Road map, signs, Melville children's topic
Last Sunday morning Eluned
McNair greeted the congregation at
Melville Presbyterian Church.
With Mary Douma at the organ,
Rev. Cathrine Campbell led the
congregation in the Call to Worship
and the hymn, Immortal Invisible
God Only Wise, was sung by
all.
Psalm 8 was read responsively.
After completing the singing of the
children's hymn, One More Step
Along the World I Go, the children
gathered in the front pews for. their
discussion with the minister. Rev.
Campbell talked to them of
travelling, and how a road map and
road signs were essential to provide
guidance to the traveller.
She compared these travelling
directions to verses found in the
book of Proverbs and read a few
examples to the children, explaining
that these verses were written
long ago but are still relevant to-
day.
"Proverbs can be thought of as the
links of a chain to guide you through
life", Rev. Campbell said, "It's not a
chain that binds, but rather a lifeline
for living. Study them carefully, a
few at a time, and think deeply about
what the words mean, and you will
be given the gift of wisdom".
With the assistance of reader
Maurice Douma, the scripture
readings- of Proverbs 8: 1 - 11;
Romans 5: 1 - 5: and John 16: 12 -
15 were given by Rev. Campbell.
The sermon was entitled, What
Are You? Rev. Campbell told of
travelling by shuttlebus to Calais to
catch the hovercraft to Dover, and on
this crowded bus a gallant old
soldier had offered her his seat, him
being on the way home from
celebrating with two other veteran
buddies.
She told how she sat there with a
feeling of total gratitude to these
three and to all others who had
landed and fought on those beaches
she was travelling through; those
soldiers who are commemorated on
the 60th Anniversary of the D-Day
Invasion by Allied forces.
"Not to glorify war", said Rev.
Campbell, ' "but to be thankful for
the courage and sacrifice shown in
that place that gave us all freedom
and peace".
Then Rev. Campbell stated this
day was Trinity Sunday, a special
day set aside to recognize the Holy
Trinity in which Christians believe,
of God the Father, the Son and the
Holy Spirit. She explained that
Christians are familiar with thinking
of a single person 'who can be at the
same time someone's mother,
someone's daughter and someone's
sister.
"So it is with God, all-powerful,
all-knowing, the source of all
wisdom; at the same time the loving
Son whose sacrifice set us all free
from sin; and also the power of the
Holy Spirit that leads us into making
the right deciSions", Rev. Campbell
explained.
And she reinforced this by reading
the definitions from the reference
Living Faith.
Rev. Campbell compared Donald
Trump with Jean Vanier, two men
both born into wealthy families both
realizing their lifelong passions in
different ways. Mr. Trump's
activities are well publicized, but
Jean Vanier's were less well known.
A son of one of Canada's former
Governor Generals, he spends his
life working for the handicapped in
L'Arc, one of the many homes he has
developed for them throughout the
world. Here all who come find
peace, acceptance, encouragement.
'This proves that God is in us all
and we are his creation, said Rev.
Campbell.
Collection was taken up by Bill
Aitchison, Maurice Douma, Brian
Armstrong and Jeff Cardiff.
On June 15, the Melville Guild
and WMS will be meeting at Jim and
Dona Knight's cottage for a potluck
dinner.
On Saturday, June 26, a
congregational fun day will be held
at the golf course in Cranbrook,
sponsored by Dave and Janet
McCutcheon.
Next Sunday the sacrament of
Holy Communion will be celebrated
at Melville Church.
Melville Moments .... by Gerald
Gibson
1922 - Reverend J.,P. McLeod
The Session of Melville' Church
desires to record its dissent to the
action of the Village Council in
granting a licence for the operation
of a poolroom in our village:
l.because public pool rooms have
generally proved themselves a
menace to the betterment of the
communities in which they have
been initiated,
2.because a large majority of the
citizens of the village and
surrounding country were satisfied
to do without it,
3.because alarge number of these
citizens were greatly opposed in
granting the licence and no
opportunity was given 16-i-hem to
voice their objections,
4. because the licence was granted
when both the Methodist and
Presbyterian ministers were out of
the village notwithstanding a
promise, a promise which had been
made that they would be given an
opportunity to present their views
to the Council.
We believe however now that the
licence has been granted that no
good can result from continued
obstruction but will lie upon our
conscience and the conscience of our
people.
Blyth resident
Govier were among the generous volunteers who gave up
their locks to raise funds for Cops for Cancer. Govier raised
$1,359 in pledges, while Josling's supporters contributed
$615 to the cause. While organizers say they were hoping
to beat last year's total of $5,800 even they were awed by
this year's figure - a whopping $18,000 and still climbing.
