News from
Revival Centre
Rev. Roger Mason conducted the
Sunday morning service. David and
Judith (toss brought their -new son
William Moore Ross for dedication to
the Lord. Reading Deuteronomy 6:6-7
Rev. Mason stated that to raise a
child to follow the Lord follows
presenting the baby to the Lord as in
l Samuel 1:28, and Luke 2:22. To
dedicate a child to the Lord is mean-
ingless unless the parents also
dedicate themselves to -God. Mr.
James Henry played his guitar as lit-
tle Miss Vicki Sumner sang Jesus
Loves ole.
Rev. Mason ministered from Pro-
verbs 1:10-16. He stated God wants
Godly men that act in a godly way due
to their convictions, sensitive to the
voice of God. Because- men come -
from boys, the parents have to raise -
their boys to become godly men, with
God's help: Parents need to teach
their children to stand on their own
convictions, or they will buckle under
peer pressure. Proverbs 13: 20 tells us
we will be influenced by the company
we keep. Parents should want their
children to be exposed to positive
Christians. Parents have to live holy
lives also. -
Parents should not expect the
church and Sunday School to do all
the Christian instruction for their
children. Parents need to teach their
children the temporary pleasures of
sin are not worth the consequences.
Parents have to model the way a
Christian life should be, while expos-
ing the children to godly leaders.
Remember that heathenistic cartoons
on T.V. corrupt children.
Proverbs 3:11-12 tells us our
children need to be sensitive to God.
.Children learn this from their
parents, as well as the church
leaders.
Sunday evening Mrs. Marilyn
Brooks, of Toronto. played the piano
as she led in the singing. Mrs. Brooks
taught knew chorus Let All the Peo-
ple Praise the' Lord.
Rev. Roger Mason spoke from
Mark 6:1-16. The hardest group of
people Jesus ever ministered to were
those familiar with Him in His home
town Nazareth. The people thought
they knew Jesus, but they were just
familiar with Him. Knowing facts
about Jesus does not mean knowing
Him in an intimate personal way.
The first thing the people of
Nazareth did when Jesus came was
to doubt his authority. They were
astonished at Jesus' wisdom. They
did not deny Jesus' wisdom or His
- miracle working power. The knew
Jesus did not have any rabbinacal
teaching, yet He had wisdom and
authority. Because they were
familiar with Jesus and His family,
the towns people could not accept His
authority. People today suffer from
the same problem.
Upcoming events - June 28 -- Rev.
Doug Barton, missionary to Africa,
will be the guest speaker in the mor:
ning service. Mr. Pieter
Schinkleshock will be speaking in the
evening service.
July' -7 - Singer Dwight Elijah will be
speaking. -
"Shout for joy to the Lord ---1,44.0,1 --
a11 the people who -have returned- to
gather before him and praise Ills
name. The faithful. those who built.
well, who remained steadfast were
still here today. It's only the Lord that
keeps us growing. If the United •
Church can do nothing else it can
leave a legacy of "love" behind.
The people omen together to
welcome new members into the
church family and to reaffirm their
own convcnanl with God. Following
the service anniversary tea was serv-
ed in the fellowship hall and a display
of Historical Interest was on view -
this was the work of Mrs. Flora
Roberton and Mrs. Jean Hodgins."
