Sutton, for the past three Sundays has ,been speaking about Christ all the way of life. This past Sunday his text was. "He who believes has eternal life." He talked about the Gospel of John 6:41-51. This gospel speaks about the manner in which the Jews murmered amongst themselves when Jesus made statements about Heaven and that He came down from Heaven to be with them. They were taught to believe in facts and what was written down only. Rev. Sutton feels that some of us are like those Jews, we have to have our religion clean cut and simple. But we must have faith and through that faith in Jesus we will receive strength and peace and be able to accept and understand all that goes on about us. This free-will ad- vantage has been given to us by God. Coffee hostesses were Mrs. Vivian Probert and Mrs. Dorothy Childs.

Harbour commission move quickly on plan Grand Bend Harbour Com- mission planning committee was cautioned by chairman, Tom Lawson, that Grand Bend will be left behind in harbour development unless a cooperative and coor- dinated effort is made. The group met Wednesday in the village. Lawson said that the first logical step is to develop an overall plan for the needs of the area. He felt that the pro- posed building, to house tourist facilities, radio and customs should have priority in such a plan. He was scheduled to meet with MP Ralph Ferguson to ask for guidelines and ap- proval of a commission. He hoped to discuss the idea of a study between the piers and the bridge on Highway 21. Committee members present were given direction to follow special areas of concern in development. Lawyer Van Laughton and surveyor Jack Gray agreed to investigate lease and owner- ship'of property along the drainage cut and the Ausable river within the village limits. An earlier idea to develop a portion of the old river bed for dockage was rejuvinated. Southcott Pines, owner of the area, had put aside the idea because the spaces made available within the com- pany's jurisdication (between River and Lake roads) were not sufficient to make the pro- ject commercially viable. As . an adjunct to the harbour system, however, the idea was given new life. Developer Don Southcott agreed to look further into the idea. Marina owner Dick Manore and boat dealer Peter Warner were asked to develop a plan for services to all recreational boaters. Joe Green agreed to work with Wayne Moody to assess the present and future of commercial fishermen. The effect of harbour development on residents near the river and on the south beach will be studied by Shirley Mitchell, representing the Property Lovers Associa- tion, and Bud Gowan. Gowan owns property above the south beach. The possibility of a Coast Guard Auxiliary will be look- ed at by John Bowman (Cruising Club) and Len Open Daily Mon. -Sat. 10-5:30 Sunday 12-5:30 1 Men s an Ladies - all sizes (Sweaters not exactly as illustrated) 1;74A iTt 0 fE lb Main St. FACTORY OUTLET GRAND BEND 238-8007 Hume (Yacht Club) Members of the group are working on a volunteer basis and without a budget. ._�....'
