After enjoy- ing a lovely lunch of cake, ice cream and tea, Thelma Wright opened the meeting with a poem "Just for Today" and ex- tended a welcome to all, espe- cially to our guest, Minnie Cry- derman from Sutton, who is visiting Marliese Hassler. The worship was led by Au- drey Wright, taking as her Scripture II Corinthians 4: verses 1 and 2.
