The open-air service will take place on the grounds of Colborne Central School and will feature ,participation by several former township men who have joined •the ministry. • Church conunittee chairman Bob Jewell said the service will provide a fitting con- clusion to the Sesquicentennial celebrations.

John Wood of Goderich and Rev. Bob Roberts of Nile. Religion played an important role in the development of the township and Jewell noted that at one time there was 10 or 12 churches scattered throughout the township. Now, Beruniller United Church is the only one located within the township ,boundaries. Nile United Church is located on the boundary line of Colborne, Ashfield and West Wawanosh Townships. The Colborne Choir will be singing at the church; service;,and thp, group has been, , rehearsing- in earnest in preparation for the service. They will also make. air pearances at other church services in the • area after the township,celebrations. Four young Colborne Township cOuples will take up the offering at the service and ° the proceeds will be donated -to Family and Children's Services and to help handicap- ped children.
