Schools remember
The trumpet played its sad la-
ment, and as the Last Post sounded,
the 900 gathered at the Lucan Com-
munity Centre bowed their heads to
remember.
Wednesday, November 11, a spe-
cial Remembrance Day service was
held in Lucan for area school chil-
dren, members of the Lucan legion,
and residents -of -the Lucan area.- - _
Jointly planned by the staffs of
Biddulph - Lucan and St. Patrick
School, and Branch 540 (Lucan) Le-
gion, the ceremony had become an
annual event in the community.
Planning for this event began in
September, and gathered momentum
as November 11 approached.
In the weeks prior to the event,
teachers worked with students to
prepare essays, poems, and posters
on a Remembrance Day theme.
Choirs in schools began rehearsals
to prepare musical selections for the
assembly.
When guests arrived on the 11th,
they were greeted by ushers from
the schools and entered the hall to
find the walls covered with posters
created by students.
The ceremony itself was a very
moving one. After the choirs of
Biddulph-Lucan PS performed "For
All the Saints" and "When a Child
Lights a Candle", thc colour party
of the local legion paraded into the
hall to the strains of bagpipe music.
As the colour party stood on
stage, Reverend Bruce Pocock deliv-
ered a message to the audience about
Remembrance Day and the meaning
of the Last Post and Reveille. This
was followed by a stirring rendition
of The Last Post and Reveille,
played by trumpeter Paul Sanvidotti
of UWO, London.
Wreaths were placed on behalf of
many local groups, and Douglas
Reycraft, MPP for Middlesex, laid
the provincial wreath.
After the wreath laying ceremony,
the several primary children from
St. Patrick school presented "I am
Free", a brief description about what
freedom means to young children.
This was followed by readings by
Jennifer Heckman and Amy Sulli-
van, who presented their prize win-
ning essay and poem. The service
United Church is
filled with music
Lucan United Church was filled
with music for Sunday's morning
service, conducted by Rev. Shaule,
which was based on Psalm 150. It
reads "Let every thing that hath
breath, praise the Lord" the old
hymns of the Church and the new,
all blending together, soaring hea-
venward, in love.
The assembly, always well attend-
ed was especially pleased to wel-
come Terry Clifford MP, who
brought a flag, a much larger flag
than the one now standing, more in
keeping, he said, with the stature of
the Church.
"The Clandeboye Room" was de-
dicated as well as the upper floors of
the Christian Education wing which
contains the library, Church secre-
tary's office and the minister's
study. Refreshments followed.
In his sermon Rev. Shaule talked
of the intimate relationship Moses
had with God, how he was able to
plead for the sins of the children of
Israel, even as Jesus intercedes with
High Father for us today.
We live in a time of constant
change and we have been forced, be-
cause of our environment, to accept
these changes but our spiritual
lives, are not subject to any such
ruling, so, as we believed as chil-
dren, we believe today, the only dif-
ference being our degree of faith and
our closeness with God.
The children's story, told by Mrs.
Chris Schatzler was on "Light", the
importance of it, the different types
of light, it's uses - to dispel dark-
ness, to cast out fear, to promote
growth etc. - Jesus is the Light of
the World, so each child with Jesus
in his or her heart can make a differ-
ence, in a dark, indifferent and
sometimes uncaring world.
The year of the 125th celebrations
is not yet over so keep abreast of all
the happenings in the next weeks as
the year winds down.
A family Christmas Dinner is be-
ing planned for Friday December
18, and of course the big Snow
Flake Bazaar and Bake Sale on Sat-
urday November 28 starting at 11
a.m. '
A very impressive evening was
held Friday, November 13, when
the anniversary committee hosted a
Crafts 'N Action evening. It featured
members of the Church Family dis-
playing and showing what they do
as their hobby.
Although the size of the crowd
was disappointing, the displays
were excellent - quilting, hairpin
lace, crocheting, wood carving, flor-
al arranging, soapstone carving, ce-
ramics, embroidery, painting, bead-
work, calligraphy, knitting, sewing,
history and scrapbooks, cross stitch
and photography were featured. A
tea room served delicious dainties.
Revival Centre
Pieter Schinkleshock read Mat-
thew 7:7-12 opening the Sunday
morning service. He asked all the
children to come to ,the front.
Showing them his broken glasses,
he explained making mistakes
means they have to go to Jesus for
forgiveness. Then it is fixed right,
just like he will get his glasses
fixed.
Rev. Roger Mason ministered
from Mark 9:42-48, concerning of-
fences. In verse 42 Jesus warns
against causing children to stumble
in serving Him. Also to be careful
not to do things to cause new
Christians to stumble. Jesus had
just rebuked the disciples for a
wrong attitude. A wrong attitude
can offend other Christians. It is
important that mature Christians set
the right example in dedicated rela-
tionship with God.
Rev. Roger Mason welcomed all
who came to the combined service
Sunday evening before leading thc
song service. The United Church
Kid's Choir happily sang I'm Gonna
Walk, and Love One Another.
Miss Jane Robertson led in re-
sponsive reading from Psalm 119.
From the Bible Community Church
a Couple's Quartet sang Only One
Life. Pastor of the Bible Communi-
ty Church led in prayer. Mr. Doug
Butler of Lucan Revival Comic
sang Because He Lives.
