LUCO2 NSP -H LDY-CLI N The news from Londesborough Brenda Radford Here are the answers to last week's Christmas quiz. 1] When a bell rings, an angel gets his/her wings. 2] The Grinch stole Christ- mas in Whoville. 3] The second day of Christmas gifts were two tur- tle doves and a partridge in a pear tree. 4] Wenceslas was King of Bohemia. 5] The poinsettia is native to Mexico and known as 'the flower of the night': 6] The Nutcracker's main enemy is the King of the Mice. 7] Charles Dickens is the author of "A Christmas Carol': 8] "Jingle Bells" was origi- nally written for Thanksgiv- ing, probably the American date in November. With three weeks to Christmas I offer this first third of a Christmas alphabet. A] animals in the stable, angels in the sky. B] a Baby, Bethlehem, Bible and boxes of gifts. C] carols, cards and candles. D] December, decora- tions and Christmas dinner. E] exaltation, excitement and Christmas Eve. F] family, frankincense and Father Christmas. G] Good News, greetings, The Gospel. H] holly, holidays, heav- enly hosts. Jim Johnston is home and his heart is ticking along as never before. Martin Wilts continues in Clinton hospi- tal. And several in the village are dealing with that nasty bronchial virus that is mak- ing the rounds. This great weather that continues is no time to be ill so wash your hands, a lot, stay warm, drink lots of water, take your vitamins and pray the bug misses you. For 'tis the sea- son for lots of Christmas things and the nasties. There are just two full weeks of classes left for Hul- lett pupils in this winter term as they start holidays on December 18. Progress reports go home on Decem- ber 10 and next week I'll have a report on their Christmas Concert that hap- pened on Wednesday, December 9. Classrooms are decorat- ing their doors for a school - wide competition. During the last week of classes the children can buy a sweet treat, a candy cane for 25 cents. It might be fun to drop by the halls on Wednesday, the 16, for that has been designated 'ugly Christmas sweater day,' a fun fad that has surfaced in recent years. Londesborough United Church Rev. Fletcher and the sen- ior choir had a chance to sit in the pews at Londesbor- ough United Church on Sunday, December 6 when the Sunday School took charge of the morning ser- vice. The young folk capably handled all aspects of the worship and presented their annual White Gift pageant. Their playlet was titled "Waiting for a Star". The chil- dren introduced their pag- eant with an action song, "Hush, There's a Baby Nar- rators Kiara and Emma told how the world was waiting and watching for the coming of a king. A rather updated version of the Christmas story was presented with all the original cast, Mary, Joseph, angels, an inn- keeper, shepherds and sta- ble creatures. There were many smiles in the pews. The scribes searching the scriptures were studying newspapers. By the end of the pageant those newspa- pers carried headlines such as "The Wait Is Over", "The Son of God Arrives As A Baby". As the story pro- gressed the congregants saw a Mary who was reading bridal magazines in prepa- ration for her marriage to Joseph and receiving blue baby gifts from the angel, Gabriel. Twice "Mission Impossible" spies made an appearance supposedly to search for the promised Baby. Joseph accepted his role in the event with a two thumbs up and accepting 'baby care books' from Gabriel. Even Caesar Augustus made an appearance with his abacus making his new census law. The shepherds rushed out of the stable and up the church aisles telling all of us the good news. The closing song, "What a Glorious Night", retold the events of that night and the message that Love has come. The Sunday School col- lected 'white gifts' for the Huron County Christmas Bureau and appreciated the generosity of church goers. A time of fellowship with a light lunch was enjoyed fol- lowing the service. Flowers at the front of the sanctuary were placed in memory of Charles Snell who passed away suddenly the previous Sunday. Please keep Sharon and the family in your prayers as they come to terms with his passing. THINK CYSTIC FIBROSIS CAN'T TOUCH YOU? 1 in 25 carries the cystic fibrosis gene.
