Eugen Bannerman welcomed everyone to church on this day of worldwide communion. ReV. Bannerman's story for the children was of the bush fires in California. He told of one small village that had logt almost everything. The children had gone back to see if they could find anything amongst the ashes. One of them found a pottery vase and another tbund a little rabbit they had had on a shelf. The pastor had also found a vase that he had. The reason they had not broken in the fire was that they had been fired before in the making and this had kept them. These vases were like life, he said, as sometimes people have hard times, but God helps them through them for better times ahead. Rev. Bannerman's message to the adults was that even Jesus spoke to people of other faiths and visited in their homes. Jesus spoke to the Samaritan woman at the well even though He knew she had been married five times and was living with a man she had not married. Sorry, our mistake Information from the story "Blyth woman opens clinic" printed in last week's issue of The Citizen was incorrect. Laurie Van Wyk, who has been an employee of The Hearing Care Centre, in Clinton, owned by John Tiede, is the only specialist available in the newly-opened Wingham office.
