Sunday, June 28 when Auburn
Missionary Church held its
anniversary with Rev. Grant Sloss
of Kitchener, a former district
superintendent of the Canada East
Conference of Missionary
Churches.
Rev. Sloss brought, not only an
inspiring, but a challenging
message with scripture from John
12:1-8. In this passage we see

Recycle metals
for common good
If not enough swords have been
beaten into ploughshares, it hasn't
been for lack of technology. People
have been making old metal prod
ucts into new ones for thousands of
years. And the reason is plain. It's
cheaper. Metals already mined cost
less than those that have to be
pulled out of the ground.
Metals aren't renewable, like
trees. They're transformable - like
almost nothing else. Once mined, a
piece of metal can be used over and
over again, practically forever, and
without loss of quality. In one form
or another much of the gold, tin,
nickel, zinc, and other metals that
were extracted are still around
today. And there’s a strong chance
that some of the metal in the fine
products shining atop a modem
desk - precision instruments, foun
tain pens, computer components -
came from a humble piece of scrap.
Martha, the server. Martha has
been criticized because she served
but thank the Lord for the Marthas
in the church today who serve in
the kitchen, in the nursery etc.
Mary, the sacrificer, gave the
most precious thing she had,
perfume. This perfume cost a
year's wages, yet Mary was
extravagant in her love and
devotion.
She wiped Jesus' feet with her
hair. In the culture of that day it
was immoral for a woman to have
unbound hair in public. In this day
we often don't do something for the
Lord because we are afraid of what
people will think.
Others smelled the fragrance. Do
others benefit by our sacrifice?
Even today we often are selfish
as Judas was. Our ideas and
thoughts are to be so basic we will
not be extravagant for Jesus.
When did we do something
extravagant for Jesus? Are our
lives characterized by Mary or
Judas?, Rev. Sloss asked.
The congregation heard
inspirational singing of the
Harvesters Quartette from Samia.
Sharon's message was "Who Do
You Reflect?". She gave the
Prayers of Thanksgiving and
Intercession and also
announcements followed by the
Lord's Prayer in unison.
The offering was received by
Lawrence Plaetzer and Bill Seers
and dedicated. "O Christ The
Healer" was sung. Sharon
pronounced the Benediction.
