St. Thomas members attend 132nd anniversary of St. Patrick's By Muriel Lewis GRANTON - There was no ser- vice at the St. Thomas' Anglican Church on Sunday, but members of the congregation attended the 132nd anniversary at St. Patrick's Church, Saintsbury. In his message, The Reverend Stephen Emery enlarged on the op- portunity of worshipping the true God. At the Granton United Church on Sunday, Pastor Nonnalie Voakes entitled the Communion Meditation "Glimpses of Grace" and the les- sons were taken from Revelations 22 and John 17 The anthem "City of Light" was sung by the choir. Flowers in the sanctuary were from the funeral of Maurice Din- smore. Following the service, there was a Grandparents' Tea for the Sunday School. Court Valentine The ladies of Court Valentine Fo- rester's Lodge met at the home of Florence McRobert last Monday evening. Marie Huiscr presided and led the business discussion. A donation was made to the Children's Miracle Network Telethon and arrange- ments were made for Nora Wissel h iii?itsE'5i:r:::i[is�ti� .. a;:g " '•C�;V v ,.: '.'p:iqy5-f .... }:: : ?' :3:;75.5'i ..ns .5 !;t. c.,G f,,�,i r%a><? .` '< 4.:: r' ... `l"f .: •. •M1.. 3...:. :,:::::....V The fust 11 chapters of the Old Testament book titled Genesis tells the story of the origin of the universe; and, in two different versions, it explains the creation of humanity. The life stories about God's "children" that take place after their a eation speak of envy, tempts- , Sierioniffertagentdtthe toil of daily vittikAltrthalseeirtningoFdiapter 11 there is a story about many people speaking many languages. The Great Flood in chapters seven and eight is long over. People are settling down and rebuilding towns. Using their God-given abili- ties they invent things. In the tower story of chapter. 11 they invent a new kind of building material. The people are no longer limited to the stones nature provides! Now they use air-dried clay bricks. To bind them together they use tar or mineral pitch. The people invent materials and techniques that liberate them from their natural envi- ronment. Still, the people are anxious and insecure. It shows in their desire "not to be scattered over the earth." They want to establish their se- curity by doing something together. They want to overcome their lack of direction by building something together. They want a sym- bol for their unity. The people are frightened of being separated, and their response is to do something positive. They want to make a name for themselves. The materials they have invented and.the techniques they have per- fected have given them a new power with creative possibilities. As they explored those possibilities the people began to wish for immor- tality. They wanted to make a memorial for themselves - a sign to show how great and powerful they were. God sees what is happening, considers it, makes a decision, and takes action. God makes it clear there is a boundary between the Creator and Creation. God is concerned about what the people are doing. Not because God's ego is at stake. We would misinterpret the story if we asked, "What kind of God is this - who feels jealous and threatened by hu- mans?" As originally wriuen in the Hebrew language the story sug- gests - in a humourous way - God had to come down a Tong, long way before God could even see the tower - although to human eyes 11 seemed so huge. God understood the reason for building -the tower wassp There was no respect for God - there was no respect for the gifts God had given the people - there was no respect for God's creation. So God intervened and offered the people a challenge. Not to build towers reaching into the sky - but to create dwelling places here on earth. This was and is God's plan for those who trust in God. Like many of you I don't have really high hopes for the Earth Sum- mit to be held in Rio. Lots of talk and little action is the traditional outcome of such gatherings. But, if it puts the environment on the front page for even a couple of days it will have done some good. The Tower of Babel story is God's reminder to us that our survival is not a question of having a strong tower - but of having a strong re- lationship with God. To hve a full life means to live wisely with the rest of creation.

Air Show attracts 25,000 GRAND BEND - With the grace of a soaring eagle and the precision of a fine watch, the nation's best pi- lots put on a show last Tuesday night which we'll never forget. The Canadian Armed Forces acr- obatic team, The Snowbirds, de- lighted an estimated crowd of 25,000 at the Grand Bend Air Show. While the crowds attention was held for over an hour with several other acts, the Snowbirds, the eve- ning's grand finale, were definitely the highlight of the show. From a distance they wailed as the lights of the Canadian CTI14 Tutor jet trainers came into view and began to do many formations including a maple leaf, a heart and their famous diamond. Sdme said the Snowbirds made them "proud to be a Canadian". Grand Bend mayor Tom Lawson said, although there were some mi- nor errors which were to be dis- cussed at a de -briefing on Tuesday, everyone seemed to have a good time. "We had so many fine compli- ments including those from people involved in the show," said Law- son. This was the first air show ever held in the village and there are plans for the event to be held again. "The recomm on is to do it not every yl we'd like to do 't again in 1994." Although the Snowbirds, led by London's Major Bob Stephan was the highlight of the hour -and -a -half long show, the other planes drew &kip breaths from the audience as well.
