McDonalds greet for Duff’s service
Jim and Linda McDonald were
greeters at Duff’s United Church on
Oct. 8. Having a little trouble with
the furnace working, the service was
held downstairs where it was
much wanner on this Thanksgiving
Day.
After the opening hymn For the
Beauty of the Earth Joan Golden
made the announcements. On Oct.
15, baptism will take place, plus that
Sunday will find the congregation
looking at the Canadian Food Grains
Bank - A Christian Response to
Hunger.
Anyone interested in helping with
looking after the small children of
the congregation can call Joan.
Wednesday, Oct. 11 begins the book
study of Gary Zukav’s book, Soul
Stories. The study begins at the
church at 8 p.m. and everyone is
invited to attend.
The UCW mystery tour happens
Oct. 21. The car pool leaves the
church at 3:30 p.m. and will be com
ing back at 9 p.m. If you are interest
ed in attending call Gloria Wilbee or
Judy Emmrich.
Duff’s Anniversary service will be
Oct. 22 at ll a.m. There will be
lunch following the service.
Everyone is welcome to help cele
brate this special day. There will be
very special music and a lot of well
known readers.
After the choir sang, Praise God
for the Harvest, Joan invited the
children forward to tell them about
communion and how in this church
everyone is invited to share in the
breaking of the bread and drinking of
the wine (juice).
She told them that it didn't matter
the age or the denomination of the
person.
The older class of the Sunday
School, led by Lisa Love, shared
their rap song about Thanksgiving
and Joan delivered her Thanksgiving
message. All the food that was col
lected that morning is going to the
food bank.
B.J. and Thys DeJong attended an
enjoyable weekend retreat this past
Saturday and Sunday at the Hermosa
Baptist camp facility on Lake Huron.
The event was put on by the Brussels
Mennonite Fellowship. The theme
was Joy of the Lord.
B.J. said that the weather was cold
and damp but the fellowship was
warm and great.
Sunday after a morning worship
service with speaker Paul Wagner,
giving his message of A Blessing to
All, the gro”p enjoyed a delicious
Thanksgiving meal together.
PEOPLE AROUND
WALTON
I attended the Brussels 4-H Sheep
and Beef Auction this past Saturday
and I learned a lot about what goes
on there.
The members bring their 4-H ani
mals to get judged once again (after
already having been judged at differ
ent fairs) around 10 a.m. Depending
on how they placed in the judging
determines how they will line up to
enter the sale ring.
I also learned that the buyers of the
animals are very generous people. I
always thought that they buy these
animals for themselves to take home
to butcher. And sometimes that hap
pens, but in most cases these people
will pay high prices for these ani
mals and then will resell them at the
next regular sale, sometimes losing
money. So what it means is that they
have donated a lot of money to each
4-H kid.
It is so great to see such support
for these kids and 4-H in general. I
know that my son Geoff was very
pleased to have sold his lamb
Harold, for $2.90 a pound. Tim Prior
of Brussels Agri Service, was the
buyer of the lamb.
Another part of the sale that I
thought was great was that after the
auction, each buyer had their picture
taken with the owner of the animal
that they bought and the animal
itself. For those 4-H kids that sold
their project lambs and calves it was
both a happy but sad day as they said
goodbye to their animals, which in a
lot of cases, became quite a pet.
I remember well my days in 4-H,
when I cried over every calf that I
sold. I said goodbye over the years
to Shorty, Ralph, Boliver and Claud
(Grand Champion). It didn’t help
matters much when the man that did
the butchering lived only a few
miles away. So many times I wanted
to go down and set all the animals
free.
I hope everyone enjoyed their
Thanksgiving weekend.
