Showtime is 8 p.m. Tickets are $6 with proceeds benefitting the Shriners Hospitals for Crippled Children, Most Canadians already know what foreign audiences are delighted to discover: this is not just another military band, a news release says. For one thing, there’s the repertoire: a@ march or two and ceremonial music, of course, when required. However, the typical concert program opens with crowd-pleasing Peppy arrangements familiar to all: themes from film and television “pops’’ versions of ‘toncert hall classics or innovative medieys from the charts, Light-hearted banter from one of the band’s several emcees smooths the way for changes of mood as the musicians’ particular talents with in- Strumental interpretations of the works of such Canadian greats as Anne Murray, Gordon Lightfoot, David Foster and Andre Gagnon. Or the band may play a few of the it has from Canadian composers such as Howard Cable, Rick Wilkins or Gordon Nicholson. There are plenty of vocals too, featuring the singing talents of several band members. Shriners Hospitals provide care to children under age 18 years with medical problems such as curvature of the spine, bone diseases and or- thopedic problems of cerebral palsy. There are 22 complete and modern hospitals, three of which are for the treatment of burns. All treatment is provided at no cost to the patients, parents or any third party. No local, provincial or federal funding of any kind is sought or accepted by Shriners Hospitals. Financing of the hospitals is sup- ported primarily by income from the Shriners Hospitals for Crippled Children Endowment Fund which is maintained through donations. The Shrine Hospital closest to the East and West Kootenays is in Spokane. Jenny's Cafe HELP YOUR CARRIER Your Castlegar News car- rier will be collecting for the paper during the next few days.

The participants started off with a warm-up led by Podovinikoff. The pace then |. quickened as Dean set the pace for the cardio segment. After a short juice break, Ross in- troduced the Reebok Steps and PULPIT & PEW Rev. DOROTHY BARKER St. David's Anglican Church Jesus Christ is risen today! The Day of Resurrection is for Christians the. supreme festival. The hymns of triumphant gladness are the order of the day. We proclaim that Christ is risen. That proclamation Proclamation about God, humanity, about the world and all creation. It is a proclamation that all that separates, injures and destroys has been overcome by that which unites, heals and creates. Death, the ultimate destroyer has been swallowed up in victory. Do you believe this? Human experience is aware that all the richness of life, all the growth, discovery, passion and beauty that life offers must end in death. And our experience is also aware of other kinds of death. Although we may be able to envisage perfect states of human feélationships, social justice or inner peace, all our efforts to reach such a kingdom end in defeat. The best we can expect is to be given moments in our growing and working lives, in our loving, in our efforts to be people of integrity and creativity when we may catch fleeting glimpses of the unity, peace or ec- Stasy that we long for. We witness many kinds of dying. We see the noblest deeds and the loveliest personalities brutally crushed by others, by tragedy or by seemingly tragic events. We see great human creations, empires, ivi political i wither and crumble because of some flaw or weakness which anyone can see but mo one can prevent or correct. The name for all this is neither fashionable nor frequently acknowledged. In the Bible it is called sin. We have made that word into something petty and have forgotten its dark and terrible power. Lest we be overwhelmed by that ominous power, we seek for something to lift and inspire the human spirit. We look for a greater, more worthy power. We look for the power of God. We look for new life, resurrec- tion. In our search, however, we tend to forget that the prelude to resurrec- tion is powerlessness. When in life we are personally diminished by suf- fering and reduced to feelings of futility and despair, when we are anxious about economic and political systems that seem no longer to be ef- fective, when we seem on the brink of total annihilation through ecological or military disaster, then we experience that sense of powerlessness. Finally, in the face of death, we are truly powerless. Once in time, the ultimate per- sonification of all human goodness, truth and beauty offered himself to the total human experience of living, loving, suffering and dying. He em- braced all the beauty and joy of life. He also accepted all the darkness of human experience and entered into the mystery which all of us enter, galled death. Christians find in Jesus nailed to the cross the universal symbol of that powerlessness. If the prelude to resurrection is powerlessness, - the first sign of even dreamed of, @ fulfilment beyond our power to conceive, Whatever vague hope Jesus’ first followers might have had for their movement was fulfilled in a way they could never have imagined. The Power of God had raised Jesus from the dead. The self-same power, that unimaginable power that has created the universe in all its beauty and \. Here’s My Card diversity, has overcome death in a new creation. For resurrection is God creating. New life that confronts all that separates, injures and destroys and overcomes by the power of God to unite, heal and recreate. Christ is risen indeed! everyone for an exciting half-hour. Hart then. had everyone swinging their dance partners for the fourth segment, and after another juice break, participants cooled down with some interesting floor work, again led by Podovinikoff. ‘$ rove tines + s BREATHER WDNEY TOURS West's Travel < 365-7782 1385 Bay Ave., Trail 368-6666 OREGON /CALIFORNIA COAST & CRUISE Moy 13-26. 199 SPRINGTIME ON THE ISLAND April 11-19, 1991 — 9 Day ay: >, Castlegar News Wayne Stolz Caroline Sou' koroft Paul Stoochno PADVERTISING OFFICE 365-5210 © FAX PAINTING @ DECORATING 2649 FOURTH CASTLEGAR og VIN 287 CROISSANTS Are Back Again * Egg Salad Croissant * Turkey Croissant Both served with homemade fries AVAILABLE AFTER 10:30 a.m WE ACCEPT WESTAR, CELGAR AND COMINCO MEAL VOUCHERS 1004 Columbia * Ph. 365-8155 Our Super Saver rate just got sweeter!
