Huron Chapel burns
'mortgage' 5 years early
Huron Chapel was probably the
only place where a fire was lit on a
sultry Sunday last week. The
congregation rejoiced in its light
ing, nonetheless, for it consumed
the loan agreement with the
Canada East District of the Mis
sionary Church, which signified
therepaymentin full of $20,000
borrowed five years ago in order to
purchase a parsonage. The loan
was discharged five years ahead of
schedule.
Taking part in the ceremony
were the two oldest members of the
congregation, Douglas Campbell
and Viola Raithby. Kim Baan
represented the young people of
the church and David Rolston, one
of the original founders, lit the
flame. Pastor James Carne an
nounced that, co-incidental with
the retirement of all debt, a gift of
$100 had been received that would
establish a building fund designed
to help finance future church
expansion needed to accommodate
a growing Sunday school.
Huron Chapel was glad to
welcome back as guest speaker for
its 16th anniversary celebrations,
the Rev. Ross Nicholls, former
pastor of the Goderich Free
Methodist Church, who was in
strumental in the establishing of
this former interdenominational
church in 1971. In 1980 Huron
Chapel united with the Missionary
Church of Canada. The Graham
Sisters, a ladies trio from Hills-
burgh, Ont., were also enthusias
tically received, having ministered
in the anniversary services of a
year ago. Pastor Carne reported
that nineteen children had attend
ed Trail Of The Pines Missionary
Camp, at Stayner, Ont., the
previous week, and all had had a
wonderful time.
