these
giftsand use them.” He stated that
it is easier to live up to God’s
expectation of us than man’s

Meetings have resumed for the
Blyth Legion Ladies Auxiliary with
a full agenda until the end of the
year. The busy summer of catering
gave their fund-raising a big boost
and the ladies can report that the
“Lift” is now almost a reality. This
Lift will mean much to many.
Zone sports began the fall
season and two teams, crib and
darts have progressed to the next
round with the dart team bringing
home the district trophy.
Donations have been given to
the Brownies, Guides and Scouts in
appreciation for their help with
catering and the usual donations
have been sent to several County
organizations.
Two steam tables have been
purchased which will be a big plus
when serving meals. Fourteen
members from the Branch and
Auxiliary spent a very rewarding
afternoon with some veterans at
Westminster Campus, entertain
ing them to bingo and a lunch. The
two ‘‘adopted vets” in Parkwood
were visited too.
Zone Commander, Mrs. Mary
Haugh was guest speaker at the
November meeting at which time,
members were updated on Zone
and Provincial matters.
A card party was held Sat., Nov.
7 in the Legion Hall and Parties will
be continued every two weeks
during the winter. Proceeds from
the 1986-87 season will be used for
outside repairs to the Legion Hall.
The annual Church Parade for
Remembrance week was held
Sunday, Nov. 8 at Blyth United
Church where Rev. Ramirez gave
an inspiring message. As padre of
Branch 420, he also led a very
worthwhile service on Nov. 11 in
the Memorial Hall stressing Peace
both days.
The next meeting of the Auxil
iary will be the Christmas Party on
Dec. 2 at the Blyth Inn and will be a
fitting end to another successful
year.
