Greeters were Fred Hakkers and John Uyl. Ushering was Karen Giousher, Ernie Phillips and Joanne MacDonald. Barb Bosman was organist. Tammy Root was in charge of the nursery. The Hymn of Praise was I’ve Got Peace Like a River. Corine Falconer treated the congregation to a solo. She sang All Things Bright and Beautiful and Behold. Barbara Hicks read the Gospel Lesson John 20: 19-31. Keith and Allison Dow led the congregation in the worship song. The Epistle Lesson was I John I: 1-2:2. The sermon was entitled A Joy to Feel, A Job to Do. Rev. Ernest Dow told of how the disciples’ fear after Jesus crucifixion turned to joy when they found out he was alive. Christian camps may be the first place for many in their walk of faith with Jesus, he said. Rev. Dow told the congregation that “Christian camping is a natural way to share the gospel subtly, but powerfully.” For campers having the opportunity to see Christ working in the counsellors and staff there can have an enormous impact. John Uyl, Joanne MacDonald, Ernie Phillips and Karen Giousher collected the offering. The service closed with the hymn He Lives and the choral response To God Be the Glory.
