ORONO'WEEKLY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY_9, 1972 From The United Churchi ]Kits and Pieces from tichero Man is a worshipping creatuire. If he does not worship one thing le will worship another, If hie worshiips THINGS he will neyer know the satisfaction of that deep peace and strength and sense of fulfilIment which cornes from ,worshipping God. Central in the act of worship in the churci is the sermon. The sermon may take many forms - indeed, it must if it la to speak to the needs of the gathiered Churchi, which la comprised, of old and yo-ung alike- - the weak and the strong - the troubled and the untroubed - the interest- ecd and the apatietie. Some ex- -.;ct he i eincp tob- ý gratiden carefully iithgtt Aand expert- ly expounded. Many expect it to be something which confirms thern in their own theological op- inions. Others wish it to be tiat which gives them a lift. But each listener, according to his own def- inition, expects it to be "down to earth," practical, informative, inspiaational or spiritual as the case may be. There are many parts -to the service of worship, ail of which, or some of which may answer te some extènt thc need of the people. Deep within the souls of people worshipping in the bouse. of God there is, a hope that xiii not rest. Perhaps, this time, they will act- ually hear God speaking tirough the preacher, the choir, the solo- ist, or thie other parts of the ser- vice. If they can Itear Ris voice just once, it will be worth a wiole year's attendance of Churci, even if ail the other ser- vices are fruitleis. Christians are called to serve. No man las equial to bis Christian responsihiliies in bis own strength. Worship - listening for, God tLo speak - opening up the heart and mind to the promp. fings of God's spirit serves to re- chiarge or refuel those who wor- ship so that they are equal to thteir tasks. It is the calling of every Christ- ian to be the heart and bands and voice of Jesus to others %vhose' 'ives touch their own, even if it is o3nly by their need. Now tiat 1ank's.

Sntelgrove read the scripture fromn St. Luke's Gospel, ehiapter 10, verses 25 to 17. Thc layrhad a question for Jesus: H-ow eoufld lie get eternal hiappi- nless? Jesus asked "Wiat do the scriptures s;ay?" Tic, man repiied, "LJove Godi and love thy nre igi- bour as yourself." Jesus answered Tbis do and thou saîflt ive.",The lawyer said, "Who sis my neigli- bouir?" Jesus tien told the trrd's most perfect short story. Aý man had been robbed and beaten and was lying helpless on the side of the road when tthie priest came along.

On January 27, 1972, employ- ees of Dom's Auto Wreekers east of Oshawa, apprehended 3 secon- dary students from Oshawa who were attempting to steal tires frorn wre'cked v'ehieles in the auto wrecking compound. The UJnited Church Women met at the home. of Mrs. W. Mercer on Tuesday afternoon, February lst with tex members present. Mrs. T. Stevens opened the meeting with a. Prayer of Thanksgiving concluding with the words, IlWe thank Thee most of ail, that Jesus lived a' human lîfe." Thy Kingdom Come of God, No. 276 irz the 'New Hymn Book was sung, followed hy a few words on "Faith" by our president. Mat- thew 14, verses 25 to 31 was rcad by Mrs. J. Carscadden. Mrs. R.' Elliott then spoke on Africa. She told us Africa was 5000miles across at it's widest point and 5000 miles from Cairo in the north to "the Cape in the south. There are probably 800 dialeets spoken. The people are snany races and colours so Africa i's rcally Iiot one country but many. Why study Africa? Because the Churcli is there and it is very rewarding to work with these people. Mrs. Elliott gave as her roll cali: "Name something you would like changed, for the better in this country, if you had the power to change it". One member said she woul like to sece a more stable family life in our land,' for if the family breaks up, the children are left without guidance'. Another said, she wouid like to. see -more lead- ers trained to give guidance to Junior Sunday School teachers. Many good replies were received. Mrs. Elliott listed them on the board then we were told African mothers wished thèse same changes in their country and each item was gone over, thinking of Africa. Theýy wanted united fam- ilies, trained Sunday Sekhool Tea- chers, b etter educational oppor- tunities etc. We are sending nlew clothing to Street HIaven, Toronto.

Kuow Thc Law: Snowmobile Registration: Many snowmobilers are risled with the'understanding that snow mobiles necd not to be registered providing it is not operated on a Higbhway, It la required by law that ail snowrnobiles must bc reg- istered with the Dcpt. of Trans- port before it is driven on or off thc highway. Thc registration plate must be attached to the front, froc of dirt and unobseur- ed by any part of the vebicle or its load. Should you operate your snowmobile on a lake, bush trail, or even your own private prop- erty, it must bc registered ac- cording te law. Drlviug Tip: Icy Intersections Intersections are ikely to be, more dangereus than other road sections, because the heavy traf- fie tends to polish ice and pack snow bo a bard glazed surface. Tierefore, intersections shoiuld be approached more slowly ini winteýr. COMPUTER FAULT THROWS BUBUEN ON WELFARE (CoQntinued from page 1) ment Insurance naturally app]y for welfare.
