Sunday school decorates church
Regular church attenders and
many guests filled the sanctuary at
Londesboro United Church on
Easter Sunday.
The Sunday School had decorated
for that morning with a tree covered
in Easter symbols and a variety of
flowers brought by the
congregation. There were two
memorial flower offerings in
memory of Tony van Dorp by the
Drost family and Bill Goodall by the
Goodall family.
Ye Sons and Daughters and He Is
Risen were the anthems sung by
the senior choir in celebration of
Easter.
During their time at the front, the
children discussed that a legend is a
story based on a belief to explain
something very old. Rev. Nelson
told the young folk that legend tells
when Jesus came out of the tomb on
Easter morning and walked in the
garden, a lily grew in each of His
footsteps. Thus, Jesus brought good
things to the world and sets an
example for Christians.
In the responsive psalm, Psalm
150, David exhorts all to praise God
for His excellent greatness. Isaiah 53
states that the Lord has made
intercession for transgressors,
Matthew 28: 1-10 is that apostle’s
record of finding the tomb empty
and of Christ’s appearance to the
Marys.
Thoughts concerning the
resurrection are found in 1
Corinthians 15: 12-22.
Resurrection Faith was the subject
of Rev. Nelson’s message that
morning, Christ frequently referred
to His coming death and resurrection
during His ministry. However, the
events of Holy Week came as a
surprise to the disciples who were
confused and despaired over His
death.
Christ’s appearances, in a
somewhat transformed state, in the
weeks following, empowered the
disciples.
Their faith created the early
church in their preachings they
proclaimed that Jesus was raised
from the dead by God. This
resurrection was the instrument of
redemption. His living presence in
the world was/is assured.
Faith in the story of resurrection,
in the power of the risen Christ,
empowers the lives of Christians
today, God can meet the needs of
those who have that faith.
Next Sunday being Earth Day, the
Sunday service will focus on rural
life and camping. The UCW will
conduct the service and Keith Loder
of the Canadian Foodgrains Bank
will bring the message.
The spring newsletter is ready for
pickup and/or delivery by the elders.
A volunteer is sought for the
coffee and muffin serving for the
month of May and June.
FROM LONDESBORO
Full house at annual Songfest Cheerios
It was a full house at Londesboro
United Church’s 23rd annual
Songfest on Sunday, April 13.
Emcee for this night of musical
ministry was Rev. Ted Nelson.
Welcoming the crowd were
mother and daughter duo, Marsha
and Carrie Szusz, playing organ and
piano duets. The excitement and
enthusiasm of the Londesboro junior
choir set the tone for the evening.
Comfortable in their jeans and blue
and yellow t-shirts these children,
led by Barb Bosman, delighted the
audience with Great Big God, We
Are the Light of the World and
Everything That Is, Is His, complete
with solo parts and actions.
A full choirloft of men from the
church sang Beulah Land, When the
Saints, Freedom Land and Oscar
Peterson’s Hymn to Freedom.
Three musically talented young
folk, the Romijn Family of Clinton,
sang Purify Me, Hallelujah Square
and Shout It.
For their second set, the two boys
played violins and were
accompanied on the keyboard by
their sister A very appreciative
audience was rewarded with an
encore waltz.
Bringing his own down-to-earth
and familiar style of ministry to the
event was Bob Heywood of the
Zurich area. Accompanying himself
on accordion, Bob sang a number of
gospel tunes, such as Peace, Peace
be Still and Come Ye Sinners.
The gospel group, Oracle, a seven
member Mennonite group, is based
in Milverton. Playing a variety of
musical instruments, these men and
women ministered with He’s In the
Midst, He Set Me Free and He
Touched Me to name a few.
Comments heard that evening and
since would indicate that, if you
were not in attendance, you missed
an enjoyable concert.
