Elwood B. Morden in charge and Doug Barr presiding at the organ. The church was decorated beautifully in keeping with Harvest - Thanksgiving theme. The Bryanston -Bethel Folk Choir under the leadership of U. Bewalda and George McRoberts rendered special music with a message for all. The guest speaker was the Rev. Charles J. Scott, Chaplain . of the London Psychiatfic Hospital, who took as his theme "Spiritual Renewal", based on Psalm 103. The message of this Psalm is what our troubled world needs to -day, as we renew our pact with God. "To make this renewal said Mr. Scott, "we must find ourselves first." We do not do this by doctors' medications, but by daily seeking God's will in Bible reading and prayer and acting upon His will as it is revealed to us. We too, need to look within our own family structures and ask ourselves if we are the parents and children God intended us to be! Are we a parent a child can remember with pride? Are there any grudges our family bear that are unresolved and need talking out. A light lunch and a time of fellowship was enjoyed in the Church Hall. - The anniversary celebrations will continue on Wednesday evening October 21 from 5-8 p.m. when a turkey buffet will be served.
