Living Word
LUCAN - What an exciting day
it was after all the rain as the Liv-
ing Word Congregational Church
met again Sunday at the Lucan
Public School Auditorium. The day
was just beautiful.
Sunday school started things off
with a couple of songs and actions,
"When You're Happy and You
Know It" and "I Am a Promise" and
reciting two verses of scripture
Mark 10:45 and John 1:29 then off
to their classrooms.
The message was quite different
but, extremely interesting and was.
shared by Bruce and Jan Karr as
well as Muriel Cobleigh. They
were at the 164th Annual Confer-
ence of the Congregational Chris-
tian Church in Ontario. -
The real message of it was
"Coming Together, Freedom and
Unity in the Spirit". This group of
churches is what our church plans
to join in a few months down the
road. Rev. Darrell Shaule was in-
stalled as a Minister of the Congre-
gational Christian Churches in On-
tario and Larry Cruttenden was
installed as a Lay Minister.
What an exciting day we had to-
day and June has more to come.
Tuesday night Bible Study will
continue as usual. For more infor-
mation please call Rev. Darrell
Shaule at 227-1296.

mony began, where boys who had
grown in their section and were
ready to move on to the next, were

Revival Centre news
LUCAN - Lucan Revival Centre
held their annual Church Family
Picnic Saturday, June 3 at Market
St. Park. The picnic meal was a
varied smorgasbord of salads, hot
main dishes, andappetizing des-
serts, which members enjoyed out
of the rain.
The rain quit after the meal, ena-
bling the children to enjoy their
games. They ran from little ones,
to juniors, to parents, in sacks,
wheel barrow races for candy prizes,
which the children enjoyed. While
playing the washer box game, rain
hit again, ending a happy picnic.
• June 4
Sunday morning Mrs. Judi Ross
told about Biblical Safari to seek
the Spn, for children 2 to 8, to be
heldduring church time. Rev. Rog-
er Mason ministered from Acts 8:1-
19. Disagreements and controver-
sies on interpretation of the Bible
can cause misplaced religious fer-
vor. The wrong belief that becom-
ing a Christian means an easy life
is proven wrong by Matthew 5:11-
12 that there will be trials.

thank them sincerely for giving me
the opportunity, as President, to
lead them into the 90's. I promise
to do my utmost to be worthy of
the trust placed in me and with the

we cannot help but succeed.

On June 1 six representatives of
the Lucan Legion attended the
'change of command of the Huron
Middlesex Cadet Corps at Huron
Park. We were most impressed with
the progress made by the corps over
the past 15 years when it was
formed under the joint sponsorship
of the Exeter and Lucan Legion
Branches. We congratulate the Offi-
cers and Instrtors for their dedica-
tion and for a job well done.
Finally I would like to get my
hands on the culprits who, during
the hours of darkness on Saturday
night, decorated my home with
placards, balloons and streamers. To
the 'Guess Who' Comrades thank
you from the bottom of my heart, I
love you all.
And that's 30 for this week - Re-
member - The man who succeeds in
life is not the one who is always
putting others in their place, but,
more often, the one who can put
himself in the others place more of-
ten.
