On Sunday, Dec. 5 Elizabeth
Bowman was soloist at Auburn
Missionary Church, singing "I Will
Serve Him."
Pastor Came continued his series
of sermons from the book of Acts
with scripture from Acts 5: 12-16,
"The privilege of power." It is
dangerous to talk about privileges
of power as many have misused it,
he said. In this scripture, the
apostles prayed for boldness in
speaking of the things of God and
the fear of man disappeared. They
also prayed for the healing of the
sick.
Rev. Paul Ross led the service at
Knox United Church and Nancy
Park was organist. There was hymn
sing.
Rev. Ross gave the words of
welcome and prayers. The senior
choir sang a selection of Christmas
songs and the opening chorus was
sung. Darlene Empey read a
reading to the children and prayer
was repeated in unison. The advent
candle of peace was lit by Erica
Sturzenegger.
The children's chorus was sung
by the congregation. "On Jordan's
Bank" was sung. Rev. Ross read
the scripture. "Jesus Came, the
Pastor Came said, this privilege
of power is not a personal
privilege. We must not think of the
chufch as our private reserve, for
the church is really just a
missionary headquarters where we
receive our directions to go and do
the Lord's work.
The gospel, he said, is powerful
given out by ordinary people. The
Lord will supply everything to
minister outside the church.
This privilege that the apostles
had was a popular privilege as they
found favour with all people.
Ephesians 3: 20 states that God
will do exceedingly abundantly
Heaven's Adoring" was sung.
Rev. Ross's sermon was "Turn
Around". He gave the prayers to
god and the Lord's Prayer was
repeated in unison. He gave a
Minute for Missions.
The offering was received by
Bob Worsell and Larry Plaetzer
and dedicated in song. Hymn
"Hark, a Herald Voice is Sounding"
was sung.
above all that we ask or think
according to the power that
worketh in us. The healing of the
body is great but the healing of the
soul is miraculous.
The Sunday School and young
people have been preparing for
their concert to be held Sunday,
Dec. 12 at 7:45 p.m.
Word has been received that
Dave and Deb Rodges and family

benediction and "Amens" ended the
service.

Knechtel Knows Service.
Years ago people didn't make an
issue of service. It was simply a
part of doing business. Small things
like taking your groceries to the
car, remembering your name and
wishing you a Merry Christmas
was not only common, but
expected. At Knechtel, we haven't
forgotten that the reason we're in
bu§iness is to serve you. In fact,
we have an associate store policy
on service. If you need assistance
locating anything or taking your
groceries to the car, just ask.
We'll help. Of course there's no
policy on saying Happy Holidays,
but we do that too. Making a cus-
tomer feel welcome and important
is some-thing we'll never lose
sight of. So get to know Knechtel.
Because Knechtel Knows Service.
