The news from
Spruced up
With more than 1,500 hours invested by Sam Dougherty
and other volunteers over the last two years, Londesboro
United Church has all new windows to protect the
congregation from cold winter winds. The women of the
church organized a work bee last summer to start the
project. Each window was taken apart, cleaned and
repaired. Broken panes were replaced with original glass
found in crates in the church from previous renovations.
Volunteers, like Gordon Shobbrook, met July 2 to add
some finishing touches of paint around the frames.

At Ball's Cemetery Church on
Sunday, July 5 at 3 p.m. the annual
memorial service was held. Rev.
James H. Came was the minister
and Nancy Park organist.
Rev. Came welcomed all and the
hymn Guide Me 0 Though Great
Jehovah was sung.
Rev. Came followed with prayer
which closed with The Lord's
Prayer. A moment of silence
followed.
Offering was received by Charles
Adams and Daryl Ball.
Scripture was read by Rev. Came
from 2nd Corinthians, chapter 13.
In this it talks about self-
examination, proving oneself and
knowing that with faith and prayer
people can do no evil, then may
live in peace for the God of love
and peace is with them.
