Fern MacDonald gave the devotions, reading the scripture from Deuteronomy 11, and a meditation, the Golden Hills. She told how God leads us through the hills and valleys and sometimes when we can't see our way ahead God will help us to keep on keeping on if we trust Him to lead us. Joanne Vanderveen sang two solos, "He" and "Make Me a Chan- nel of Your Peace", which went well with the theme of the meeting. Special speaker was Rev. Linda Hill of the Anglican Church, who gave a presentation on the Fellow- ship of the Least Coin. She mar- velled at how well her subject coin- cided with our theme of peace and remembrance as that is what the FLC represents. It is a movement of prayer for peace, justice and recon- ciliation observed in 70 different countries. She illustrated with slides showing many people and places where women donate a penny for every prayer. they make for peace. Last year a total of 230,000 was collected and distributed for -disaster relief, education, health care programs and ministries of mercy on every continent. Some of the suggestions for prayer were Haiti, Guatemala, Mexico, eating disor- ders, violence on T.V., women and aids, children of Chernobyl, sexual harassment and the Amazon Rain Least Coin Forest. She closed by leading us in a song, assisted by Donalda Moffat, which told about the fellowship of the least coin. The rollcall was answered by everyone giving a verse or poem oil remembrance.
