Church Service
Rev. Robert Matheson .was in
charge of the Remembrance Sunday
service. Rev. Matheson told the
children's story entitled "Searching
for Peace." The choir sang the
"United Nations Hymn" accom-
panied by the organist Miss Agnes
Bray.
Rev. Matheson read the scripture
lesson from Zechariah 7:1-10, II
Thessalonians 2:13,3:5 and Lucl
20:27-38.
The sermon was entitled "To Wht
End?" Well over half of the populi
tion of North America was born afte
the Second World War. This causes u
to have a different perception of wa
from those who are older. WI
perceive was to be a needless war
of human talents, ima:ination
energy and life. But that is the con-
sciousness of a young North America.
a person such as Adolph Hitler - some
even emulate his ideas, today, in the
mistaken notion he represented
freedom from oppression.
In the last 72 hours I have been one
of the many shocked to learn the
United States government may have
agreed to send arms to Iran in return
for the freedom of Americans held
hostage in Lebanon. If this is true then
we see North Americans fuelling a
war fought on both sides by children
often between the ages 10 and 12
years... a kind of blood bath which is
completely alien to us; or is it?
In actual fact there is war in North
Amercia - but we fail to talk about it
- it somehow desn't include us and yet
we do feel the wars impact on our in-
surance premiums.
A meeting of the Official Board will
be held on Monday, November 17 at
8 p.m. in Thames Road Church. The
Official Board consists of members of
