Catholic news
April'2 marked the Second Sun-
day of Easter in the Catholic liturgy
at Immaculate .Heart of Mary
Church. Father Paul Beck was cel-
ebrant at all the weekend Masses.
Doctor James Jean was reader at the
11 a.m. Mass, joined by his wife
Beth, to serve as Eucharistic Minis -
ters during Communion. Roberta
Walker was cantor, Paul Dietrich
was organist, and Dolores Tighe di-
rected the choir in "Come Down,
Lord" at Communion.
. The theme of Father Beck's ser-
mon was "Keep in Touch". We
feel the need to keep in touch with
friends and relatives when they
move away. As a community of
believers, we must also keep in
contact with Christ, who is present
among us when we worship. When
we stay away from the church, like
Thomas, we begin . to doubt, and
lose our faith. We need contact -
where the community is, there is
Jesus.
During the Easter Vigil, many
people throughout the London Dio-
cese were received into the Church
as new Catholics. Bishop John
Sherlock will officially welcome
these people on Wednesday: April
19 at a 7:30 p.m. Mass in St. Pe-
ter's Cathedral in London. Every-
one is invited to attend.
United Church
Rev. Ted Smits held the service
at Grand Bend United Church. In
his children's story Rev. Smits
showed them a golden egg, and told
the children about Greed - how the
farmer killed the goose that laid
golden eggs, to get all the gold in-
side. When you grab for .too
much, you can lose it all.
In the sermon Rev. Smits took
as his"text the words of St. Luke
24:32 "Did not our hearts glow as
He was talking to us?" The two
disciples on the road to Emmaus
were bewildered and disheartened by
the turn of events - Christ's arrest,
crucifixion and death. But a strang-
er joined them on the road, explain-
ing these events in the light of
scripture, and when He broke bread
with them, they recognized Him "It
was Jesus." Christ still goes
among us, setting our hearts
aglow.
Bible Study
The Bible Study was attended by
18 ladies at the Sauble Court
Lounge. They welcomed a new
member, Beth Bumstead.
Eleanor Durie opened with a read-
ing. Annabelle Walz led the discus-
sion, as they finished Study 4 on
Philippians 2. In it Paul encour-
aged the Christian Church to show
a willingness to serve Christ and to
guard against selfishness; prejudice
or jealousy.
We, should develop an attitude of
humble service, even when -we
aren't likely to receive recognition
for our efforts. Christ was the per-
fect example of humble service in
Gethsemane "Father, not My will,
but Thine be done." How amazing
that the perfect Son of God should
die a shameful death on the Cross,
so that we won't face eternal pun;
ishment.
Vera Brown closed with prayer.
All ladies are welcome to attend the
Tuesday morning Bible Study at
9:30 a.m. in the Sauble Court
Lounge.
Discuss

on assessment for the shared cost

Stanley water line
residents have indicated they want
water service.
Council .expects to hear by mid-
month on whether or not the envi-
ronmental assessment on the pipe-
line is approved by the ministry of
the environment. Another neces-
sary step would be a provincial
grant covering a major portion of
construction costs. If the project
gets the green light, and no proper-
ty owner objected, work on the
line could begin by fall.
Don Southcott attended the meet-
ing to sound out council on their
Bonus concert

School Band and Choir will per-
form a varied program under the
new direction of Dave Williams.

tain a ticket at the door. The price
is $6 for an adult and $2 for a child.

new season tickets or tq.zir.skase

feelings about allowing condomin-
iums on the lakeshore.. Present
zoning in the secondary plan stipu-
lates one cottage on one acre of
land. Councillors indicated they
would want much more informa-
tion before making any decision.
Ministry of the environment rep-
resentative Ron Farrell discussed
with council the possibility of
funding for a hydro line to the
township land fill site. The elec-
tricity would be used for a perma-
nent installation to pump water out
of the pit. Farrell also left infor-
mation on recycling. Clerk Mel
Graham believes recycling could re-
duce the amount of garbage by 20
to 25 percent.
Two severance applications were
approved. In one, land owned by
Lois Hayter at lot 14, concession 7
is to be divided into two parcels,
one containing 100 acres and the
other 45. Harvey Marten's applica-
tion divides part lot 11, concession
13 into two lots.
The cost of building permits is
going up. The current rate struc-
ture does not bring in enough to
cover the costs of inspections.
Some examples of the new rates,
with the old in brackets,arc: new
house $200 ($125); addition to
house $75 ($40); new barn $75
($60); implement shed $50
($40)garage $50 ($40) and deck $35
($25).
A donation of prizes for the canoe
race to be held April 9 was ap-
proved.
• A switch to evening meetings for
the summer months will be made
after the April 11 meeting.
