Vandal gets sent to jail Concerned about an in- crease in acts of vandalism in the area, Lucan OPP detachment officers have noted a jail sentence in a Minden court for a similar offence. Judge G.F.W. Irwing sentenced Christopher A. Martin of Toronto for the theft of two Highway signs valued at $56. Martin had been travelling northbound on Highway 35 on August 2 at 4 a.m. when a Minden OPP Officer noticed two posts sticking out from the trunk of his vehicle. The posts, it was discovered, were attached to two signs, one depicting a car on a steep grade and the other advising "Trucks use low gear". A hand saw was also located in Martin's car. In sentencing, Judge Inrig stated Martin's actions were more than a mere prank. He deliberately cut the sign down and this -action could conceivably have resulted in the death of an unsuspecting car or truck driver.

Revival Centre At the start of the morning service Doug Butler and Martha Sullivan sang "Without Jesus Where Would I Be". Rev. Ray Brewster spoke front Exodus 15:1-21, the song of rejoicing and redemption. As the Israelites had a right to sing and dance before the Lord, so we sho have been redeem- ed andsetfree from sin have a right to rejoice. The prin- ciples of God's character the Israelites rejoiced in are the same today. There will always be adversities in life, but God will always triumph when we walk according to God's word. When we praise and worship God, we then must prepare ourselves to be a fit place in which God can live. Our lives must be a place before God and others where we exalt Him. God's private possessions are us, His peo- ple. so we cannot look like the world. When people persecute us, we return love to them, as God says vengeance is His, He will repay. We can worship God because He is leading us unto Himself. Mr. William Davies con- ducted the evening service. and Gary Schlegel spoke from Judges 6:11 - 22. All Christians are called to live as God would have us live. Just as God "saw the poten- tial in Gideon to be a mighty man, so God sees our abilities. will use us to do His will. regardless of our excuses. Many men of God had excuses, but He helped them do great things for Him. Upcoming events Wednesday, at 8:30 p.m., the Bread Of Life, a Thanksgiving Tea will be held in the Fellowship Hall of Lucan Revival Centre. Mrs. Laura Emerson of Kitchener will be the guest speaker.

Minor injuries sustained Three vehicles involved in crash Three vehicles were in- volved and the same number of persons injured in one of eight accidents investigated this week by officers of the Lucan detachment of the Anglicans Worshippers coming to Morning Prayer Service at Holy Trinity Anglican Church were greeted by Beth, Bryan and Heather Smith. The Old Testament lesson was from Ezekiel 18:1-4, 25- 32 and read by Betty Ankers. The New Testament lesson was from Phil 2:1-13 and read by Andy Van Geel. Rev. Pocock's message was based on the readings appointed for the day. From Mt. 21:28-32 we find Jesus talking to the Pharisees who prided themselves in being very religious, taking care to show how they followed the law but in living their lives were anything but religious. Ezekiel warned his people to give up their evil ways and become as God wanted them to be. In accepting Jesus Christ as our Saviour we must also accept His teachings in becoming Christians. He asks us to turn from our wicked ways and become new creatures with new minds and hearts. Our life is Christ makes us strong, and His love com- forts us. We have fellowship with the Spirit and kindness and compassion for one another. He urges us to have the same thoughts, share the same love, and be one in soul and mind. Jesus is the Way, it is not an easy way that He asks us to follow but one which leads us to peace of mind and heart and greatest of all to life everlasting. Are you showing to the world that you are a Christian by your actions and love or are you like the Pharisees? Flowers in the sanctuary were from the funeral of the late Emma Langford and the late Shirley Bilyea. Our sympathy and prayers go out to their families.
