The children (and that God alone can give. As the adults too) are looking the sinless Son of God,He forward to more of Dorothy's could ask forgivenesfor others on the basis of His own sacrifice as a sin of- fering for the sins of all people everywhere. Jesus' prayer was answered that very day for the penitent thief, and for the Roman centurion in charge of the crucifixion, and it is an- swered still today whenever anyone accepts Jesus as Saviour and Lord. Christ illustrated by this dying prayer what He had taught His disciples during His life -- that His way is one of love rather than retaliation, that prayer for others is more effective than condemning them, that not even the most evil of men is beyond God's ability to reach, and that forgiveness should be our distinctive Christian response to those who cause us hurt. Cathy Kaune gave a Minute Talk explaining the activities of the new Outreach Committee.

From the left are Julie Goos and Vicki Hyde.T-A photo Gospel partners theme of UCW The Dorcas Unit of Lucan UCW met for their regular meeting on Tuesday in the C.E. wing of the Church. Leader Mabel Froats opened the meeting with several taped musical numbers on the February theme of Love. Marj Park led in worship on the theme "Our Call to Mission". By means of readings. Scripture, prayers and hymns she emphasized that true discipleship begins with Jesus' call and is ex- pressed through loving service to others. Mabel Froats led the first study in the 1981 series, "Partners in the Gospel". Canadian Christians are called to be partners with those who are undergoing crisis of various kinds, with those who are suffering injustice. and with our missionary representatives. Such partnership involves willingness to listen and to receive as well as to speak and to give. We must "stand with" those who are our partners recognizing our mutual dependence on one another. Christ taught us that Christians everywhere are part of His Body and each one has a significant part to play in His plan. The roll call was answered by Bible verses on the theme Love. Several members agreed to visit (on a regular basis) one or more shut-ins. Tentative plans were made for a plant sale at the May meeting. The World Day of Prayer was announced for Friday, March 6 at 7:30 p.m. at SI. Patrick's Church. Any who require a ride are asked to call Marj Park at 227-4674. A social time followed with lunch served by Mabel Froats, assisted by Mari Park. and the New Testament lesson by Patricia Pocock. This being Transfiguration Sunday, Rev. Pocock gave a very inspiring sermon on the meaning of the Tran- sfiguration affil its ap- plication to our lives as we endeavour to follow His teachings. This day is always the Sunday prior to Ash Wed- nesday - the beginning of Lenten Season. From Luke: 9: 28-36 we read "after 6 days 'Jesus took Peter, James, and John and went up into the mountain to pray. And He was transfigured before them." As He prayed, the fashion of His countenance was changed from human to divine and through the veil of that spirit -world which had sent Him, came spirit forms of Moses and Elijah. It was not until this "happening", that the full nature of Jesus' Ministry was revealed to Him. It marked the beginning of His journey to Jerusalem and ultimately to the Cross. This experience was the assurance that God and the spirit -world would be keeping close in touch with Him. On the mountain God was revealed to us in all His glory and majesty. Peter felt that he was in Heaven and im- petously cried "0 Master, let us stay". But when they awoke, the vision was past. The gates of the Unseen had closed and they found they had not got to Heaven after all. It was not in God's time. This experience was to assure them of God's presence with them in the days ahead which were to be filled with fear and doubts. Lent is a time which each of us should use to put the Cross ahead of us and in sincere and honest prayer ask God to direct our lives towards that ultimate goal which is the Glory of God revealed to us through our Lord Jesus Christ. Let us catch this vision on the mountain and own it. When life takes us down in the valleys of despair, call on God's promise, that through faith in Jesus Christ He will bring us back to the mountain.

Scripture praying helps shape the future. Watching prayer brings us to an act of awareness of Jesus from Colossians 4: 22. Gen. 20: 7 tells us intercession is an act of earnest appeal. Petition is an act of personal sup- plication from Job 23: 3-4. Thanksgiving as in Psalm 95: 2 brings us to think about what God has done. Psalm 98: 1 shows us the need to sing to God. Meditation is an act of spiritual con- centration on God's word, Psalm 1: 1-2 Praise is an act of magnifying the Lord as in Luke 1: 46-49. Sunday morning Rev. Ray Brewster conducted the service. Rudy Krulik, director of the drama, Heaven's Gates and Hell's Flames, told of results in other churches from presenting this drama. He then led the congregation in singing God's Not Dead. Allen Grub accompanied himself on the guitar as he sang "It's just Like Jesus", followed with "Rise and Be Healed". Mrs. Karen Krulik, playing the piano, sang Jesus is Precious to Me. Rudy Krulik spoke about how people in the Bible lost God's power before they realized they had lost something, the touch of God. When you feel you have lost the anointing of God, light the candle of God's word by reading it. Heaven's Gates and Hell's flames Sunday evening the drama Heaven's Gates and Hell's Flames was vividly por- trayed by the young people of the church and Christianview Bible College under the direction of Rudy Krulik. Allan Grub, at opening of the service, sang Because He Lives, then I'll Rise Again. To a darkened church Rudy Krulik told that hell is a place of torment that -was not created for man. But all those who refuse to accept Christ will go there. Jesus Christ died for the forgiveness of our sins, and the cross spans the gap sin makes between God and man. The drama closed with Mrs. Krulik singing "Remember It's God's Love You're Turning Away", then "Where Will you Spend Eternity?". The lighting, silver walls of judgement bar, and also the fiery red flames of hell made the drama very realistic.
