Roger Mason, teacher at Christianview Bi- ble College, as guest speaker. Rev. Mason. from Psalm 94:12-13. spoke on how God can use adversity to deveiop in us strong Christian character. God can give us a calm mind in the face of dif- ficult circumstances. No Christian is immune from dif- ficulties. God can use these to bring benefits to us. Adversi- ty can be multiple problems piled on us at the same time, which satan can use to devastate a Christian. But God can use adversity to make us a stronger Christian, to bring something beautiful in our eves. First God uses it to get our attention. We are not to allow circumstances to take from God, as in Luke 21:31. From a simulated satan's planning session, Rev. Mason showed how satan's plan is to get all the Christians so busy they forget about God. Second way God uses adversity is to test our work for Him. in chur- ches, and in our lives. , Matthew 7:24-27 shows how a house built on human plans, the sand, fell under test. The house built on the rock, Jesus, stood the test. is our work based on the 'foundation of God's word? 'third way God uses adversity is to cause us to examine our lives. Sometimes we have drifted away from God. 1 Corinthians 11:31-32 tell us God will chasten us and we should judge ourselves. doing a spiritual inventory. We can learn from the eagle Who uses turbulent wind to help him to fly higher.'The Lord wants us to allow diver- sity to bring us closer to Him. The higher the eagle flies the more he sees, lifting him above harrassment God wants to lift us above the troubled life. The high winds allow the eagle to float on them faster and longer. When we allow God to work. we can benefit from His help, lifting us above the circumstances, and give us a peaceful mind. Sunday evening Doug Williams ministered singing Rise Shine. Rev. C.J. Williams spoke from Romans 8:35 and 7:15-25 showing Paul had his problems with sin. While we reach out to find God, we can be overwhelmed by the law of sin. We were wicked people before God saved us.

For Craig Gala Days There was fun, food, fellowship, peace By ALICE DICKENS Ailso Craig "Fun, food, fellowship and peace." These words by the 1983 Gala Days Grand Mar- shal , Rev. Alec Simpson stun up the feeling of many who I enjoyed the annual Ailsa Craig festivities. Large crowds partici ted in many events and enjoyed some fabulous entertainment while relaxing under the shade of the 'big top.' The feature event as usual, was the grand champion tur- tle race. This year's winner was Marsha Sutherland, youngest daughter of Mary and Bill Sutherland, RR 3 Ailsa Craig, as her turtle Chelsea, edged out Pepper and the adult class winner Skippy-Doo owned by Hill Stewart. Pepper, the Manitoba turtle and 1982 Canadian Champion won the purebred stakes and placed second in the grand championship behind Chelsea.

Winnie also provided accom- paniment for the joyous hymn singing, the prelude, offertory and postlude. The offering was received by. Jerry Lynn and Brad Scott. Sam Taylor of Hensall, formerly of Clandeboye and Swift Current. Saskatchewan told the children a delightful story, pointing out that the church is people and all children of theworld.,blackor yellow, red or white. are God's children. In his message to the con- gregation. Mr. Taylor told of his experiences at the Chris- tian Men's camp in Banff the last few years, and pointed out the need for love in the world: - (ie said we all have three "me's", one. dressed in white with a halo, sits on one shoulder. one dressed in black and red, carrying a pitchfork on the other, and the body "me". The guy in white usual- ly leads, but occasionally the bad "me" gets control. The good "me" loves peo- ple as pointed out in John 15 as it is God's will that we love one another. God wants us to show our love for each other in the clasp of hands, the kiss on the cheek, a hug, even just showing appreciation for what others do for us. The flowers in the sanc- tuary were from the funerals of the late Gladys Reilly and Margaret Shea. The prayers of the congregations are ex- tended to their loved ones. Next Sunday the service will be in charge of the Lucan Sunday School with Jim Robertson as speaker and with special music.
