We then sang "Spirit of the Living God" with Miss M. E. L. Osborne at the piano. Mrs. Jean McKnight gathered the offering. Joan then read a poem "I didn't Take Time to Pray." This poem reminds, us of the word spoken by Jesus in Matthew 7: 7 - 9. She left us with this closing thought that may we, as we go about our busy daily tasks, remember, that God is always with us waiting patiently for us to Ask, Seek ana Knock so that He can truly guide us and keep us in His care. We then sang "All The Way My Saviour Leads Me." We had as our guest speaker Mrs. Euna Killens, a former president of Oshawa Presbytery, Presbytery, who belongs to Hampton U.C.W.

She mentioned the important part the youth of our church took, in their own way, throughout the meetings. They conducted one of the worship services, which gives us faith and confidence confidence in our future church.

Some of the more than Letter to Editor 5 Chapel St,, Bowmanville, Ontario, June 20,1983. Mr. John M. James, Editor, The Canadian Statesman, Statesman, Dear John; Let me add two voices on behalf of my wife and myself, regarding the official changing changing of the name of this Town, where we live, back to Bowmanville, Bowmanville, from "The Town of Newcastle". We like the village of Newcastle Newcastle and mean no offence to them in this regard. Historically, there may no doubt be a relationship, but surely, present day business must surely override any of the Historic value. But the confusion which has existed and still exists with this set-up, is just beyond any present day reasoning. One nas to but read the Newcastle-Bowmanville items in the Oshawa paper to understand the foolishness of it all. Since most of the early settlers in this area were of Anglo-Saxon descent, and emigrated from the southern part of England, why not change the official name of this Region - From - The Town of Newcastle To The Town of Devon or, The Town of Somerset Somerset or could "The Town of Darlington" be a consideration. consideration. Let us first find out an estimate of the cost of such a change, and then let a poll be taken on it. Thanks, John, for bringing this subject up. It was surely a very worthy subject to discuss. discuss. Good luck. Sincerely, Walton G. Pascoe 80 visitors in attendance are shown here as they enjoy dessert. Robert Warren, was chosen as the Seventh Bowmanville Cub of the Year during last Wednesday's banquet. • Leasing • Sales • Service • Body shop • Rentals iincluding campersl VW Rabbit VW Convertible VW Diesel VWJetta VWScIrocco VW Window Van VW Campmoblle VW Vanaaon Bus Audi 4000 Audl4000S Audi Coupe Audi 5000S Audi Turbo Audi Diesel Audi Quattro VW& Used Cars IWj W A R N I N Cn ' This advertisemen t could make you dissatisfied with VV rAlilN I IN your current homeowners insurance policy!
