Hullett students graduate Crime stoppers Overnight of June 1, 1991 a thief stole a 17" Coleman canoe from beside a cottage al Amberley Beach in Ashfield Twp. The canoe was of ABS construction, light blue in colour, with COLEMAN 17 Ram on each gunnel. The services of Aubum Mission­ ary Church June 30 were augment­ ed by the singing and instrument playing of the Chapelites. The song "The Spirit is Peace" was very favourably rendered. Pastor Carne's message ""The Church of His Choice" was taken from 1 Sam. 4: 10-22. The church of Christ's choice is made up of called people. It is composed of converted people. It is made up of obedient people. When the church is not obedient to God they are a god unto themselves. The church of His choice will be a converting church - called to bring souls to Christ. The church is losing young people because it is not calling them to Christian service. All young people are invited to a ball game Friday evening at Col- borne Central School. David and Debra Rodges and family are at jungle camp with New Tribes Mis­ sion at Durham. In August they will be leaving to attend language school in Missouri. May God bless this family as they prepare to do His work.

Church burns mortgage The burning of the mortgage on the annex of Auburn Missionary Church was a highlight of the anniversary services on Sunday, June 23. David Baan, treasurer; Gary Palmer, Youth Leader and Eliza­ beth Bowman, Christian Education Director took part in the burning of the mortgage ceremony. Everyone was blessed by the singing and instrument playing of the Switzer Family of Merlin. The songs, "Twenty-four hours a day," and "It's me again, Lord", were most inspiring and beautifully ren­ dered. Rev. J. Allan Shantz of Kitchener was the guest speaker for this special anniversary. His mes­ sage was on building taken from 1 Corinthians 3: 5-9. For every building it is important to have a strong foundation. We must build for the glory of God with rubbish of pride, deceit, con­ fusion, etc. cleared away first. The foundation is Jesus Christ. Are we going to be like a mushroom that just springs up overnight or like a stalwart oak that takes time but withstands the storms. The church is the bride of Christ beautiful; we must not be a dis­ grace to God. Often we fail to have good plans and then we ask God to come in and straighten the mess. We don't build for now but for the future. We exist for God's glory. The church was beautifully deco­ rated with flowers by Mary Stoll and Marie Scott. Rev. and Mrs. J. Allan Shant2 were weekend guests with Robert and Elizabeth Bowman, and Leslie and Dorothy Bolton.
