Peterborough Presbyterial U.C.W. Hold l7th Annual Meeting Jan. 30 The theme of the l7th Annual meeting of the Peter- borough Presbyterial United Church Women which opened on the afternoon of Tuesday, January 30th at Mark St. United Church was "Faith". Due te the' quality of the guest speakers and good weather conditions the meet- ing was well attended. After browsing into the literature, a rousing sing-song put everyone "in the mood for a joyful day." Mrs. George Craft, presi- dent' made a f ew opening remarks and Mrs. Charles Arsr= g Mark St. U.C.W. prsdn,welcomed guests and members. St. James U.C.W. had the afternoon worship. The speaker, follow- ing the theme, looked into the Bible for answers to the question: "What is faith?"-- "Do not be doubtful like Thomas" she' said,' "but be- lieve in the Grace of God. As members of the U.C.W. we should use our talents as wisely as we can with the help of God. " A short "In Memoriam service followed and business session, in which the proposed budget of $1155.00 was accept- ed and a Mission and Service objective of $32,500.00. The new Presbyterial executive was elected, Mrs. Clifford Irwin of Keene is the new president. Greetings from the Bay of Quinte Conference U.C.W. were brought by Mrs. Evelyn Redpath. She announced that the Conference Annual meet- ing would be held at Cam- bridge United Church, Lind- say, April 3rd and 4th. The Right Reverend George Tuttle, Moderator of the United Church will be the speaker on the Tuesday even- ing. Mrs. Gwen Walton, Ste- wardship Convener for Con- ference said the Mission and Service Fund goal for 1978 will be reached and the objective for 1979 is $18,750,000. A trio fromn Mark St. United Church with calypso and a skit "The Box" was performed to show that all we have to do to have help is to give love and reach out to Jesus. Several books for group of private study were received by Mrs. Walter Hooper. These included the newest book of Cornie Ten Boom, "A Tramp Finds A Home" also "Healing Prayer" and two collections of poems of the Otonabee area, another was, "Telling My Story, Sharing My Faith" a study from the Last Festival- of Faith. The schools for U.C.W. willl beheld at Quin-mo-lac and Northminister United Church, Peterborough in Septemnber. A Festival of Faith will be held at Trent University on June 16-17-l8th, Miss Mignon Mayneord, registrar. Dr., Robert McClure, will speak on Feb. l3th at 7:30 p.m. at St. James United Church, Peterborough. After a welcome cup of coffee, Mrs. Gwen Walton introduced Rev. Donovan Brown, speaker for the after- noon session. Rev. Brown is chaplain of Peterborough Hospitals and spoke of the nature and place of faith in healing. He said in part, "As soon as you speak of faith in healing, you divide people into two camps -- on one hand, those who believe faith heal- ing is pure superstition, and showmanship, and on the other,' people who believe ilînesses can be cured by faith and sometimes cured by faith alone. The ideas of faith healing of both camps are not the right ones. What do we mean by faith? For some it is a label, nothing more than a badge of membership. For some thers, the credo, a blind, blind faith they have learned about through catechism. For others still, faith is keeping the rules. For some, a kind of mysterious something to be used when needed, "Have Faith". See what Jesus meant by faith when he said: "Do you believe in me?" He meant a simple and profound trust, ahl out without any reservations. Faith which answers God's loving. The "chicken soup" of a Jewish mother has ail kinds of healing qualities. t is a symbol of love, because it was made with love. In the same manner, behind an ail out faith is a loving God. Rev. Brown was thanked by Mrs. Earl Argue. Mrs. J. Morrow invited the Pnesby- terial to meet at St. Andrew's next year. Everyone enjoyed an hour of fellowship and a deliciousý dinner served by the ladies of Mark St. United Church. The evening session started with a sing-song and the Junior Choir had special music which delighted every- one. The Worship service by Donwood U.C.W. was an introduction to the topic of the evening talk by Mr. David Halîman, Staff Co-ordinator for the International Year of the Child.' Here are a few of bis remarks: The right of the child was adopted by the United Nations, but we do not meet the needs of our children. We have to start looking in our own backyands, before looking in the world, and to do so, we have to look first into our own childhood. We have to become more aware of children, celebrate, sing, play with them. We have to receive what children have to give, we can learn s0 much from them. We have to take them seriously and listen to their needs. Let them tell how they see us, as people, congregations, how they see the world. The gifts that children have to donate are overwhelming, we need them. Children throughout the world too are our concern. One thing we-can do to improve the lives of children is to reduce unemployment for children suffer as much as adults when the breadwinner is out of work. Child abuse is also a big problem and a problem we can do something about if we are aware of it in our neighborhood. Emotional abuse can be prevented and it is up to us to do so. United Church congregations should support families in need, reach out, love them. Parents who abuse children are usual- ly abused themselves. We as Christians have to minister to familles who have handicap- ped childnen. If a family is helped at the birth of a handicapped child, they can grow to be a loving, close family and the child is happy.
