Home My WebLink AboutTimes-Advocate, 1988-02-24, Page 13Set for March 4 Thames Road UCW hosts Day By MRS. WILLIAM ROHD1. Rev', Teddy Smits was in charge of the First Sunday in Lent church scrvicc on Sunday morning. We read the Beatitudes responsively. In his children's story the Rev. Teddy Smits told about a young boy, very clever with his hands, who made a small boat, complete with sails. On the first fine day in spring he took the boat to the big lake to try it out, but, suddenly let slip the string holding_ the boat. which soon drifted away on the big waves. He. was sorry to have. lost his boat, the product of many months of work. When school holidays came he went to visit his uncle who lived further north on the same lake. On his first walk through the town he discovered his own boat, on display to be sold in a store. He went in and told the storekeeper "That's my boat!" The storckccper said "You can buy it, or else, get out." He asked how much it would cost and the man said S3.(Xl! He counted all that he had in his pocket, -and he was one penny short. The storckccper grumbled, but let him have it for that price. When the boy picked up the boat, he said• "Now I own you twice. First I made you, now I've bought you.". God owns us twice. First He Made us, and later on He bought us with the life of His Son. Mrs. Arnold Cann read the scrip- turclessons. -• For his sermon the text was St. Matthew 26:25 "The Judas%the one Usborne & Hibbert Mutual Fire Insurance Company Exeter, Ontario NOM ISO (Established in 1876) Provides Full Insurance Coverage for Town Dwellings_ ' as well as Farm Properties DIRECTORS & ADJUSTERS Jock Harrigan RR 3 Wain 227-4305 Robert Gardner RR 2 Stoffo • 345-7739 Lloyd Morrison RR 1 St. Marys 229-8277 Lorne.Feeney RR 2 Dublin '345.2543 ' Jack-Hodgert RR 1 Kirkton 229-6152 Joseph Choffe RR 5 M!Ithe11 348 9705 i AGENTS Ross Hodgert Woodham John Moore Dublin Joseph Unioc Mitchell 229-6643 345-2512 348-9012 Head Office Exeter 235-0350 Fire -extinguishers for -sole at below cost to our policyholders who would betray }Lim said: Surely not Rabbi?" A traitor is shunned by everyone. In 1795 the French Army invaded the Netherlands, the Dutch prince fled to England in a fishing boat, and the Dutch people felt so hope- less against Napoleon's troops. But once the French troops discovered the first river in the south of Hol- land, they were forced to stop. From one of the farms a Dutch farmer emerged. yc asked to see some of the officers, and he took them to some part of the river Card parties at Centralia By Mrs. TOM KOOY Owing to the weather a smaller crowd than usual gathered at Hey - woods Restaurant for an afternoon of cards.

The disciples wen. absolutely hor- rified when Judas came to their mas- ter, together with a group of temple police and kissed the Master, thus identifying Him .for the arresting police officers. Soon after that Judas realized the horrib:e mistake he had made. He threw the money paid to him for his treacherous act in the temple, and he committed suicide. All disciples condemned Judas. But they had never befriended him, aad he was allowed to remain an outsider. Thcy carried_ part of the guilt. Jesus, up till the last, held -the door open for Judas. God always leaves a door open for us, even when the world may condemn us. World Day of Prayer Thames Road U.C.W. is hosting the World's Day of Prayer on March 4 at 2 p.m. Theme speaker will be. Rev.
