Following the noon time meal there was a time of fellowship, baseball, horseshoes, and other games for the children. This was all brought about by the cooperation of each person involved in the preparation. The evening service brought "The Gauger Brass" family in concert to the thcurch for their fourth concert, in the past five years. The family consists of father, mother, six boys and a girl. Each one is an artist in his own right. The boys play several instruments, as well as the father./David, the eldest boy, graduated from Wheaton college, and will continue his studies in music, majoring in the cornet. The service was not all music, but worship of the saviour, Jesus Christ. There were testimonies by the Gaugers, telling of His leading in their lives as they go across country singing for their Lord. The entire day was a blessing to many people and new folks came to fellowship. It is hoped that many were spiritually blessed in this day of ministry. Pastor Gerald Robertson planned for this day some time ago, because of the success enjoyed one year ago with a similar full day service.
