Emerson, of Kitchener International ' Gospel Centre, as guest speaker. Rev. Emerson's church is actively engag- ed in support for Christianview Bible College. Rev. Emerson stated, from John 15:16, that all of God's children are ordained for specific things. This scripture states that Christians are chosen, ordained, aid are to bring forth fruit. Where does this anointed ministry begin? First, in salvation shelter's that produces fellowship with the Lord. Submitting to God's- will will bring one's philosophy in line with God. The world's philosophy is to lie, steal, or kill. The philosophy of religion showed in the story of the Good Samaritan in the actions of the priest and the Levite. The philosophy of the Good Samaritan was to answer the call of the needy. This is the need today to have a commitment to the Lord to help others. The Samaritan way is the Jesus' way to help others. Rev. Emerson read Isaiah 40:39-41, stressing waiting on the Lord to have strength. He closed encouraging the Bunny Bundlestudents to wait on .the Lord. Dr. G._ H. Nunn presented graduating students Lloyd' George with a Bachelor of Theology diploma, and Ms Gail Damon with Bachelor of Religious Education diploma.

But then he "adopted" a Grandma and brought joy to her as well as to himself. The choir's lovely anthem, "Lead Me Lord" brought a message of faith and encouragement to the congregation. "To Be Continued" was Mr. Brown's sermon theme for the mor- ning. Early in His ministry, Jesus outlined His mission to the world. This task of His He handed on to His disciples to continue in the power He gives. We too are called to announce God's good news to those who are either physically or spiritually needy, to release those who are captives, to give sight to the blind, and to set at liberty those who are bruised. Jesus emphasized that in response. to such a ministry God is always at work to meet the needs to those who respond in faith and obedience. Mr. Brown challenged the congregation to recognize the privilege and respon- sibility of engaging in this ministry which Christ has given us.

Refreshments were provided by Bernice Lockyer. Revival Centre Rev. Roger Mason Sunday morning invited Mrs. Lynda Ropchan, and Mark Alward and Marie Alward to come to the front to be welcomed in- to membership of the church. Rev. Mason introduced Rev. Evert Gagnon, from St. Catharines, to be the guest speaker. Rev. Gagnon spoke from Ecclesiates 4:9-12, stating "Somebody needs you". This scrip- ture says two are better than one, speaking of friendship: Sometimes we get lonely, depressed, as Elijah did. God came to him. You could be just the one somebody needs to turn to. Matthew 18:19 assures that if two agree in faith it shall be done. it is im- por,ant to make yourself available to agree with someone in faith. Rev. Roger Mason again introduc- ed Rev. Evert Gagnon as the speaker Sunday evening. Rev. Gagnon ministered from I Kings 8:1-11. Let the temple be filled with His glory. The enemy must first be con- quored. In James 4:1, and 11 Corin- thians 4:8 we read of wars, conflicts and fightings. One way to get.rid of these is to justgive up. The scripture way is to defeat the enemy to ex- perience and enjoy peace. Upcoming Events Blossom Tea - Wednesday evening - all ladies welcome.
