August 15 Marshall Days Community Worship Service

The annual Marshall Days ecumenical worship service was held in the pavilion behind the Marshall Town Hall, Deansboro, on Sunday, August 15 at 9:30 AM. The Rev Ray Lighthall, pastor of the Living Waters United Methodist Parish, led the service and spoke on the theme, "God has gifted you! How are you using your gifts?" He emphasized the assurance of scripture that all are given gifts for service to others. He noted examples of people who although severely handicapped still discovered and used their gifts. He urged the congregation to use their gifts for their churches, their communities, their families and themselves.

Prayers were said for those in need in the community and for the participating churches. Carol Gilley reported her plans to participate in a United Methodist mission trip to Angol, Chile where her uncle had been a missionary. There was an offering to support the mission project.
