ENTERPRISE E S S COLBORNE CHRONICLE SUCCESSOR TO The Colborne Express (Established 1866) The Colborne Enterprise (Established 1886) Thursday, September 20th, 1962 . Bishop Wilkinson Will Officiate At Thanksgiving Service In Lakeport Mrs. J. W. Evely Hostess To Colborne W.I. $4.00 U.S.A. t - 7c per copy From an old newspaper clipping comes this note -- "The opening services of the new English Church in Lakeport were held on Sunday last, November 26th. Three services were held during the day, and were all well-attended, the church being well filled at each service." The date was 1889. Lakeport has changed since then, and it is doubtful if there are enough people in the community to fill either the Anglican or Presbyterian Church buildings. It is hoped that many friends will join the people of St. Peter's Anglican Church this Sunday for their Harvest Anniversary service at 3.00 p.m. when the Rt. Rev. F. H. Wilkinson, M.A., D.D., Bishop of Toronto will be the preacher. The Presbyterian Church will also hold anniversary ' services at 11.00 a.m. and 7.30 p.m. at SI. Paul's, i akeporl. Mrs. Ivan Flan- Kells coffee, Harnden, Stevens, ders will be the organist at all King- Day, Maskery Campbell, services in Lakeport in the true McKim, Branigan, Loucks, Mul-ecumenical spirit (church co-oper- drew Rushi Flanders and Rogers Thanks for the bounty of this vice, the white frontal for the altar, the work of Mrs. J. Muldrew, a parishioner, will be used. Recently the cross was dedicated in memdVy of Mr. James Crowe, being a gift of the family. A reception for all attending the service at 3.00 p.m. will take place at the home of Miss Enid Rogers. The men of the parish, under the direction of Mr. James Palmer, former People's Warden, cleaned the church, which has 'been officially closed since last fall. The congregation now worship at Trinity Church, Colborne. From the past records the names of many families and individuals connected with St. Peter's appear: Matthews, Bishop, Cracknell, Palmer, Clowes, Pad-gington, Brown, CJarke, McGlennon, Winn, .Batty, Hardy, Fagg, Pe'.tihone \Tf Intosh,,Warner, ation). The choir of St. Paul' Anglican Church, Brighton, and Trinity Anglican Church, Colborne, will assist in singing evening prayer at 3.00 p.m. at St. Peter's Church. Among the admirable features of St. Peter's Church is its fine stained-glass window over the altar. It was installed after the opening in 1889 and is made by a special type of glass-etching process which has insured the permanence of fhe blue colours. The window was damaged in 1961 and was repaired by Wm. Brifbett of Toronto. Its inscription read "To the Glory of God and in memory of John Davidson, Pastor of this Parish, 1888 to 1892". Bishop Wilkinson will re-dedicate the window on Sunday. The pulpit was a gift of the Matthews family in 1910 in memory of their mother. For this anniversary ser- 's harvest will be joined with many people's heartfelt gratitude for 'the faithful who built St Peter's Church, Lakeport, seventy-three years ago.
