He knew a good thing when he saw it, although most of his life had been the hard work of fishing. He had faced the storms on the lake, had varying success and often failure. But one thing was noticeable about Andy. That was the close and genuine friendship he had with his brother Pete, a rough diamond if there ever was one. As things worked out, Andy seemed to play "second fiddle" to Pete. He was called "Pete's brother", and that proved who was the more important one. Yet for all this, Andy had a good head on his shoulders. He also a great love for people, even if his trade dealt with fish, ras a good judge of character. There was always time to think, and Andy didn't waste it. One time there was a big stir nearby and crowds gathered to hear what some called a "crackpot prophet". Andy needed change, so he set out to hear this spell-binder. Although the crowds were big, so was the fellow who was talking and what fie said hit home. He made Andy think deeply. He turned Andy' mind to his own practically nor xistant religion. Andy drank up a great deal of what was said. United Missionary Church Minister: Rev. A. Shantz, B.Th.

Dr. of Chiropractic wishes to announce the opening of the Brighton Chiropractic and Physiotherapy Centre Hours: 9.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m. Evening by Appointment Telephone: Office 1213 Residence 1010-r-3 That night he said nothing to big Pete, his brother, because he still hadn't made up his mind. This fellow was certainly coming in on the right wavelength about life in general. "Still", Andy pondered, "You just can't pick it all up in one hearing. 1*11 go along again. Strange thing, this business, "Repent and be baptized," and that other part about the Messiah. Strange". The next day Andy got a chance to get closer to the traveller who preached strongly, and he even talked frankly with him. Then almost without warning, the preacher interrupted himself to point to a straight young town fellow passing by. The look in his eye suggested that he knew the and that someone unusual here. This passerby was important. But what Andy were the words. "Behold the Lamb of God". Andy still doesn't know how it happened, or what happened, but he soon found himself walking along with this stranger. From what he wore, the stranger could have been a shopkeeper, but his hands bore better proof of his trade. He was a carpenter. However, the way time passed as he talked, showed him to be a teacher, if not a rabbi. If John, the baptizing preacher had caught Andy's attention, he nothing by comparison with this new fellow, Joshua. Somehow or other, all the questions Andy had were being answered. This Joshua was no fly-by-night preacher. He was no stranger, either, and Andy told him a great deal. He said there was a need to get right with God, but there was also a need to get right with your family and friends (and enemies?). Andy thought he'd heard correctly. Enemies? At any rate, what was said was really good news. There is hope for everyone. As he walked back home to the lakeshore and the boat, Andy weighed everything he could remember that Joshua had said. And suddenly he knew what it all meant. This was the Man -- the Messiah! Andy tore down the sand and breathlessly told Pete of his experiences. "Honest, Pete, this guy is no wind-bag like our local rabbi. This fellow .... Joshua .... he's the Messiah! There's no doubt about it! Come on, you've got to meet him!" So Andy and Pete went to hear the man from Nazareth. Thus began the Biggest adventure of their lives. They became "fishers of men". But how it ail happened, and their differences with the "rabbi" Joshua are to be found elsewhere. Note -- Joshua is the Hebrew name for Jesus. Read John 1:35-42 at least. To-day is St. Andrew's Day. Dedication of Sanctuary Furnishings at Trinity Church At Trinity Anglican Church, Sunday, November 26th, the Sunday next before Advent, several furnishings, presented by the Woman's Auxiliary, Evening Guild and Altar Guild, for use the Sanctuary, were dedicated an imposing ceremony by the Rector, Rev. J. A. Roney. The gifts included Riddel curtains, Reredos curtain, Chalice Veil and burse, Superfrontal for the Holy Table, Corporals and Purificators. Flowers were from the Altar Guild. Riddels date from an age when churches were more draughty, candles were required for lighting and these curtains were hung at each end of the altar to prevent draughts from blowing out the candles. All these articles will be used during the Christmas season, some of them for the first time this coming Sunday, First Sunday in Advent. We are asked to use daily at noon the following prayer: Thy Kingdom come -- in my life and in our home; in our parish and in the whole church; in Canada and in all the world.
