PAGE 21. Cardiff amily greets at Melville Church Greeting at Melville Presbyterian Church last Sunday morning were Jeff and Cathy Cardiff with their children Matthew and Emily. During the congregational greeting organist Mary Douma led the members of the junior choir in singing two anthems, Rock-a my Soul in the Bosom of Abraham, and Love, Love, Love. As Rev. Cathrine Campbell thanked them she reminded all in the congregation that junior choir practice occurs weekly on Tuesdays nights and new members are always welcome. Psalm 138 was read responsively. The children's hymn, Follow Me the Master Said, was sung as the young members moved to the front for the story. The theme of the whole service this morning was discipleship, and in her discussion with the children, Rev. Campbell named the first two disciples, Andrew and Simon Peter, and told how Jesus had called them to follow him. She pointed out the blue-and-white flag of St. Andrew that hangs in the church as a symbol of the tie with the church of Scotland. Then she described the calling of Philip and Nathaniel and the rest of the disciples, and Jesus's charge to Peter and Andrew by the sea "Follow me and I will make you fishers of men". "Becoming a disciple didn't end with the choosing of the 12", Rev. Campbell told the children. "It goes on and on throughout history, and even today we can become disciples of Jesus". The scripture lesson this week was Isaiah 6: 1 - 13; 1 Corinthians 15: I - 11; and Luke 5: 1 - 11, with Rev. Campbell being assisted by reader Gordon Mitchell. The sermon, That's A Lot!, was about the commissioning of prophets and disciples. First God's call to Isaiah, which he felt unworthy to answer until the angels placed a glowing coal on his lips which cleansed him and gave him a new beginning in life as a prophet (or God. Rev. Campbell referred to Peter and his disciples who had toiled all night long on the Sea of Galilee without catching any fish in their nets. When Jesus told them to try one more time, they cast their nets and caught so many fish that their equipment was strained to the breaking point. Peter, realizing that this was a miracle, fell to his knees and cried out that he was sinful. Jesus said "Do not be afraid", and thus chose these strong and courageous followers to be His disciples throughout His life and ministry. Taking up the collection were Jeff Cardiff, Bill King, Bill Aitchison and Doug McArter. Did You laiow Melville Moments by Gerald Gibson In 1872 the old church becoming too small (Melville), the present site of three-quarters of an acre was purchased from T. McMichael for $130. The frontage is 165 feet and the depth is 173 feet. Upon it was erected a building 40 feet by 60 feet at a cost of $4500.00. Tom Ainley, son of the kunder of Ainleyville, made the brick and the contract was awarded to Thomas Bfown of Cranbrook. 10 members attend Brussels UCW meeting On Wednesday, Feb. 4 the Brussels UCW met at the home of Bette Campbell with 10 members in attendance. Nelva Scott led the devotions with a prayer for those growing older. The topic Say No to Violence, was based on the theme set by the Huron-Perth Presbyterial. Mrs. Scott used excerpts from e-mails in the Observer by Allan Slater, a long- time United Church social activist and a retired farmer from outside London. Mr. Slater has been in Iraq with a team of Christian Peacemakers who serve as a violence-reducing presence in areas of lethal conflict. Joan Golden read the scripture from Matthew 5. Love Divine was sung. Mrs. Scott read a reflection on what more Christians could accomplish if they actually worked at becoming peacemakers, went the extra mile, and answered violence with non-violence. Mrs. Campbell led us in prayer. Mrs. Scott read a short story A Time to Scatter. The devotions closed with the hymn Come Let us Sing of a Wonderful Love. Secretary Joan Bernard, opened the business portion of the meeting with the reading of the November and December minutes and the notation that the January meeting was cancelled due to weather. She also read thank you notes from folks By Keith Roulston Citizen publisher Huron County must spend between $6.6 and $8.8 million in the next five years to bring its bridges and culverts up to date, a consultant's study says. County councillors adopted a five- year plan at the Feb. 5 meeting of council, subject to finding the who received the Christmas shut-in boxes. Treasurer Isabelle Wheeler gave the financial report for December and January and gave her annual report for 2003. Gertie Kel 1 ington reminded everyone to keep collecting grocery store tapes. Members volunteered to set up and make the coffee, tea and juice money come budget time. The study, conducted by R. J. Burnsides and Associates, recommends immediate repairs to some structures that could cost between $1.7 and $2.3 million with a further $4.7 to $6.6 to be spent in coming years. "We have to take a long hard look at it at budget time," said Rob Morley, of the agriculture, public for the annual meeting, Feb. 15. Monday, Feb. 9 is the date set for the annual meeting of the Huron- Perth UCW Presbyterial at Kirkton Community Centre. Friday, March 5 is the date of the World Day of Prayer to be held at St. John's Anglican Church, Brussels at 7:30 p.m. with the program prepared by the women of Panama. Discussion followed on holding a works and seniors committee, of the five year plan. He said the committee has considered whether the plan should be spread out over 10 years but felt if it had a five-year plan in place, if provincial funds became available the county could quickly take advantage of the situation. The study was commissioned after collapse of a culvert near Grand birthday party once a month at Huronlea. A tentative date of March 17 has been chosen for the hot luncheon at the church. It was agreed to hold a garden party again this year. The monthly meeting sheet was distributed and completed. The next meeting will be held on March 3 at Joan Bernard's.
