London minister speaks
UC celebrates
The 119th anniversary of
the Lucan United Church
Congregation was
celebrated Sunday June 7,
with Rev Wesley Oake of
King Street United Church,
London as guest speaker.
Rev Oake read the lesson
from 2 Chronicles 20:1-12 and
speaking from the lesson told
the congregation that the
Church is in need of revival,
needing its life rekindled,
because when Christians
have departed from the
Bible, their faith subtly
decays from lack of the Word
of God.
"Keep Your Eyes upon
Jesus" quoted Mr. Oake,
completing this beautiful
verse. If we want our Church
to be vibrant we must
acknowledge our
helplessness without prayer,
and we must come to grips
with the real need of prayer,
having real love in our
hearts.
"If we have something to
confess, if we have a chip on
our shoulder what better day
than the 119th anniversary,
to get rid of it" said Rev
Oake. "God is right here
with us, closer than hand or
foot but we must open our
hearts to Him and He will
guarantee our Faith."
A piano prelude was
played by Jane Holden, a
pupil of the organist, Helen
Stanley. Jane played "Two-
part Invention", "Sonatina
in 'D"' and "Dance on the
Lawn", and did an excellent
job.
Members and friends were
welcomed by Gordon and
Bi11 Frosts. A "minute talk"
was given by Wes Stanley for
the Outreach Committee
who reported that over 50
families have been visited in
the last few months. The
"hymning" will be held
again at 11 a.m. on Sunday
the 21, and the next
Fellowship Hour will follow
the service on July 5, both
sponsored by this new
committee.
