By Yvonne Reynolds EXETER - Emmanuel Baptist Church celebrated its 34th anniver- sary on Sunday March 31. Guest minister Rev. Bruce Scott observed that such occasions provide an pp- portunity to celebrate God's faith- , fulness, as we look back to His grace in the past, and ahead to a bright future. March is an important month in Emmanuel's history. The idea of a Fellowship Baptist church in Exeter began with an organizational meet- ing on March 15, 1462. Twenty- tbur charter members formed the nucleus of the new congregation. Arrangements were made to rent the facilities of Bethel Reformed Church, and Emmanuel held its first service there on March 25, 1962. The present property at 187 Huron Street West was purchased the following year. From 1964 to 1967 white beans were grown on the land; all profits went into the building fund. Church construction began in late 1967, and the first ser'ice was held in Emmiinuel on March 3, 1968. By last fall Pastor Kevin Rut- ledge, Emmanuel's pastor since 1986, suggested two services be held on Sunday mornings to ac- commodate a growing congrega- tion. The people of Emmanuel are now looking ahead. They are in the process of purchasing a five - acre property at the south-east cor- ner of Highway 4 and the Kirkton Road as the eventual relocation site of Emmanuel Baptist Church. Taking his text from Hebrews 11, Rev. Scott noted that gowth and change are risky, but challenged his listeners to step out like Abra- ham did, and prove that the God , who has been talthtbl in the past will continue to be faithful in the future. 4-H club holds achievement night Susan Bryan will receive a desk set for completing 12 clubs. • By Muriel Lewis GRANTON .
