Ray Brewster con- ducted a quiz with several of the men who had been briefed the quiz was to be on their favourite sport. But instead as it was on kissing the resulting answers were quite hilarious. Roger and Kathy Mason, using the theme of "rhe Twelve Days of Christmas," did a humorous skit with several church members on Rev. Ray and Becky Brewster's life since coming to the church in Lucan. Closing the evening the guests enjoyed the quartette "Living Waters" as they played and sang several songs. Rev Ray Brewster told of the headlines in the paper showing no peace in the world. After reading Isaiah 9:6, he talked of how this prophecied of Jesusto come as the prince of peace, to all mankind. When Jesus was born the angels announced peace to the world. Peace can be ours through Jesus, God's son. Sunday morning the song leader was Rick Rose. Mrs. Marlene Thornton, with the children sitting around the front, gave them an object lesson on reflections, using Christmas balls. As clean ball shows good reflections, so our clean lives reflect Jesus. Mrs. June Quillan and Mrs. Lorraine Armitage sang a duet. Rev. Ray Brewster read the Scripture telling of God's great plan of redemption. When Adam and Eve sinned it brought separation from God, as sin still does today. There was and still is no way to separate man from this sin on his own. Only God can cure man's sin problem. God gave His son Jesus Christ to set us free, breaking satan's rule. For the evening service Rick Thornton wasthe song leader. Mrs. Marlene Thorn- ton read the start of the Christmas story before leading thechoir in singing "My Soul Doth Magnify the Lord."
