They had a farm near Galt where they specialized in growing asparagus. In 1990 they went as volunteer missionaries to Malawi, Africa, to oversee the Domasi Agricultural Extension program where David encourages small scale farming including poultry, vegetable'and fish farming. They. showed slides of their work and the area where they lived and were able to answer many questions from the interested audience. The theme of Partnership in Mis- sion was carried on for this meeting that had been introduced at the synodical in mid April. Following a salad supper, served by the Lucknow ladies, Erlma Hal- denby, Presbyterial president, wel- comed everyone and opened the meeting with the call to worship and prayer. The worship service was presented by Brussels with Helen Elliott giving the scripture and the meditation on the theme. She said the work of missions has changed from the time missionaries were sent out and we sent money to support them. Now there is more sharing as we join with churches in other countries in a common pur- pose. Partnership requires equality, hard work, caring, and the use of the gifts God has given us. Isobel Gibson led in prayer. • Mary Wray and Joan MacKay, of Ripley, led the In Memoriam ser- vite remembering former members who have passed away: Audrey Boron, of Kincardine, was presented with an honorary mem- bership certificate by Barbara Bur- ton, in recognition of her faithful- ness.
