Should YOU pre-arrange
your Funeral?
The wise head of every fam-
ily takes care to prepare a Will
and carry ample Life Insurance
with one unselfish motive in
.mind to assure his family of
security and peace of mind.
Doesn't it make sense then
that one should pre-arrange his
funeral and leave instructions as
to his wishes?
Generally speaking, should it not be YOUR responsibility
to arrange YOUR funeral? '
Any member of the Ontario Funeral Service Association
will sit down and discuss pre-arrangement with you without
obligation. Why leave this task to someone else?

C.G.I.T. news
Bonnie Harloff welcomed
the cubs, their leaders, Rev.
and Mrs. Morden, and other
guests, then opened the
Granton C.G.I.T. meeting by
leading in The Lord's
Prayer. Joanne Goos took
the roll call by. asking the
girls to complete the sen-
tence: "If I could give one
gift of myself right now to
my group, I would like to
give .a little more..."
After the business portion
of the meeting, Colleen
Malcolm assisted by
Margaret McGuffin did a
presentation on "water"
using as her main theme
"baptism."
The movie "The shopping
bag lady" was shown,
followed by a game led by

McRobert. A second film

Right Now," followed by

Church news
At the United Church Aev,
Elwood Morden conducted
the morning worship, and
entitled his sermon
"Grasping Life's Serpents."
This weird tale of a serpent
changing into a stick, will
give us a deeper un-
derstanding, and a Parable
for our time. Young Moses,
brought up as a Prince in
Pharaoh's household, knew
he was of Hebrew blood, and
when he slew the Egyptian,
and fled from the country, to
Milian, where he found love,
marriage, and security. God
chose him to lead the
children of Israel out of
Egypt, when Moses said,
they will not believe me, and
will say that God did not
appear unto me, So God
changed the rod in Moses
hand to a serpent, and told
hime to grasp it by the tail,
and it immediately became a
rod again. This was done by
God so that Moses could
prove that God had chosen
him to lead the Israelites out
of ggypt, The first thing we
have to do as Christians, said
Rev. Morden is to grasp the
tail of the serpent of doubt,
we inevitably have to ex-
perience doubt, even Jesus
doubted,, then there is the
serpent of fear, fear of
loneliness, failure, social
conflict, nuclear war, per-
fect love casts out fear.
At St. Thomas Anglican
Church the congregation
welcomed their new rector,
Rev. Gregg Smith and Mrs.
Smith, The sacrament of
Holy Communion was
celebrated, Rev. Smith being
the celebrant, assisted by
Miss Marion Herbert, who
read the scripture lesson. In
his communion message,
Rev. Smith spoke on the
Journey of the Israelites and
how we as Christians can
learn from it, how it effects
our faith, and how we can
apply it to our own lives,
At the Granton Com-
munity Bible Church, Mrs.
Art Postma, a graduate of .
Ontario Bible College, and
now a family counsellor at
Victoria Hospital London,
taught on "Our Holy
Calling" from Romans 1:1-7.
This passage teaches us that
we Christians like Paul, are
called to be set apart to live
The Gospel and to tell others
about God's desire to have us
turn to Jesus, as One who
paid for our sins, and the One
who gives us victory over sin
in our daily lives.

The Lucan-Biddulph
Branch of the Canadian
Cancer Society, in
cooperation with the Merton
branch, held their annual
cancer education meeting in

Keith Gay, medical con-
sultant, and Sister Judith,

The first to speak was Dr.
Gay, who explained how the
team functioned, In his
capacity as medical con-
sultant he would advise the
patients when changing from
curative to palliative care to
accept the result, but not to
give up the treatment, and to
be allowed to keep their
dignity and privacy.
