Finally, a reminder that the pool closes 'on Friday, September 3rd at 4 p.m. Revival Sunday morning Rev. C.J. Williams ministered from John 15:1-8 and Galations 5:22-23 concerning bearing fruit spiritually. One of the ex- periences a person notices when he is saved is he begins to act differently. He will begin to produce spiritual fruit. It takes a lot of work for trees to bear good fruit, likewise it takes work for a Christian's life to produce fruit, and God gives different gifts to His people. When God gives a gift to a Christian then he is responsi- ble to use that gift in God's service. The Holy Spirit's energy is what produces fruit in Christian lives. Just as gardens need cultivation and weeding, so our lives need spiritual weeding to grow pro- perly. We can try to produce fruit ourselves, but only God can make this fruit grow, by His Holy Spirit in people's lives. Rev. C.J. Williams led the singing for the evening ser- vice. Visiting from Rochester, N.Y., Doug Williams, accom- panied by his wife Roberta on the piano, sang "The Touch of God", as his testimony of what God has done for him.

Elvin Thornton talked on walking with God from Genesis 5:25, and Psalm 91. One sign of walking with God is that we have fellowship with Him. If we are walking with God, as Enoch did, someday Jesus will say to us, "Come on Hnm o" Walking with Jesus is to love as He loved. Today the least thing tears Christian brothers apart. Walking with God is walking in His love, in holiness, a changed life. To walk with God means to care. To be ready to walk with God we must let Him cleanse our lives. Walking with God means we will have the com- forter, the Holy Spirit as our guide and we will have blessings in our 1`ives, w will show people that God with us. As we walk with God, we are a part of Him, and belong' to Him and His church. August 27 a benefit concert is to be held for Rev. Ray and Becky Brewster's ministry in Haiti.

Thank you to all members of council. friends at Lucan United Church Sunday and it was particularly nice to see Rev. Keith and Mrs. Brown back from their holiday.

However, he was back in the pulpit on Sunday and feel- ing much better. Mr. Brown commenced a MR. AND MRS.

We should rejoice in God's power even as the Israelites rejoiced as they passed through the sea on dry land, said Mr. Brown, God is still in the "quality control business" and has a definite plan for our lives. Mr. Brown said he needed to experience what he has been going through for the past two weeks in order to ap- preciate and understand the sufferings of others. In our daily lives we influence everyone for good or bad and God wants it to be for good, thus He "tries" us and this is the reason for our suffering and trials. Let us take a lesson from the Psalmist and let us tell others what God had done and is doing for us, advised Mr. Brown, and let us be sensitive to what God is doing, that he is alive and at work in His world. Mr. Brown thanked everyone for their prayers, cards and visits, saying they meant a great deal to him.
