Kendal Column Thle $6 billion plus $8 billion plan During the recent election campaign Jean Chretian and the liberals spoke of job creation th rough a joint expenditure of a total of $6 billion over a two year period. The funding would be shared between thc federal, provincial and municipal govermcents, $2 billion each. 1The works would include infrastructures which in many cases are in need of updating and repair. Since the election it bas become apparent that the liberal plan is going to be accepted by most provinces and the municipal governments are expccted now to corne on line. The $2 billion dollars in federal funds when spread across Uic country amounts to $300 million in Ontario. ILis flot a great deal of money these days and thc plan is far less aggressive than that being proposed by the Ontario NDP governrnent which expects to spend $8 billion prior to the next provincial election, 18 monUis away. This is a major plan for the province and as taxes are not to.increase'it is expected it willl contribute some to the deficit. Many, far too many, are without work and without any view of work in the foresecable future. The provincial plan of spending is thus a ray of hope for some as Uic funds are spent across Uic province. Ibis along with Uic fecleral plan, which incidentally Uic Province of Ontario whole-heartedily supports should have some cffect and should be welcomed and supported. Outeomne-based education Are wc being sent on our way to a better formn of, education through a systemn known as Outcomce-based education. Or perhaps we are just being feed another group of words and jargon that have no real significant meaning or which could be interprcted as the same old thing. If nothing cisc the local public systemn has been informed on thc subject of Outcome-based education by a group of three Amnerican educators who are on thc leading cdge of thc subject. It seems as if we are always being bam buzzled by a jumble of words Uiat in many cases cannot be interpreted to mean anything worthwhile or just plainly cannot be interpreted. Outcomce-based education is dcscribed as intended tom give ail students Uic knowlcdgc, comapetence and orientations (attitude, for instance) nceded to meet Uic challenges and opportunities Uiey will face in Uiir careers and fanily lives aftcr graduating. It was said at Uic recent semninar on Uic subject Uiat one of Uic problemns has been that education has focuscd on knowlcdge and that just leamning school content is not cnough. CHapp enings..

The weather is getting colder and we are ail waiting to sec what kind of a winter we will have. This week we will be thinking of Uic past, those of us who are old cnough to remember the Second World War will bc remembering the friends that fought in it. The ones who didn't corne home and those who came home but were neyer quite the sarne again. The boys and girls that had to grow up too quickly. We have al prayed that our children and grandchildren will neyer have to face that situation. It secms that the world has neyer seen peace, no matter when you read the paper, listen to thc radio or watch T.V. you hear of fighting in one part of thc world. What a wonderful thing it would be if for just one weck ail fighting would stop, people might find out that they can get along-together. Sunday was a cold breezy day, a good turnout at church. It was good to sec a few new faces Uiere, and lots of children. Rev. Black was absent from the pulpit so Ian Savage, the Student Associate, took the service. After welcorning everyone, the hymn, "A Mighty Fortress Is Our- God" was sung. Ian led the Prayer of Approacli, the Prayer of Self- Exarnination and the Words of Assurance. The hyrnn, "0 God Our Help In Ages Past"was sung. The children were invited to corne to Uic front. Ian asked themn if thïey knew what Sunday this was? Ian went on to tell Uiern Uiat it was Reformation Sunday. Five hundred years ago, Martin Luther dared to tel Uic truth. He read the Scriptures and preached Uiem, he taught that all people are not perfect, but that God loved themn anyway. Reformation Sunday is very important to the Protestant Churches, it brought truUi into our lives, it brought Jesus into our lives, Jesus who died for our sîns. The children's hymn was, "Mothers of Salem". The Scripture readings were Psahni 46; 2 Corindiians 12: 1-10. Ian titled his sermon, "God Our Refuge." Reformation Sunday, it represents a rcturn to the Scriptures, it brought scientifie discovery, free enterprise. The Roman Catholic Church was very powerful at Uic time of Martin Luther'. When a person dicd Uic churceh would charge Uic farnily moizev to keeP that person fromn going to purgatory. People who could afford it could buy indulgences. Martin Luther dared té preach agaînst this, to preach the, Scrîptures. He paid a great personal price' for this, threats against his family, against his life, but he continued to prcach. After reading Psalrn 46, Martin Luther wrote Uic beautiful hymn, O God Our Help. He also discovered thcre,- a promise and a problern. In life there will be troubles, stabiity does not cxist, We save money, we buy homes, cars but there is no promise that we will not lose Uic money, the house may burn, the car stop on you. We maise children, we hope Uiey will turfi out well, but there is not surety that they wont get in trouble. We soon realize that it doesn't take an carthquake to make us realize that wc are in trouble. We don't plan to have problems. Life isn't perfect. What is the promise? God is our refuge and strength, God is with us. God is our promise. We say that we can't sec Hlm, but He is with us, He is closer than a brother. In timesof desperation God can take our lives and turfi them around. He sets us on a rock, He is our refuge and strength. Wýhen Uings go wrong, we cry out to Him, why is Uis happening to me? He is there with us. On the cloudicst day, if you could fly above the clouds, you would sec a beautiful blue sky, we sec only the clouds. In thc driest desert God has made pools of water. Wc should not judge our lives by what we can sec. We sec only part of Uic picture, God secs Uic whole picture. The problems rnay be with us, but we can know that God is still with us. It is better to trust the Lord than to trust people. In the midst of thc problerns of life, we hýave God with us, God said, "Be still and know that I arn God'". God is our refuge. The hymn, "My Hope Is Built" was sung, the Prayer of Thankfulniess was given followed by the Offering and Uic Prayer of Concemn and Commitment. The closing hyrnn was, "The Church's One Foundation."
