DUNGANNON UNITED CHURCH For the first Sunday in Advent Rev. C. G. Westhav- er spoke on the topic, "A Lamp Shining in . a Dark Place", in which he compar- ed the work of the church as it follows Christ's teachings to the light of a candle lighting the darkness. The children's story was entitled, "How we give a gift to Jesus" and was based on the saying of Jesus, "If we do it unto the least of these, ye do it unto me". The choir sang the an- them, "Shepherds in the Fields Abiding" led by the organist, Mrs. Jean Elliott. This anthem is a hymn or carol from the new Hymn Book, which contains, along with the old and familiar, a number of the newer carols. Carols are being sung this year on each of the four Sundays of the Advent seas- on. The fall and winter schedule of Sunday services began on Sunday with Dun- gannon reverting to the 11.00 a.m. hour and the service at Nile being at 1.00 p.m. The Sunday Schools conformed to the new time. The formation of a Tyro group for boys is under consideration. Tyro was dev- eloped as a church centred program for junior boys (ages 9-11) in 1950. It is still sponsored by the United and other churches, although in many United Churches it has been superceded by Scouts. The minister would like to know how many parents and - boys are interested in a local group. The age range is, somewhat elastic (not.young- er than 9 but older than 11 may be admitted). The Explorer Group meets on Tuesday evening, also the Music Committee at a later hour. The Explorers have started their Christmas pro- ject of making -gifts for shutins. They are planning a Christmas Party for Decem-. ber 20th. ,The Willing Workers are accepting donations of good used clothing, . toys, games, foodstuffs and sundry items for their Christmas Tea and Bazaar on Saturday. They plan to use the proceeds for church improvements. The December meeting of the UCW • on Iecember 12 will take the form of a potluck dinner at the church with meat being supplied. There will be no exchange of gifts. Installation of L979 officers will be held. DUNGANNON CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP CHURCH The. Christian Fellowship Church had several renewal services over the weekend. The speaker, • Lester Kehl from Floradale, had a series of inspiring messages for those who attended. Friday evening the topic was, "Way's God Speaks to .Us" Saturday evening was Youth Night with the theme, "Jesus - Who He Really Is". Sunday Morning the series was continued with, "The Church -What is It?" and the final message in the evening was on "The Holy Spirit". The attendance was affected by poor weather conditions, but those, present were up- lifted by the inspiring words, and music was provided by local groups. It is hoped that weather and roads will be better next weekend when the Sunday School Christmas program will be presented on Sunday evening.
