Pentecost
Sunday
celebrated at
United Church
Sunday, June 3, was Pentecost
Sunday, the celebration of the bir,h-
day of the Christian Church. This is
the time when Jesus' followers were
filled with the Holy Spirit.
Those who enjoyed coffee, juice
and muffins prior to the service did
so through the generosity of Jack and
Helen Lee. Gordon Radford and
Mary East greeted churchgoers and
Carmen and Mary Ann Drost were
the ushers.
The service was- based on the
theme for. 2001 for Camp
Menesetung, "Jesus Is the Rock".
In the storybag the children found
a rock. It was emphasized that just as
a rock lasts forever so will God's
love for His people.
The Old Testament scripture pas-
sage recorded a conversation
between Moses and God from
Exodus 33: 17-23. In Matthew 7: 24-
27, Jesus tells an assembled crowd
about the wisdom of building a
house or a faith on a rock (Him),
rather than on sand.
Rev. Ross's message was titled
Standing on the Rock of faith in
God.
The Board of Stewards offer assis-
tance to youth attending either of the
presbytery's camps. To enhance the
funds needed for this project a spe-
cial "pass the hat" offering was
accepted. Any who were unable to
attend the service and would like to
help may contact treasurer Ken
Hunking or place a marked contribu-
tion on the offering plate on a future
Sunday.
Junior Congregation sessions for
children aged from four to I I have
been arranged for the summer
months. Shannon Clark supervised
the first Sunday.
Next Sunday the service will
include a presentation by members
cif the Gideon Bible Society.
