-Haileyburian-Cobalt Post ESTABLISHED 1904 Vol by, No. 11 : Haileybury, Ontario, Thursday, May 18, 1961 5c. CORY "Living This Year With God" Theme at Presbytery Meet Mrs. A. J. Gibbs, President of _Toronto Conference Woman's As- sociation of the United Church, spoke on this theme at the annual meeting of Temiskaming Presby- tery Woman's Association of the United Church of Canada in Swas- tika Church, May 3rd, when 87 delegates from Temagami in the south to Bourlamaque in the east, gathered to learn more of the plans for the New organization for wo- men in 1962. and how it will effect the whole program of the church. Mrs. Geo. Honer, Kirkland Lake, led an inspiring devotional period choosing as her theme, the DOORS -- open to opportunity, but also a means to.get away from reality. The DOOR isa challenge to all who use it as it was intended, a means of going into something new. Mrs..MacDonald of Kirkiand Lake was organist for the whole day. Rev. Norman Thomas and the Swastika Elders conducted the Holy Communion service which was followed by the address by Mrs. A. J. Gibbs. As women, we must realize that this year is so very important in the life and out- look of. the whole church, that it shall be a time of total committ- ment of ourselves in time, talent, and material wealth. To be pre- pared we must LISTEN--carefully and with an open mind; STUDY --to analyse the whole program and how it will effect us; PRAY --for guidance to the new oppor- fey tunity ahead for each one. She said there seems to be a common aS disease which is. spreading - over 'the Christian Church today called "WHAT's IN IT FOR ME?' Have you caught this dread disease, or are you immune to its wrath? Where is Christianity? Is it at the typewriter in the den, in the neigh- bour's yard (helping in a situa- tion) or on the busy street. Can these three worlds come together? We should be graced with a spir- itual naturalism. She stated the objective of the new organization and what she hoped would be the highlight of each local next year, would be the number of women brought to Christ .... not the amount of money raised, or the achievements in other ways. 2 Mrs. C. C. Sinclair, Noranda, (Literature Sect'y) gave a res- ume of books on display and helps for Bible study -- "Greater Under- standing of the Bible', "'Let the Bible Speak", 'Notes on Bible Reading'"', Prayers for three to eight year olds; Visitors packets; Citizenship materials.
