Individual responsibility
theme of Auburn
“Individual Responsibility” was
the theme of the May meeting of
the Auburn United Church Women.
The convenors were Karen
Webster, Laura May Chamney,
Bernice Gross and Nancy Park.
The worship period was divided
to show how the use of our words,
our ways, our works, our money
and our life is each member's
individual responsibility. Rev. Paul
Ross spoke on Stewardship and,
using a questionnaire, gave a
detailed account of the Unified
Budget used by the United Church.
Using the Apostle Paul's teachings
in Corinthians, “The body is not
one member but many”, he
compared the budget as a
stewardship of reaching out. We
must look beyond our own four
walls - Christ calls us to minister to
all.
A duet “The King is Coming”
was sung by Nancy Park and Laura
May Chamney with Bernice Gross
at the piano. Elva Armstrong
convened for business and received
the various reports.

want to be identified with Christ.
Sometimes it is costly to be
identified and to let people know
who we are. Jesus was identified
with us. He became sin for us. If
Jesus took our punishment why
can't we stand up for Him. If we

Women’s Institute meeting
can't identify with Christ the world
will overtake us. Some people put
on a face as a Christian but let a
crisis come and they let us know
that they haven't the Spirit of
Christ. Our attitude betrays us.
If you don't stand for something
you will fall for anything. When
you give yourself wholly to the
Lord we will be given a new spirit
to stand for Christ.

The Women's Institute meeting
was held at the Community Hall on
Thursday evening, May 21 with 11
members and three guests present.
The meeting opened with the Ode,
Mary Stewart Collect and the
singing of O Canada with Marjorie
McDougall as pianist.
The president, Evelyn Flett, read
a poem “Open The Door To
Spring”. Mildred Lawlor, Public
Relation Officer, introduced the
Huron County Dairy Princess
Morgan Murray of RR 5, Seaforth.
She was crowned in Brussels in
September 1991. Miss Murray told
of what she had to do to get to be a
Dairy Princess and the things she
has done since. She told of her life
on the family dairy farm where she
and her sister Michelle helped her
parents do chores. One of her main
jobs was going to different schools
in Huron County and speaking to
the pupils on milk products and
making different kinds of
milkshakes and ice cream. She said
she really enjoyed that project.
She also showed a video of their
farm, cows, and pets to the
students. There was a question and
answer period and she passed out
pamphlets of recipes with good
ones to get calcium in to our bodies
and diets. She stated that she hopes
to go to the University of Western
Ontario after her reign is over.
Tena Empey thanked Miss
Murray for her splendid
presentation. The roll call was
“Name a Favourite Farm Memory”.
