They all served communion. The Scripture Lesson was read from Job 42:1-6, James 4:13-17, 5:7-11 and Mark 9:38-50. The meditation was entitled "In The Name of Jesus". Meditation: Job gives up his 'poor me" attitude and prepares to make a new start. Jesus demonstrates an in- clusiveness to his ministry which overawes his disciples and other followers. True greatness comes from follow- ing God as closely as we can. Job speaks of admitting our own helplessness. Passages address social justice verses clerical arrogance and challenge our prejudices.

Mr. Alfred Ropp of Tavistock and other members of his group from the New Hamburg area entertained for the evening with violin, guitar, mouth -organ, step dan- cing, piano and vocal numbers.

The annual Auxiliary bazaar, bake sale, tea and penny sale will be held on Saturday, November 9 from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. here as usual. Please reserve this date. If you can con- tribute baking or items for the penny sale, I know they would be most ap- preciated. Proceeds of course, are for the benefit of the Home and the residents' needs. Our morning sessions of discussion groups, fitness groups, singing, etc are becoming more vigorous since the cooler weather discourages the residents from sitting outside and tak- ing their regular walks.
