At the United Church the
Rev. Elwood Morden con-
ducted the service, and en-
titled his sermon 1'Hang In
there".
To illustrate his theme the
minister told the story of a
man named Neal who was a
shop manager for a company
whose workers were in a tur-
moil because of recent cut-
backs. He tried to do
something to improve the
situation for the workers and
the company, but became
discouraged and gave up -
when things did not improve.
Are you ever discouraged by
the way things are in your
life? Do you feel like giving
up? said Rev. Morden.
Farmers for example have
had a good reason to be dis-
couraged this year with all
the rain, bad crops and other
If you have
problems.
problems in your homes,
families, and jobs, don't give
up, don't lose heart "Hang in
there" and leave them in
God's hands.
There are three things that
can help these situations.
(1) The church: we all
need a church in which peo-
ple stand behind each other
caring and sharing, this is
what Christian Fellowship is
all about; (2) Prayer, In
we can place our
prayer
needs before God; (3)
Meditation, this involves a
time of complete relaxed
quiet, for not less than ten
minutes. These are some of
the ways that we can allow
God to help us "Hang in
there".
As the past week was
C.G.I.T. week the Granton
members assisted in the ser-
vice,by each girl giving a
reading pertaining to this

Church Paul Smith who is a
recent graduate of Huron
College Theological
Seminary London was In
charge of the service. Mr.
Smith is filling in for the rec-
tor the Rev. Greg Smith,
who is on holidays.
The lessons were read by
Mrs. Lois Herbert and Mrs.
Clarence Lewis: Mr. Smith
preached his sermon on the
1st Chapter of Haggai. This
described the remodelling of
the Temple after it was
destroyed, saying that "Man
does not live by bread alone,
but by the word of God,
which is the bread of life.
At the Community bible
Church, Pastor Fretz took
his message from Ezekiel
Chapters 4-7 and compared
God's discipline of the nation
of Israel with the discipline
of the church. While Israel
was disciplined for dis-
obedience to the Mosaic law,
the church is disciplined for
disobedience to the teaching
of the word, and for the
neglect to build up the body
of Christ, the Church.
Annual bazaar

p.m.
4-11 news
The fourth meeting of the
"Mean Machines" Granton
4H club "Ready" get set -
sew" was held at the home
of leader Mrs. Roger
Harmsworth on October 19.
Roll call was answered by
naming a garment where
you would apply interfacing
to provide stability? The
members then read from the
books about the different
kinds of interfacing and
looked at the illustrations.
Leaders Mrs. Harmworth
and• Mrs. St. Dennis
demonstrated on the sewing
machines how to apply the
interfacing. The group then
solved a Cryptogram puzzle.
Christine Jones was the
secretary for this meeting.
C.G.I.T. news
The C.G.I.T. met at the
home of their leader Mrs. G.
McRobert on Wednesday
evening to finish their quilt
for the bazaar. Joanne •Goos
presided over the meeting
and after leading the group
in the C.G.I.T. purpose, she
welcomed new member
Karen Hudson. Chris Currah
and Jennie Anderson were in
charge of the program, hav-
ing as their theme
"Thanksgiving".
In a reading they told that
gratitude has been called
"The memory of the heart"
and that it is the song of the
soul in the presence of God.
Their scripture lesson was
taken from II Corinthians 9,
which told that two good
things happen as a result of
giving gifts to the poor -
those in need are helped and
they overflow with thanks to
God. Jennie closed the
program with a prayer on
Thanksgiving and the roll
call was answered with
"What are you thankful
for?"
