Emerson and Phyllis Rodger of Conc. 5, East Wawanosh were the guests of honour at an Open House in Auburn Community Hall where family and friends came to congrat- ulate them on 60 years of marriage. The Rodgers were united in mar- riage on Dec. 15 by Rev. Mortimer at the residence of the brides par- ents, Robert and Mary (McClinton) Taylor on Conc. 2, East Wawanosh.

Pastor Carne's message was "Hazards of Heresy" with scripture from Acts 4:1-22. "What do you know for sure?" he asked. Many shoot down Christianity but they have nothing to take its place. The Sadducees had a bias. They did not believe in the resurrection of the dead. Peter and John had living proof of Christ's resurrection.

Council agreed. Building permits were issued to Ian Scott, Lot 37, Conc. 5, barn addition and James Charles, Part Lot 42, Conc. 14, storage building.

The apostles too were stubborn but they had living proof of their beliefs. Pastor Came said the Sadducees were bypassing the fact of the power of a risen Christ but the rest of the people were praising God. He said the skeptics will be left behind when those who have accepted Christ will behold Him. Are you ready to see Christ face to face?
