The secretary, AuburnThe news from Compiled by Mildred Lawlor Phone 526-7589 Auburn Missionary Church hears there's nowhere to hide On Sunday, Jan. 12, Pastor Came and Teade Bakker sang a very inspiring duet entitled ‘Precious Hiding Place’. Pastor Came's message was “The Wounded Healer” with scripture from Luke 23: 39-43 and Isa. 53: 4, 5. Many nations had crucifixion as the means for capital punishment. It was death by suffocation and exhaustion. In this crucifixion and scene three men were on a cross. Christ was identified with crimi­ nals. In this case Christ could not save Himself for there was no other way to redeem mankind. Many people go through a lifetime with­ out saying “I have sinned”. Everyone is faced with the inevitable. The scripture says “it is appointed unto man once to die and afterwards the judgement”. We cannot walk away from judgement although in today's world many people try to walk away from the commands of Christ. One thief made an investment when he said to Christ: “Remember me”. Because of his investment he heard welcome words: “today you will be with me in paradise.” Let us invest our lives in Christ. Dave and Doran Rolston, also Mervin and Elnor Beuerman are spending several weeks in Florida. Leslie and Dorothy Bolton have gone to Jamaica to assist a pastor there.

And of that group 97% turn to their local newspaper for informative editorial topics which address issues pertinent only to their individual community: special interest news they can't find in a daily. And because the average reader refers to his local newspaper on an average of 2.4 times per issue, this consistent steady readership offers the ideal opportunity to deliver your one time advertising message again and again. In fact, one National Daily Newspaper buy plus one National Community Press buy will provide a more cost-efficient reach with a 10% higher net coverage than a 4-insertion National Daily Newspaper Campaign. So if you want to reach the people next door, take a look at us. And you’ll come to agree that your community newspaper stacks up to anybody. ... CitizenTheNorthHuron P.O. Box 429, BLYTH, Ont.
