Susan Shelstad, in her call to worship, chose Jesus' words "This is my commandment, Love One Another". The choir an- them the Family of God was led by organist Chris Punter. The children's story told by the minister was a lesson in math. The children knew that the minus sign means to take away and is a nega- tive symbol. The plus sign means that we are to add something. When the vertical line of the plus sign is extended, it becomes the cross and reminds us of Jesus. The coffee hour, sponsored by the Sunday School Teachers, provided a time of fellowship.

Many of us openly give but how well do we receive gifts in this real world? Most people find it hard to receive, looking at it suspi- ciously or in the light of charity. But Exodus 4:1-17 shows us how to accept gifts for He controls all. Every believer has a gift given by God and one should use them as di- rected to. Therefore as we need one another and their gift we must re- member to receive and give with a humble heart.

Crediton by Mrs. Stan Preszcator Show concern for Legion veterans By Sid Daley LUCAN - My friends the Vete- rans of Districts A, B, and C of the Royal 'Canadian Legion are con- cerned of what the future holds for our -veterans in the Psychiatric In- stitute of Victoria Hospital. Man of these veterans have lived here since the war years. Not of their own choosing however, but as a re- sult of the war which left them with psychiatric disorders. Now for some reason they vb'ish to move them to other accommodations and we, the veterans of Districts A, B, and C are against such a move. It has been documented such a move would be devastating resulting in the demise of many. In our attempts to avert such a move, members of Districts A, B and C Hospital Committee made up a letter which has been distributed to the many Branches and Auxiliar- ys in the three Districts requesting they also have it duplicated and dis- tributed among their members re- questing they mail same to their M.P. and M.P.P. We are request- ing the assistance of the public, if you are in agreement with our views then please let the politicians know.. The following is the message we sent: "Sir: We seek your support in joining the voices of the mem- bers of the Royal Canadian Legion Hospital Committee for Ontario Districts A, B, and C. We are totally opposed to the transfer for those veterans who are patients in the Psychiatric Institute of Victoria Hospital Corporation in London, Ontario, to the new wing of Parkwood Hospital opened in April 1989, or to any other facility for the treatment of psychiatric dis- orders. It is our contention that funding to refurnish and renovate the Psy- chiatric Institute is the responsibili- ty of Victoria Hospital Corpora- tion, the Ministry of Health for Ontario and Veterans Affairs Cana- da The Present Psychiatric Institute facility can truly be described as the only home many •of these patients have ever known. The mortality rate risk that could bo associated with their proposed transfer is not justified. Yours respectively". They need your support Now won't you help them!!! And that's 30 for this week re- member - Little things console us because little things afflict us.
