Sunday t1 �morning Rev. C.J.
Williams said none of us real-
ly understand the impact of
what will happen by the com-
ing again of Jesus Christ.
Christians need not worry as
they will not be in danger
then, as God is saving us out
of this:
There is today tribulation in
the world, but Jesus has not
come yet. Matthew 24 tells of
the situations we will face
before Christ returns. It took
a long time until the Messiah
came when Jesus was born. It
took time for Jesus to grow in-
to man and to die to be the
Saviour of the world. But it
happened just as God said it
would happen. Some pro-
phecy still has not been fulfill

(formerly Lucan)
ed. The Bible says when you
see things happening as they
did In the days of Noah, then
look up because your redemp-
. tion draws nigh. The coming
of Christ is near. The
wickedness of men today is as
bad as in Sodom and
Gomorrah.
Because no one knows the
time Christ will return, no one
can set the date. There will
come a day when the
believers are gone. Nothing
will then prevent the forces of
evil on the world. When Jesus
comes to take His church out
of this world, many will leave
unfinished business behind.
But all those who love the
Lord will go to be with the
Lord. All those who died ser-
ving the Lord will rise first,
then all alive will rise to meet
the Lord, to be with Him
forever.
The Bible says there will be
scoffers in the last days
before Christ returns. Jesus
went through the same kind of
scoffing as we today. Christ
died to provide an escape
from the wrath of God. God
will destroy those who are His
enemies.
God has given us a contract
that is dry as dust to those
who do not read it, but life to
those who do. We know God's
promises when we study His
contract. We need to know
God is desirous to supply our
needs.
Upcoming events - Sunday
morning, January 22, Rev.
Walter Head from Kitchener,
will be giving a slide presen-
tation of the Mission Work in
Haiti.
Sunday evening Nick Mur-
ray led the song service, while
Wendy Robertson was the
pianist. Rev. C.J. Williams,
from Mark 9:17-23 said that
believing is acting on faith. If
we act upon a statement of
fact from God's word, we ex-
ercise our faith in believing
God.
TIRE CALLS
The Lucan volunteer fire
department has answered
four calls so far this month, a
mutual aid call to a home in
the Parkhill area, an
overheated furnace at the
O'Brien home, William
Street; a chimney fire at the
Vanneste home on the third
concession of McGillivray
and the latest one to the home
of Randy Paul, Beech Street,
where an electric wire had
burned off the outside of the
house. The local calls were
minor for which everyone is
most thankful.

Ed Dowdall, presiding for the
business meeting.
Mr. Dowdall advised that

mation available regarding
the new building. He thanked
Ed Armstrong for providing a
1984 calendar and Marjorie
Steeper for making out the
tally cards. A letter of thanks
is to be sent to the Junior D
hockey team for the cards
donated to the Sunshine
group.
Elsie Gibson, tour con-
vener, reported that the only
date left to attend the "Geritol
Follies" in Hamilton was
Saturday, June 23. So this
UCW hears speaker from
Meadowcrest Homes group
Mrs. Ruth Brough, ex-
ecutive director of
Meadowcrest Homes was
guest speaker at the January
General meeting of Lucan
United Church Women held
Wednesday evening at the
church.
Mrs. Brough got the vision
for these group homes for
mildly retarded people and
psychiatric patients during
her years as a social worker
at London Psychiatric
Hospital, as she searched for
better ways to serve these
people.
She recognized that when
people with these problems
are regarded persons of
worth, and when they have
the support of caring people
and are given opportunity to
do something worthwhile,
they will live at their "crest."
This is the philosophy
underlying the success of
Meadowcrest Homes, which
are classed as models of this
level of care in Ontario.
Presently there are two
homes located on Highway 7
near Lucan and another near
Nairn. A fourth, to be located
near Coldstream Conserva-
tion Area, is in the planning
stage.
Flora Robertson led the
women in a beautiful New
Year service of worship bas-
ed on God's promise to
Joshua, "Be strong and of a
good courage. Be not afraid,
Anglican Church
Greeting the congregation
at Holy Trinity Anglican
Church on the second Sunday
in Epiphany were Pat and
Jim Davis. Morning prayer
was the order of service and
readers of the appointed
lessons were Bill Smith and
Joyce Sovereign.
Prior to the children leav-
ing for Sunday School, Rev.
Pocock dedicated the new
hymn books used by the
Junior Choir. They were
given to the glory of God and
in loving memory of the lov-
ed ones of those who donated
them.
Based on the reads s for
the day, Rev. Po ck's
message was timely a one
of great significance the
church today. How do you
find God?
Just as Jesus asked His
first disciples, "What are you
looking for?" He continues to
ask this timeless question of
His disciples today and ex-
tends the same invitation to
"Come and See." These
words invite us all to look, to
consider, to see where He
dwells, and possibly to find
His quality of life and make it
our own.
Next Sunday following the
Eucharist everyone is invited
to a potluck luncheon in the
lower hall. After lunch the An-
nual Vestry meeting Will be
held and the children will be
entertained and cared for
during this period.
neither be thou dismayed, for
the Lord thy God is with thee
withersoever thou goest."
Flora pointed out that trust
in God, based on His promises
and uponw hat He has already
done for us, is the key to a
confident outlook upon the
New Year.
Following a time of
fellowship over refreshments,
president Mabel Froats
chaired the business meeting.
Members approved executive
recommendations that a
Learning for lent programme
be undertaken again this year
in late March and early April
and that several other annual
projects be continued.
Mabel Froats reminded the
women of the World Day of
Prayer, to be held this year at
the Revival Centre on Friday
March 3 at 7:30 p.m. The
women of St. Patrick's
church are in charge of selec-
ting the speaker this year,
and each of the Lucan and
Clandeboye churches will be
participating in some way.
She urged all who can to
consider attending the Mid-
dlesex Presbyterial UCW an-
nual meeting, to be held
Thursday February 9 at
Calvary United Church in
London.
Sacrament at UC
The sacrament of the
Lord's Supper was celebrated
Sunday morning at Lucan
United Church. The choitts
lovely prayer anthem, "Lord
Jesus Think on Me" added to
the worshipful spirit of the
service. Leroy and Nancy
Maguire were in charge of
welcoming the congregation,
and Barb Bigson of Junior
Congregation.
Mr. Brown's communion
meditation was entitled,
"Precious memori. s of
Jesus." Just as favorite
photographs help us preserve
memories of loved ones, so
verbal pictures of Jesus as we
find Him in the Gospels help
us see God as Jesus revealed
Him.
Jesus on the mount
teaching His disciples and the
common people is one such
picture.
The picture of Jesus in the
boat with His disciples calm-
ing the storm is a reminder
that He is Lord of creation
and able also to give peace
and poise to us as we meet the
storms of live. Jesus with His
friends Mary and Martha as
He raises their beloved
brother from the dead, is
another picture that pro-
claims that He is the Lord of
life who has defeated death
and its power. The picture of
Christ on the Cross speaks to
us of His great love for us as
He makes it possible for our
sin to be dealt with, and our
deepest needs to be met. It is
this picture that Jesus asks us
to remember especially when
He said of the Lord's Supper,
"This do in remembrance of
me."
The Mission and Service
Committee of the Charge are
happy to announce that the
$8000 goal for mission giving
for 1983 was surpassed by
more than 81000. Clandeboye
congregation also has worked
hard to assure that this objec-
tive for the joint Clandeboye-
Lucan charge was achieved.
Elders are asked to note that
the Session meeting schedul-
ed for this Tuesday has been
postponed until January 31.
Senior choir meets Wednes-
day at 7:30 and the Friend-
ship unit at 8:30. Prayer and
Share Fellowship continues
its study of Peter's second
epistle Thursday morning at
9:45 and that evening at 8:00,
the Official Board of the
Pastoral Charge meets in the
C.E. Wing of the church.
Next Sunday, Lucan's an-
nual congregational meeting
will be held in the C.E. Wing
following church and lunch.
Those who come are asked to
bring sandwiches: and finger
desserts. Homemade soup
will be provided.
ACW meets
The Afternoon Group of
Anglican Church Women met
on Wednesday at the home of
Helen MacDonald, with
Marion Hodgins in charge of
the meeting.
The devotions began with
the reading of an inspirational
poem of Helen Steiner Rice
entitled "What Will You Do
This Year That's So New?"
The choice is yours - God
leaves that to you. In keeping
with the theme of the new
year, Gwyn Whilsmith's col-
umn "It Seems To Me" on
resolutions was read and each
agreed that life certainly is
too short "to dwell on the pet-
ty events when there are so
many wonderful things to
take up our time."
The Scripture lesson was
read by Joyce Sovereign. The
meditation was, taken from
the Living Message. The
dogrway of a new year is a
chance to start again with
fresh resolves. Jesus said, "I
am the door: if anyone enters
by Me he will be saved and
will go in and out and find
pasture." The door is always
open; we can enter a renew-
ed life at any time we choose.
Edythe Murdy read a letter
from our Prayer Partner
thanking us for the bale which
was shipped in the fall.
Edythe will be giving out yarn
for those who can knit -
children's mitts and toques
are always greatly needed.
The meeting closed with all
joining hands and repeating
the Grace together. The
hostess served refreshments
which included samples of the
members Christmas cakes,
and a time of fellowship was
enjoyed.
