WESLEYVILLE March and February seem to have reversed themselves foT~975~at least as far~as "the weather is concerned. This past weekend has been very cold and Friday's snowstorm was about the heaviest of the year. Most of those who enjoy snowmobiling took advantage of the good conditions both night and day during the weekend, and t e local people who possess cutters and the horses to draw them, were out driving. Birds stayed closely around the feeders and espec- 747 ially the jays, made their wants known. . Friday was the World's Day of Prayer and between 50 and 60 people came to, Welcome United Church to which al township churches bad been invited. The service for this year had been prepared by the Christian women of the Arab republic of Egypt and was used round the world. The theme song was "Become perfectly one" and was sung several times throughout the service first by a represent- ative choir and then by the assembly. ,Mrs. R. Bartlett had led the different groups in learning the new tune. Mrs. R. Newton led in the responsive service and was assisted by Mesdames T. Wilson, L. Osland, B. Wheeler, N. Brist- owe. Prayers were read from fine different world Christian Churches by as many women, from Canton, Garden Hill, Welcome and Perrytown Churches. The offering was received by Mrs. G. Byers and Mrs. K. Ashby, the benedict- ion wastpronounced by Bey. R. Bartlett. Following the service a short time of fellowship was spent wbile tea 7 was served. Everyone was anxious to get away home for weather and road conditions were very difficuit. The executive of the UCW met at Welcome Church on Tuesday morning, March 4 with about 15 present. The business of the morning was conducted by the president Mrs. Wilson and concerned the progress made by commit- tees on the various projects programmed for the next few months. Sunda ywas a beautiful wintry day, although a few lanes had stiff drifts that required a littie shovelling. In spite of this there was a gond attendance at Welcome rCburch with an extra Lenten message from John Groene- veld to assist Bey. R. Bartlett a t the beginning of the service. The special message for the children was one of bappiness and Bey. Bartlett's sermon was a plea for concern for others. He urged hîs congre- gation to read the current issue of the Observer to learn of how sorne have to ive. The schoir's anthem was "God so loved the world" and following the service, the junior and senior choirs practiced toget-, her for coming special music. y Clarence Nîchols is home from Bowmanville hospital but stili under doctor's care.
