Legion wins a first in Fall Fair chili-cookoff BY SANDRA JOSLING The week of Sept. 20-26 is Legion Week, a chance for the public to leam of the work and the special activities done by the Legion yearly. There have been changes to the Legion membership eligibility. If you care to become a member you can join as an Ordinary, someone who has served or is serving in the Armed Forces, The Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Militia and Commissioned Officers on the Cadet Instructor list. An Associate is a spouse of an Ordinary or Life member or daughter of an Ordinary or Life Member, or anyone who has served three years in the Canadian Armed Forces Cadet Groups. This category has now been opened to the grandchildren of Ordinary or Life members. Lastly, Fraternal members are persons not eligible for Ordinary or Associate membership but can be affiliated to the Branch Fraternal for social and educational purposes. All persons eligible for membership in the Royal Canadian Legion are welcome to apply at their local Branch. The Brussels Legion Cadet Corp is searching for interested persons to help with the Corp. There is no need for experience as they are willing to train. A special congratulations is extended to Comrade Mark Howard. Mark represented the Brussels Legion at the Fall Fair Chili Cook-off. Mark's mild chili won first place. Be sure to hide the recipe until next year. Service Officer Mel Harper will be visiting the Branch Oct. 26. If OKTOBERFEST D.V.

Church news Brussels Mennonite Fellowship Pastor Tom Warner preached from Matthew 2, on Sunday, Sept. 20. Being a Christian does not make your life perfect. It means that God will walk through it with you. As a sermon title, Tom used “Jesus inspires terror and worship. He inspires terror to those who disobey God and worship to those who must and obey. For example, Herod was so terrified of Christ that he ordered all babies under two years of age to be killed. The ladies will meet at the Church for their monthly fellowship meeting on Tuesday evening, Sept. 22, with Linda Garland and Marg Becker in charge of the meeting.
