Wesley -Willis have 50th
Last Sunday, Wesley -
Willis United Church
celebrated the 50th an-
niversary of their present
church build ng.
However, the
congregation dates back
to 1856 with a church
being built on Rattenbury
Street in 1858. At the turn
of the century, the
congregation decided to
relocate and in March
1902 the new building was
dedicated on property
between King St. and
Victoria St. This building
was destroyed by fire in
June of 1928. Plans were
made for a new building
and the present building
was built at an ap-
proximate cost of $70,000
and was dedicated in
June of 1929 .
Many former members
and friends returned
Sunday for worship and
noon lunch at the church.
The worship service was
conducted by the present
minister, Rev. John S.
Oestreicher with Rev.
Don Cornish a
ministerial son" of
Wesley -Willis preaching
the sermon.
Rev. Cornish of Mount
Hamilton United Church,
Hamilton, brought very
timely message on the
subject "Thanks for the
Memories". A 50 voice
choir made up of present
day members plus
alumni members under
the direction of Mary
,Hearn accompanied by
Cathi Potter brought a
joyful sound to worship.
One of the highlights of
the celebration was the
singing of the Hallelujah
Chorus by the Choir.

You
You are a person. You have desires and emotions.
You laugh and cry. You think and reason. Sometimes
you are frustrated -and distressed. Are you happy, on
the average - usually?
You want to be happy, everyone wants to be happy,
but few are truly happy.
Why are people so unhappy? There are so many
things intended to amuse them. There are radio and
television programs; sports and contests; fairs and
exhibitions and art. Still people are unhappy, why?
The answer is not a simple one. There are so many
circumstances and conditions involved. There is a very
basic and important requirement for a happy life. That
is a proper spiritual foundation.
If you desire to get rid of frustration, failure and fear
you must know that you and God are at peace and in
harmony. You need to know that God is real, that He
has forgiven you for your sins and that He will give you
the strength you need to overcome the evils that spoil
your life.
Please read the Bible carefully and contact the spon-
sors of this ad if you would like help in finding true
happiness in your life. -

with Evelyn Hardy, the
instructor, commenting.
The group is most
ambitious and there is
keen interest among the
members. Plans for the
fall and winter include a
display at the Ripley Fall
Fair in September; one at
the Christmas Country
Fair in Saltford in
October; an exhibition of
these crafts with
members demonstrating
various methods at the
River Mill in Benmiller in
November; and a
workshop in corduroy rug
weaving taught by Ruth
Knight in January in
Goderich.
The Guild meetings are
held the second Tuesday
of each month except
January and February,
at 8 p.m. Any interested
spinner or weaver,
beginner or experienced,
is welcome to attend. The
June meeting is to
feature a mini -workshop
on the use of color in
these crafts.
The purpose of the
Guild is to promote an
increased awareness and
knowledge of the value of
handcrafted weaving to
the public. A guild is an
excellent vehicle for local
spinners and weavers to
learn from one another.
For this reason the
workshops already given
and planned for in the
near future use the talent
among the members.
John Kerr, a spinner of
Brussels, gave a dye
workshop using nature
dyes on his farm last
summer and a mini -
workshop on spinning
with a drop spindle (a
primitive method) in
April. Evelyn Hardy has
given a workshop in
frame loom weaving for
the spinners who have a
limited amount of their
handspun yarn with
which to work.
