Londesboro United Church. The sanctuary has been beautifully decorated for the Christmas season by the Sunday School teachers and others from the congregation. Representing the women of Londesboro church, Yvonne Hoggart and Laurel Mitchell lit the first candle in the Advent wreath. The candle was lit as a symbol of hope for all God's children.

Their dispersal of the funds provides Hullett Central Public School students are discussing confidence this week as part of their virtue program. Confidence is explained as having faith/trust in something for someone. Staff and pupils have a great deal of confidence in their peacemakers _and peer mediators. This program is designed to help with minor problems and conflicts between pupils. There are two identifiable peacemakers on the primary hard during all recesses and part of the noon hour. Peacemakers are trained to find a teacher or report the problems identified to the office. Peer mediators are asked to solve minor disagreements between primary and/or junior pupils. The program encourages problem- solving among the pupils and helps them gain the skills and independence necessary for conflict resolution. the means for self-hetp and hope in each particular mission's culture and situation. Dave Williams and the boys and girls gathered at the front and discussed hope. A difficult concept, Dave suggested that hope is something the angels bring, something one trusts will really happen. He showed the children some pictures he felt represented signs of hope. For next Sunday's discussion, the Kelly Stevenson reports that on Nov. 21 the peer mediators and peacemakers were treated to a pizza and pop lunch. This was a way to say thanks for their hard work. She states that the work of these students is greatly appreciated. The school council has been busy working on a new fundraiser which is a collection of coupons provided by local businesses. These booklets will be available soon at a cost of $15 each. .

In Isaiah 64: 1-9, God is asked to free them again. He promises hope and a bright future to them. In Mark 13: 24-37 Jesus talks to the disciples about how the temple of Jerusalem will disappear but that He will always be there for them. He warns them not to losy. hope and to be ready for His second coming. Mr. Williams, in his message, Missing the Signs of Hope, suggested that everything. done in this world is done in hope. In recent history the tearing down of the Berlin Wall, and the end of apartheid are signs of hope for the world. The involvement of children and adults in church activities are seen as signs of hope for the church. Givings to the M&S Fund and projects such as the Foodgrains Bank and white gifts give a flicker of hope to many. Even simple acts of love and encouragement offer hope. The Londesboro congregation will hold their white gift service on Sunday, Dec. 8. Following the morning service, there will be a congregational potluck dinner. The UCW has bean soup mixes for salt at $6 each. Just in time for Christmas givings, the mixes will warm up cold winter days. Happy. Gang meets Hullett students discuss confidence
