He extended a special thanks to the stewards and others for all the work they did in the yard Youth plan trip Sandy MacEachern gave the message at Brussels Mennonite Fellowship on Sunday, Sept. 8.

Following the Gathering Together part of the service Knock Knock Knock was sung followed by the choral anthem, Turn Your Radio On with Mike Duthie accompanying on the piano. Lavern Clark read the scripture lesson from the Old Testament, Exodus and the New Testament from Romans. Rev. Huntley delivered the Gospel reading from Matthew 18: 15-20. He then gave an inspiring sermon entitled, "All You Need is Love." He said, this pop tune by the Beatles with its lyrics from the LOVE generation of the 1960s has become a classic. It has a similar ring to the words of the Apostle Paul writing from a far generation. "Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for he who loves his fellow man has fulfilled the law. The commandments are all summed up in this one rule: "Love your neighbour as yourself." Therefore love is the fulfillment of the Law. In conclusion, Rev. Huntley told the story about Charles Colson's prison ministry during the Watergate scandel in the U.S. During a prayer meeting in a large prison, one of Colson's group went missing. They were shocked to find him in a cell, sitting talking to an inmate. The man answered, "My name is Judge Brewer. I am the judge who sentenced this man. I am here because we both need time to forgive and to love!" The service concluded with choral response, "Go Now in Peace" with Michael Duthie playing a postlude on the piano.
