KIM DYKSTRA BEREA-BY-THE-WATER LUTHERAN CHURCH THE BOTTOM LINE -Which book of the Bible do you like best, and why?" That was the question that the youth Bible class was to briefly report on. And they came up with some interesting answers. He's got a great bottom line." Bill's study probably consisted of little more than checking how the various books ended, but most experienced Christians would tend to agree with Bill's conclusion. St. Matthew's bottom line is Jesus Christ's promise to every -Christian. It is a promise that Jesus made after He had risen from the MINISTER'S STUDY dead. His promise: "Surely I will be with you always, to the very end of the age." (Matthew 28:200. This promise from our risen Lord serves as a basis for serene Christian living and confident hope. St. Matthew could not have chosen a more potent punch line fon his Gospel. He quoted Jesus saying that He would be with his peo- ple forever — lo help them; to comfort them; to assure them. Jesus plainly wanted us to know of His living and loving presence in our lives. And He wanted that towering utaa Witted u4shakably in the forefront of our mind and heart. He wants us to con- fidently believe His promise, because life has so many ups and downs. There are joys and disappointments. There is also that last walk in the valley of shadows. Can there be anything so faith -firming as the knowledge of our Saviour's presence every step of the way? When measured in terms of peace of mind, in terms of confident living, and in terms of hope - full dying, St. Matthew has a great bottom line.. - "Surely I will be with you always, to the very end of the age."

Board must address issue of/full funding this year The Huron County board of education board, has decided to not consider putting has to take the initiative to -meet with a high school in Huron until 1988. That representatives of both the Catholic school same board is putting' a Catholic high board and private schools, says its new school in Perth County this September. "But other groups are also con- templating separate secondary schools and that contemplation is going on now," said Clark. An interdenominational. group from north Huron, Perth and parts of Wellington County had considered building a high school south of Wingham. That idea is now on hold. Clark suggested the school board start advertising the good things about public education. "We must also look at what we are doing and discuss the concerns thatvarious groups have with public education. Perhaps some adjustments and accom- modations will have to be made to keep various groups within public education," he said, adding, "I feel . we have at this time a particularly unique opportunity in Huron County to enter into discussions with the various groups; an opportunity which if not seized may not present itself . again."

Clark gave his inaugural address at the board's Jan. 13 meeting. The address focused on the question of full funding, not only for Catholic secondary schools but for private schools. "During the election the most frequently asked -question that I had to address was, 'What is your position on the extension of funding?' In true political fashion, I did not directly answer the question - my response was and still is `I am pro -public educa- tion'," he said. He verbally slammed all provincial politicians, regardless of their political af- filiation. "I am, very frankly, ashamed of our pro- vincial politicians. They do not have any vision of the future for this province. They have lowered themselves to the position of self -preservationists saying whatever they think will get them re-elected with no con- cern for the -long term effectsbn our socie ty," he said. • Clark said the Huron school board has to WE'RE READY WHEN YOU ARE!
