Schimanski family greets at Melville Church
Greeters at Melville Presbyterian
Church on Sunday morning were
Frank and Jennie Schimanski and
family.
With Crystal McLellan as
organist, Rev. Cathrine Campbell led
the Call to Worship and members of
the congregation greeted each other.
Psalm 71: 1 - 6 was read
responsively and the children
gathered at the front of the church
during the children's hymn, One
More Step. -
Rev. Campbell's story was the
further adventures of Farmer Barnes
whom the congregation met last
week. Now he was deciding to
marry and being nervous, was
serenaded by his farm animals after
the wedding ceremony in town. Rev.
Campbell pointed out that during the
solemn wedding promises of love,
we must realize that love is a verb as
well as a noun, and that means it's an
action word.
Therefore, loving requires doing
and people should do kind things for
those they love, and also be gentle
and understanding of. them. They
should also remember to tell them
that they love them.
FolloWing prayers, the scripture
lesson was Jeremiah 1: 1 - 10; 1
Corinthians 13: 1 - 13; and Luke 4:
21 - 30 with Rev. Campbell being
assisted by reader Justine King.
The sermon, Forth in Thy Name,
was of the prophet Jeremiah when as
a boy he was called by God to speak
to his people. He hesitated thinking
that he could not do this task because
he had no speaking skills.
Rev. Campbell referred to public
speakers in the schools and how the
support of family and friends makes
them confident and how they are
valued because they can share their
experiences, just as at the beginning
God told Jeremiah, "Do not be
afraid."
Rev. Campbell also referred to
Jesus's rejection as he began to
preach in the temple of Nazareth,
and how because it was . his
hometown the people could not
accept his good news and follow
him.
The collection was gathered by
Bill King, Maurice Douma, Doug
McArter, and Frank Shimanski.
Activities in the church this week
include the regular 2 p.m. Thursday
Bible study at Helen Elliott's home,
and the first confirmation class of
2004 at the church on Thursday.
evening at 7:30 pm.
