4- Orono Weekly limes, Wednesday, August7, 1991 by Phyllis Lowery ,Well July has once again corne and gonte, here we are into August. June and July were certainly hot months, new we are getting cool breezy weather. Is it my imagination or is our weather changing more each year? We seemn te be getting the heat earlier each year, this feels more like September tdmnAugust. As one travels around the country one sees the crops being harvested much earlier, east cf here combining was taking place early in JuIy and ail over the second cutting of hay is being done. Perhaps June and July should be the holiday months, the people atthe cottages must be feeling pretty cool these nights. Sunday was a breezy day, coming from Church the sun was shining but it was raining as I came up the ski hill. This was our first Church Service since the end cf June. Elaine Kellogg was our guest speaker, she was introduced by Keith Wood. Elaine is studying at the Centre for Christian Studies, she lias completed one year. She will be with us next Sunday and Sunday, August 25th. Fellowing the opening hymn Psalm 43 was read. Elaine read from the Scriptures, the choir sang the anthem, "How Long Ras it Been, Since You Taiked With the Lord." Elaine then read from "Luke, Chapter 4, Verses 16-30" the hymn, "Oh Brother Man" was sung. Ini the Sermon, Elaine spoke of Jesus' visit te the Temple, where lie spoke of healing and he premnised them geod news, but the people were offended and threatened te throw him eover the cliff. We do neot always want te hear good news. She then went on te tell us cf being ithe Philippines this year. She told of a group cf people whe had te leave their home area, they were lay Catholics and strong Christians. They were harrassed because liey wanted te ewn land, the land is owned by the rich, their gardens were destrcyed se they had ne food, mnembers of their famnilies were killed, se they had te move 'te anether area, tliey teck shelter in a Church hall. The Cliurch set tliem up. They were given water buffalo 50 they could work the land. A petty Government man questiened them for the ownership papers for these animais and because they did not have them with them, the animals were confiscated. The people fear the police and the officiais. Elaine also spent timne near the American air base, which provides much cf the employment. When she came home and spoke te people about the conditions there, people asked what dees their situation have te do with us? t is a matter cf global justice. We need sugar 50 these people have te work on the large plantations forvery iew wages, te suppiy our needs. God wants justice for ail people. Following the prayer the closing hymn, "Where Cross the Crowded Way of Life" was sung. Announcements . .. Plan ahead for Sunday afternoon August 25th.
