Times-Advocate, 1985-03-06, Page 10Page 10 Times -Advocate, March 6, 1985 Middlesex teachers at conference in Toronto The F.W.T.A.O. held their February Conference at the Con- stellation Hotel in Toronto in February. Every local Federation sent two delegates to this year's ex- citing conference. Middlesex was represented by three members; Adrienne Toews and Joyce Pedersen, who attended as delegates and Shirley MacMillan, who served on the planning commit- tee as a representative of the whole of Region 1. The theme - "The Contemporary Woman - Healthy, Confident and Aware", was a very topical one at a time when women teachers, already under stress due to their profession, are having to cope with the added stress of adjusting to changing male/female roles in our society. Joan Green, Supervisory Officer for the Toronto Board of Education, spoke on using "networking" in a pro- fessional manner; Helen C. Porter presented a powerful rendition of "The Voices of Women" - a collection of poems and stories which remind- ed those present of the rich heritage of courage, love and wisdom which has been passed on from grand- mother to mother to daughter. Marion Lane, a lawyer, from Toronto, gave an update on the legal implications of three contemporary issues: changes in Family Law, the legal capacity ot children and Bill 82 trom the perspective ot parents ane lawyers. The rest of the time was spent in two of eleven workshops, all dealing with issues which are becoming more and more relevent to all women in society. These included topics rang- ing from medical consumerism to basic financial training, impression management and dealing with stress through a well-balanced life. The planners should be commend- ed for their hard work, good taste, and sensitivity in their choice of topics, speakers and workshop leaders.

From Thames Road Ladies at Clinton Presbyterial Mrs. Rohde Mrs. Howard Pym, Elimville, Rev. Robert Matheson, Mr. William Rohde attended the Presbytery meeting in Ontario St. United Church, Clintop Tuesday afternoon and evening. Mrs. Mary Thomson, Exeter and Mr. and Mrs. William Rohde visited with Mr. and Mrs. Robert Ross, Lon- don, Thursday afternoon.

Mrs. Mac Hodgert, Miss Doris Elford, Mrs. George Kellett, Mrs. Glen Stewart and Mrs. William Rohde attended the World Day of Prayer Service at Exeter United Church, Fri- day. It was a very inspiring service. The Second Sunday in Lent Church Service was held on Sunday morning with Rev. Robert Matheson in charge. The Responsive Reading was taken from Psalm 105:1-10. - The children's story was entitled "Cover -Up or Clean Up." The Scrip- ture Lesson was read from Genesis 17:10, 15-19, Romans 4:16-25, Mark 9:1-9, The sermon was entitled "Rooting About". Romans is a commentary on our first passage. Paul informs us the key to the story of Abram is faith, what of God's faith in human beings. Salvation is always a gift - never a reward! Abraham's faith never weakened - what of our faith?! Everything depends on faith. Centralia UCW host to ladies from Zion Mrs. Kooy United Church Women of Centralia held a World Day of Prayer service Friday night. Zion West U.C.W. were the guests.

Itoger Mason announced that the yellow rosebud on the pulpit was to be presented to baby Cameron David Ross, born Tuesday February 26 to David and Judith Ross. Mr. Nello Romagnoli led the worship in song. Rev. Mason spoke about the second coming of Christ from 1 Thessalo- nions 4:15-18. It is comforting to Christians that they are to encourage one another in the belief that Jesus is returning. 'Phis portion of Scriptures talks about Christians being taken up to heaven. In the Old Testament two women were taken up alive to heaven, because they walked with God. In the New Testament Jesus was caught up to heaven with the promise He would return for His church, the Christians. One of the signs Jesus will come is people mocking about it. The return of the Lord is personal as in Verse 16. Acts 1:11 give the promise Jesus will return. The Lord's return in verse 16 will be a royal return, announced with a shout, the archangel. and the trumpet of God. Sunday evening Rick Thornton opened the service reading Leviticus 26:2-12, before leading the singing. Rev. Roger Mason, from Nehemiah 5:1-13, talked about correcting wrongs. In verse 2 some families were star- ving because all their grain was gone. Verses 4-5 tell some had mortgaged their farms and homes to buy food. Some had borrowed to pay taxes in verses 4-5. Some Jews had become slaves because they could not pay their debts. When people have a complaint they go to the right person. In verses 6-9 Nehemiah became aware. of these valid complaints. He was angry because of the injustice. According to Jewish law a Jew could make loan to another Jew, but if they were poor, they were not to collect interest. Many of the rich Jews had charged their poor brethren interest, causing people to lose their property. Sunday, March 10, Stan Crookall, president of Bible Arts Ministries will be teaching an open session in Sunday School, and be preaching in both services.
