on Nov. 3 with Norma Raynard in
charge of the program. Norma
opened with the poem Why I Wear
a Poppy and prayer.
Fern MacDonald gave the

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.

ders, violence on T.V., women and
aids, children of Chernobyl, sexual
harassment and the Amazon Rain
