Citizens
hold `vigil'
On Sunday, November 21,
concerned citizens from
Goderich, Clinton,
Kingsbridge and St. Joseph's
travelled by bus to London to
join with Southwestern
Ontario's "Concerned
Citizens for . Life" to hold
"vigil" outside of London's
Victoria Hospital to grieve
for the lives of some 2000
children who have been
killed by induced abortion in
the city of London annually.
The opening ceremony
outside Victoria Hospital
was led by Mr: Boersma of
Woodstock and Father
Loebach of Goderich,
stressing the significance of
public grief. Mr. Boersma,
representing some 75 Pro
Life supporters' involved in
the vigil, said,' when in-
terviewed by London's
CF PI, TV that "the right of a
citizen stops when it .,in-
terferes with the life of
another." "In that sense,"
he said, "abortion is a
crime."
Protesting 'the "vigil"
were some 10 pro -
abortionists led by Noreen
Gunn who . countered
Boersma's basic positionby
stating: `-`We don't believe
-that any •outside agency,
group, state, or religion
should make that decision
for the woman."
Tfiis meaYr -that aside -
from her conscience, the
mother 'Can exercise ab-
solute control over the life of

totally beyond any check or
balance by any societal
institution or authority
whatsoever.
The "Citizens -for- Life"
vigil will be kept every
. Sunday from 2 - 4 p.m. at the
Victoria Hospital in London
in the hope of stirring the
consciences of the Canadian
public. All concerned
citizens are invited to join
and can inquire for
arrangements by calling Mr.
H. Boersma of Woodstock at
539-2356.

baby's breath.
Bridesmaids were Janice
Ferguson of Stouffville and
Kathy Kinch of Toronto,
friends of the bride. They
were gowned the same as the
matron of honor and carried
similar bouquets.
Groomsman was Douglas
Stapleton of London, friend
of the groom.
Guests were ushered into-
the church by Warren
Howard of Toronto and
Randall Howard of
Waterloo; brothers of the
groom. "
Ringbearers were Mark
Mierkalns of. Amherstburg
and Colin Pickell- of
Goderich, nephews of the
bride.
Following the wedding
ceremony, a reception was
held at the LambtonShrine
Club in Sarnia.
For a wedding trip to
Southern California, the
bride changed to a tapestry
rose ensemble with orchid
corsage.
Mr. and Mrs. Bryan John
Howard are now residing in
Gorrie.

People live by seasons.
There are seasons for sports,
seasons for cultural events,
and especially there are the
four seasons that dictate, for
the most part, the rhythm of
our lives.
So also in the church, we
have seasons. Just last Sun -

make God known in the most
understandable way possi-
ble: by His becoming man in
the person of Jesus. And that
tonlatronv -ezknow; .ade
us - sur e, if -we-were-ever in
doubt, of God's love. For
Jesus was ready and willing
to die on the cross to save us.
There are two main
themes underlying this
season of Advent. During the
Your weeks; we are firs -of all --
invited to look ahead to the
coming celebration of
Christmas. We do not pre-
tend that Jesus is still to
come; certainly our whole
Christian Way of Life is bas-
ed upon this truth. We live by
the wonderful truth that God
loves His people. How
much? Holy Scripture is a
history of God reaching out
to man, revealing Himself
through the prophets and the
events of history until finally
He sent His Divine Son to
.And-sa, or one whais_truly
a follower of the Way of
Jesus, this time is one of
joyful waiting in preparation
for the celebration in the
Liturgy of the birth into the
world of the Saviour.
The second theme of Ad-
vent looks to the future.
Jesus spoke very clearly
that there would be another
Coming, a Parousia. That it
will happen, of that we are
sure. When? No one knows!
But it will be a time when

REFLECTIONS OF HIS
LOVE, a- new film

ministry of Joni Eareckson,
will be' shown on Sunday

Methodist Church, 51 Vic-

Miss Eareckson is the star
of a recent theatrical motion

the story of her diving acci-

left her paralyzed from the
neck down. It chronicles her
struggles to piece together
her life and her faith in God,
in spite of the devastating
circumstances.

HIS LOVE, Miss Eareckson,
who is also the author of two
best-selling books, JONI and
A STEP FURTHER, tells of
the great transformations
that have taken place in her
rife because of her will-
ingness to accept all the.
things that have happened to
her.
A remarkably talented
young ' woman, Miss
Eareckson . is an artist of
great merit, , as well as an
author, actress, and singer.
She has learned to draw and
paint with a brush held in her
mouth. Her works have been
displayed in major exhibi-
tions, as well as on a number
of network television pro-
grams. More recently, her
lustrations and paintings
have become the basis for a
major line of greeting cards,
plaques, and framed prints.
those who seemed foolish
and stupid in the eyes of
unbelievers, will be revealed
as the true sons of God.
Unbelievers and wicked
men also know deep down
that a day of reckoning will
come. But, in their stubborn-
ness, they try to drown out
such unsettling thoughts by
-hurling, -themselves into
every kind -of pleasure -
seeking. There is a real
temptation for Christians to
imitate them. Their lives
seem to be without worry -
seesn to -bye full- sof joy, -But -
we know by our 'faith that
they are living in a fool's
paradise. They try to forget
the future because they can-
not bear to face it. Not so the
true followers of Jesus who
look forward to the Coining
of Christ. As the Gospel for
the 1st Sunday of Advent
reads: "when these things
According to the Reverend
Ronald Ashton, pastor of the
Free Methodist Church,
REFLECTIONS OF • HIS
LOVE introduces the viewer
to "the real Joni Eareckson,
We meet her parents, her
sisters, and her friends. We
gaininsight into the thoughts
of the actors who played ma-
jor roles in the movie, JONI,
and we learn of her new per-
sonal ministry, Joni and
Friends."
Pastor Ashton has extend-
ed an open invitation to the
community at large to at-
tend these special screen-
ings. There is no admission
charge.
't'We feel everyone who at-
tends will be touched by the
remarkable life and witness -
of Joni Eareckson. It's really
an unforgettable ex-
perience," he concluded.

Advent emphasizes this at-

Jesus, which should be an in-
tegral part of his year-round
life - prayerful waiting, even
longing for the Coming of
Jesus who will bring to com-
pletion the salvation we have
