GRAND BEND - Sunday was Rally Day at the Church of God • with Mr. Keith Lapsley, represent- ing Scripture Union Canada, as guest speaker. Millie Desjardine led the congregation in a hymn sing and the Sunday School children also performed a few numbers. Mr. Lapsley introduced his pup- pet, Isobel, and told a story about attending Sunday School, using several other puppets in the show, and illustrated the Bible story of the Good Samaritan with large hand drawn pictures. Following a pot -luck dinner in the church basement, Mrs. Lapsley presented the work of Scripture Un- ion in regards to the Holiday Clubs or Beach Ministries. The purpose of these clubs is to give children on holidays something constructive to do with their time, and to present the stories from the Bible through the use of quizzes, songs and books. The teachers are volunteers who work as a team, supported, where possible, by local churches. These clubs are held in several summer resorts such as Turkey Point on Lake Erie, Ipperwash and Southampton. In Grand Bend, 20 to 25 children met under a tree on the north beach each day for a week in August. They were taught by a Toronto family, Kevin and Sandra Wing, their children, two teenaged helpers, Mr. Lapsley from Guelph and Rev. Duke Vipperman (pastor of the An- glican Churches of Exeter and Grand Bend). The interest among the children was high, and the leaders can be commended for their faithful efforts j--�_ from GB churches with the children during a very hot week.
