BLYTH UNITED CHURCH Blyth United Church held its service on Sunday, June 5 at Camp Menesetung at 11 a.m. Lorna Fraser welcomed everyone with the Call to Worship repeated responsively. The first hymn We are One, was accompanied by Cappy Onn playing the violin. Wyatt Bearss read the scripture from Matthew 18: 1-5 and Mark 10: 13-16. Mrs. Fraser’s message was a story of everyone working together to make a better world. The children gathered at the front and each was given either a red, green or blue hat and each carried a flashlight with the colour of their hats. As they read a verse as to what their colour represented, they shone their light on a white cardboard. This showed that as individual light it showed red, green and blue, but if put together and shone on a white paper in the same spot they become white. The Sunday school awards were presented. Mrs. Fraser presented each teacher with a gift as a thank you. Deb Hakkers presented her with a gift. Fred and Deb Hakkers were presented with a plant as a thank you for making the birthday cake each month. The offering was collected by Laurie Sparling and Randy Fraser. A potluck lunch and birthday cake were enjoyed in the dining hall. Those celebrating birthdays for June and July were Karen Giousher, Quinton Hakkers, Bodie Craig and Loma Fraser.
