the 4-H girls of the area for friends and parents Satur-
day morning at Grand Bend United Church.
Girls serve brunch
The twelve Grand Bend and
area 4-H club girls served an
international brunch to about
50 parents and friends Satur-
day in the basement of Grand
.Bend United Church.
The girls were dressed in
costumes representing other
countries. Tables were
decorated with Irish, Mexiean
and chinese decorations.
They served food made from
recipes from other countries
and they explained the origin
of each dish.
Womens' Institute director
was Janice Pickett and 4-H
member Christina
Boogemans assisted in the
project. Special guests were
the Rev. Harley Moore and
Elaine Moore.
Timing was good
Ralph Ferguson, MP,
Lambton Middlesex was in
Grand Bend Saturday to see
the new harbour building and
to witness a fishing boat stuck
on the outside sand bar in the
harbour.
He met with members of
the harbour committee. .
"Your timing was right on,
Ralph", commented chair-
man Tom Lawson.
Ferguson said he would be
in touch with Small Craft Har-
bours, Monday, to check on
the study for the basin and to
find out more about a propos-
ed machine which might be
installed permanently in the
river mouth to take out sand
and deposit it were needed in
beach areas.
He. said that obviously the
harbour would need dredging
in the near future before such
a machine could be put into
operation. He said that the
machine could be. operated
from the new, building.
Based on the volume of fish
at dockside during the winter,
he felt that the need was great
enough for the federal
government to pay for the
largest share of dredging.
Lawson said that the com-
mittee was behind any pro-
jects to improve the harbour
"100 percent".

ews from the churches
Rev. John Campbell's ser-
mon topic Sunday morning at
Church of God, was "More
trouble: falsely accused in
prison," with scripture from
Genesis, Chapters 39-40. Rev.
Campbell spoke about how
Joseph coped with things that
happened to him. When in
trouble, helping somebody
else helps yourself.
The music special was a
solo by Marian Steckle "The
longer •I serve Him."
The Mountaineers club inet
Wednesday at the church, and
the first dove award was
presented.
About 25 from the Church of
God attended a pot luck sup-
per, Saturday night, in Lon-
don at Church of God, to
celebrate Rev Edwin •Wat-
tam's 75th birthday.
Anglican church news
On the first Sunday after
Easter, Rev. Jim Sutton
spoke about the gospel of,
John, chapter 20:19.31. This
gospel told about Jesus ap-
pearing in the room with the
disciples. Thomas was not
present at that time and was
not convinced that it could
have been Jesus without see-
ing for himself.
Rev. Sutton feels there are
non -believers today. Some
people cannot accept the
spirit of Jesus being alive to-
day when there is so much
evidence of hatred, suffering
and tragedy in the world. In
'the gospel of John, Jesus said
"Blessed are those who have
not seen, but believe." Today
the true believers are raised
up and become -"truly" one of
His people.
Coffee hour hostess was
Mrs. Blanche Morrice.
Eleven members were pre-
sent at the A.C.W. group
meeting held last Thursday in
the Parish Hall.
Reta Martin, the Convener,
opened with a thoughtful
reading about "A smile."
Preparations were made
for the Easter ecumenical
that was held at St. John's
church last Thursday .
evening.
United .ehurch
"Presence and Peau" w,:s
the sermon topic by Rev. 11.
Moore, Sunday morning at
the United church. He talked
about Jesus' disciples follow-
ing the crucifixion and resur-
rection. The disciples faced
an unknown future with fear
and terror, their hopes dash-
ed and dreams shattered.
Jesus said, "Peace be with
you." Jesus, through His
presence is a gift of peace.
Choir anthems were "i love
my King," and hymn 489.
"Father Most Holy."
For the children, Rev.
Moore told them a 'Crab
Story'. The fishes noticed that
crabs walk sideways and
tried to teachthem to walk
straight. The moral - it is no
good walking straight through
the week and sideways on
Sunday.
The afternoon unit, Grand
Bend U.C.W. will meet Thurs-
day, April 14 at 1:30 at'the
church. The roll call "A
beautiful thing happened
today..."
Seven young people met
Sunday evening with Rev.
Moore in the Sunday School
rooms at the church. A. topic
discussed was parties, how
long they should last, and if
they should be chaperoned.

Bible coffee hour

Mrs. John Campbell's home
Tuesday afternoon. Mrs
Vera Brown opened with
prayer, and Millie Desjardine
led in a hymn sing.
Study time was on 1 Peter
2:9-10, with the lesson led by
Marie McKinnon.
In verse 9, Peter said;
believers have been chosen
by God Himself, you are holy
and pure, you are God's very
own.
Questions asked and
discussed were, What does it
mean to you personally that
you have received God's mer-
cy? How is receiving God's
mercy different from receiv-
ing His approval? We all have
God's mercy, but we do not all
have His approval.
The meeting next week will
be at Marie McKinnon's
home, April 19.
