Sunday Church Service The sermon was entitled "In" or "Constant". What is a 'steward?' One entrusted to care for the belongings of another - a 'care'taker. Hosea relates the manner in which God's Chosen Peo- ple have forsaken their call to be 'care'tpkers of God's Creation. Paul, in telling us to pray for those in positions of authority reminds us they are placed in their -positions to be our'care'takers'. In early times rulers were kings - kings were believed to have received their position as a divine right - authority coming from God alone - Republican revolutions were seen not only as radical events but also as sacrilege. The words of Jesus in Luke's Gospel Lesson were about an unscrupulous steward. By definition , a steward cannot be unscrupulous. All three of the passages in the message call us to responsible lifestyle. They also call us to live by one stan- dard. God sets out one (and only one) set of rules for all his 'stewards' to follow. It may appear to be 'in' not to be a good steward at times but God calls believers to be constant in their faithful fellowship and following of His Son.

Bob Sinasac's sermon topic Sunday morning centred on Chris- tians having open attitudes to other members of the family of God who may worship in a way different from our own. The enthusiasm and excite- ment of people coming alive in Jesus Christ will always challenge us in the area of our attitudes. We need to be mindful and accommodating to those who wish to pray with their eyes open or closed or raise their hands when singing as symbolic of their praise, surrender and outstretched hearts reaching heavenward. Our christianity is founded on the love of God who sent His Son to die for us, therefore, our attitudes need to reflect similar love to every member of the Body of Christ. Decoration day service "Faith of our Fathers" was the theme of the Calvary United Church Decoration Day Cemetery Service at installed the Goshen Rd. site. Rev. Sinasac challenged everyone to grow in the faith that was left to us as a heritage from our forefathers. The Judeo- Christian ethic must grow as a stan- dard and Jesus Christ be real to peo- ple if our generation is going to leave for its children what our forefathers left for us.
