These past few weeks we have watched farmers plant their fields and we saw those tiny seeds turn into plants. Many times we are asked to do something at the church and we come up with many excuses. God gave each of us a gift to be us. If we never plant the seed it will never grow. Many of us remember our younger children coming home with beans, cup and soil to plant the beans in. The children can hardly wait for the beans to sprout and start to grow. God wants us to reach deep to the spirit inside us and to share what we find. In the Bulb There is a Flower", a hymn that tells the story of "Bloom Where You Are Planted" was sung. The offering was received followed by the offertory response "What Can I Do?" the offertory prayer, the prayers for the people said responsively and the silent prayers in the response. The last hymn "Take Me As 1 Am" was followed by the benediction and the retrieving of the Legion colours, the singing of "God Save the Queen" and the recession of the Legion members. Everyone was invited for coffee and snacks and to meet with the Legion members. PEOPLE AROUND WALTON By Jo -Ann McDonald Call 887-6570 It is hard to keep everyone happy, as some farmers are still planting, some are still spraying and some are praying for rain to help the crops thrive. The heat was great and made things really grow, but a little moisture would be great. There certainly was a change in temperature on the weekend, especially Monday morning. Yikes had to get the heavy sweater on! Good thing we are all so adaptable! The Lions Club held another very successful elimination draw on the weekend. There were fewer Walton winners this year, but we congratulate the McGavin children of Jacob, MacKenzie and Teegan for winning the top prize of $5,000. Other Walton winners included John Gillis, Jeff and Tracey McKee, John and Karen Braecker and Ken and Anne Williamson. Congratulations to all! We are pleased to hear Leona Armstrong is doing well and is awaiting her transfer to Seaforth Hospital for her daily rehab for her hip. She is in good spirits and is determined to get going! Sounds like Leona! We wish Edna Pletch a speedy recovery and hopefully home from hospital soon. We send Doug Mitchell our wishes for a speedy resolve to his hip surgery. It is a two -fold process for him and so it will take extra time. We hope he comes along quickly. We send our get -well wishes and speedy recovery wishes to Joe Dewartz as he is in hospital following a deer/motorcycle collision. He will be awhile recovering from several injuries he sustained. Congratulations to Irma Pryce who celebrated a milestone birthday last week. The family gathered at the Crossroads restaurant in Elmira for a dinner then returned to Gord and Irma's for a social time. Celebrating were sister Shirley and Jim Coleman, brother Carman and Mary Bernard, daughter Kathy and Jim Butson and grandchildren Sara and Wade, Jenn and Taylor and Braden. Congratulations on reaching 70! The Walton Raceway was a busy place on the weekend with the Steel City Motocross club using the facilities. They had nearly 100 campers on site and racing was for the young and old. They had a great time. Celebrating birthdays this past week were Scott Henderson, Neil McGavin, Kyle Pryce, Patricia Andrades, Ernie Lewington, Shelley Coleman, Scott Dalton, Jillian Houston, Amanda McClure, Merle Hackwell, Sarah Tipple, Jacob McGavin and Sharon Stephenson. Happy birthday to all! FROM WALTON .Mani. ✓L...
