With Glenda Carter at the organ and Patty Banks at the piano, the service began with a sing-song, followed by the choir's singing of the introit, "Walk with Me". Rev. Banks welcomed everyone and announced that next Sunday was the beginning of Sunday School, Sept. 29 is the official board meeting and Oct. 3 is World Wide Communion. Viola Kirkby read from the Book of Exodus 16:2-15, the story of the Manna and the Quail. Rev. Charlie Swan was called upon to tell the children's story in which he told of three kinds of listeners. He wondered which of the three the children were. He pulled a funnel from his bag and asked if they were like the funnel — in one ear and out the other? Then out came a sifter — perhaps they were like the sifter, he said, which lets the good stuff fall through but holds the bad things. He hoped they were like the sponge which absorbs information and can recall it when needed. The choir then sang "Rejoice in God" followed by Rev. Banks' The Brussels Bulls picked up their first victory of the exhibition schedule on Sunday when they beat the New Hamburg Spirit '83 5-3 at the Listowel Arena. Veteran Jonathan Lane paced the attack with a pair of goals while Jamie Williams, rookie Darin Alviano and Josh Alexander added singles. It was the Bulls' third game in three days and gave the coaching staff a good opportunity to get the roster set for next month's opener. Saturday night the Bulls took it on the chin losing to Orangeville 7- 1. The Bulls only goal came on a nice rush by Zack Smith, a newcomer to the blueline. Friday night the Bulls took on New Hamburg in Waterloo but ran out of gas late in the game and lost 5-4. Brussels held the lead through much of the contest but when several defencemen were ejected New Hamburg was able to rally. Greg Brown, who played with the Listowel Midgets last season, paced the offence with a goal and an assist. The Bulls have signed 16 players including seven veterans. Back this season, Greg McNevan, Brian Zabel, Nate Bender, Jonathan Lane, Jason Baier, Tim Beyer and Josh Alexander. Unfortunately Steve welcome to Charlie Swan. When he left Walton in 1985, Rev. Swan lived in Ft. Nelson, B.C. where he experienced the mountains for the first time and grew to love them, he said. Since leaving Ft. Nelson he has had the opportunity to travel and has been to Greece, Israel (where he experienced a great appreciation of Scripture as he walked in the places where Jesus walked), Germany, London, East Africa and Australia, where he attended the seventh assembly. He recalled inflicting his homemade soup on a few people in Walton and noting they were still alive, felt it couldn't have been too bad. He told several jokes, insisting that one of them he had learned from Neil McGavin. His sermon was called "God's Faithfulness" — "The last shall be first and the first shall be last", taken from Matt. 20, the story of the workers of the Vineyard. "Grace," he said, "is the unearned kindness, mercy and forgiveness of God — unconditional love." The vineyard workers complained about the unfairness of the hiring and paying but the Parable demonstrates to all people that we Fritz, who was eligible to return as an overage, informed the club he will not be back. Fritz did not feel he could make the necessary commitment because of his studies at the University of Western Ontario. However, a Fritz will continue to wear number 11. Steve's younger brother Greg has cracked the lineup as a left winger. The Bulls have a big crop of newcomers and the management is quite high on right wingers Peter Ryter of Milverton and Jeremy Beimes of Listowel. Bill Henry of Teeswater and 16-year-old Mike Hurst of Atwood should help solidify the blueline. Goalie Scott Walls of Clifford, another 16-year- old, has also had a good camp. Coach Scott Pettigrew feels with so many rookies it will take some time for the team to gel but he is optimistic the Bulls will be in the hunt for a title shot. "We don't have the big gunners we've had the last few seasons but we have a lot of guys I think are going to be good two-way players so we should be better defensively." Brussels will cap its exhibition schedule Friday ,Night in Orangeville at 7:30. The Bulls home opener is set for Sunday, Oct. 3 when Hanover comes to town for a 2:00 game.

He's in our doubts, fears, loneliness. His love does not depend on how hard we work. God's grace comes when we least expect it, that's the secret of this parable, Rev. Swan said. The service continued with special music as Darlene VanderVeen and Debbie Siertsema sang "Mountain of Sorrow", "Highest Hosanna" and "Purify my Heart". After the service, people were able to reacquaint themselves with Rev. Swan over lunch Brussels Bulls begin season with 5-3 exhibition win
