Londesborough News Brenda Radford Special to the News Record This weekend, Canadians will gather as families and reli- gious groups to celebrate Thanksgiving, to give thanks for our fortunate life. Church- goers will be singing those wonderful and familiar hymns that remind us of God's bounty. I went on a hymn story search and didn't find quite what I wanted. However we all recognize we are all children in the sight of God, so I offer the background on a familiar children's hymn. In 1860 Anna Warner, under the alias of Amy Lothrop, wrote a novel that few of us would ever have heard of, "Say and Speak': It was a best seller in its time. And one single emotional moment in this book, less than a page in length, was captured in a poem. In order to comfort a dying child in the story, the lead character recited a poem. William Bradbury was so moved by the poem he added music, and "Jesus Loves Me" was published. It was the most popular new song during the years of the American Civil War, and it has become the best known, most translated piece of Christian music in the world. Anna Warner had no way of knowing what her poem would mean to millions of people. Just as we can never know how the little things we do each day impact the lives of others. Let's make that impact be for the better. The folk at Hullett Central thank the community for sup- porting the recent 50th Anni- versary Celebration and Open House. The Grade 8 class, who benefited from the funds donated by those who watched the movie "Finding Dory, are appreciative of the community generosity. The outdoor showing was made possible by Goderich Eleva- tors, the Kerr Family and Mrs. Goetz. They are planning another movie night for December. "Do Heroes Exist?" was the title of the message at Londes- borough United Church on Sunday, October lst. Theresa Kolkman conducted the morning service. She chose Romans 15: 1-7 and Psalm 46 as supporting scripture pas- sages. God is the hero that guides us through our trials but may come in the guise of a friend, neighbour or the per- son sitting next to you. But we must be open to receiving the help. A quote by Christopher Reeves in the order of service also caught my attention. "A hero is an individual who finds the strength to preserver and endure in spite of overwhelm- ing obstacles." And he was proof of that statement in his last years. The Outreach Committee at Londesborough United is hop- ing you will be generous with donations to their October food drive. Rev. Fletcher continues on medical leave. Anyone requir- ing pastoral care may contact Rev. Gary Clark of Blyth.
