The Goderich Signal-Star, 1987-10-21, Page 9Festival of Faith weekend planned Christmas, Good Friday, Easter and Pentecost - all rolled into one, is an ac- curate descriptionof the upcoming Festival of Faith, planned by North Street United Church on October 23, 24 and 25. "We are trying to get the congregation to look at what the whole Christian Faith is all about," said Reverend Robert Ball, of North Street United. While the above mentioned occasions celebrate important benchmarks on which Christianity is based, Ball said many peo- ple don't realize the combined impact because they are spread throughout the year. "The whole experience is designed for people to learn, in one weekend, the essence of the Christion faith," said Ball of the event which is open to all members of the North Street congregation. October may seem early for Christmas carols, but the seasonal songs will be the order of the evening Friday night, as the Festival of Faith begins with a candlelight carol service, beginning at. 7:30 p.m. A family worship service will feature the North Street Junior and Senior Choirs, as RELIGION well as children's activities, followed by a Christmas reception and family dance party. A special guest preacher/teacher/story- teller, Dr. Clifford Elliot, will also be featured at all weekend events. Born in Langham Sask., Elliott has served pastorates and taught at religious colleges in both Ontario and Western Canada. His travels have included the Far East, Latin America, Africa and China. He has vistied Moscow, East Germany and Nicaragua on peace missions .and to study ecumenical relations and the church's involvement in social and political concerns. Presently, he writes a column for the Toronto Star and the United Church Observer and has been active in radio and television. "Good Friday" will be celebrated Satur- day night, with a teaching and reflecting hour, special Good Friday music, dramatic readings and visual art medita- tion. Junior Congregation time with Reverend Kathi Urbasik will also be held. Sunday morning, "a full bore Easter Service," will be held, said Reverend Ball, featuring a "beefed up" choir about twice the normal size with a sermon by Dr. Elliott. Guest soloist will be John De Jager. At 5 p.m., a congregational supper will be held, prior to the "Pentecost" celebra- tion in the evening. The Pentecost event will begin at 7 p.m. with a lesson on the "Holy Spirit" by Elliott, followed by a presentation by guest Liturgical Dancer Louise Moorehouse. Music will be provided by the North Street Senior Choir and the Wesley -Willis Senior Choir of Clinton, with Mary Hearn, harpist. The program will conclude with the dedication of the week -end theme banner presented to the church by.,, the North Street United Church Women. Ball expects the program . to be a positive, learning experience for the entire congregation. "We're all kind of excited about this. We feel it's going to be a good experience for everyone," he said.
