FROM WALTON
Black family lights candle at Duff’s
Johnston
sworn in
The church service at Duff’s
United Church began with Joan
Tuchlinsky inviting the congregation
to join her in the responsive Call to
Worship.
Brian Black and his kids, Laura,
Jeff and Bethany lit the second
Advent Candle (peace) and read the
advent Litany. The choir sang Born
in Bethlehem.
The children were called forward
and Joan explained that Heidi
McClure was going to read the
names of the women killed in
Quebec 10 years ago. Joan lit a can
dle in remembrance of them. She told
the children how important it is to
treat each other with respect.
Joan announced that some 40 peo
ple helped at the Bachert wedding in
Clinton on Saturday. The ladies and
one man, fed 270 or so people a
multi-course meal.
On a personal note, I have never
seen such a beautiful reception. A
huge tent with cathedral windows in
it was set up in the gym at the Clinton
High School. There were even chan
deliers hanging from the ceiling of
the tent. Each table was adorned with
lanterns sitting on mirrors. The chairs
all had slip covers with ribbon and
greenery on the backs of each one. It
was very beautiful, princess/fairy tale
like, in appearance.
I also have never seen so many
dishes to wash in my life. Everyone
worked so hard and all the food was
delivered with great precision and
timing. Great work folks!
If you didn’t make it to the
Brussels Community Choral Concert
Sunday night you missed a great
evening. You missed hearing the
youth choir from St. Ambrose
Catholic Church and the Brussels
Mennonite Choir which performed
two pieces that were written by Thys
DeJong. Margaret Mclnroy sang
Would you feel lost in Bethlehem.
Duff’s United youth choir sang, as
did the adult choir. The group from
the St. John’s Anglican church sang
two numbers one from the movie
Sister Act then everyone was enter
tained with the musical group called
The Melville Crew.
The evening was interspersed with
readings and different Christmas car
ols being sung by everyone. Hot
apple cider and goodies were enjoyed
after the service.

Joan Tucklinsky of Bluevale and
Walton’s United Churches was in

Chief Building Official Paul Josling,

A grant was receiving from the
LCBO in the amount of $835 for
recycling glass.
Council entered closed session to
discuss sick credits and a manure
spill report.
The downstairs vault was inspected
and it was felt that the repair of the
cement was not required.
The request from the Village of
Brussels to allow for an extension of
usage of the landfill site under the
current terms and conditions until
June T was accepted.
Council went into closed session a
second time to discuss a matter of a
personal nature and potential litiga
tion.
A closer look
Marg Drummond of Mitchell was one of the shoppers in
attendance at the craft show held in Walton this past week
end. The event featured the work of many local artisans.
