This was the annual conference
weekend for the London Conference
of the United Church of Canada.
In the absence of Rev. Pat Cook, the
Sunday morning service at
Londeshorough United was
conducted by the UCW. The women
follossed the service provided by the
London Conference office.
The theme for London Conference
for the past year has been, We Shall'
Tell New Generations, and was the
underlying theme for the morning
worship. That theme is to affirm the
message of faith and to share it with
new generations and to nurture one
another as disciples of God.
Taking part in the service were Joan
Goodall, Kittie MacGregor, Cheryl
Trewartha, Joan Whyte, Bev Riley,
Brenda Konarski, Mary Peel and
Lynda Horbanuik.
Romans 10: 11-15 poses the
question, "How will people believe if
they have never heard the message?"
Therefore all are exhorted to become
God's messengers.
In John 15: 5-17, Christ tells His
believers to love one another. The
writer of the responsive psalm, Psalm
78, reminds the Israelites that it is`
their duty to pass on to future
generations the stories of God's love
and caring.
With the help of Bert Lyon, Mykala
Allen and Nicole Whyte, Barb
Bosman told the story to the boys and
girls who gathered at the front. A tall
pine tree'in the forest was continually
growing upwards to the sun and its
roots reached downwards for
moisture. It noticed a new spruce
seedling by its base. For some time he
talked to the young tree about
growing tall and straight and
protected it from the weather.
After some time the spruce, which
was quite tall by now, realized a cedar
seedling was beginning its growth
nearby. As it had been helped by the
pine, so the spruce encouraged and
helped the cedar. By growing so
protected, the cedar could help the
trailing plants at its base too. With the
help of elders, children can grow to
become all God wants them to be.

The women's choir sang two
numbers, Thank You, Jesus and He's
Everything to Me.
Next Sunday, Londeshorough
United will observe the sacrament of
Holy Communion. Everyone is
invited to attend the strawberry social
following the service on June 4.
Musical entertainment will be part of
the event. Then, on June 11, the
Sunday school will be holding its
Promotion and Awards service. Jackie
Cook, a member of the Blyth
Christian Puppeteers will be sharing a
message that day. A barbecue will
follow.
