At the last Lucan council meeting, a revised budget trop► the board of education was presented to council. The residential elementary school mill rate will be 20.150. instead of the 26.457 formerly set. To the average Lucan taxpayer. based on a residential assessement of $14,000, this will mean a difference o[ $4. in the total school levy. Previously the school levy total was $86.20 per household, now it will be $82.93. The total amount to be raised for the elementary schools has gone from $183,393 to $165,225 Lucan Rev i1 al ('entre Sunday morning June Quinlan played the piano while she and Lor- raine Armitage sang "All That Thrills my Soul". Rev. Roger Mason ministered from Ruth 1: IK. Although the book of Ruth starts with tragedy. it ends in joy Fust the family of Naomi had to leave their homeland of Israel to go to the enemy land for food. Then Naomi's husband diets. then both her sons died. leaving her with two daughters-in- law. in a foreign land. Naomi decid- ed to go back to Israel. One daughter in law, Ruth, decided to go with Naomi. Ruth expressed that Naomi had made a great impact on her life by her faith in God. This verse shows Ruth wanted to spend her life helping Naomi, and serving Naomi's God. By this we see the great influence a god- ly mother had on her daughter-in-law. Rev. Roger Mason introduced Gary Schlegel Sunday evening as the guest speaker. Mr. Schlegel spoke from Matthew 21:21-22. stressing the tact that faith must accompany prayer. Linked with God. Christian has the power 10 believe his prayers will be answered.
