The selections ‘There's still another miracle’ and ‘I'm going home’ were exceedingly inspiring. Tim is a member of the Watchmen Quartet. Pastor Carne’s message ‘Stand Up for Jesus’ was taken from Luke 9: 26. In this scripture Peter did not. want to be identified with Christ. Sometimes it is costly to be identified and to let people know who we are. Jesus was identified with us. He became sin for us. If Jesus took our punishment why can't we stand up for Him. If we Dairy Princess speaks at Auburn Women’s Institute meeting can't identify with Christ the world will overtake us. Some people put on a face as a Christian but let a crisis come and they let us know that they haven't the Spirit of Christ. Our attitude betrays us. If you don't stand for something you will fall for anything. When you give yourself wholly to the Lord we will be given a new spirit to stand for Christ. |U|£aHwAGmfeM UTIJ CENTRE__________ (A Division ol Huron Tfisior) EXETER BLYTH Hwy. No. 4 N. Hwy. No. 4 N.
