Teens for recreation?
During the summer, recrea
tion director Jim Ward receiv-
ed' an anonymous Tetter front
the "BORED teenagers of j Ing-
ham". 'Apparently ther was
not enough for them to do. Now
he is ready to meet with them.
Ilio they feel there is enough to
do now that they are back to
school or do they want organ-
'ized recreation programs?
Nearly every community
has a teen club of some dis-
tinction but Wingham has not.
The success of teen programs
lies with the drive and deter-
mination, the wants and needs
of the teens of today._ They 0

Mrs.. Robert Ross gave the topic,
"One Thing Desirable What-
soever one desires one usually
seeks.. One who desires money
seeks after money. It costs '
little to follow 'a desire that
goes only a' little way but it i`s

-Anthem sung by
u K
junior choir at
Wroxeter United
The Wroxeter United Church
congregation was again pleased
to have the junior choir lead
the singing. The anthem was
"Walk Hand in Hand with Jesus"
by I;ister.
The minister, Rev. G. Sach,
chose as his text, "Give us this
day our daily bread, " He link-
ed the problem of food from
ancient times to the present.
The people of early Pales-
tine lived mostly on a dayko.
day plan. The disciples of
Jesus often prayed "Give us this
day our daily bread, " and often
they didn't know where the
next meal was corning from.
Jesus himself knew hunger
when he fasted forty days. In
the book, "The Three Cities",
the
the people had to live on very
little but it was a greater hard-
ship when even the "very little"
could not be had.
Our forefathers le ft the
homeland to come to a free life
in a beautiful land. In many
lands mothers put hungry chil-
dren with pinched faces to bed.
We live in an affluent society;
food in restaurants is thrown out,
while others go hungry; and
some search garbage cans.
There is a great explosion in
population, but there is rio need
to go hungry, if we, as brothers,
would pass around the plate.
Jesus fed five thousand, but
discovered the multitude was
after food, not purely the di.
vine message. In dining with
Jesus, Zachaeus was awakened
to a new life. Give the under"
privileged food, but fill their
empty hearts with spiritual life,
the speaker said. It i5 our duty
to send the gospel to o t h er
lairds. Our greatest sin is self-
ishness. We receive new rner
cies every day and should be
praying.
Service in Wroxeter united
