(KENDAL COLU M-N by Phyllis Lowery This past week has been both a busy and frustrating week, N,,Iai wth suiffering through a bad cold anld preparing for our Manse Commnitte e Salad Supper, mny mmd seemis to have gone on hold. Sunday, we had Rev. Black back fromi holidays and study leave. The Service' opened with Rev. Black welcoming everyone to Worship. The announcements were drawn to Our attentioni. -The 'Miles to Manitoba' collection was made -- we have reached Kakabeka Falis, west of Thunder Bay. We are now on the last Ieg of our journey. We should reach Manitoba next week. The Gathiering hymns were, "Worship Him", "What a Friend We Have In Jesus"t and "Family 0f God". Our special music was pro- vided by Carol Gardner, Doug Lewis and Grant McGonaghy, they sang "It Is No Secret". The children were called to the front, David asked themn how many of them have a' mom who wanted them to wash their hands and face before going to bed and then made them do thie same thing when they woke up? Hie said thiat is what his mother did and hie used to wonider how dirty she thought he could get, while sleeping. David then saîd that washing your face first thing in the morning when you wake up, makes.you feel fresh -- ready to start a new day. This is like baptism. The baby is, not being washed but is being welcomed into the family of the Church. The children's hyvmn was "The Wise May Bring Theliir Learninig". The Children then Went out to watch a video., The prayer of Self- Examiniat ion and the WXords of Assuiranice were given. Thle Scripture was from Mark 10: 13-16. The Sermon was titled "Tîred, But Not Too Tired". The Disciples knew that Jesus was tired. They had been on the road for days. They were going to Jerusaîem. They had neyer been lefi alonc. If they tried to rest someone wanted to talk to Jesus. Everyone contnued page 1(» Dear Editor: 1 suppose many of your regular readers may find it odd ifiat 1 would agree with virtually anything Gord Milîs may have to say about poli- tics. 1 find it ratlier strange, myseIf. However, it is liard to argue with any of the points he made in last week'sTMmes, from A. to K., regarding the province of On tario's love-in with the liberals in the recent election, despite an absolute- ly dismal record and a string of broken promises during their last terrn. What was it they managed to grab, 99 of 103 seats? Wliatever. Thankfully, some sanity pre- vailed elsewhere in the count- tiy. Needless to say. without Ontario the Liberals would be toast. I don't read the Globe or the Star, but 'm afraid the Toronto Sun doesn't have as many readers as tliey would like to think, (or, at least Editorial readers) as tliey threw everything tliey could at Chretien and lis party,, maybe more so than Liberal opponents, for an entire montli leading up to lecion day. As far as Ontario's results are concerned, major- ity or landslide are inade- quate terms. Call it' a monopoly.' Gord isn't entirely correct in -saying that "nary a one of those elected in Ontario (in '93) stood up for us"..John Nunziata did. 0f course, lie got kicked off the team for doing so. Democracy at it's finest, eh? I. give hlm a lot of cre dit, and even.more to is constituents,,who re-elected hirm this lime around. As an independent! Maybe more M.P.'s should go that route? And, no Gord, Ontario's drinklng water wasn't "spiked with a 'vote Liberal Serum' ". It's as obvious as the nose on your face that Chretien's plan is very similar to Mr. Mike's scheme to get Ontario back on its feet again. Read the polis Gord. Everybody thinks Mr. Mike is doing a bang-up job! Ask any doctor, nurse, hospitail worker, any provin- cial civil servant. Ask any MNR or MTO worker, any teacher or board of education employee. Ask any single mother on welfare. - ,--ask your old boss, Bob Rae..he's beenquoted as saying lie thinks Mr. Mike "is on the riglit track". (He wouldn't be looking for some sort of "plumb" appointment from Mr. Mike, would lie?) Harris will not only have this province out of debt by the end of the millennîum, lie's going to tumn a lidy profit. And, Cliretien, no doubt, will do the saine thing with the entire country. We're ini for some good limes, Gord. There is going tu be so mucli money around, we won't know what in hl to do witli it al!f Talk about "a chicken in every pot"... .we Canadians will al be eating pheasant, under glass! Happy day.s are liere again!! NOW, if only we could get nidofthat ---..GST! Regards Bob Rotz Kirby, Ont.
