Baptismal at UC
A very impressive Baptismal ser-
vice took place at the United Church
on Sunday morning when Tim Wilcox
and his two children, Shane and Shan-
non, were received through Baptism.
Mrs Wilcox also assisted with the
baptism.
The service was conducted by Rev.
McDonald who continued his sermon
thoughts on how God is revealed
through the parables. This week he
looked at the Parable of The Talents.
Bill Stebbins greeted the congrega-
tion and Jonathon Corbett, Cathy Cor-
bett, Shane Pepper and Tara Pepper
were the ushers.
• Belva Fuss, accompanied by Jean
Jacobe at the piano, sang two very
beautiful solos, With Grateful Hearts,
a Baptismal solo sung to the Old Ger-
man melody, and "He's Only A
Prayer Away". -
Steve Corbett led the junior con-
gregation and Audrey Christie
assisted by Elva Forrest hosted the
Fellowship hour following the service.
Queensway
Queensway's kitten has an official
name! Our residents voted by secret
ballot last Wednesday. They were
given 13 names to choose from that
were submitted for our Name That
Cat Contest. Mrs. Mary Gower was
our contest winner as the name
"Smokey"she submitted to the con-
test was chosen to be our kitten's
name. Thanks to everyone who par-
ticipated in our contest. I'm sure
Smokey is happy to have a name at
last.
Rev. Stan McDonald performed our
church service this week. Joyce
Pepper was our volunteer pianist for
the service.
This week our residents enjoyed an
ice cream parlour in our dining room.
It was a real treat. Everyone had the
pleasare of choosing their toppings,
which consisted of chocolate sauce,
butterscotch sauce, whip cream,
coconut, walnuts, and cherries. It was
a terrific activity which everyone
agreed we should do again!
Our movie presentation for this
week was entitled "Stompin' Tom."
It was the story about how Stompin'
Tom Conners became famous .
Everyone really enjoyed the film.
Everyone here at Queensway is busi-
ly preparing for our Volunteer Party.
We are looking forward to seeing all
of our volunteers together.
Quote of the week: "Much wisdom
often goes with fewest words."

You know you're getting old
when your idea of a "happy
houl" is a nap.
11 you fall into a hole, an op-
timist will pull you out. A
pessimist will get in with
you.
Making money go further is
no problem. Keeping it
within reach causes most of
the trouble.

New Varna -Goshen minister
Sam Parker, who has succeeded
Rev. Wilena Brown as minister of
Varna and Goshen United churches,
came to his profession by a roun-
dabout route. Parker was spending a
work term atClarkson Gordon as part
of a three-year co-op math course at
the University of Waterloo, heading
for a career as a chartered accoun-
tant, when he felt an increasingly
strong call to the ministry.
Parker grew up in the United
Church. He first accepted Jesus as
Lordand Saviour at the height of the
Jesus Movement while a grade seven
student in Chatham, where he lived
from age eight to 18. However,
with little further nurturing, his rela-
tionship with God was allowed to fade
into the background over the next few
get to know each person", he
revealed.
Parker also stresses the impor-
tance of teaching, so people will
understand and know their faith.
Summing up, Parkerexpressed the
hope that his stay at Varna -Goshen
will be "one of healthy growth in our
relationship with one another and
with Jesus".

Rev. Sam Parker
ed in 1981", in Parker's words, part-
ly through the influence of his iden-
tical twin brother and an older
brother who were both interning as
ministers in Tillsonburg.
Parker enrolled with the Toronto
school of Theology at Emmanu Col-
lege of Victoria University in 1983
after completing his term at Clarkson
Gordon.
Parker, 28, was ordained May 28
and came to Stanley Township July
1. His internship at Gander, New-
foundland, as one of three ministers
jointly caring for three rural charges
was excellent preparation for Varna -
Goshen. He thinks the people here are
great, and the size of the charges
"excellent"
The welcome Parker and his wife
Barbara Ann have received from the
congregations and the community is
greatly appreciated, Parker said.
Visiting has a high priority with
Parker. "I can't preach to faces in a
