Greeting everyone on May 16 at
Knox United was Bob and Shelley
Worsell and family. Bernice Gross
was organist for the service.
In invitation to worship Rev.
Paul Ross reminded all that as
God’s people they must worship
together. Rev. Ross told them they
all have a place in this world.
Rev. Ross continued with
scripture from Psalm. Trust in God
he is rock and fortress.
He continued from John 14, the
disciples did not think that they
knew the way to follow Him. Jesus
said, “I am in the Father - believe
in me you also believe in God, ask
in my name and your wants will be
granted’’.
The sermon was on “Green
Ribbons”. Rev. Ross spoke about
the change in the world, the
condition of rural areas and towns.
Neighbours are not known the
same, people come and leave so
much quicker than years ago. He
also spoke of the need for rain -
farmers are beginning to worry but
feel that help will come from God.
Rev. Ross spoke of a lady in
Dakota - things were in more
danger there than here at that time
- the farmers were very worried.
Margaret Bruce of Dakota
understood their worry. She
purchased green ribbon and
fastened it on small plaques on
which she wrote “We care and
understand”. She sent these
ribboned tags to the farmers. They
really were a blessing, they knew
that God would help and rain
would come. The green ribbons are
spreading and used throughout the
USA.
New plans are made by the
churches to start the green ribbon
tags here. They trust that in Christ’s
name it will be successful.
Rev. Ross also spoke of how big
companies are taking over smaller
ones and will soon be in control of
rural industries. “We must pray for
God’s help,” he said.
