November 12. the gym of Knox Christian School was filled to capacity te celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Reverend Anthony DeJager in the ministry. Members of the Rehob oth congregation as well as friends and former parishion- ers, gathered in an evening of thanksgiving, fun and affect- ionate ribbing. There were hymns and prayers of thanksgiving te God for sending to Rehoboth a man with the dedication, sensitivity and talent of Rev. DeJager. There were* greet- ings from sister churches well spiced with humorous anec- dotes from his career. There was entertainment in honor from each society in, the church. After opening devotions and a welcome extended by the M.C., Mr. John Schievink, the Sunday school children aged 4 te 7 sang a few songs. Their last selection, "We want te shake, shake, shake your hand" had Rev. DeJager shaking shy littie hands, throughout the song. This was hîghly amusing te pastor and flock but for the little ones, it was serieus business. To continue in a musical vein, Mrs. Pat Keenderman led in a sing-a-long spoof on some of the events in the lives of the DeJagers. Betty De- Jager and Betty Snyder played a clarinet duet and Ted Pel played his accordion. Poems were read by repre- sentatives of several groups and the Young People's Society put on a comical skit depicting a day in the pastor's study. Much playful kidding went on and Rev. DeJager was repeatedly reminded of speeding tickets and midriff bulge. The Ladies Society per- formed a poetic summary of a book written by Re v. DeJager years ago, about the first years of the Christian Re- formed Church in Canada and the problems that beset its members, mest of whom were very new immigrants, at times very amusing, more often thought provoking. The highlight of the evening was the presentation of the cengregational gift. This was done in a very unique manner. In a carefully staged quiz show, a combination of Let's Make A Deal and the Price is Right hosted by Peter "Monty Hall" Feddema. Three couples were quizzed on such profundities 'as "which minister of the, Rehoboth Church had the most speeding tickets?" or "Which of the two ministers cheated the worst at the combined Rehoboth- Maranatha picnic, games?" The first and second prize winning couples chose cur- tains' containing i the first case, the couple's own rabbits and in the second case a cage of chickens. Various livestock sounds back stage produced much speculation as to the third curtain left for the losers - the DeJagers. But, surprise! A drawn curtain revealed a new easy chair and a portable typewrîter. Rev. DeJager remarked that since chair and typewriter represented rest and work and the chair was the bigger gift, the, concl usioli must be that hie was expected to do more resting than working. Those who know him, realize nothing is farther from the truth. Rev. De Jager is a dedicated worker with deep concern for others. [ Lflur TELEPHONE 623-6555 JOHN MANUEL,) C.G.A.
