Sunday morning service, August 11, 2019, under the leadership of Rev. Peggy along with guest speaker, Eldon Godfrey, focussed on the topic of Peace. The following scripture selections, read by Betsy Woolner, supported Eldon's Reflection, entitled "Peace Ponderings." From Hebrews 12:14 "Make every effort to live in peace with everyone," from Romans 12:18 "If it is possible as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone" and from Romans 14:19 "Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and mutual edification." Carlie Jean and Eldon's granddaughter, Josie Smith, was guest Soloist along with Gianetta Baril on harp. Josie sang the familiar song "Let There Be Peace on Earth, " offering support for her grandfather's reflection.

Next week, August 18, 2019, Rev. Peggy McDonagh will be leading the service and our guest musician will be Jack Olszewski on the piano.
