Program for elderly held BRUSSELS --Pat Pietrek was worship leader for the Sunday morning service at the Brussels Men- nonite Fellowship. Kristi Procter and Cindy Koch presented a skit to introduce the message, "The Fear of Failure," with the message given by Don Procter. Mr. Procter said that to overcome fear of fail- ure, one needs to pull off an outrageously coura- geous act. Often, he said, we tend to play "mind games". The world honors those who succeed, but there is no recognition for those who fail. Success may increase our confidence, but it also heightens expectations so the feat of failure really isn't over- come. Sometimes stress is intiiisified, he added. Not trying for fear of failure also can become a burden:* ' Al ' People wear masks to hide their true identity. The first step to facing fear is to admit we have a fear and then look at the causes of that fear. Ac- cepting Jesus Christ is the key to overcoming the fear of failure, Mr. Procter said. Jesus accepts us as we are. Mervin Lichty was the song leader and Anne Hemingway was the pianist. Last week the theme continued with "Facing an Unhealthy Fear of God". A progranf was put on for the elderly at Huron - lea last Friday evening. Following the program, members of the congregations met at the church for a time of fellowship and games.
