Church hears
about friendship
Greeters at Blyth United Church
Sunday morning were Herb and
Bonnie Shannon.
Flowers in the sanctuary were in
loving memory of Marjorie McNall.
Deepest sympathy to all her family
is extended from the congregation
and choir of which she has been a
dedicated member for several
years.
The scripture reading was taken
from John 15: 9-17. Hymns were
“Blessed Assurance” and “Love
Divine all Love Excelling”. Evelyn
Caldwell was in charge of Junior
Congregation. Ushers were Terry,
Barb, Kimberly and Trent Rich
mond.
The senior choir sang “In My
Heart, there rings a Melody”.
Special announcements were as
follows: Community of Concern is
having an Information Night at
Byron United Church, London,
Tuesday, May 2 at 7:30 p.m. The
Red Cross Blood Donor clinic will
be held Tuesday, May 9, 1:30 - 4:30
and 6:00 - 8:30 p.m. at C.H.S.S.
Clinton. Shirley Vincent’s Music
Recital will be held May 8, 7:45 at
the church.
The sermon topic was “Hallmark
of Christian Discipleship”. The
highest mark, the number one
quality of being a Christian disciple
is the ability to love one another. In
verse 15 Jesus says “Henceforth 1
call you not servants but I call you
friends, for all things that I have
heard of my Father I have made
known unto you.” True friendship
means a shared kinship of spirit. It
consists of openess of one’s mind
and heart and involves trust,
loyalty and confidence. If we follow
Jesus, our ultimate example, we
would have enough love to lay
down our lives for our friends.
The service closed with the
singing of the hymn “Lord. Dis
miss us with Thy Blessing”, bene
diction and choral response, “God
Love You”.
