FROM AUBURN
M. Bromley
hosts study
About a dozen people attended
Bible Study at Marie Bromley's
home at 1:30 p.m. on Oct. 9. Even
though there had been frost everyone
admired the three-colour rose that
greeted us beside the entrance. It is
certainly beautiful!
The meeting began with the hymn-
sing, accompanied by Rev. Paul
Ross. Scripture of Mark 4 had been
read and was studied. This chapter is
filled with parables which Christ told
to crowds and to the disciples. He
explained that not- everyone under-
stands and follows God's word.
Also there is the parable of the
lamp under a bushel. One cannot
expect to receive much light from
that. Christ explained to the disciples
that life is similar to this.
Some followed his teaching and
some went their own path.
Life is still that way. God's teach-
ings should be followed but some do
and some do not,
Before the Bible study Marie
Bromley served lunch in her dining
room.
The next meeting was to be held at
Bernice Anderson's home on Oct. 15
at 1:30 p.m.
Thieves
steal
camper
On Oct. 8 shortly after 10:45 a.m.
OPP officers were called to a resi-
dence on Nile Road in West
Wawanosh. The officer found that a
theft had taken place from the front
yard of the home sometime during
the night.
Stolen from the yard was a 21-
foot, Prowler 2 axle brown camping
trailer. The trailer had Ontario mark-
er #N44937 on the rear corner. It is
valued at $4,00(1 and has an awning
and two propane tanks.
Anyone who can help Huron OPP
officers solve this case is asked to
contact the local OPP or Crime
Stoppers at I -800-222-8477(TIPS).
Church opened on Oct. 14 with
words of welcome by Rev. Paul Ross
followed by announcements of the
coming week. The church board will
meet on Oct. 16 at 8 p.m. in the
Sunday School. The UCW meets at
Maxine Seers' home on Oct. 18 at 8
p.m. The topic is candy canes.
The church anniversary is next
Sunday, Oct. 21. Rev: Gary
Shuttleworth will be the guest minis-
ter. It is a long rime since he was here
as a student minister. Lunch will be
served and members from A - K will
bring sandwiches while J - Z will
bring desserts.
For Thanksgiving Sunday there
was a large crowd at Knox United.
Special thanks is made to the minis-
By Sandra Clark
A week from today I will be on my
way to the airport for a special jour-
ney. I have been honoured with a
scholarship to study in Jerusalem.
The very impressive title is
Excavating the Word of -God in the
Book of Genesis. There are 20 stu-
dents from .10 countries attending.
We will be residing at the
Ratisbonne Institute while in
Jerusalem.
This is not just a classroom study
so there will be other venues during
the four week time period. ...
Masada, Qum Ran, the Galilee and
others. Ill write about them as they
happen. My plan is to send a report
weekly ... if I can get e-mail to use.
Since everyone is no doubt asking:
"What is she going there for?" I'd
better explain a bit. -
Yes, there are serious problems in
the world right now but to put it in
perspective; I can say for sure that
the airlines are being VERY fussy
right now. I've experienced that.
Afghanistan is 3,000 km from
Jerusalem.
Our son and his family live in the
Territories near Jenin and Afula.
Alan made two shopping trips to
Afula the day after the last problem
A fundraising auction for Camp
Menesetung is- to be held in
Goderich at the Knights of
Columbus Hall on Oct. 20. Contact
Barb Knox at 523-4290 for further
information. It is certainly for a valu-
able cause.
The Qpening hymn was Lord of the
Dance followed by prayer. The chil-
dren-were then invited to the front as
the children's chorus Jesus Teach Me
Day by Day was sung.
The mystery bag held two flags
the Canadian Maple Leaf and the
United States Stars and Stripes.
The Lord's Prayer was said fol-
ter Rev. Paul Ross, to the choir and
to all the Sunday School children
who were responsible for this special
service on a special day.
It was also wonderful that so many
families were in full attendance. A
number were from quite a distance
away who were home for the day
and came to the old home church.
Maureen Bean celebrated her
birthday this week. She, her hus-
band, Maurice, and Kay Lapp -were
guests of Jean and Lawrence
Plaetzer for this occasion. They
enjoyed cards in the afternoon, then
we heard on the news.
When we hear of an automobile
crash that takes multiple lives and
involves many vehicles we don't
immediately stay away from that
section of the road or our vehicles.
We have to be sensible but life does
go on. Some of you will know that
when the problems were serious last
year, Alan told me to stay home and
I postponed my visit until January
and had --a wonderful time. I even
walked on the beach in Tel Aviv a
few hundred metres from where the
suicide bomber murdered so many-
people last spring.
One doesn't know what will hap-
pen in the future and you can't sit in
a chair being afraid. That gives the
victory to the terrorists.
My next report will be from our
son's house in Ganim.
I wouldn't object if you said a
prayer for safe travel, though.

lowed by the hymn Blessed
Assurance.
Rev. Ross gave the scripture from
Exodus 16. This is where the
Israelites had left Israel and were in
a wilderness.. They were annoyed at
Moses and Aaron and said they
wished they were back in Egypt
where there would be food.
Then the Lord told Moses to say
he would give them food which He
did.
Scripture from the New Testament

broke bread and gave it to the disci-
