Mennonite Central Committee. The relief kit contained bath
soap, laundry detergent, toothpaste,' toothbrushes, bath

THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, MAY 14, 2003. PAGE 27.
Choir distributes
In celebration of Christian Family
Sunday, the members of the Melville
Presbyterian junior choir spread out
among the congregation and
distributed long-stemmed carnations
to all mothers before the beginning
of the morning service. Later they
also sang the anthems, My Lord
What a Morning, and Pass it Along,
as previously performed at
Anthemfest, with Mary Douma
accompanying them.
The children’s story was a
discussion leading from the flowers
at the front of the church to funerals
and to the relationships of families
and how people are thankful for their
families. Margaret Work shared her
family tree with the children and
showed them an heirloom watch.
The flowers at the front of the
church were in memory of Leila
Johnston and Dorothy McCauley.
Scripture reading of Acts 4: 11-12;
1 John 3: J6 - 24; and John 10: 7 - 18
was assisted by Bill King.
The topic of Rev. Cathrine
Campbell’s sermon was Voices.
There are the louder voices heard
every day and then there are inner
voices that are heard in people’s
minds. These are voices of mothers
from childhood, and of loved ones
no longer here us.
From the proverbs there are voices
of wisdom, and the words of the 23rd
Psalm bring strength and comfort in
affliction.
Unfailingly people listen for the
voice of Jesus and find it in
commandment that they love
another as He has loved them.
Collection was taken up by
King, Maurice Douma,
Schimanski and Doug McArter.
