Nestleton-Caesarea News 'by Mabel Cawker Well! I haven't forgotten about you out there! Not a chance! Yours truly is now feeling much better...and hopes to get back in- to the 'swing of things once again' after what you might say...a few weeks respite...a bit of a break...or whatever! So many folks have written in saying...get back on the news...what is wrong with you? We miss the Nestleton- Caesarea news very much! You adorable people! That"s all I need to get back into action! Your correspondent has lots of determination and the will to achieve...she does not accept defeat very easily. 'Beating the odds" is nothing new for her...she is perhaps virtually alone in her belief that she can make an ex- cellent recovery quickly after the fall...and she has never lost her incentive in that respect. All that and much, much more tend to be her make up." Nestleton Afternoon U.C.W. Unit Meets The very interesting meeting of Nestleton UCW -- afternoon Unit -- was held at the delightful home of Leader Jean Williams, on the 12th of January. Jean welcomed all and opened with a peom, 'Our Help" by Jon Gilbert. The hymn, "0, Master Let Me Walk With Thee" was sung, accompanied by the tape recorder. Scripture from Acts 3: I-I0 was read by Helen Vine, telling the story of Peter healing the lame man. Jean read the explanation of the Scripture passages, "We may not be able to 'heal someone, but we can make life more pleasant by the little acts of kindness to our fellowmen. Following the hymn, "In Christ There Is No East Or West,"' Jean read the lovely story, 'Footprints in the Sand.'* Helen gave an in- spiring paper on 'Faith for the New Year" and closed with a peom, "Life's Symphony." The Roll Call -- How to spice up the 1988 program -- was answered with good suggestions. Payment of dues followed. Minutes were read and approved and the financial report given. Correspondence included several thank you notes and donations. An invitation to St. Andrew's Church, Oshawa, on Feb. 29, for "An Evening with the Moderator at 7:30 P.M. was received." A peti- tion against Sunday shopping was circulated. Plans for lunch at the congregational meeting on Feb. 21 was made. Meeting closed with Mizpah Benediction. Hostess Jean Williams and Helen Vine served a delicious lunch of fruit bread, cheese and squares. A social time was en- joyed over the tea cups. Gwen Malcolm moved a vote of thanks to those responsible for the wor- thwhile program and tasty lunch. A splendid beginning for 1988! Warmest Wishes Sorry, that a good friend John Hall, Williams Point & Port Perry, has been a patient" in Oshawa General Hospital. We trust John will be "fine and dan- dy" soon and home before he knows it. All the best from the Nestleton friends, and keep your chin high John! It really helps!

Sympathy Extended We deeply sympathize with Mary Lou Fitton of Nestleton Store, in the loss of her father, Mr. Russell Tilon of Elmvale, who passed away on Tuesday, in a Toronto Hospital. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Mary Lou, at this sad time. Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to Arthur Weir of Nestleton, in the passing of Art's mother, Mrs. Jean Weir of Peterborough. She will be sadly missed by a host of family and friends. We were indeed saddened to learn of the sudden passing of Robert F. Walden, beloved hus- band of one of our Nestleton girls...Doris Williams. He leaves to mourn, besides his loving wife, daughter Muriel of Mississauga and son Richard and Diane Walden of Nepean. Robert F. Walden will be very much miss- ed by many relatives and friends. He was Principal of Waterdown District High School for over 30 years retiring in 1973. A man in- terested in family and communi- ty affairs! Our deepest sympathy to Doris and family!

Marion Hall and her two granddaughters Rachael and Rebecca Hall, were the greeters at the door. Chuck Hill conducted the service and us- ed as his theme, "Thc Comforting Church." A most appealing message based on Scripture 1st Corinthians 9: 16-23 & Mark I: 29-39, read by Arlene Malcolm. The children's theme was taken by Carol Hill...who did a super task, telling the young fry a story about helping those in need...well illustrated!
