Post Easter
Jesus is sometimes referred to os The Lamb,of
God who takes away the sin of the world At
Easter it is easy to see why this name is so
appropriate
It was the custom in Jesus day to make a
sacrifice to God of the best one hod as a sign
of obedience and faith At the Passover celebrn
fion the sacrifice was o fine young Iamb the
best you could afford offered to God on o special
altar The people of Jesus day understood very
well the signilicanen of this annual ntunl
It is oppropr ate then that God would choose
to sacrifice His best His Only Son spotless and
without blame Jesu't willingly became the Lamb
of God put to death on the altar of n cross, in
the place of all sinners of all time who belteve
that His sncrifire was complete final
Jesus ,The Lamb of God that tokes away the
sin of the world hos earned forgiveness for
everyone who trusts in Him and His great Oct of

A small room in the basement of the On-
tario Street United Church in Clinton was
transformed into a symbolic "upper room"
last Thursday evening as men,- women apd
children from at least half a ' den
denominations reinernbered Christ's last
supper with His disciples.
"A great deal of research awl planning, as
well as a lot, of hard work by the•Christian
Fellowship Club of the Clinton High School
went into making,the evening so successful.
The members of the club were encouraged
and helped by•their math teacher and staff
advisor, Linda Garland, who generously
undertook to organize and cook almost all of
the food for the meal.
The Passover seder is a very moving ex-
perience. The word seder means •"order"
and there is a very definite order to the pro- '
ceedin'gs. Everything has a meaning. This
special tradition is celebratedby.the Jewish
people every spring to commemorate God's
deliverance of the Hebrew nation from bon-
dage in Egypt over 3,000 years ago. The ser-
vice has been arranged in such a way that
each participant become personally involv-
ed and actually begins' to feel a part of the
ancient miracle.
Rob Adams,' a Grade 13 student' at Clinton
High;School, first considered the idea of a .
Passpver feast several months ago, and
began to study up on the subject. He receiv-
ed much .Practical help and information
from' Colleen Maguire, a Goderich.
.photographer,'who has,'been privileged to be •
a guest at an authentic Jewish Passover
celebration..
Rob, and the other members of the Chris-
tian Fellowship Club were very grateful to
Linda Garland, for her assistance and were
greatly amazed at her culinary skills. But,
the Passover seder does more than give a
full belly — the richness and beauty of the
service fills the heart as well.
Government makes committ ent to end violence
The Ontario Association of Interval
Transition Houses is pleased to.
. acknowledge the efforts of Ian Scott, At-
torney General and Ontario Minister for
Wm -lien's Issues and John Sweeney, On-
tario Minister of Community and Social
• Services recently when they expressed the
government's commitment to "stem the
tide of family violence in Ontario".
The Ontario Association of Interval
Transition Houses 1OAITH) welcomes the
announcement of the additional $7.1
million providing a total of $12.5 million to
address primarily legal enforcement and
victim assistance.
OAITH is pleased to note that $3.
• million has been allocated to further sup-
port the work of existing shelters for bat-
tered women.
However, the organization is concerned
that only $300;000 has been provided for
shelter expansion as this will not meet the
demand identified, by shelter workers, par-
ticularly in view of the increased
awareness anticipated by the upcoming
public and professional educational
awareness campaign.
OAITH •is encouraged by the en-
thusiastic acknowledgement of their ex-
pertise which leads OAITH to expect that
the increased dollar allocation will allow
for improved salary scales and staff ratios'
in the proposed new funding formula. •
• OAITH looks forward to co-operating in
a consultative manner with the Ministers
in the design of this new funding formula.
