Greeters were Linda Wilson and Lois van Vliet. Ushers were Brenda Brooks, Lloyd Sippel and Steven and Laurie Sparling. Barb Bosman was organist. Rev. Stephen Huntley, opened with Call to Worship, Prayer of Approach and words of welcome. He welcomed back Bill and Susan Howson who had just arrived back from the North Island, New Zealand where they were visiting their daughter Julie. Prayer of Confession was said in unison: If love is patient, why are we irritable? If love is kind, why are we hostile? If love is not jealous or boastful, why do we flaunt our achievements in the presence of others?" The message to the children was about what they could buy with a dollar coin, a quarter and a penny. Rev. Huntley passed some pennies to the children and to the congregation. "Love," he said, "is like a magic penny. If you give it away, you will get back much love." He led the congregation in singing The Penny Song, accompanying on the guitar. The choir anthem was It Is Well with My Soul, with Barb Bosman accompanying on the piano. The Old Testament Lesson was from Jeremiah 1: 4-10, read by Bodie Craig. The New Testament Lesson was from I Corinthians 13: 1-13 and was read by the minister. Rev. Huntley delivered an inspiring sermon entitled, "Love Is..." He based the sermon from I Corinthians 13, verse 4. "Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or Office hours The Citizen office in Brussels is open weekdays excluding' Tues- days from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. There is a slot in the door for your convenience when the office is closed. rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, hopes all things, endures all things." Rev. Huntley said, "Love sometimes is difficult to define; it just exists and is a powerful experience that we can't live without." Following the sermon the hymn Come Let Us Sing of a Wonderful Love was sung. Minute for Missions was told by Joan Clark. She told about the Windsor Downtown Mission. "A Refuge from Despair". It is the United Church of Canada Mission that started over 20 years ago at Central United Church in down- town Windsor. For many it's a needed place, a shelter or tempor- ary refuge from despair. Thanks to funding from Mission and Service Fund, the mission provides the necessary detour from the rough roads of life. Proceeding commissioning and benediction the choral response, "Go Now In Peace" concluded the service. The beautiful floral tributes were from the funeral of Harold Knox and placed in loving memory by his family. In Clinton hospital are Ralph Caldwell and Ruby Pattison.
