Neil Lackey who is pastoral support minister for Huron- Perth Presbytery. Rev. Lackey asked the children to put up their hands if they loved someone. Then he asked the same question of the congregation and everyone had their hands up. The choir anthem Sanetus (Holy. Holy, Holy) was followed by the Call to Repentance and the assurance of prayer repeated responsively. Spirit of the Living God was sung. The lesson from the New Testament was Acts 9: '1-2. The responsive Psalm 30 was led by 011ie Craig with the choir singing the refrain. The gospel reading was John 21: 1-19. Rev. Lackey's message to the adults was Feeding Ministries. One way to show we are a people of love is to listen. Invite a stranger to something that is going on in your church and make them feel welcome. Often ministers wonder if they are doing a good job, Rev. Lackey said. The congregation can show their love by telling the minister that he is doing a gobd job. They can encourage one another in their faith. Lord, Speak to Me was sung.
