August 15 birthday party for those
who had reached the age of 80 or
over and their friends and
tives.
Mrs. Glenn Coultes and
Jim Hunter had arranged a
enjoyable afternoon with
Coultes in charge. The music for
the afternoon was provided by the
trio of Mrs. Norman Coultes,
Gordon McBurney and Alex
Robertson.
Mrs. Coultes welcomed the
guests and their friends and started
the program with a hymn-sing from
the new hymn books which contain
a number of the old time hymns
such as “What a Friend we have in
Jesus”, “How Great Thou Art”
and “Wonderful Words of Life”.
Mrs. Harold Vincent had a short
worship service, the theme of
which was “Carried over the rough
spots”. Following the Call to
Worship, the hymn “In the Gar
den” was sung. The scripture was
Isaiah 43: 2 and John 3: 16-17.
Mrs. Vincent read the story of a
man who had a dream one night.
He dreamed that he was walking
along the beach with the Lord.
Across the sky flashed scenes from
his life. For each scene he noticed
two sets of foot prints; one belong

‘Forgiveness’ sermon theme
Arrangements of colourful
gladioli beautified the sanctuary of
Knox United Church, Belgrave,
August 13, for the Sunday service.
Mrs. George Procter and her
daughter, Jennifer presented a
piano-aboe prelude. Mrs. Procter
also provided organ accompani
ment for the hymns.
Mr. Melville Mathers welcomed
members of Knox and visitors as
they entered the foyer. Glen Hun
ter and Mel Mathers were offertory
stewards.
Rev. Peter Tucker, minister of
the charge, chose the scripture
reading from Luke 23: 1-22. This
passage describes the evil treat
ment inflicted on Jesus as He stood
before Pilate and Jesus’ reaction
during His trial and crucifixion.
Rev. Tucker stated that the
country of Galilee and the village of
Nazareth were held in very low
esteem by the powerful leaders
who asked “Can any good thing
come out of Nazareth?”
People who cannot forgive and
noticed that many times there was
only one set of footprints which
happened at the very lowest and
saddest times in his life. This really
bothered him and he qustioned the
Lord about it. The Lord replied “I
love you and would never leave
you. During your times of trial and
suffering when you can see only
one set of footprints it was then
that I carried you”. When we are in
the midst of trials and tribulations
we are too caught up in our own
self pity and worry to realize we are
not alone and that we too are being
carried over the rough spots.
The hymn “All the way my
Saviour leads me” and prayer
concluded the worship and the
closing hymn was “Amazing
Grace”.
Mrs. Coultes introduced Rev.
and Mrs. Peter Tucker to the
gathering and Mr. Tucker spoke of
the changes and many now are
living so much longer than ever
before.
Mrs. Ross Higgins, U.C.W.
President, asked the U.C.W. ladies
for their wishes regarding the flood
disaster and on motion of Mrs.
George Michie and Mrs. Harold
Vincent that $100 be sent to
Harrow U.C.W. Flood Relief.

Jesus’ trial occurred at the time
of the Passover celebration when
residents of Jerusalem were expec
ted to give thanks for their previous
salvation from death.
Jesus’ accusers anticipated that
He would collapse or cry out for
help as He writhed in pain on the
cross with nails in His hands and
feet; blood trickling over His face
from the cruel crown of thorns.
Instead the master said, “Father,
forgive these people, they don’t
know what they are doing”.
Each of us is guilty of continually
crucifying our Saviour and must
beg forgiveness. Jesus forgave; go
and do likewise.
