Mom theme
at meeting
Jean Murray, leader of the after-
noon Exeter UCW opened the May
meeting with prayer. Following the
reading of the minutes and the roll
call, Cora Miner gave her report of
the Christian Development Commit-
tee. She reviewed the different areas
of work in the UCW and the progress
made in each.
She announced that the mission
study for '85-'86 would deal with our
native peoples. She recommended the
book "Without Reserve" to the ladies.
Some dates to remember: ex-
ecutive meeting May 15, general
meeting May 27, Camp Day June 3.
Friendship Tea May 23.
A program with a "Mother" theme
was presented by Thelma Russell and
her group. Poems were read by Chris
Philips, Thelma Russell and Olive
Hicks.
Dorothy Grainger based the wor-
ship service on John 19:26,27 and
Ephesians, the fifth and sixth
chapters including instruction to the
whole family unit.
Margaret Coates favoured with a
piano solo.
Pat Rowe showed pictures of her
trip to New Zealand, especially South
Island. The scenery here is rugged,
rough, but strikingly beautiful. It in-
cluded boiling mud, spouting geysers
and swinging bridges over deep
ravines. After listening to her most in-
teresting commentary, the ladies felt
they had been with her.
A lunch of tea and cupcakes was
served by Leone Brock's group.

Over 400 in St. Marys
Brady speaks at
About 400 ladies were present for
the Special Event of the Huron -Perth
Presbytery of United Church Women
held in St. Marys United Church. the
theme of the evening was "Sharing
and Caring". The group was welcom-
ed by Mrs. Muriel Coultes, RR 5
Brussels, Presbyterial president and
by Mrs. Eleanor Hawkins, local UCW
president. Musical entertainment was
provided by the junior choir of St.
Marys church under the direction of
Mrs. Anita Ruthig.
Mrs. Mary Broughton, RR 2 At-
wood, and Mrs. Florence Skinner, RR
1 Mitchell, presented the book review
of new books available. Mrs. Helen
Welch, president of Bruce
Presbyterial was introduced.
Mrs. Alma Langford of Exeter in-
troduced the first speaker of the even-
ing who was Bill Brady, founding
president of Transplants Interha-
tional. Brady said that 30 people had
received new hearts since 1980 at
University Hospital. Because of the
success of the transplants their quali-
ty of life is now great. He said it all
depends on luck. Someone's bad luck
and death means good luck and life to
someone else.
The most needed organ is the
kidney. Twelve hundred new patients
in Canada go on dialysis each year.
These are between 500 and 600
kidneys donated each year with a
waiting list between 800 and 1000. Why
aren't more tranplants done? There
just aren't enough kidneys.
You can't buy life. Life must be
given. He urged each one of us to
make a commitment while we're still
alive. We'll probably never have to
honour the commitment unless the
situation is just right but it is a real
privilege to give the gift of life to so-
meone. Brady was thanked by Alma
Godbolt of Exeter.
Mrs. Margaret Engeland of Strat-
ford introduced the second speaker of
the evening, Mrs. Barbara Hicks, of
Clinton, who spoke on inner healing.

She told us her life story and how she
overcame many difficulties by put-
ting her faith in God. She urged us to
share our faith and not be undercover
Christians. She was thanked by Mrs.
Muriel Coultes.
Mrs. Marjorie Johns of Exeter gave
the courtesy remarks and the even-
ing closed with an inspiring worship
service led by Mrs. Lois Haynes and
Mrs. Dorothy Grange of Auburn. Mrs.
Susan Howson of Blyth played the
