CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1978-PAQE 7
ews from Hensall
By Hilda M. Payne
Services were resumed
in Hensall United Church
last Sunday after a four-
week ,recess with Rev.
John Wareham of Exeter
in the pulpit. The sermon
was on the subject "God's
Handiwork".
It should 'always be
remembered that all
people are God's hand-
work and should be
treated as such. Labour
Day is a time for new
beginnings and is a good
time to review how we
treat those with whom we
come in contact. Many
need help, and we should
learn to recognize these
needs and reach out to
people. A personal,
human touch is what is
needed many times
today.
Officiating at the organ
was Richard Fujarczuk
of London who played,the
Fugue in D. Major by
Bach in place of an an-
them. Richard has been
at the console all this
summer.
Next Sunday, Rev.
Wareham will be with us
again and Sunday school
classes will resume. Unit
4 will meet on Thursday
September 7 with a pot
luck dinner at noon.
