Special service at Melville
Greeting at the door of Melville

Christmas Sunday service last
weekend were Margaret and
Graham Work.
With Crystal McLellan at the
organ, 24 members of the combined
junior and senior choirs took their
places in the choir loft. Rev.
Campbell announced il would be a
special service of music. The first
anthem with both choirs singing was
Everybody's Talking About the
Baby Boy, with piano and flute
accompaniment.
Entering the fourth week of
Advent, the candle was lit by Brian
and Melinda Tenpas and their family
giving the liturgy with responses
from the congregation. Following
the singing of The First Noel and
What Child is This? the children
moved to the front of the sanctuary
for the reading of The Cat who
Knew the Meaning of Christmas by
Jeanne Kirkby. This was a story of
how a cat was in the stable in
Bethlehem where Christ was born
and purred the baby to sleep and
then heard the wondrous music of
the angels.
Psalm 80: 1 - 7 was read
responsively with Rev. Cathrine
Campbell leading the congregation.
Then the scripture lessons of Micah
5: 2 - 5; Hebrews 10: 5 - 10; and
Matthew 1: 18-24 were read with
Dave McCutcheon assisting Rev.

of Yu-Gi-Oh cards. Thanks for last
year's presents. I will leave out
cookies for you.
