In his address, guest speaker Mark
Telford presented a clear Gospel message to the children. He
chose as his text � �O taste and see that the Lord is Good� and
using a variety of chocolate bars he explained that God made the
Galaxy, Mars, Milky Way and animals (Lion bar). We serve a
great God who made babies (Jelly Babies) but our hearts are
stained with sin (Black Jacks). He asked the children to be
Smarties and trust the Lord Jesus Christ because He can wash
your black heart white (Milky Bar). He went on to say that we
are Drifters through life and explaining that life is no Picnic,
he spoke of the great Bounty of God�s love.
