Hort. Society meets
O Canada opened the
Horticultural Society meeting at the
hall on Sept. 8 at 8 p.m.
President Dorothy Schneider
welcomed everyone and asked if
anyone had unusual or different
plants in their garden. One
mountain ash bloomed twice this
year.
The society is invited to Clinton
Garden Club on Sept. 24. Anyone
needing a ride contact Ann Vincent
526-7263 or Dorothy Schneider
526-7396 by Sept. 20.
The president thanked everyone
for working in the flower beds this
year and reminded them to keep a
lookout for "The Naked Ladies" at
Riverside Park - these are the fall
crocuses.
The program convenors Heather
Durnin and Joni Reinhart
introduced the guest speaker Vai
Mallough, who spoke on growing a
herb garden. She told of the
benefits of them in daily diet.
Heather and Joni then took us on
a visual trip around the village.
They showed some extraordinary
gardens and backyards not usually
seen. There are certainly some
super gardens here.
The final slide was a bench and
they reminded members to take
time to sit and enjoy the beauty
around you.
There are too many plants and
bulbs at Manchester Gardens, so it
was decided to have a sale of them
on the following evening.
Ann Vincent showed how to trim
iris and peonies etc. before
transplanting.
The date for the "Pumpkin Fest"
is Oct. 27. New ideas and
volunteers are needed.
The meeting closed. Brenda Farr,
Ann Vincent, and Dorothy
Schneider treated all to a delicious
lunch.
On Sept. 14 the congregation
gathered at Knox United Church
and were welcomed by an organ
prelude by Bernice Gross. Rev.
Paul Ross welcomed all on the
beautiful morning.
The opening chorus Come
Christians, Join to Sing was sung.
The hymn Tell Me The Story of
Jesus was then sung followed by
the prayer of confession and
assurance of God's pardon.
The children were called to the
front. Rev. Ross produced a hoop
and even had a couple of children
make use of it. Then he spoke
about trying to do things. Some
will always be better, but that will
not matter, he said. "Simply try to
do your best."
As the children went to their
respective classes their chorus
Jesus Loves the Little Children was
sung.
Rev. Ross offered prayer
followed by the singing of the
hymn All Hail the Power of Jesus'
name. Scripture reading of Psalm
19 followed on all nature and
heavens being the creation of God.
People are his children and should
follow his commandments.
The second reading was from the
New Testament. Here, Christ asked
his disciples who people said that
He was. There were several replies,
but Peter said "Thou Art the
Messiah." Christ asked them to
keep it a secret.
The hymn O Christ in Me Thy
Soul Hath Found.
Rev. Ross's sermon was of the
miracles of God as written in the
Bible. As His followers people
come to church to sing, worship
and pray in His name. This helps
them to continue daily, following
His laws and living and enjoying
this world which He created. The
miracles of it are all around, Rev.
Ross said.
He closed with prayer, everyone
has talents and no one is perfect.
"However when you do wrong
remember that God forgives and
we should too."
The Lord's Prayer was said in
Unison.
The offering was received from
the church and Sunday School. The
doxology was sung and offertory
prayer given.
The closing hymn was Jesus is
the Man.
The Benediction followed.
Amens and organ postlude closed
the worship.

Free-falling over the Burmese
jungle with a useless parachute
flailing overhead seemed like a
good time to get right with God,
and that's what Alf Rees did.
As a flamboyant, excitement
seeking teenager, anxious to escape
the convicting influence of praying
parents, he enlisted in the air force
during World War II and was
posted to bomber command in
Burma. On this fateful day,
however, his sabotage-disabled
plane plummeting to earth behind
him, the young airman promised
God that, if he was spared, he
would spent the rest of his life
preaching the gospel. At the last
moment his fouled chute opened,
providing for him a safe landing.
Rees has fulfilled his promise to
preach, distinguishing himself as a
pastor, a missionary to India, an
associate evangelist with the Barry
Moore Evangelistic Association,
the president of the Evangelical
Missionary Church of Canada, and
currently as a general evangelist,
ministering internationally.
Rees is not a stranger in this area,
having held a crusade in the Blyth
Memorial hall almost 20 years ago.
He will be ministering at Huron
Chapel Evangelical Missionary
Church in Auburn from this
Sunday, Sept. 21 until Sunday,
Sept. 28. Weeknight services,
Monday through Friday, will be at
7:30 p.m., Sunday services are at
8:30 and 11 a.m. and at 7:30 p.m.
All are invited to attend.
