Phone 887-9487 Stonehouses honoured The morning service at Belgrave United Church on April 21, 1991 took the form of a service of recognition for the services render­ ed to the Belgrave and Calvin- Brick United Churches by the Stonehouses. Lewis has been trea­ surer and Helen has been his faithful helper for 28 years. At the age of 86 Lewis has finally decided to hand over the duties of treasurer to newly elected officer Lome Campbell. The Sunday service concentrated on the theme of love in action. The Rev. Peter Tucker talked about the necessity of love, which is a noun, becoming a verb in order to make love live. “Every action which puts self first instead of others”, he said “is a denial of that for which our Lord came to earth.” He added, “Christ was the perfect example of love in action.

Cats, dogs and other animals are all associated with this year’s 4-H program at Sacred Heart School in Wingham. At the first meeting members elected Kevin Hallahan; short letter but full of real and practical advice for us today. James pulls no punches as he says that all our talk about love is invalid unless it results in action. “Therefore”, said Mr. Tucker, “in defiance of grammar, make love a verb.” After singing, “Come Let us Sing of a Wonderful Love”, “Great is Thy Faithfulness” and “Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah”, favourite hymns of Mr. Stone­ house, the congregation proceeded downstairs, where Lewis was pre­ sented with a pen and ink drawing of Knox United Church, Belgrave by the artist Ron Kropf of Welle­ sley. John Campbell, chairman of the Board of Stewards made that presentation. Mrs. Matilda Dawson, treasurer of the Calvin-Brick congregation, made a presentation of flowers for Mrs. Stonehouse.
