Mr. Brown prepared the con= gregation for this special observance as he spoke of the meaning of the Cross. Christ summed up that meaning in His own words when He prayed for his .enemies and. His executioners - saying,. "Father, forgive them!" In so doing, He demonstrated the love in action about which He had taught. •Forgiveness, bringing freedom from guilt, is at the heart of the Christian Gpspel and represents the deepest need of all men. The Gospel declares that God will accept us in spite of our sin because Jesus died to take it away, when we come to Him in repentance and trust. Said. Mr Brown, "The greatest gift we can give to others is the reflection of this greatest gift God gives' us. When we rid ourselves of resentment of those who have wronged us and forgive because we have be+en forgiven, the message of Calvary will be extended through us."

The season of Epiphany emphasizes our reason, as Chr�tians, for being. Rev. Pocock based his sermon on this theme. During Advent we prepared for the coming of Jesus; during Christmas we celebrated his coming; •and during epiphany we ask why did Jesus come? Jesus is God's gift to all mankind, Jew and Gentile; a new beginning, a light to lighten the darkness. God's gift is free, but demands a human response. The ultimate gift we can bring to God is ourselves. As commit- ted Christians we are all call- ed to be apostles in the world - proclaiming the Good' news and letting our light shine in a worth of darkness. We are asked to share the gift of love with others. Have you invited anyone to share in the joy of being part of God's family? Why not do so today.

Williams, from 2 Peter 1:3-10, said our spiritual progress depends on com- mittment and daily living. If Christians do not follow the principle of verses 5 to 7 they are heading for a fall., Mr. Williamsstressedwe need to be diligent to.prbduce fruit in our spiritual lives. Charity is the kind of -love that thrives without recognition. Kindness generates ' brotherly tolerance. Godliness is show- ing a Godlike nature. Patience is a. caution against unwise attitudes of 'a fleshly natures. Temperance, self control, prodyces the Godlike image of Christ. Knowledge is ability to add and increase from the Word of God. Virtue is determina- tion rightly, used. Faith is allowing God to stretch our confidence in Him. : A person must take on God's divine nature before he can be able to endure trials and live the kind of life pleas- ing to God. Rev. Roger Mason, Chris- tianview . Bible . College teacher, from 11 Cdrinthians 3:18, spoke on how we should see God's glory in our faces. God's glory always accom- ,panies God's presence. What /does it mean tobehold God's glory? First set our attention of our mind and spirit toward God. When should we behold the Lord' glory?. While praising,Him, in the church, in our homes, wherever we are. Who should we behold? The Lord, not other people or things. This is not to overlook reality, but to .pray for betterment of bad things while beholding the • Lord. Why should we behold the Lord? To be transformed, when we are not living as we should. Looking to God in . faith will help us. January 16, Sunday morn- ing, Teen Challenge from '. Hamilton willbe,taking part in the service. They will have a 15 voice choir, with musi- cians, performing unique drama skits. Ex -drug addicts will be sharing their ex- periences, of victory over drugs. of God" taken from the Living Message contil)ued based on Psalm 121. We are reminded of how our fears can take over and destroy our lives, but if we turn to our Lord for our strength in times of trouble and fear, we can be sure of His help. An inspirational reading by Edythe Murdy was given, which reflected on the New Year as a time for new begin- nings in our lives. A time to 'take stock' and compare our ways to the ways of Jesus as He calls 'us to follow Him. A letter from Rev. Henry Kakekayash, our prayer part- ner in the North was read, acknowledging our gifts sent prior to Christmas. The secretary's report by Joyce Sovereign and treasurer's report by Edythe Murdy were presented and approved. The meeting concluded with the joining of hands and reciting the grace in unison.
