We welcomed Father Hugh back from his rather brief, but well-deserved holiday. During the service, the chil- dren of the church school, the choir and congregation all joined in singing the anthem, "Who Will Teach the Children,? a most appropriate piece for Mother's Day. At the end of the service, the children presented each lady in the congregation with a beau- tiful plant for her garden. During coffee time, Niva - daughter of Debra Coles, was all smiles as happy birthday greetings were sung for her. by telling of a Canadian + Custom designed in any * No permanent frame size work - Perfect for today's « Hi-tech electronic sun & lifestyle wind control system + + Self-storing + Beautiful fabrics from European designers ooIms = I a KY 'a due Check these features: .
