The celebration started at 6:00 p.m. with hotdogs barbecued by the Ven- turers. 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. At 7 p.m., the Trooping -up cere- mony began, where boys who had grown in their section and were ready to move on to the next, were sent on with encouragement from leaders and chums to be received and welcomed by members of the next section.

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.

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.
