at Revival Centre
New Year's Eve a delicious

Williams was in charge of the
Watch Night service.
Lawrence Cruttenden as
guest speaker, said pie one
thing that seems/to be on
everyone's minas the uncer-
tainty of what does 1984 hold?
The Christian is able to have
a different perspective. The
basic problem today is self
interest:
The world looks around in
fear, while the Christian looks
up, beyond the clouds. In Mat-
. thew 24 Jesus told of the signs
of the end time. Matthew
24:36-44 Jesus stresses the im-
portance of being ready when
He returns. Jesus said we will
not know the day or the hour,
but we can know the season.
Jesus said the time He
comes will be like in the days
of Noah, the people will not be
looking for His coming. A
Christian is to be watching,
their spiritual life ready. -
One is to be diligent in
employing the spiritual gifts
God gives. Matthew 12:30
warns if a person is not
gathering with Jesus he is
scattering. In gathering pro-
cess one is called to be a
witness of Christ. Our top
priority in gathering should
be in putting God first. That
is why JestaLs,aid to watch
continually, that things don't
crowd out our spiritual life. A
life really committed to Christ
will really show by actions
towards others, in how one
handles material possessions.
The parable •of the 10
virgins shows how one needs
to be ready for Christ's com-
ing with one's communion
with God. We have a God who
-wants us to have communion
with Him; so that He can use
us as His hands and feet.
After communion Was served,
Rev. Williams stressed the
communion is a memorial of
the real reason for the com-
ing, dying, and the resurrec-
tion of the Lord Jesus Christ.
In communion one looks back
at what Jesus did, looks in-
ward and upward to His
coming.
Will Jesus come in 1984?
Are your ready?

United Church news.
"New Things" was the
theme of Mr. Brown's New
Year's message on Sunday at
Lucan United Church. "Christ
makes all things new", said
Mr. Brown.
When a person received
Christ as Lord and Saviour,
he becomes a new creature
with a new heart and spirit
given by God. He becomes
part of a new covenant which
is characterized by friendship
with God. He becomes a new
man inwardly who lives for
--God'and His purposes. Out-
wardly also, the change is
seen in a new attitude to
others,. one of truthfulness,
love, kindness and for-
giveness. A new song comes
to those who let Christ
transform them in these ways
and their joy overflows in
praise to God and witness to
others.
Ivan Hodgins told the
children a story about a blind
man who planned to do many
interesting things with the
help of his seeing eye dog.
Many people today are blind
to their wrong ways, and
God's good ways. But if we let
Jesus lead us and we use His
eyes, we can live the way God
wants us to. This is something
we can do to make the world
a better place in 1984.
Lynda Froats with
Tabatha, Neil and Jamie
welcomed worshippers as
they arrived at the church,
and also received the offer-
ing. Flowers in the sanctuary
were from the funeral of the
late Lyle Revington. The
prayers and sympathy of the
congregation are with the
Revington family at this time.
