[4 3 a -- £ ot District Churches } BCUGOG PASTORAL CHARGE Our Annual Congregational Meet- ings were very succesful, and the Re- ports very gratifying, Now that they are all over, we wonder why it is, that so few attend? It might pay the Church to spend more time on her preparations for these meetings, and not just blame the congregations for not attending. And yet, in the poli- tical realm, what a very small per- centage of citizens attend the meet- ings called for the election of Officers! And then when it is all over, what books could be written pro and con regarding what transpired! Not that we have heard any adverse criticism regarding what we did; but it is so easy for these meetings, both political and religious, to be domineered over by very few individuals. Only a very small percentage of the Russians be- long to the Communist Party, yet they rule that mighty nation. Here is hoping for a much larger percentage of representation at all political .and religious conventions. Many new faces will appear on our Church Boards. Four new Elders and four Stewards were elected from the 'Head', and one Indian Representative on each Board. We do not know definitely whether all elected will accept office, so we will withhold all names until a future date. There will be one Fi- nancial Statement for the Pastoral Charge, and we know that the picture will be sufficiently interesting to warrant giving our readers a general outline. The most outstanding news of the week, 13 the Meeting that took place at Prospect Church on Sunday after the Service. The time has come for us to do something at Prospect. A new heating plant is a MUST, and we need more room. We have a very fine group of children, {between 40 + and 60) and they must be taken into consideration. The Minister spoke about the great possibilities of estab- lishing ONE strong Protestant Church for that whole area. The Union on the Island has done wonders for the Church; and it was suggested that something similar could be accomp- lished in the Manchester-Prospect area. We could start with what we have, and utilize the present build- ings to the best advantage. We could all worship together as we are doin on the Island. A new Church coulc be created with a new name, and if deemed adviseable, a new building erected in time. The question that was left in the minds of the congre- gation, was whether as a congrega- tion, they. would be willing to enter such a union. If we can take one step at a time, we will eventually ar- rive, but we must make that first step before anything can happen. So in the very near future, a regular Congregational Meeting will be held in the Prospect Church, to consider the possibilities of entering a union with other United Churches in the area, for the creating of a strong Protestant Church. School, PORT PERRY, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, JANUARY 17th, 105717 In spite of the cold weather, our congregations at all three Churches were very good. The Island Church was about three-quarter full.
