PORT PERRY SHODOKAI JUDO CLUB to success, with co-operation and harmony! Nestleton Presbyterian News On Feb. 10, Rev. Wm. Fairley continued with a lesson for the S. School on the book of Joshua - a time of making decisions. "Choose this day whom you will serve."' Shirley Scott played the hymns and Dorothy Lee taught the S.S. A service of acceptance and gratitude for the work of Mamie Magill in re - finishing a pulpit, donated in memory of the late Walter Magill, was led by Rev. Fairley. Responsive Psalm was No. 8 and scripture readings were from II Kings & Mark 9. In the sermon, optimistic or negative views as we meet the challenges of life, starting with our formative years through adolescence to adult are guided by the values taught us in the Bible. On a bright wintery morning the congregation of Nestleton Presbyterian Church met on Feb. 17 at 11 a.m. Rev. Wm. Fairley in the pulpit with Joyce Taylor play- ing the piano. D. Lee taught the S. School pupils. Responsive reading of Psalm No. 25 was followed by Script. from Genesis 9 and Matthew II. The book of the Bible for the S. School was Judges - the story of the tribes when they lived in the promised land. Rev. W. Fairley's sermon was on the theme of Hope - and how it is sometimes real hope - sometimes wishful thinking. Our trust in divine guidance and obe- Jr dience of our laws should be foremost in our thoughts as we folfow the pilgrimage of Christ, to the Cross at Easter.
