SHOP WITH EASE AND SUPPORT THE FOOD BANK – John vanTeunenbroek owner of No Frills in Shelburne holds one of the new “quarter key
chains” now available for purchase. The chains, which hold a 25 cent piece – keeping it handy for the weekly shopping cart – are selling for $2, but $1
of every sale will go to the Shepherd’s Cupboard Food Bank in Shelburne. “There was a demand for the item and I saw an good opportunity to tie it
to the Food Bank,” says Mr. vanTeunenbroek, who started the initiative. As a grocery store owner, he says he sees a direct link between his business
and the Food Bank and believes it should be his primary community cause.

Heritage fest aims to become new Shelburne tradition
BY MARNI WALSH
The Old Time Canadian Fiddle Championship will become the foundation of a new Shelburne tradition, says Lynda Buffet, Chair of the
new Heritage Music Festival.
This is just the first of several major announcements to come from the Shelburne Rotary Club about the format changes for the 2016
event.
The Rotary Club’s 65-year history of hosting
the Fiddle Championship is one the Heritage
Music Festival Committee wants to build on
“by creating a new tradition.”
To achieve this, Ms. Buffet says the organization “will be showcasing a variety of talented
Canadians of all musical styles during our festival.”
“[Rotary wants to] create a new level of excitement in the Town, especially now that we
have so many new residents moving into our
area,” says Buffet.
The Club wants to “include as many new
venues as possible,” she said, “so that all the
thousands of cars that drive through Shelburne
every weekend would see that this was going
to be an exciting and dynamic music event that
they would have to attend.”
The goal is to attract all ages and demographics to the area, she says.
“We have a large campground that could be

booked to maximum capacity with a variety of
music venues all over town. It seems to be already morphing into a much bigger event than
first thought and I believe that because the ideas
are new and exciting, we are attracting more
ideas and talent from within the community to
make this first year a really great kickoff as a
new music festival.”
Ms. Buffet, who also serves as Chair of the
Town Hall Art Gallery and the Performing and
Visual Arts Committee, says she is eager to get
started on making the festival a success.
“Whenever I take on a responsibility for a
project, I jump right into it and with this project
what gets me really excited is all creative ideas
that come from working with an ever-expanding group of other creative thinkers,” she says.
“It helps make the workload more manageable.
“These committees will quite likely become
more involved as the project comes together, as
well as all the other service clubs in town and
any other new groups that we may attract.”
Rotary wants their community partners, other
service clubs and sponsors, to be aware of the
changes to the event.
“We want to have everyone on board together,” says Buffet.
Well known locally as a talented artist, Ms.
Buffet is taking over the publicity for the festival and unveiled the new logo last week.
She says the new emblem, designed for the
Heritage Music Festival, reflects its “look and
feel” and “depicts both the colourful vibrant
events we have planned as well as creating a
sense of fun and excitement you won’t want to
miss.”
In order to fund the festival entertainment, the
Rotary Club depends on the generous support of
sponsors to make the event a success.
Ms. Buffet says she is “pleased to announce
that we have a brand new major sponsor on
board to kick off our fund raising campaign.”

Snowballs and slap shots
new for “Shelbrrfest”
By Marni Walsh
Shelbrrfest returns February 15 to celebrate
Family Day, and all the traditional outdoor fun
that comes with great Canadian winters.
This year, the organizers have added more
events, including a new snow ball throw hosted
by Shelburne Minor Ball, and a slap shot contest
hosted by the Shelburne Muskies, which will
make this year even better due to the club’s “awesome support,” said Committee Chair Dan Sample.
The snow-filled activities will begin at 11 a.m.
at Fiddle Park, off of 2nd Line south of No Frills.
It is the second year for the event, first organized
by Councillor Dan Sample and his wife Cherie in
2015 to bring the community together in the dark
days of February and beat the winter blues.
The event is held in conjunction with the Kin
Clubs of Shelburne and with significant help from
local business sponsorships.
The 2016 Shelbrrfest Committee includes Dan
Sample as Chair, Francine Burt as Vice Chair,
Sandra Cormier as Secretary, and Tom Egan as
Treasurer. Additional members include Cherie Sample, Nikki Williams, Bob Turnbull, and
Christine Walker.
Organizers accomplished their goal last year,
bringing in over 400 happy Shelburne and area
residents to join in the activities, raising approximately $800 in donations at the gate.
Many positive comments could be heard
throughout the day and everyone hoped the event
would return.
“This is an amazing event for all ages to come
out and enjoy a snowy day in Shelburne,” says
Councillor Sample.
“Everything we had last year will return this
year,” along with the new snowball and slap shot
contests.
Vintage Snowmobile is expected to show some
old model snowmobiles and there will be a horse
and wagon ride.
Sure to be popular again this year are the snow
riding tubes with the tube hill designed by Quail
Construction and sponsored by the Beavers and
Cubs of Shelburne.
Good Dog Carting will be able to take the kids
for a dog cart ride for only $2 once again this year.
In 2015, the hard work dogs and their owners
raised $450 for the Shepherd’s Cupboard Food
Bank to purchase pet food for clients in need of
assistance.
This year, the money raised from the dog sled
rides will go to the Off Leash Park Committee.
Families will also be able to take a tour of the
Shelburne Police Service vehicle and ask questions of Town Officers.
Shelburne and District Fire Board will have
the fire truck on display, manned by local fireman
ready to answer questions about fire safety for
families.
Once again, the fire warming station, with wood
donated by Stump Busters, will be available for
warming up between climbs on “snow mountain.”
From the top of the mountain, families will be
able to get a great view of the sites, including the
school snow castles.
Last year’s castle competition was won by
Centennial Hylands P.S., which received $800 towards a new computer by event sponsors.
LP Stage Productions will be performing at the
event presenting music from past productions as
they warm up for their latest production The Wizard of Oz coming this May to Grace Tipling Hall.
The Kinette kitchen will be busy serving up hot
dogs, French fries and hot chocolate to go with the
fun and entertainment.
Councillor Sample says the Committee hopes
to see even better attendance this year.
“That is why we need to keep adding new
things for families to do,” he said.
Funding and volunteers are need, he told the
Free Press.
“Without the volunteers, this event would not
run. It is great to see volunteers help out and be
part of the community. Without sponsors, again, it
would be difficult to run – from money donations
to time and equipment to help set this event up.”
Organizers send out thanks all sponsors who
returned as well as ten more new businesses from

Up-and-coming The Road Heavy
headline fundraiser to raise a “barn”
By Michelle Janzen
With their sights set on raising a pole barn at
Fiddle Park, Heather and Greg Holmes of Holmes
Appliances came up with Pickin’ in the Park
which began with approximately 85 performers
in 2014.
In 2015, this weekend-long open mic, old time
jamboree weekend long event saw over 100 performers take the stage. Currently, this event is
being held on the Town of Shelburne’s portable
stage with a very large tent covering a small area
in front of the stage for dancing and spectators.
With an estimated cost of $130,000 to erect a
structure at Fiddle Park, and an additional $75,000
still needed, the Shelburne Kinsman are contributing by holding a fundraising dance with hopes of
seeing this dream become a reality.
That being said, the local Kinsman are proud
to present three bands at the Shelburne Legion on
Saturday, March 26.
Blackdog Ballroom are a Rock and Roll band
whose sound is an electric mix of influences ranging from Pop to Punk, Mod to Motown, which
has cultivated a distinct blend that is their unique
sound.
Visual Negative, a fairly new band, will also
be on hand performing covers of their favourite
bands, such as AC/DC, The Muse, and The Headstones, to name just a few.
Headlining the event are The Road Heavy.
Being together just over two years, the band has
grown quite a long list of accomplishments.
This five member band consists of Pat James,
Jules Cardoso, Ryan Blake, Andre DaSilva and
Jeff Cox.
After coming together as a band after a series
of random meetings through someone who knew
someone, this band, after just one year of performing, won Local and Loud, a radio contest hosted
by Barrie’s Rock 95, last April.
Since winning, the band has just completed a
whirlwind of recording and touring with the likes
of The Headstones, Jeff Martin of the Tea Party,
Scott Weiland of Stone Temple Pilots, who recently passed away, as well as toured with Gilby
Clark, guitarist of Guns and Roses.
They also recently won Favorite Single for their
song Your Place or Mine as well as Favorite Up
and Coming Band at the Canadian Beats Awards.
James and Blake of the band describe their sound
as Southern Rock Blues type music and state that
each member of the band brings their own unique
influence and contributions, which helps with the
creative process of writing their songs. James and
Cardoso are both lead singers, and James is also
the main songwriter for the band.
When asked what he does to come up with lyr-

Pat James spent some time with the Shelburne

ics for songs, Blake quickly chimed in.
“Go for a ride with him in his car,” he said, to
which James elaborated he “hops in his car and
records melodies and lyrics that just come to him
while driving.”
As for what they are doing now, James and
Blake told the Shelburne Free Press they are
brainstorming their path forward.
“After being so busy, we are currently taking
some time off to plan for the future, record, and
there are talks of a future tour,” they said.
Reviews of The Road Heavy say this band is
what you get when you put miles and miles on the
road, city after city, show after show and a “do it
you own way” kind of attitude. While others state
they play heavy and loud with a gritty and alluring
sound with raw electric power.
This event is being held at the Shelburne Legion, Saturday March
26th, with doors opening at 8 pm.

Decrease in auto insurance
rates was a stretch
BY SYLVIA JONES, MPP
DUFFERIN-CALEDON
In 2013, the Liberal government promised
to lower auto insurance rates by fifteen per
cent by August 2015, in order to gain NDP
support for their budget.
As the August deadline passed, and as we
begin a new year, the goal of a fifteen per
cent reduction has become another unfulfilled promise.
After multiple missed deadlines, and rates
nowhere near the fifteen per cent reduction,
the Premier finally admitted that her promised fifteen per cent reduction was a “stretch
goal.”
What is a stretch goal?
One can only assume it is one made that
you’re confident you can’t achieve!
Auto insurance rates are a major concern
for Ontarians and, in particular, in the Greater Toronto Area; as we pay twice as much
compared to the Maritime Provinces and 45
per cent more than Albertans.
Over the last couple of years, residents
of Dufferin-Caledon have seen a spike in
their auto insurance rates due to postal code
changes made by Canada Post.
In one case, an individual informed me that
their insurance increased by five hundred dollars because their postal code had changed.
We contacted the Financial Services Commission of Ontario (FSCO) on behalf of residents and FSCO issued a bulletin notifying
insurance companies they could not increase
insurance premiums based on postal code
changes and must maintain the insurance
rates that existed prior to the changes.
Another individual called my office and
informed us that their rates were going up
even though she never had an accident, drove
average vehicles, and lived in a safe neighborhood.
Fortunately, my office was able to help resolve this issue, and many issues like it.
It’s important when attempting to lower
auto insurance rates that all changes must be
done thoughtfully and with a thorough understanding of what is causing the increases.
The PC Caucus has continuously recommended the government tackle insurance
fraud, which is a major reason for high insurance premiums. In 2012, the Ontario Automobile Insurance Anti-Fraud Task Force
brought forward thirty-eight recommendations on how to tackle the issue of fraud.
Unfortunately, as of July 2015, the government has acted on very few of their recommendations.
I encourage the government to tackle the
issue of fraud, instead of making promises
they never intended to keep.

OTTAWA JOURNAL: Are You Interested in
becoming a CBSA Officer?
BY DAVID TILSON, MP
The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA)
has a wide range of responsibilities as a federal
agency.
Their responsibilities range from: enforcing
laws, facilitating trade entering Canada, assisting visitors to Canada, to securing our borders.
The broad range of services and programs
performed by the CBSA requires skilled and
professional individuals to carry out these responsibilities.
Becoming a CBSA officer can be an exciting
and rewarding career opportunity to help ensure Canada’s borders remain safe and secure.
In order to apply to be a CBSA officer, there
are some basic requirements that you must
meet, which include: successful completion of
a secondary school education; holding a valid
driver’s license; and the successful completion of the Canadian Firearms Safety Course
(CFSC), as well as the Canadian Restricted
Firearms Safety Course (CRFSC). You must
also pass the tests.
More information on these courses may be
found on the Canadian Firearms Program website (www.rcmp-grc.gc.ca). It is also important
to know you are responsible for all of the costs
associated with these requirements and that you
may be asked to show proof that you’ve met
them at any point during the assessment process.
Another important factor to consider if
you’re contemplating a career with the CBSA
is that you must be fully prepared and committed to relocating anywhere within Canada for
an assigned posting.
For example, this could mean accepting a
posting in a rural or remote area of the country.
There is, of course, a range of locations
available, as well as a process where you may
express your preference of location, but at the
end of the day, it is highly possible that you
will be assigned and you must be prepared to
move yourself and your family to another area
of Canada that may be completely unfamiliar
to you.
Another consideration is that you will be
required to become familiarized with CBSA’s
mission, vision, and the Agency’s Code of Conduct. All employees of the CBSA, including
those in training, must adhere to the Code and
policy.
Any breaches of the policy are sternly addressed, which may include: discipline, release
from the training or development programs,
termination (for public servants), and/or legal
action.
In addition to the other requirements, all applicants wishing to apply to the CBSA Officer
Trainee – Developmental Program must read
and understand the requirements as shown in
the job advertisement.
During the training period in Rigaud, Quebec, CBSA will provide coverage of the following costs: room, board, food, uniforms, one
return trip from the trainee’s home to the college, and a stipend of $125 per week for minor
personal expenses that may be incurred.
Once wwyou’ve applied to the CBSA and it
has decided you’ve met the basic requirements
and you’ve accepted the personal decision
point on mobility from the job advertisement,
there are several remaining steps to take before
becoming a border services officer:
1) Pass written standardized test(s), interview(s), medical, and psychological tests
2) Complete CBSA’s physical abilities standard, the Physical Abilities Requirement Evaluation in 4:45 minutes or less
3) Obtain and be able to maintain a secret security clearance as per CBSA security standards
4) Complete the Officer Induction Training
Program
5) Meet and be able to maintain the Conditions of Employment as outlined in the job advertisement
6) Complete the Officer Induction Development Program as an officer trainee. After successfully completing these steps, you are then
eligible to be appointed as a border services
officer.
The road to becoming a CBSA officer may
be a very involved process and require a great
deal of commitment, but is very worthwhile,
as it can be a very interesting and gratifying
career opportunity. If you would like to learn
more about becoming a border services officer,
please visit the CBSA website at www.cbsa.

Three charged after pot and hash oil
seized in weekend R.I.D.E.
This past weekend’s R.I.D.E. program in Shelburne resulted in a number of drug arrests and
charges, according to the Shelburne Police.
During R.I.D.E. spot checks on Friday and
Saturday night, three people in three separate vehicles were arrested and charged with drug possession. Roadside investigations were launched
when vehicles entering the R.I.D.E. programs
caught the attention of officers.
A small quantity of marijuana was seized from
two vehicles while, in a third vehicle, a passenger
was found with a small vial of hash oil and some
pot.
All three male parties were arrested and
charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance under the Controlled Drugs and Substance
Act. All were released on appearance notices
with the first appearance court dates set for the

Police, Snowmobile Club caution
residents about unsafe ice
The weather has been erratic over the past
week or two, and the Ontario Provincial Police
are warning people to be cautious and stay off
lakes, ponds and rivers.
In the wake of a tragic weekend that claimed
the lives of three snowmobilers on frozen wa-
NOTICE TO CREDITORS AND OTHERS
All claims against the Estate of Margaret McCreary,
late of the Town of Orangeville, in the County of
Dufferin, who died on or about the 16th day of
October, 2015, must be filed with the undersigned
Estate Trustees on or before the 11th day of February,
2016, thereafter, the undersigned will distribute the
assets of the said estate having regard only to the
claims then filed.
terways, the OPP and the Ontario Federation of
Snowmobile Clubs (OFSC) are warning snowmobilers about unsafe ice and urging everyone,
including anglers, to stay off lakes and rivers.
In one incident over the weekend, four snowmobilers went through the ice on a lake in the
Haliburton Region and one of them drowned. In
another incident, a snowmobiler and his passenger were travelling on a Georgian Bay-area lake
and died after reportedly colliding with rocks on
an island. The ice was not safe enough to get to
the victims by ground and they had to be recovered by helicopter.
No ice is 100 per cent safe.
The winter’s late start and persisting mild temperatures throughout the Province make current
ice conditions extremely dangerous. Even when
sufficient ice forms, it is never 100 per cent safe
to snowmobile on. Staying off the ice altogether
is the only sure way to prevent snowmobile tragedies from occurring on waterways.
A personal choice? Think again.
Some snowmobilers call riding on frozen waterways a “personal choice.”
This is not the case when you and your snowmobile go through the ice and police, other emergency personnel and civilians have to try to rescue you on that same unsafe ice.
To avoid unnecessary risks and get home safely after your ride, the OPP and OFSC recommend
that snowmobilers adhere to available, land-based
OFSC trails whenever possible. OFSC clubs provide many trails that avoid water crossings altogether and include bridges and culverts that allow
you to pass over water crossings safely.
If parts of the province experience sustained
periods of cold temperatures in the coming days
or weeks, carefully assess ice conditions before you head out on frozen waterways. If you
do choose to snowmobile on lakes, cross only
where a marked stake line is in place and go directly from shore to shore, without stopping on
the ice.
Your Ice Safety Checklist:
• Check ice thickness and quality before riding
onto any frozen waterway.
• Only travel where ice is already well-tracked
and others are present, and where ice roads and
fishing huts are in place.
• Be mindful that ice conditions can vary from
day-to-day, from hour-to-hour and from one location to the next.
• Never travel on ice alone, at night or while im-
Page 5
paired by alcohol or drugs.
• Avoid slushy or untracked ice or ice near moving water or dock bubblers.
• Watch out for obstacles like rocks, stumps,
docks, ice roads and fishing huts.
• Wear a buoyant snowmobile suit and carry ice
picks.
• Do not travel on ice for several days after any
mild temperatures and stay off the ice altogether
as soon as spring temperatures stay at or above
0˚C.
The OPP and OFSC are asking snowmobilers
to remember every time they head out for a ride,
that their loved ones expect and need them to get
home safely. Don’t let your family be the ones
who answer the door to a police officer who has
to deliver the devastating news that their loved
one died in a snowmobile incident.

Fun at Family Play Day returns with Aaron Downey
By MARNI WALSH
It was fun for the whole family
at Dufferin County Museum and
Archives (DCMA) with NHL’s
Aaron Downey.
Downey “brought out oodles of
families even though it was super
cold,” says Nanci Malek, Marketing and Promotions Coordinator
for the Museum.
This year should prove to be a
bit milder, but just as much fun.
Families are invited to come
celebrate “togetherness at the
Museum with a host of fun indoor
and outdoor winter activities” on
Monday, February 15 from 1 pm
to 4 pm.
Join Aaron Downey once again
for a ball hockey scrimmage, take
aim with the snowball throwing
challenge, or snowshoe around
the grounds. Inside, kids can explore the museum, warm up at
the hot chocolate station, make
a pinecone bird feeder, cozy up
with a book in the reading nook,
or play board games.
Kids can also test their shootout skills with Spenser’s Kids,
which raises funds in support of
children who cannot afford to
play hockey, assisting them with
gear and registration fees.
“Family Play Day is all about
spending time as a family celebrating each other and local
heritage,” says Julie McNevin,
Education Programmer for the
Museum.
Dufferin County Museum and
Archives is located on 936029
Airport Road at Hwy #89 only
minutes west of Shelburne.
For more information call 519941-1114.
Cost for Family Fun Day is $8.
Kids 5 and under free.

Glenbrook Elementary students have raised the dance bar to a
goal of $12,000 this year, up $2,000 from last year at their annual
dance-a-thon.
Last year, the students danced for fun and fundraising with a
“Freaky Friday” theme. This year, the theme will be “Masquerade” with music provided, once again, by Jerry Daniels from JD
DJ Services.
Funds from the February 12 dance will go to a number of
School Council projects, including the playground, Scientists in
the School, Artists in the School, library programs and books.
“Our school is only three years old, so the needs are very
high,” says Jennifer Allen, School Council secretary. “Our yard
is quite barren and we have many technology and curriculum
support needs within the school.”
Once again, the Scotiabank funds matching program will
match all the money raised by the students up to $5,000. Glenbrook Elementary, located at 300 Fiddle Park Lane, is Shelburne’s newest school.
It opened in 2013 without any playground equipment.
The School Council and the Playground Committee have been
working very hard ever since to raise money for the equipment,
which will cost in the tens of thousands of dollars.
Students and parents continue to be creative with traditional
fundraising, including pizza days, candy grams and the biggest
fund raiser of the year: the February dance-a-thon.
The school hopes to build an outdoor fenced-in concrete pad
and an interactive play area to create an area for physical exercise, but also one that will facilitate the arts, science, math and
language components of the school curriculum.
Students fill pledge sheets with sponsorships from families
and friends; for every $5 raised the student receives a ballot for
prizes.
Jennifer Allen says the students chose the prize they wish to
have a chance to win by placing their ballot in the draw box for
that prize.
It is the event “the students anticipate every year,” she says.
“It is quite a busy time at Glenbrook next week as students are
collecting donations and making masks for our Dance-a-thon,”
says school council chair Catherine Thompson.
She says she is “not sure what they are more excited about
– dancing all day, winning prizes or the anticipation of what all
their hard work is going towards.”
“We are starting phase two of our yard improvement plan,
which means more opportunity to explore and learn in our surrounding environment,” she adds. “We would like to thank our
community for their support and donations towards make learning fun.”
The effort of the highly motivated parents and kids has not
escaped the eye of local businesses and beyond.
“Donations have been arriving daily,” says Allen.
These donations include:
• Larry’s Small Engines,
• Mansfield Outdoor Centre
• Mansfield Ski Club

wish to make a donation, please contact: Jennifer Allen, Secretary of Glenbrook School Council, at 519-278-9171.

MUSKIES OFF TO THE PLAYOFFS – The Shelburne Senior A Muskies hosted the Lucknow Lancers during the final game of the regular season at the Centre Dufferin Recreation Complex in Shelburne on Saturday, January 30. The Muskies left the ice with a 6 -2 win and will now go onto the “A”
Division playoffs. PHOTO BY BRIAN LOCKHART
Muskies win final regular
season game
By Brian Lockhart
The Shelburne Senior A Muskies wrapped up
the regular season with a 6-2 win over the Lucknow Lancers last Saturday night, January 30, at
the Centre Dufferin Recreation Complex in front
of the largest crowd this year.
After taking a 3-1 lead in the first period, the
Muskies opened it up in the second, scoring three
more, and held on for the rest of the game.
The squad played a particularly aggressive second frame, peppering the Lucknow goalie and
making some impressive dekes around the net to
score.
It was the final game of the regular season.
The Muskies will now go into the playoffs.
The WOAA Senior Hockey is divided into ‘A’
and ‘AA’ playoffs with the ‘A’ going into a round
robin style of tournament to determine their berth
in the playoffs.
The bottom two teams of the South Division
and the bottom three teams of the North Division
will play off in the round robin.
“The five teams have a round robin so we play
each other once, then the top four teams advance
and it’s a best of seven series,” explained Barry
Trood, GM of the Muskies. “There’s best of seven
semi-final and a best of seven final.”
The Muskies struggled this season finishing
with a 5-19 record and 12 points. Mr. Trood, however, said there is a lot of positives that came from
the season.
“We’ve had a full bench all year,” he said. “The
lowest we had was 14 skaters in one game. The
commitment from the players is there this year.
We’ve got a good core of players here.”
Filling the bench at the senior level of hockey
can sometimes be tough considering players have
job and family commitments but Mr. Trood said
they are happy with the way the Muskies players
committed to the season.
The Muskies now have to wait out the final few
games of the season to see the final standings and
that will determine who they face in the opening
round robin tournament.
The mighty Tykes of Shelburne Minor Hockey took to the ice for an exhibition of their hockey skills
on Saturday night during a mini-game held between periods at the Shelburne Muskies game. Several of the Muskies players stayed on the ice to tend goal and to help the Tyles showcase their
skills.

Christian Perspectives: Grace Church of the Nazarene – It is time
By Rev. Bob McLellan
It is time for those who claim to be “Christians,” “followers of Jesus,” “believers,” “children of God” or whatever label you choose
to use for yourself to come to the realization
the Kingdom of God is more than some vague
spiritual eternal realm.
If you are who you say you are, then the
Kingdom of God is now, it is all around you.
When you pray, “Your Kingdom come, your
will be done on earth as it is in heaven,” there
is a personal accountability and responsibility
to be involved in the process of it becoming so.
If you are who you say you are, according to
Matthew 16:19 (NIV) Jesus Christ handed you
“the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever
you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and
whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in
heaven.”
You have the authority and power “in Christ”
to make a difference in this world, right now, if
you should choose to do so! The Kingdom of
God is here now, if Christ is in you.
I hear so many people whining and complaining about how bad things are in the world
and how they believe Jesus is coming soon
to rescue them. The second coming of Jesus Christ is not a day of rejoicing, but a day of
wailing or mourning (Rev. 1:7).
It is not a day of victory for the
Church, it is a day of defeat and judgment
against
the
Church,
because
God´s people failed to take the necessary action to stand up and positively influence this
world for the Kingdom of God.
Gospel Services
It is time for God’s people to stop living in
fear; fear of being perceived as a failure; fear of
not measuring up to some standard; fear of the
unknown if they attempted the extraordinary;
fear of other people’s opinion; fear of change,
and the list could go on and on, couldn´t it?
The Apostle Paul wrote in Romans 8:37, “In
all these things we are more than conquerors
through him who loved us.”
It is time for God´s people to choose to take
action and engage in being the best person they
can be in every area of life. This means being
successful at who you are and what you do in
life.
Earl Nightingale in “The Strangest Secret”
wrote, “Success is the progressive realization
of a worthy goal or ideal.
“SUCCESS WILL BE DIFFERENT FOR
EVERYONE, BUT SHOULD NOT BE DISCREDITED BY ANYONE!”
The critics will say, You should not seek to
be successful because when you do you are
demonstrating pride. Yes, that is a possibility,
but only if you choose to allow it.
Proper self-confidence, balanced with proper stewardship of your life is not pride. It is
responsible accountability in making the best
use of the resources God has given you.
Look at Joseph. Genesis 39:1-3, “Now Joseph had been taken down to Egypt. Potiphar,
an Egyptian who was one of Pharaoh´s officials, the captain of the guard, bought him
from the Ishmaelites who had taken him there.
{2} The LORD was with Joseph and he prospered, and he lived in the house of his Egyptian master. {3} When his master saw that the
LORD was with him and that the LORD gave
him success in everything he did.”
When Joseph was falsely imprisoned for his
moral and ethical stand notice what happened.
Genesis 39:23, “The warden paid no attention
to anything under Joseph´s care, because the
LORD was with Joseph and gave him success
in whatever he did.”
To the critics who would say, but your example is from the Old Testament, consider the
Apostle Paul, who championed the gospel to
the Gentiles of the Roman world of his day,
starting churches in many different locations.
Did he plan and set out to be successful?
I think he did.
1 Corinthians 9:24-27, “Do you not know
that in a race all the runners run, but only one
gets the prize?

Run in such a way as to get the prize.
{25} Everyone who competes in the games
goes into strict training. They do it to get a
crown that will not last; but we do it to get a
crown that will last forever. {26} Therefore, I
do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do
not fight like a man beating the air. {27} No,
I beat my body and make it my slave so that
after I have preached to others, I myself will
not be disqualified for the prize.”
While the ultimate goal and prize
is life in the eternal presence of
God, the journey includes the fact as
a child of God we are already living in the
presence of God and we have a responsibility
and accountability to “live up to what we have
already attained” (Phil 4:16).
It is time to be the best we can be. Being as
successful as we can be is not an option for
God´s people. Jesus makes this clear in the
parable of the talents. The Master gives praise
to the stewards who did their best with what
the had been given. It is time for God´s stewards to make the choice today to be faithful at
being their best within the context of our world
today so as to make this world a better place
because His Kingdom is here now.

DEATHS
Patricia Anne
MacMillan R.N.
9 Nov 1942 – 24 Jan 2016
Our Pat passed away in Campbell
House - Hospice Georgian
Triangle on January 24, felled by
a relentless cancer in what seemed
like the twinkling of an eye. In the short
time after her diagnosis, she fought courageously
and, even near death, remained positive.
Pat was raised in Musselburgh, near Edinburgh,
Scotland, elder daughter of Cecil and Irene
Torrance. She trained in the prestigious nursing
programme of the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh
and, after only five years, was appointed Night
Sister, supervising multiple wards along the
medical corridor. She was asked to take charge of
the two professorial surgical units, but chose to
leave the Royal and join her future husband Jim,
then a physician at the University Hospital of the
West Indies. Pat worked there in the I.C.U. until
they returned to Britain.
In 1971, now with two children, Jim and Pat
crossed the Atlantic to Shelburne, Ontario, to set
up a medical practice in that medically underserviced town. Pat continued nursing and took
on responsibilities running the laboratory and
managing the practice. They built a medical
centre and set about cooperating with the few
other doctors around in serving the medical needs
of the community. It proved to be their main life
work and was to last for thirty-eight years.
Together with Jim and her three children, Pat
enjoyed lovely times skiing in winter and sailing
in summer. She was a sports-lover and enjoyed
seeing the children compete in both those sports.
Pat herself also loved tennis and played at
inter-club level. She loved Scottish country dancing and attended many a glittering ball in
Toronto. She loved sailing in Georgian Bay and
was always up for a wee glass of wine at the
dockside. She was a drummer in the Beinn Gorm
Highlanders Pipe Band. Our Pat had many facets.
Throughout her life, Pat was a beloved friend to
many, adored for her graciousness, vitality, and
kindness. In recent years she made many new
friends in the Probus Club of the Gateway.
Most important to Pat was her family. She was a
loving wife and mother and adoring grandmother.
She assured each of her grandchildren that she
would continue to watch over them, would be
in the wind on their back in the ski race, and at
every dance recital and hockey game. She will be
missed dearly.
Pat is survived by her husband and partner of
forty-eight years, Dr. Jim MacMillan; eldest son,
Stuart, his wife Ju-Hyeon and their daughter
Ciara [5]; daughter Clair, her husband Sam
Kerner, and their two daughters Kaelie [13] and
Alana [12]; and son, Douglas, Douglas’ son
Kieran, Doug’s wife, Lisa Warll, and their three
children Tessa [10], Wesley [8], and Rachael [7].
She is also survived by her sister Mrs. Dorothy
Placido, her husband Prof. Francis Placido and
their two daughters Laura and Anna.
Commemorative service Friday February 12th
2016 at 11 a.m. at First Presbyterian Church,
200 Maple St. Collingwood. In lieu of flowers
donations may be made to Campbell House
– Hospice Georgian Triangle or Collingwood
General & Marine Hospital.

NEW BOOKS
I’ve just finished reading a very thought provoking book, “The
Marble Collector” by Cecilia Ahern.
The story revolves around Sabrina whose father has just been
admitted to a nursing home with the onset of Dementia.
Several boxes that had been stored at his lawyer’s office, arrive at her home. In unpacking them, she discovers a unique and
valuable marble collection.
Her father had always been very secretive about various aspects of his life so, with this unusual discovery, she decides to go
back in time to find out his connection to the marbles.
Her own self-discovery and the close re-connection that she
now establishes with her father changes her life and that of those
