T -A photo S S watches Ants Hillvania An open session of Lucan United Church Sunday School responded en- thusiastically Sunday morning to a presentation of "Ants' Hillvania", a musical drama presented by Lucan Revival Centre's Young People. Like the Prodigal Son in Jesus' parable, young Anthony learned the hard way that "You win or lose by what you choose!" The regular worship service of the Church followed at 11 a.m. Chris Schatzler told the children a story about four little friends who discovered how they can help to build the Church together. Junior Con- gregation followed for the children. Rev. Brown continued his sermon on the meaning of Salvation with the theme "Healed by the Wounds of Jesus". "God loves us and desires the best for us," said Mr. Brown, pointing out that this is the theme of the whole of, Scripture. Early in their history, God reveal- ed Himself to His people as "the God who heals", promising to "vaccinate" them against the physical diseases suffered by their neighbours, if they would obey Him. But His people chose to go their own way, and suffered the evil consequences of sickness, suffer- ing and death. Sins of the body, im- pure thoughts, and negative emotions each bring their own list of physical problems. The Scripturestpoint out that through the Cross, God provided not only for our forgiveness but for our healing, for Christ "bore our in- firmities and carried our diseases", and "by His wounds we are healed." As His people today, we have much to learn about receiving this provision of God for us. Gordon Froats was in charge of welcome and ushering for the day.

News from Revival Centre Sunday morning orgai$ music played by Mrs. June Quinlan enhanc- ed the piano played by Mrs. Lorraine Armitage. Rev. Roger Mason spoke from II Chronicles 32:10-15. Hezekiah was a good king of Judah who refus- ed to pay tribute to Assyria as his father had done. King Sennacherib of Assyria took several cities in Judah, and tame to take Jerusalem. In verse 10 the enemy Assyria tries to cause the people of Jerusalem to doubt their loyalty to their city. The devil tries to create doubt in Chris- tians against God's word. But Hezekiah had encouraged the people that God was there to help them as God was greater than the enemy. Secondly Sennacherib tried to create suspicion in the people that Hezekiah was deceiving them in us- ing them. The devil tries to create suspicion in God's people about their leader's motives in building up God's work. In verse 12 the Assyrians tried to bring dissatisfaction to the people in Jerusalem. As a godly king Hezekiah had destroyed all the idol worship in Judah, bringing worship of God to Jerusalem. Sennacherib tried to ap- peal to the dissenters of lfezekiah's reforms to cause internal strife in Jerusalem. Satan tries to do the same in the church when leaders try to bring reform. Rev. Roger Mason Sunday evening read II Samuel 15:1-6, the story of King David's son Absalom winning over men of Israel by sowing dissent against the king. A dissenter organizes a group loyal to him as Absalom did in verse 1. Next in verse 2 he makes himself available to people at the city gate. The city gate was an entrance to the city, as well as being the city meeting place. It was also where judicial matters were settled. There Absalom sought out men with grievances to speak to them, and agree with them. A dissenter takes up offences with those who have grievances. He will insinuate things that are not true. Absalom told peo- ple no one was appointed by the king to hear their cases, suggesting the king had no time for them. A dissenter suggests he would do better. Absalom in verse 4 strongly sug- gested he would do judgment right, if he had authority. Then Absalom did in verse 5. Upcoming events Tuesday evenings, at 7:30 p.m. there is to be Kid's Club under the leadership of Mrs. Judy Ross. Sunday, February 23, in the Sunday morning service, Ants' I lillvania is to he presented. All welcome.
