Baking, •sewing, knit- ting, plants, jams, crafts of all kinds, and lunch disappeared as the day evolved. The U.C.W. realized an income of over $3500 when the bazaar rolled to an end. Many thanks to all who contributed items to be sold, those who worked, and those who purchased to contribute to the event's success. "Tomorrow! Tomorrow! I love ya, tomorrow!" That was the mes- sage throughout the service on Sun- day, November 12. With the aid of a "worrywart" picture, Rev. Rick Hawley invited the children to put their trust in God rather than worry about things that "might" happen. The Biblp readings and sermon elaborated on this theme, and was bazaar raises more than $3,500 very aptly summed up in the words of "Annie" from the Broadway mu- sical as sung by Linda Snell, ac- c6mpanied on the piaato by her fa- ther Peter.
