Special to the News Record
Rev. Terry Fletcher titled
his message at Londesbor-
ough United Church on
Sunday, June 26, "Unex-
pected Results". His sup-
porting scripture passage
was Luke 8: 26-39. These
verses are an account of
Jesus commanding demons
to leave a man and enter a
herd of pigs.
Terry suggested that
belief in this event may be
difficult and other explana-
tions sought for this man's
illness. However he quoted
J. R. Tolkien who suggested
people need to open their
minds to fantasy; to allow a
willing suspension of
disbelief.
The Jewish leaders of
Christ's time considered
Him a rabble rouser and
gave Him little credit for
His leadership and teach-
ings. However the scripture
passage shows that the
demons controlling this
man recognized His power.
They wished not to be ban-
ished to hell and requested
being sent into the pigs.
Circumstances around
this miracle don't support
other explanations for the
man's behaviour and heal-
ing. Christ sent him out to
tell his friends about the
healing.
Rev. Fletcher suggested
that the demons of today
may well be the evil
thoughts and actions that
result in terrorism and
mass shootings, etc. These
things may be caused by
pride, desire for power,
greed, fear, etc. He
expressed the hope that no
congregants of Londesbor-
ough United would come
face to face with these
demons. His second hope
was that should these
thoughts confront us we
would rely on the protec-
tion of our Saviour.
There will be no Sunday
services in July at Londes-
borough United. However
Terry will be in the area for
the month and is available
in the event of a need.
There will be no 'Coffee
and Conversation' gather-
ings during July as well.
Early notice was given of
the annual Smoked Pork
Chop Supper to be held on
Saturday, September 24.
The Decoration Service
for Ball's Cemetery is Sun-
day, July 3 at 3:00 p.m.
ET CETERA
The Happy Gang Seniors
are meeting for their last
gathering until the fall, on
Wednesday, June 29th. This
12:30 p.m. potluck is to be a
salad plate meal. There will
a speaker offering tips for
seniors. Members are
encouraged to bring along
a friend.
Some weeks when I sit
down to fill this space and
wrack my mind about
something interesting to
write I wonder if anyone is
reading. Wow! The
response I received regard-
ing the swallow structures
tells me you are. And I
thank everyone who took
the time to satisfy my curi-
osity. The fellow who called
Friday evening also told me
swallows are considered
good luck.
Last Thursday villagers
may have seen a group of
children lead by their
teacher and Barb Bosman
out and about the village.
This little excursion out of
the Grade 1 classroom has
become an annual
event. It is the children's
first experience with
maps. Barb, who knows
the village and its history
as well as anyone, tours
them around to points of
interest and businesses.
Along the village streets
they toured Nature's Nest,
Hensall Cooperative, the
Church and Radford's
Farm Equipment/ Post
Office. I believe their last
stop is always at the Bos-
man house.
On April 29, the Londes-
borough Lions Club hon-
oured one of their
own, making John Hoggart
a Melvin Jones Fellow. The
Melvin Jones Fellowship
[Program] is named after
Melvin Jones, the founder
of Lions Clubs Interna-
tional. Fellowship pro-
gram contributions help
the Lions Clubs Interna-
tional Foundation meet
humanitarian needs in
communities around the
world.
The Londesborough
Lions Club worked from
three to five years to accu-
mulate enough funds to
donate to the program in
Wednesday, June 29, 2016 • News Record 21
the name of one of
their faithful members. In
39 years they have awarded
this fellowship only five
times. John Hoggart has
been a Lion member for 30
years having served more
than once as Director, Tail
Twister, Lion Tamer and as
President for 1993/94. His
fellow Lion members felt
he was a most deserving
recipient of this prestigious
award. Congratulations,
John.
That was a most wel-
come cloudburst we
received Sunday around
the supper hour. It's to be
hoped the ground opened
up and received it and not
too much just ran off. The
farmers and the gardeners
will be grateful. Gave
many of us a night off
from watering those
thirsty flowers.
Villagers were sorry to
learn this past week that
Betty Hulley has been hav-
ing some health issues the
last of which found her in
hospital with pneumonia.
She is recuperating at
Ken's but would surely
appreciate your cards, a
call and your prayers.
