FROM LONDESBORO
Happy
Gang
plays
cards
The Happy Gang Seniors held their
monthly card party at the Londesboro
Community Hall on Friday, Oct. 12
with 18 1/2 tables in play.
Mabel Wheeler and Jim Coultes
were the high couple scoring 75
points. With 72 points Doris
McClinchey and Deanna Bacon were
in second place. Tied for third place
with 71 points were three couples.
Five lone hands were also a popu-
lar score for three couples. the three
share-the-wealth winners were
Mabel Wheeler, Dennis Penfound
and Lois Chamney.
The next euchre party will be held
on Nov. 9.
On Tuesday e‘, ening, Oct. 9, ladies
of Londesboro gathered in the base-
ment of Londesboro United Church
to extend best wishes to Kelly
Bosman, bride-elect of Blaine
Marks.
Numerous lovely and useful gifts
were presented to the future bride as
well. Kelly was stunning- in her rib-
bon and bow bedecked chapeau as
she thanked everyone for their
thoughtfulness.
In return for the cake and ice-
cream dessert, the ladies were asked
to guess the number of jellybeans
and M & M's in jars and to puzzle
over two contests involving
Christmas songs. Listing words
made from the letters in 'Kelly' and
'Blaine' proved to be somewhat eas-
ier.
Since Blaine and Kelly will be liv-
ing in Seaforth following their mar-
riage on Nov. 3, the young couple
will maintain their ties to our village.
Responsible for the shower's
organization, decorating and enter-
tainment were Nancy Greidanus,
Jean Crawford, Shannon Clark and
Marjorie Duizer.
Grandma Marion Snell was unable
to attend Kelly's shower as she was
not feeling well and at time of
reporting, is a patient in Clinton
Public Hospital. We wish her a
speedy return-to good health.
Greeting churchgoers at
Londesboro United Church on
Sunday, Oct. 14 were Mary
Vandermoelen and Edna Reid. Doing
the ushering and offering duties were
Kelly Bosman and Blaine Marks.
Valerie Van Riesen, who has been
the music director and organist for
the past year, has accepted a position
as a kindergarten teacher in
Brampton with the Peel School
Board. In appreciation for sharing
her musical talents with the church,
Rev. Paul Ross wished her God's
blessings and gave her a photo direc-
tory with which to remember the
Londesboro congregation.
Clerk of Session, Barb Bosman,
presented her with a beautiful bou-
quet of flowers.
From the storybag, the children
drew both an American and Canadian
flag — symbols of those nations. Rev.
Ross explained that bread and
wine/grape juice are the symbols or
reminders of Jesus used during com-
munion.
A New Reality was the title of Rev.
Ross's message. There had been
much joy among the Israelites as they
were freed from slavery. That joy
was short-lived and they were angry
and discouraged at the reality of their
new situation and their hunger.
In the Old Testament scripture pas-
sage, Exodus 16: 1-8, God promises
to feed them on their journey —
manna from heaven. Matthew 26:
26-30 is the apostle Matthew's ver-
sion of the institution of the Lord's
Supper or communion.
In years past large numbers of con-
On Oct. 12 at 3 p.m. Huron OPP
were contacted over a theft that
occurred at Hui lett Wildlife
Conservation Area in Hullett Twp.
The victim said that the day before
between noon and 6:30 p.m. the
front and rear windows of his 1999
GMC Sierra pickup were smashed.
A tritronics shock collar, wildlife
gregants would be present for the
observance of communion. The serv-
ice allows worshippers to connect
with their faith in a special way.
But the new reality for ministers is
that attending a communion service
is no longer a must for churchgoers.
In addition, in recent years, the
United Church has changed many of
the aspects of communion that made
the observance special. Christians are
challenged to accept the new reality
surrounding communion. The mean-
ing of communion has not changed
and its elements are central to our
faith. The symbolic act of the Lord's
Supper defines who we are as
Christians.
Elders assisting Rev. Ross with
communion were Dorothy Johnston,
Edna Reid, Garnet Wright, Don
Goodall, Laura Scott and Brian
Whyte.
Knox United Church, Auburn
invites the Londesboro congregation
to join with them for their anniver-
sary service on Sunday, Oct. 21. Rev.
Gary Shuttleworth, the congrega-
tion's last student minister, will be
the guest preacher.
The Londesboro UCW will be hav-
ing a pie baking day at the church on
Tuesday, Oct. 23. Your help would be
appreciated. You may place your
orders early with Helen Lee (523-
4370) or Florence Snell (523-4418).
Ready-to-bake pies will be 35 each.
