After being rained out three times this year on our Canada Day Celebrations we did let the fireworks off under adverse conditions and now we can put it to rest until the last Saturday in June, 2002. We haven't had frost yet so | don't believe we can call this Indian Summer. My volunteers and that good day on Saturday made the town look great again. Last Thursday afternoon my wife, Eileen, had a terrible fall at our front step. Oct. 9 is our 53rd wedding anniversary, but I'm afraid we can't go very far as she is showing a beautiful shiner along with a bruised forehead, foot, elbow, hand and knees.

Church News By Val Chapman Following our highly successful dinner last Saturday night, we attended a benefit concert, held on our behalf, at Port Perry Emmanuel Pentecostal Church. We understand that several churches were represented there: Brooklin Village Church, Emmanuel, Port Perry Living Waters from Uxbridge, Victory in Port Perry, and Market Place. It was a very enjoyable evening with Christian artists giving us of their best to help us raise funds to restore our chyirch. Among these were: Heathet McCullough, Pastor Jonathan Bell, John Blair, Eldon Wideman, Terry Posthumus, Pastor Debra Keeserbrink and company, Esther Bursey, and Victoria Rensink. Total funds raised exceeded $2,500. The thermome- ter sign continues to rise. And we extend our appreciation and grateful thanks to all who partici- pated in making it happen. The restoration work at the church continues under the watchful eye of "Jim" and he tells me help is needed badly in .painting, plumbing, woodworking and other areas. If you are thinking of helping in any way, please drop by to see him. The Lord's work needs your skills. By the way, we are very glad to report that our exotic bird is found. Particularly as doubt was cast on the turkey part of Saturday night's dinner menu. Shame on you, Jim. Bon appetit.
