EWPS School News BRUSSELS --Bruce Campbell was worship leader at Brussels Mennon- ite Fellowship on Sunday, Oct. 1. Anne Hemingway and Lucy Hesse were in charge of the congre- gational singing and Darlene Hem- ingway played for the offertory. Christine Knorr, Dave Becker, Sue Siegers, Tracy Goodland and Eric Wideman all contributed to the ser- vice by way of drama. Elwin Garland brought the mes- sage, which introduced the theme for the next two months of serivces, "Facing Down Our Fears". The scripture passage was from Mark 4:35-41. Last week's message was "Tiger Hunting With Jesus". We may think we have our fears under control when we find they are stalking us from behind, said Mr. Garland. Everyone has fears, whether they admit it or not. Some fears are of very real things, while others are of imagined things. Fears cripple us, he said, but we have an antidote for fear, one that is always available: Jesus. Mr. Garland referred to the Bibli- cal story of Jesus stilling the waters during the storm. Even the disciples who had seen Jesus perform mira- cles were amazed that He could calm the waters. Would Jesus say the same to us, in many circum- stances, "Why are your afraid?". God did• not give us the spirit of fear, Mr: Garland continued, but the spirit of power. We need to un- derstand that He is in complete con- trol in our lives, just as He calmed the waters. Fear is a big enemy of faith. Rod Steinman brought the mes- sage last Sunday on the topic of "Facing the Fear of a Society that is Breaking Down". • By Amy Barnes, Rebecca Bruton, ing place value, decimals and how Samantha Gibson, Paul Walker to estimate.
