New year starts | Afternoon of music brings
with Christ

In the beginning God creat-
ed the heavens and the earth
and it was good.

Man and woman were giv-
en dominion over the creation
and it was very good. But all
creation continues to groan
since the fall of man.

The ecologist reminds us it
is time for a new beginning or
it won't be long before all is be-
yond reformation. Our econo-
my is crying vut for anew be-
ginning before it exhausts it-
self and collapses into ruin.

Our political system needs
a revision of its communica-
tions to the people in order to
keep the country from separa-
tion. Wherever we begin we
must start with individual
people and the problems of the
human heart.

Each new year is a time for
introspection, self-examina-
tion and a new resolve. The
most obvious are those areas
that need self-control and
moderation, such as eating,
drinking, smoking and exer-
cise.

All are worthy opponents to
our freedom from habits. If
you are anything like me,
most of my resolutions start
well but finish poorly. Often
we lose our motivation from a
lack of power in our convic-
tions. We soon come to realize
that we don’t have the power
to overcome within ourselves.

Shall we give up on resolu-
tions altogether?

Or shall we appeal to a
higher power than ourselves?

Paul writes, “For I am con-
fident of this very thing, that
He who began a good work in

you will perfect it until the day
of Christ Jesus.” (Phil. 1:6).

Pastor Bob MARSH

It is wonderful to start the
new year with new resolutions
but don’t neglect to begin with
a new beginning. Jesus
promises the power of the
Holy Spirit in salvation, to set
you free from habitual sins.

Start with a new beginning
in Christ and resolve to reform
your life in His power. He has
the power to give a new heart
and bring your desires to com-
pletion.

Man's efforts are commend-
able but often fall short of per-
fection. Eleven years ago my
father received a heart valve
replacement and we are
thankful for the health he has
received. But now the valve is
wearing out and the heart is
still old.

The reforming of man is on-
ly atemporary answer in com-
parison to the eternal promis-
es of God and new life in
Christ.

My prayer for you is that
this will not only be the begin-
ning ofa blessed New Year but
the beginning of a blessed new
life in Christ.

The Castlegar United Church Choir was one of several groups
Musical Celebration of Christmas.

Ron Norman
NEWS COLUMNIST

It was a Christmas cele-
bration of a different sort
Sunday afternoon at the
Castlegar United Church. A
musical celebration.

More than 100 people
filled the church to hear mu-
sic from six different Castle-
gar churches.

The event, called A Musi-
cal Celebration of Christmas,
was organized by the United
Church choir under the di-
rection of Hiroki Kambara.

It is hoped this interde-
nominational celebration, the
first of its kind in Castlegar
in recent years, will turn in-
to an annual affair.

The 75-minute program
featured a trio from St.
David's Anglican Church: Joe
Killough, Margaret Reith
and Helen Dunlop.

St. Rita’s Catholic Church
choir under the direction of
Mary Healing sang four
numbers, including a Por-
tuguese carol and an Italian
carol.

Lenore Laurie and Cathy
Nielsen of Living Waters
Faith Fellowship performed
a lively duet called “What
Can I Do?”

The Sahlstrom Mountain
Gang from the Pentecostal
New Life Assembly provided
yet more diversity with their

rendition of Beautiful Star of

S together

that performed Sunday at the

Bethlehem to the accompa-
nient of fiddle, guitars and

The United Church choir
also performed four numbers,
including the popular Halle-
jah, Peace on Earth and the
Carol for Advent.

Kambara also provided ac-
companiment for soloist Pat
Smith when she sang Panis
Angelicus and Gesu Bambi-
no.

The afternoon of music
was closed out with the trio of
Ira Johnson, Adeline John-
son and Ede Kowalko from
the Kinnaird Church of God
singing Redeeming Love fol-
lowed by solist Brenda
Bergen.
