Every year the Christian churches pass on to the world the Christmas message of happiness and peace. Her€ too in our own community of ‘Cassiar and through the gracious services of the Courier, we wish to everyone what God revealed when his Son was born of the Virgin Mary: A Saviour born for you; Glory to God in the high- est, and peace to his people on earth. Glory is’ given to those who give of them- selves; to anyone’ who saves even one life,.as to one who arouses the consciousness of thousands to help the suffering or the afflicted. This is the glory the Canadian people this year accorded to Terry Fox for his undaunted message of hope. That is the kind of hope that God continues to give to the world through his Son, Jesus. The fact of having a God made human; born in our corruptible flesh, shows-an affection of love beyond out comprehension. This God is Love itself, Love for broken humanity. Like a cancer victim'who is totally dependent on medi- cal research and competence in order.to survive, so the- human race is-totally dependent on God’s Love and Wisdom for its cure. Our cure is Peace. First, peace within us, in- ner peace which allows us to grow in Love, in re- sponsibility, in mutual trust and in the service of others. Then, peace within relationships, social peace that means healthy interactions between people, between the different segments and levels of society. And then finally, peace among na- tions, world peace, is desperately needed. We know from experience how very fragile _ ‘ these kinds of Peace are when they are left at the mercy of human efforts alone. Inner peace can be- shattered by a broken home; children are stunted in their human development by all kinds of hu- man errors. Our social peace is disturbed by mis- -— Christmas Message Rather Oscar Pauwels OMI The Rev'd Bill Morrison understandings, selfishness, pride, and the hunger — for power or money at the expense of relation- ships. World peace is threatened on a global scale ' when rights of freedom and the value of persons are denied in favour of economic growth, state supremacy, and the arms race. The terrible irony of human sinfulness we see every day, as rich na- tions sell arms to the underdeveloped onés in the name of keeping the peace. Billions are spent on - _arms, while social assistance at home and inter- : national aid abroad are cut back, and this is call- ed justice and righteousness. A world that spends $1-million a minute on arms is not Prepaning it- self for peace! Yes, we need and we depend on God’s Wis- dom. Our wish for peace will come true to the extent that we welcome his Son, the Lord Jesus, into our hearts, our community, our country and -our world. That is our wish for you at this Christ- mas time and for the whole year. JOISTS IOI IOI ICICI ICO ITO IOS A TOS SIS SII ISO On All Saints Day, November Ist, four babies were baptized: Kimberly Susan, daughter of Stuart and Susan Borden; Justin Allen, son of Chris and Louise Creyke; Michael Tanner, son of Don and Cheryl Larson; and Amanda Elizabeth, daughter ~ of Eugene and Margaret Puritch. At a congregational meeting held after the regular service on November 8th, it was decided to ' commission Bullas Glass of Kitchener, Ontario, to create the stained glass window planned as a 25th anniversary project. The window will have three panels, each with a simple background of colored glass. The two outside panels will bear emblems symbolizing the. Eucharist, the sheaf of wheat and the chalice-and-grapes; the central panel will bear the Lamb of God emblem, an appropriate symbol for a church dedicated to All Saints, evoking as it Anglican Church. News. does the text from the mey of All Saints Day: ‘After this I looked and saw a vast throng, which no one could count, from every nation, of all-tribes peoples, and languages, standing in front of the throne and before the Lamb....And they fell on their faces before the throne and worshipped God, crying:. “Amen! Praise and glory and wisdom; thanksgiving and honour, power and might, be to our God for ever and ever! Amen.” (Revelation 7. 9.12) We hope to have the window installed for Easter. The parish hall is a busy place on Sunday. mornings during the time of worship. First, there’s the nursery, where several babies are cared for. Mothers, assisted by a couple of young girls, take turn-about supervising the nursery, under the co- ordination of Pat Riddle.

Right now they are working on a play, whigh they will perform in church on the Sunday before Christmas This Christmas Eve, there will be two services. in the church.

Shite Gein, SR Oty er a | DIN ING BY CANDLE LIGHT Some of the tastiest food we sampled on our recent trip home was also some of the plainest and simplest preparations, which is one of the reasons a great deal is not written about the fare of the British Isles. For what can be said of the crumbly white cheshire cheese which goes to make up the Ploughman’s Lunch at the Lantern Pyke Inn, that Pennine sanctuary out- . side Glossop, where everything stops for cricket and sheep-dog trials - or the smoked mackerel, washed down with a pint of Robinson’s Best, sampled in the Cheshire village of Bollington, prior to visiting my old boarding school in nearby Potts Shrigley, where all those years ago I learned just how plain food could be. The kitchen’s one saving grace, the old English Tipsy Cake, was served on all major feast days. And how does one describe the Isle of Man kippers, shipped daily to the Imperial Hotel, Llandudno, so that they can reign supreme on the buffet breakfast, despite stiff competition from freshssliced Irish bacon that has not suffered the indignity of being segregated into back and streaky, spicy cumberland sausage and boudin noir so good it could have come off Bury Fair! Yes, and then again, what of the Jellied Eels purchased from the local fishmonger and eaten out of last week’s . News of the World as we strolled past the sailors and Le Lion Rouge and on to the Headlands. of Newquay. And the almost sweet meat of the whole grilled plaice; of the Savoy Restaurant Cleveleys, also famous for its _steak and cowheel pie. Fine food indeed before taking the sea air om the prom and boarding-a tram for a front seat view of the lights of the Golden Mile.

The meal was still further enhanced by excellent company and good wine, which flowed freely under the. guidance of the sommalier cellerman and master of keys, known to all as Jolly Jack, who was on-° ly too willing to share his knowledge of fine beverage with us.
