Young people confirmed at St. PauI's -Fourteen young people were confirmed into the full com- munion of the Anglican Church on Sunday at St. Paul's Anglican Church by Rt. Rev. H. F. Apple - yard, Suffragan Bishop of Huron. The confirmees were introduced to the Bishop by the rector, Rev. T. K. Hawthorn. ° Bishop Appleyard spoke, in his sermon, of the antiquated lan- guage of the service, which has so much meaning: "Defend, 0 Lord, this thy servant with thy heavenly grace, that he may con- tinue thine forever; and daily in- crease in thy Holy Spirit, more and more, until he come into thy everlasting kingdom, Amen." "But," he added, "people do not talk today as they did 400 years ago, years ago, 10 or even five years ago. Five years - ago, words like `rights, rebellion, protest, violence' and strangely enough, even `love', were con- stantly in use. Today words like `unemployment, affliction, poverty, development, under- developed nations', are new words in use but not new ideas.". "The Kingdom of God was a form of 'movement'," he con- tinued, "a growth, such as a mus- tard seed. St. Paul speaks of "growing up in Christ, growing in grace". The Christian life is a continual growth in all of these things and as growth continues it becomes a development. As tiong as we live there will be this' pro- cess; if we continue to stay as we are we are not living the Chris- tian life." "The season of Lent is not really a self-discipline," he said, "but a season of growth, of per- sonal development. In " Genesis the Bible refers tothe beginning of the world, iirRevelation to the end, the return to the city of the God, and this is what all Chris- tians must strive for. All the other things of society, growth, concern, development, justice, are all part of this. If we are not concerned with all these aspects cif life and in society, we are not • living as Christians should." - in closing, Bishop Appleyard spoke of confirmation and _ the role it plays hi the life of the .young people: "Confirmation is a part of the further development of the Christian life, a desire for growth in the life of a Christian, and if put into daily practise, development will follow. The situation in which the world finds ' itself today, - will only change as there is growth and' development in the lives of people who say they are Christians." The choir sang the anthem, "Beside the Still Waters". A coffee hour followed the serv- ice when friends and members met with i the confirmees who were Craig Brydges, Larry Milo- sevic, Steve MacKay, Brent Fox - ton, Jamie Smith, Andy Foxtop, Paul Connell, 'Brenda Foxton, Christine Foxton, Carla Smith, Ruth Nethery, Cathy Foxton, Esther Nethery and Karen Whit- by.
