Hearn said the meeting went well with more than 60 Couples lead UC service The Couples' club mem- bers were in charge of the Sunday morning service at Lucan United Church. The club had invited the "Living Water Gospel Singers" group to take the service. This group, including Allen Melanson, Lucan, Rob McLaughlin, pianist, Rob McIntosh, Norm Sawlor and John O'Brian, guitarist, has travelled from coast to coast and into the United States singing their gospel music, some songs written by members of the group. The congregation was asked to sing along in several num- bers. The songs were in- terspersed with words of inspiration by each member. It was truly a wonderful experience. Ed. Melanson opened the service and made the few necessary announcements. A "love" offering was received to assist the group with their travelling ex- penses. A "minute talk" was given by Mabel Froats touching on the need for our con- tributions to the World Development and Relief Fund to help in various places in a needy world. The flowers in the Sanc- tuary were from the funeral of the late Miss Ethel Marshall and the prayers of the congregation are ex- tended to her loved ones. They were distributed to shut-ins during the af- ternoon. Next Sunday, July 19, the service will be taken by the I Committee of Stewards and the following Sunday, the 26th, the Clandeboye Sunday School will lead in worship. Following the service, members of the U.C.W. and the committee of Stewards met to confirm plans for painting the Northex and the Christine Education wing.
