CENTRALIA - On Sunday, June
23, the congregation at Centralia
United Church gathered for the 10
a.m. worship service. Ellen Graham
accompanied the hymns on the or-
gan, and Judy Mills was pianist for
the service.
During the children's story, Pas-
tor Smith spoke about the many
perspectives it is possible to have.
While some people view the world
in a very one-dimensional light, the
dragonfly sees 26 images at one
time. The world is 'very different
when viewed under these different
citcumstances.
Karen Windsor led the respon-
sive reading from Psalm 83:1-10
and 16-17 and the scripture from
Genesis 21:8-21. Pastor Smith's
-sermon following the scripture was
'intitled "Is' This Your Idea of A •
Good Time God?" She addressed
the scripture reading when Abra-
ham sent Hagar and his son Ishmail
into the desert. His other son, Isaac,
had been born to his wife Sarah
when she was 90 years old. These
two sons were the beginning of the
Jewish and Muslim faiths, accord-
ing to Pastor Smith.
Shirley Prance, a former member
of the congregation, has written
from her new home in Penticton,
B.C. For anyone who would like to
write, her address is 296 Brandon
Ave., Penticton, B.C.
