l ( i Z 10 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanvillc, December 19,1984 Wesley ville There was a happy party at Canton Hall on Saturday afternoon, Dec. 8, when Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Thorndyke entertained a group of people from the access homes of Cobourg and Port Hope. Some were present from both places. About 30 enjoyed the program provided by magician Charisma, and John Groeneveld with music. John's daughter Elizabeth was along with her dad and she with others assisted the magician with his mysterious performances. Trays of delicious delicious food was supplied to the guests. Group two of Welcome U.C.W. held their Christmas meeting at the church on Wednesday, Dec. 12. Before gathering for the meeting, 18 ladies and five men of the , families had their noon meal together at the Legion in Port Hope. Most of the men left for bowling while the ladies, well prepared for the business of the day, went to the church. Mrs. Helen Dinner, leader of her group for the month was in charge of the devotions and program which began with the reading of an appropriate poem by Jean Payne. A table was prepared to receive the white gifts with a basket decorated with greenery and a red bow, standing by a creche and flanked by burning candles. The ladies placed their gifts in the basket while June Nichols played Christmas Christmas music. Dora Nichols read the meditation. The gifts of money were dedicated by Helen and will be sent to the Fred Victor Mission which this unit has done for many years. The collection was $47. and made up to $50 from funds. A letter from the mission tells of great need this winter. June was organist for the rest of, the meeting and the scripture story of the revelation to Mary was read by Kay Thorndyke from a modern version. The four group members presented presented a very fine story of Mary's life, with suggestions of emotional times she must have spent at the various stages of Jesus' life. The regular collection was received received by Kay and dedicated by Helen. Following the program the business was conducted by the leader, Christine Wilson conducted conducted ; the business when ggporta were heard showing jgariv^uccess of recent happen- including the bazaar and visite( lnnual 6 r0U P two Christ- sister concert.

Everyone was I pleased to have Mrs. Forgan ' of Scotland present for the meeting. She arrived a short time ago to spend the winter with daughter Christine Wilson. She was accompanied on the flight here by her other daughter who has returned to Scotland. It was a foggy drive to Welcome Church on Sunday morning, Dec. 16 but the sun had overpowered most of the fog by the services and Lloyd Kellogg gave the call to worship worship and the third Advent ceremony was in charge of Wayne and Brenda Ough and their four daughters, Alicia, Kerri and Michelle took part in the devotions as Nicole lit the three candles, the last for Peace. The parents did their part to make this a beautiful family service which closed with prayer in unison. Rev. Gordon Rutherford illustrated the need for God's guidance by having one of the children at story time, put on a blindfold and try to walk among the others. She did walk into one, then he took her hand to guide on a path between between the others. The choir's anthem was "Unto us a child is born," The sermon for the morning was on the life of Joseph and his complete trust in ,God in his acceptance of Mary. He was a man of compassion compassion but little is known of him for there is no record after the occasion of Jesus remaining at the temple with the teachers. The offering was received by Ron Brimacombe and Carroll Nichols. Two bright poinsettia plants were in the church in memory of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Naherniak and Mr. and Mrs. Milton Brimacombe, parents of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Woodruff. The ice storm of last Friday night caused lots of trouble for people who had to be on the roads. But on Saturday morning morning when the sun shone brightly, brightly, no picture of a fairyland scene could be as beautiful as the trees, whirls and every object covered with ice. It is sometimes called a pre-death beauty, as the wonder of the fall colours, the supposed song of the swan before it dies, and the time when the ice begins to melt is the moment of its most dazzling beauty. The sun catches the first drops as they fall, and the whole landscape glitters. It is a brief glory. A service was held at Welcome United Church on Sunday evening, Dec. 16th to bring to a close the special events planned by the committee committee for this sesquicenten- nial year. The pulpits were removed to the side to make room for the choirs, and the room was made cheerful by the flickering light of candles set in red and green glass containers on the window sills. The call to worship was given by Rev. Gordon Rutherford, dressed as Rev. Eynon might have been at the founding of the church and speaking in an accent which might have been used by him. He said he was glad to be back at Guideboard and told that often when riding from Cobourg he would ponder whether the work started started here would cease or continue continue for generations. The evening of worship and song by the well filled church was . proof his fears were groundless. groundless. Seats were placed in front of the choir loft for the Juniors. Throughout the evening evening of Bible readings and the minister's message, the audience joined with the choir in singing many old favourites. favourites. The Junior choir sang "Gloria Deo", and "Mary had a Baby." Hymns and carols by the seniors were: Christmas Jubilate; While my Sheep; All my Heart This Night Rejoices; Rejoices; Lo, How a Rose; First Christmas Morn; Echo Carol and a wonderful finale by the two choirs of over 30 voices, "Bethlehem." The Welcome strings provided the music for "Circuit Ridin' Preacher. Just a Closer Walk with God and Pass Me Not Oh Gentle Saviour." The strings accompanied accompanied themselves as they sang "Star of the East." Without Without once dropping his assumed accent, Rev. Rutherford announced that an old and tried friend, Dr. Mac Freeman Freeman had travelled far with his wife to be here for the night, in spite of increased travelling expenses, oats had jumped 10 cents a bus. His cornet solos of several carols, accompanied by Morley Bickle of Canton were much appreciated. Organists for the evening were Mrs. H. Reeve and Mrs. Barbara Croft, and leader for both choirs was John Groeneveld. Groeneveld. Mr. Tom Wilson expressed appreciation to all who had contributed to the year's programs programs with a special mention of the church Secretary Ruth Woodruff who did so much extra work cheerfully. Letters received during the year included one from Rev. Ian Munroe in Alberta who said he had only happy memories of the Welcome charge. Another from Mrs. Miller, the former Elsie Moon, reminiscing about several ministers over the years. One was Manson Doyle who bicycled to church as a summer supply from the Cobourg Road. Before the days of paving, he wrapped his pulpit dress in a newspaper, newspaper, and arriving early, changed his clothes in the driving shed. At the close of the service he wailed for the congregation to go, and reversed reversed the change. It was another night of joyful, happy singing and ended with lea, coffee, and Christmas goodies, and a visit with friends from other churches on the charge.
