Home a. Flower service at United Church GORRIE--The congregation of Gorrie United Church was privileged to participa_e with the members of the Sunday School in their annual Church School anniversary and flower service Sunday morning. The church was filled to capacity sith many coming as early as 10.30 to enjoy the prelude of music on the organ and piano. presented by Mrs. G. W. Sach, and Miss Larke Carson and Miss Joyce Hamilton. • The entry to the church \.,,as made beautiful with baskets of flowers, and the fragrance of lilacs enhanced the be au ry which met the eye of the be- holder on entering the sanctu- ary. Shady woodland nooks at each side of the chancel ac- cented the central scene with tall graceful forest ferns a n d baskets of spring blossoms, li- lacs, tulips and trilliums. The theme of this year's service was "God's Gifts", and this thought was carried through - Shower GORRIE-Miss Barbara Henry, of Wingham, a June bride-to- be, was guest of honor at a miscellaneous shower held in St. Stephen's Church, Gorrie, on Saturday evening with over 80 attending. Misses Dawna and Margaret Bennett were hostesses. out the worship service. God's gift of the beauty of nature was depicted in a rainbow arching across the choir loft, and the theme•was carried across the rainbow in rose coloured flow- ers against a white background. The Sunday School pupils entered the church in a floral processional, and as they took their places, each carrying a nosegay, they formed a living flower garden. The call to wor- ship, was. given by Marilyn Grath. ger. and appropriate poems were recited by Barbara Mann, Ricky Nay, Brian Johnston and Dale Edgar. Special music by the junior choir added greatly to the service, as did the tal- ented Bell Ringers from Wing - ham. Rev. Sach in his "Talk to Little 'Folks"; with.the help of several boys from the Sunday School, made an acrostic using the word "beautiful", showing very vividly by signs which the boys held, that beauty is creat- ed by various qualities such as being earnest, faithful, industr- "thus. useful, etc. Also, how God's greatest gift to man was the gift of Hislove in that he gave His only Begotten Son that man might have eternal life. Appreciation of the church School teachers and officers was very fittingly. expressed to all who had worked so faithful- lyand contributed to the com- plete.success of the service.
