Rex Norman of Campbellford conducted the service in the absence of Rev. Gordon Rutherford who is attending conference at Belleville. Belleville. The music was in charge of the junior choir who sang as their anthem, "His Love is all Around." Rev. Norman's story for the children told them how a mother's love protects her children even when they feel they are tied to her apron strings too long. Although this was one of the Sundays, the Sunday school remained for the church service, service, Mrs. Thompson's class of girls each potted a growing plant provided by their teacher, for their mothers. Rev. Norman's sermon used readings concerning Bible truths teaching, and the story of John the Baptist to show how the home provides a wonderful opportunity for developing character in children and in adults too. In this day of much freedom without enough responsibility, the Christian family provides the most stability. Lovely daffodils, narcissi and forsythia forsythia provided a spot of sunshine sunshine for a jdat'k day. The offering was received by Glen Thompson, Cliff Brice, Bill Beckett and Allin Osborne. Rev.
