1 The (";iiuicli;m Slulcsmiin. Bowmanville. October 14. 11187 St. Paul's Holds Opportunity Sale WesleyviUe News by E. Barrowdough Jimmy's Girls Take First Place Title i\ (intended for last week) Audrey Shirk (right) and Alice Burgess are working behind one of the many tables holding bargains at the St. Paul's Opportunity Sale. The event was sponsored sponsored by the U.C.W. and it took place last Thursday at St. Paul's. Items from the bake table disappeared the most quickly. However, there was still a good supply of other merchandise when this photo was snapped. Bright sunshine took away a little of the chill from Sunday morning's introduction to cold weather for those who attended Worldwide Communion at Welcome and other places around the world. That weather remark applies only to the colder regions like Canada, for this service is held once a year wherever Christians are found.Rev. Sedgwick's sermon on the topic "Expendable" - a term heard so often in war time and expressed in many ways as, losing your life to save it, was a strong reminder of priorities. So much that is best in our lives can be kept only by giving it away. A grain of wheat hoarded and kept ever so carefully will die and that is the end. If it is sacrificed by putting it in the ground, it is renewed and given back many times. Jesus' life was given away and its purpose in being is living to-day. The children's story of the little boy who gave his blood, even when he thought he was giving all of it, to save a little girl because, he said, she was my friend, was a true sacrificial gift. Another member of Sunday School arrived for the first time on Sept. 27, Nathan Stripp joins the group to hear the morning story. The choir sang "Lord, have mersy on me" a very appropriate anthem for this special day. The offering was received by Arnold Thorndyke and Ron Brimacombe. Lovely fall flowers with sprays of bittersweet made the floral arrangement and Marion Bamsey greeted the congregation at the door. Rev. Sedgwick was assisted with serving communion by elders, Mary Kellogg, Babe Symons, Chris Beattie, Glen Thompson, Clarence Nichols, George Tufford, Lloyd Kellogg, John Groeneveld and Arnold Thorndyke. Mr. and Mrs. Elden Johnson of Redford, Michigan were visitors at church. They have been regular participants in Port Hope's house tour for many years and stay over for several days to do more research on their family who came to Port Hope in 1803. Runaway horses were a common sight in the days of buggies but rare in this time of speeding cars. A neighbour working in her garden on Saturday, looked up to see two blanketed race horses running full speed down the median of 401, with fast traffic on both sides and a police car attempting to catch them. The potential for a terrible accident should they cut into traffic was frightening. They were stopped before that happened. The owner thought they needed exercise after being in a van for 200 miles, so he took them out. The horses thought they needed it too, so took off. Mrs. George Tufford was taken to Peterborough hospital last week to keep an appointment made some time ago ana will not be home until tests are completed. Sponsored by "Jimmy's Flame Broiled," the following girls placed first for the season in their division, front row, left to right, Shelley Irvine, Pam Kelly, Ellen Coombes, Laura Somerscales, Lori Bentley, Tracy Van Hoof; back row, Gwen Somerscales assistant coach, Darla Kichko, Leeann Somerscales, Carrie Courneyea, Bobbi Ellis, Sara Bowers, Sheri Sandison, Julie St. Amano, Kelly Conley and coach Leigh Somerscales. Absent - Dawn Huycke. Thanks girls for a good season.
