Mr. McDonald spoke on the subject
"Christ Our Friend" as he began a
series of thoughts for Lent of stories
in the Bible of people who intended to
witness against Christ but unwitting-
ly proclaim the truth about Him.
He took his text from the Gospel of
Luke "This man receives sinners and
even eats with them." He stressed
that Jesus reveals that he is a friend
of sinners and that God in Christ
receives us. sinners that we are. He
welcomes us' to the embrace of his
love. He invites us to celebrate at his
sacramental table and offers to us
there a foretaste of the feast to come.

Important" and Mr. McDonald used
a chain with different colours and
important, though different, in the
sight of God and each one of us has
an important task to do.

busy week, as they played four
games. On Monday February 25 the
boys hosted Seaforth to an exhibition
game, which was fast and well
played. Hensall had to work to keep
up with the W.O.O.A. team, but when
the final whistle blew it was 4-0 in
favour of Seaforth.
On Wednesday February 27 the
Lucan 1 travelled to Hensall to play
their final game with Hensall in the
Huron -Perth House league schedule.
Hensall lav back as they were confi-
dent; without the strong game by Rob
Wareing and defence it wouldn't have
been a five -five tie. Lucas went ahead
three -nothing in the first period.
Brian Moir assisted by Jim Dickins
and Shawn Vanstone put Ifensall on
the score board in the second period.
Brian Moir assisted by Jason [manse
once again scored in this period to
bring his team within one.
Lucan popped in another one at the
beginning of the third, only to have
Brian Moir, again assisted by Jason
Imanse, respond for Hensall. Jim
Dickins assisted by Brian Moir and

On Saturday March 2 the boys were
up with the sun as they travelled to
Mitchell for an 8:00 a.m. game. It pro-
ved that the boys should be early
risers as they defeated Mitchell 15-1.
Shawn Vanstone, assisted by Amy
Phillips, opened the scoring for Hen -
sal] with just two seconds gone in the
game, and from there the boys never
looked back. All but one of Hensall's
boys were able to hit the mark at least
once and not until the middle of the
third did -liensall's defence let Mit-
chell through long enough to put one
past Rob Wareing.
Later on the same afternoon the
boys travelled to Huron Park to play
a make-up game they had cancelled
in January due to storm.
Both teams were determined to
win. It was a fast. hard-hitting game
and if not for the defence and the
brilliant saves made by Rob Wareing
it would have been a different
outcome.
Huron Park went ahead in the first
period at the three-minute mark and
the crowd went wild. llensall came
back on a goal scored by Jim Dickins
assisted by Rob Taylor. al the 1:12
mark of the second period and the
Hensall fans brought the roof down.
The third period was scoreless. en-
ding in a 1-1 tie.
The next game for the Hensall Ban-
tams will be Saturday March 9 when
they travel to Exeter for a 10 a.m.
game. This is the last scheduled game
for the boys. They travel to Kincar-
dine on March 16 and 17 to a tourna-
ment and their final playoff tourna-
ment is March 23. We wish the boys
all the best in the upcoming games.
