United Church Women, which met Wednes- day evening in the C.E. wing of the Church. Kit Hearnled in Worship and study on the theme "How Jesus brings life to the Poor." The worship time Included hymns and Scripture ,Feadings and a meditation which pointed out that Jesus chose to associate with the poor of His day because of His love for them. He ministered to them by healing them, living in solidarity with them, and pro- mising them the Kingdom of God. Kit continued using a present day case study of a single mother on welfare who found acceptance and a sense of worth through a compas- sionate woman who reached out to her and others like her. Linda Froats continued the study as she described an in- cident in Nepal in which an old and weatherworn woman was able to give help to one who seemed to be strong. The group considered how Jesus took bn the role of an humble and insignificant person in order to minister to all mankind. During the business .meeting the decisibn was made to undertake a Friend- ship luncheon in April, and a committee was appointed to plan this event. Donna closed the meeting as she played a record by Simon and Gar- funkel which gave food for thought. Susan Reis and Jane Forster served a delicious lunch, and all present enjoyed a time of fellowship around the table. Sunday morning, preceding the regular worship service at Lucan United Church. a good number of folk gathered to en- joy the monthly hymn sing. K.L.

Her prayer that the Lord would help her find it was answered, and she learned that when we trust Him, He is willing and able to help us with each of the problems in our lives. The children and congregation sang the Scrip- ture chorus "Be still and know that I am God" as a reminder of that truth. Jane Forster ' was in charge of Junior Congregation for the morning. The choir's lovely anthem, "Spirit of God" challenged those present to listen for the Holy Spirit's guidance. Rev. Brown continued his series of messages on the Christian home. In' a day when many evil forces unit to destroy our civilization, the Christian home has a primary importance. For a home to be Christian, it must be more than an attractive house. It must be a place dedicated to the God who created and redeemed us, a place where Christ is known and loved, and where His instructions for living are obeyed. It is a place where wedding vows are honoured and where members love and help each other.

Everyone needs a Christian home, for it supplies a sense of security and a God-given setting where love can be ex- pressed and received and where Christian character can be built. Such a home is possible only when Jesus Christ is invited in to be Lord there. Mr. Brown reminded the congregation that.

Lloyd Hooseinny ministered from Revelations, chapters 1-3. The letters to those seven Asian churches in chapters 2 and 3 covers the entire church age, and are factually existing today. This book of Revelation as in Chapter 1:1 is of Jesus Christ, who He is, what He is, shown to His servants. To each of these seven churches Jesus gave commendation, condemnation, and prophecy. What the church really needs today is a revelation of Jesus Christ. Chapter 1:13 -tells Jesus was in the midst of these churches, holding the ministers, the messengers, of these churches in His hand. Revelation 2:2 states that Jesus knows this church's works. He tells each church He knows their works. This church at Ephesus was com- mended by Jesus for all their works. But He rebuked them because they had lost their first love. Sunday morning Rev. C.J. Williams introduced guest speaker Rev. Lloyd Hossien ny from N.S. Rev. Hossienny ministered from 1 Samuel 17:1-11, the story of David defeating Goliath. Ephesus 6:10 tells us we are to be strong in the Lord. We are not to be strong in our own ways, but to rely on the Lord. Goliath relied on his own large size and his armour. This battle between Israel and the Philistines came down to between Goliath and someone from Israel, the out- come to be the loser would serve the victor. Goliath call- ed for someone from God's camp, defying Israel, who was afraid of him. Sunday evening Rev. Lloyd Hossienny returned to the story of David and Goliath in 1 Samuel 17. In verse 10 Goliath asks for a man to fight against. Goliath represents Satan fighting the church of God. David is a pic- ture of Jesus Christ who over- came Satan at Calvary. David answers this call to fight while Goliath was breathing out his defiance of Israel. As David went down to humiliate and defeat Goliath, so Jesus came down from glory to humiliate Satan on the cross when He died to set LEADERS) CARS — Fifteen leaders raced their cars at the Huron District Kub Kar Rally in Hensall.
