Mrs. Anderson announced the date, March 2, of the World Day of Prayer, to be held in the Anglican Church at 2 p.m. The schedules for the year were distributed and a few worship aids suggested. Beginning in June a study of hymn writers will com mence. Mrs. Glenn Coultes commenced the worship service with “Let us bow before the Lord, our maker”, using the theme “Forgiveness”. A scripture passage, “Forgiveness” was read responsively. From a newspaper item she read “There are many meanings to forgiveness. Equally, many depths. Often a great inner struggle precedes for giving.” In the related report, a baby had lost her life due to a drunken driver’s stupidity. He, however, was forgiven by the parents. For giveness reconciles the irreconcil able. The readier we are to forgive, the less we are called on to forgive. Forgiveness is truly a saving grace. The hymn “Just as I am”, was sung. Prayer concluded the wor ship period. Mrs. James Hunter chose “Christian Love” for the Bible Study, using a portion from the sermon on the Mount as her reference. She stated four words for “Love”. “A gape” means good will to all men. All Christian love must be remedial. Only when Christ lives in our hearts can we pray for an enemy. Above all things love with intensity and strength. Mrs. Sarah Anderson lead the Mission Study by reviewing the various designs portrayed on the cover of the special Mandate, Canada’s Cultural Mosaic. She continued by stating a number of industries which employ Japanese Canadians including lumbering and fishing. Ways in which the former W.M. S. aided these npnnU were given. The Lord’s Prayer and one of the U.C.W. concluded the study. A social period and lunch followed. Dough Girls hold meeting By Julie Elston The first meeting of the Belgrave Breadventure Club started on Mon day, January 29 with nine members present. The meeting was held in the W.I. Hall, Belgrave. The club started their meeting off with the 4H pledge. The meeting went smoothly after every one introduced themselves to the rest of the Club. The Club then discussed the Basic Ingredients of Bread. They then went to the kitchen and prepared two small batches of white bread. They were delicious. They also learned how to knead bread dough. The club also chose: President, Jennifer Elston; Vice-president, Carol Hopper; Secretary-treasurer, Margie Gordon; Press Reporter, Julie Elston. They later chose a name for the club. Out of five choices they chose The Dough Girls (it suited because the club had only girls attending it). The meeting closed with the 4H motto.
