Mrs. Ula Chambers presided at the organ, three young people provided the prelude viz: Brian McGill, piano solos "Church In The Wildwood" and "How Great Thou Art", Linda Sharp, organ solos "I Believe" and "Theme From Love Story", Judy Virtue - piano solo, "Color My World". The Call To Worship and Prayer of Invocation were given by Joyce Chambers, Allan Ashton led in the responsive reading. The first anthem by the Sunday School Choir of 40 members was "Jesus Is King". Twenty happy faced Juniors sang their anthem from memory "Does God Ever Laugh" and answered their question with "Yes, he does, like you and me."

In his children's story he employ- ed a bit of magi, with handkerchiefs and rope. His sermon stressed unselfish- ness, he stated all evils are due to selfishness, with all wanting rights yet shirking responsibilities which goes back to events in the Garden of Eden. He emphasized four points: 1. Responsibilities of parents, and church leaders, 2. There really is Life Eternal, 3. God does answer prayer and is very much alive, 4. Our allegiance should not be for personal gain. By special request the choir repeated the anthem "High Upon the Mountain" which seemed to underline the speaker's ness- age. Our minister welcomed everyone, especially those for whom it was a homecoming and expressed appreciation to our guest speaker. Receiving the Offering were Allan Werry, Keith McGill, Kelly Simpson, and James Werry. Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Wilson and family weré royal- ly entertained for the dinner hour at the home of a fellow farmer, Mr. and Mrs. Ross Sharp and family.
