THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, MAY 15, 2002. PAGE 7. United marks Family Sunday FROM LONDESBORO Words from The Liberty Song, by uniting we stand, by dividing we fall; are the support this week at Hullett Central School for the virtue co-operation. This is a motto often voiced by the characters of Sesame Street as well. The week of activities for Jesse's Journey held in April realized $91 for Duchenne's Muscular Dystrophy Research. On April 18 the Central region basketball tournament was held at Clinton Public School. The Hullett boys team tied for first place in a three-way split. Mr. Drennan was the coach for this team from Hullett. The girls team coached by Kathy Huether and Rosie Wiese, finished in second place. Tonight is the public presentation of the musical, Tom Sawyer by pupils from Grades 6, 7 and 8. A silver collection will be taken at the door. The performance begins at 7 p.m. As May 12 was Mother's Day by the calendar, Londesboro United Church celebrated Christian Family Sunday. Families, the title of Rev. Paul Ross's message, was the theme throughout the service. As a special treat for the ladies of the congregational choir of men sang Marching to Zion and When the Saints go Marching In. From the storybag came a picture of Rev. Ross and his family which prompted a discussion with the boys and girls about their family members. It was stressed that children need to thank God for their earthly families and recognize that they also belong to the family of God; that they are members of that much larger family as well. David, King of Israel, favoured his son, Absalom. However, Absalom desired his father's throne and his band of supporters brought Israel into civil war. In II Samuel 18: 28-33, David learns his army has defeated the uprising but that Absalom has been slain. When Jesus' mother and siblings came to visit with Him according to Mark 3: 31-35, He replies that all who do the will of God, His Father in Heaven, are His family. The thoughts which were Rev. Ross's message came as a result of letters he had recently been privileged to read. These letters were written between 1944 and 1949, by a mother to her son and future daughter-in-law. They gave insight into life on a farm and family life during that period. Five timeless family truths emerged. Although it is hard for families to let their children go, parents recogn'ze it is necessary for children to make their own way in life. There is no such thing as "the perfect family". Rather, those which are closest to an ideal are those who make the best of whatever occurs in their families. Families come in a variety of types and sizes but all are one of life's blessings. Trouble and tragedy strike all families. However it is family which provides strength and courage for those difficult times. Lastly, all parents have dreams and aspirations for their children. Most of all, parents want their children to find success and peace of mind while being honourable and respected by others. At the end of the service the Sunday School children gave a carnation to all the women as they left the sanctuary. The carnations were in recognition of the work of the Multiple Sclerosis Society. The family of the late Donald McNall had placed flowers on the memorial stands. The church and community trusts God will bless his family in their time of sorrow. The third and final reading of the Banns of Marriage for Richard Murray Cook and Jennifer Brenda Konarski were offered by Rev. Ross. Objections must he raised by May 25. The Londesboro UCW will meet on Monday, May 20. Linda Burns of Wingham will be the guest speaker that evening. Linda is very involved in church and youth activities and currently works for "Campaign for Lite', a company which makes youth videos. These videos deal with current ethical and moral issues.
