Sunshine UCW Unit studies South American Indians As the date of the Sunshine Unit meeting of Blyth U.C.W. was Nov. 13. iust two davs after Remem­ brance Day, Viola Sanderson and co-leader Marj East, worship service leaders, made excellent use of a poem and an essay sequel to show the everlasting power of prayer in war time and afterwards. Guild thinks Remembrance Fourteen members of Melville Guild met in the church parlour for their regular November meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 18. Kathleen Semple, Thelma Car­ Blyth United Church told 'Jesus is King' Rev. Ken Bauman took as the theme of his sermon Sunday morning in Blyth United Church, “Jesus is King’’. He said that Christ is the king of peoples lives and people must remember that God will never abandon them. The parting words of a father to his son setting out to fight in World War 1 were the words of this well-known poem at that time. “Don’t forget to pray". Years later, that son gave his son and two soldier friends, back from the Korean war, the same advice, diff and Wilma Hemingway were in charge of devotions which opened with a poem called “The Weaver” by Kathleen. Wilma, with the Remembrance Day theme The Junior choir sang “I can never touch a rainbow, but God can and will.” Mr. Bauman concluded the series about the Lord’s prayer and Linda Meier was the children’s leader. Bill Howson and Gordon Carter were greeters. “Don’t forget to pray” as they were about to return to civilian life. They all had found prayer’s importance in everyday life. In the second study of Native Peoples, Myrtle Vodden described the environment of Mapuche Indians in Argentina where their numbers are smaller than in Chile in mind, read a mother’s plea for her son’s return entitled “The Unfilled Order.” John 14: 21-31 was read in unison. Wilmaled in prayer and the Message of Remembrance was given by Thelma Cardiff. Mem­ bers were exhorted to thank God for memory as they remember those who gave so much for us in past wars. During the business session Kathleen Semple and Evelyn Mair were appointed a nominating committee, a gift for the Nursing Home was discussed and Jean Ireland offered to buy poinsettias for the shut-ins. Isabel Adams enquired whether anyone had bias binding to trim jackets for African children. Refreshments were served by the programme commit­ tee. and their rights more liberal, thanks to the Argentina govern­ ment and world Native peoples. International concern is bringing positve results. As far as religion goes. Myrtle pointed out that because the Indians identify Chris- tianity only with white people, progress is slow and will not improve until the Church is willing togiveChristaMapucheface and a Mapuche culture. All were interested to hear a splendid financial report given by Evelyn Smith on the Harvest Bonanza, one of the two major money projects each year. Marjorie reported that the tra­ velling aprons have been account­ ed for, and anyone who has a i Blyth Christian Reformed Church HIGHWAY 4, BLYTH Rev.
