Rf<oi OWIng the story of 4'
week's; tlnited Church annlver*
ary, when a play dePieting the
history of the Metlimlist Church
in the dam area was
pre-
sented, the ►dvance `l nes re-
ceived a eopY of thhe Wingham
.Advance, dated February 2Q,
1902. The paper was supplied to
us by Robert Montgomery ° of
Wingham.
The edition featured the story
of the opening of the Wingham
Methodist 'Church which took
place on February 16,1902. It told
of the history of the congregation
from the year 1854 when Rev. A.
Campbell expanded the northern
limits of the denomination, locat-
ed at Clinton, and established
appointments in Morris and
Wawanosh., supplying them with
services from Clinton,
In 1866, T. G. Jackson and J. A.
Flack canvassed for subscrip=^
tions for the building of a church,
which was built on Arthur Street,
just west of the Salt Block. The
Presbyterian church occupied
the site of the Salt Works, the
Baptist church on the west side of
the river in Lower Town and the
Church of England near the CPR
station. That Methodist church
was later sold to J. D. Long and in
1902, it was being used as a steam
laundry. In 1874, it was replaced
by the first church built on
Minnie Street.
The present structure was built
in 1901 but again, sailing was not
all smooth for the hard-working
members of the congregation.
The 1902 paper .reads: "In 1900,
the old church building shbwed
signs of having seen its best days
and Rev. R. Hobbs broached the
subject of building. At the very
inception of the enterprise, the
pastor met with discouragement.
A number of the trustees consid-
ered that the time had not arrived
for building a new church and
that there should be at least three
or four thousand dollars to start
with. They declined assuming
any of ttteesponsibility attend-
ant upon the undertaking, and at
once tendered their resignations.
These were accepted and the
pastor, nothing daunted, nomin-

Puppet play present
at Baptist Church SS
(Intended for last week)
Enthralling young and old
alike, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Smith of
Cambridge presided Over a
record attendance of 106 at the
Sunday School session in the
Wingham Baptist Church - on
Sunday morning.
Mr. and Mrs. Smith, who are
teachers at the Temple Baptist
Church in Cambridge (Preston),
delighted their young audience
with songs, magic, object lessons
and numbers played on musical
water glasses,. A highlight of their
presentation was a puppet
dramatization of the story of the
thicken and the fox. The Chicken
who would not believe in the fox,
found to his dismay that the fox
was very real. The chicken, in
turn, was compared to many
people who do not believe that
God is real.or that .sin is a major
problem in their lives.
During the morning worship
service, 127 listened as Pastor
Ross Smith spore of the respons,
ibility of the church to "preach
the Word of God and thus fulfil
the great commission given to us
by the Lord". He used as scrip-
ture reference portions of the
twelfth chapter of Paul's second
letter to the Corinthians Wherein
the apostle Paul seeks to support
his God -ordained apostleship by
speaking of the revelations and
.visions -which he had experienced
from the Lord. • -
Pastor Smith and hisbrother
sang a-tromb ne u t inti Paul
alsoldaythaliainbime solo. Mrs.
Ross Smith played the piano and
Mrs. Raymond Neill ,presided at.
the console of the organ.
The evening message given by
Pastor Smith was a continuation
of his study of Revelation. He
defined the word `church' as
meaning "called -out ones, men
and women who have been called
out from the world by God's Holy
Spirit and redeemed by the blood
of Jesus Christ and separated
unto God the Father". In explain-
ing the letter to the church in
Smyrna, he said the church had
suffered much for her faith in
Christ but spiritually, she was
fabulously rich. "Each believer
had the assurance of sins for-
given."
A unique ceremony took place
in the Baptist Church this Sunday
as three generations profeaed a
faith in the, living Lord and went
through the 'waters of baptism.
Mrs. Clark, Mrs. C. O'Gorman
and her daughter, Kathryn, were
welcomed warmly into the
fellowship of the church following
the cleansing ceremony.
At the evening service, Pastor
Ross Smith continued his study of
Revelation, speaking about the
church in Pergamos. He com-
pared that church to modern-day
churches and people who cam to ,t
the ways orthe devil,:j�"Ang
their actions. He said that ,any,
thing that comes between, the
Christian and Christ is wrOlg ancl
if the Christian finds himself In .a
compromising situation or - efrr.. -7v
cumstances where l's Nome
not being .honored, -he must
out'.
Mr. Smith stressed the impor-
tance of the Christian being wilt-
ing to 'take . a stand for Christ'•
and let the world know heis a be-
liever.
At the evening service Ur*
Raymond Neill provided organ
music and Mrs. Smith presided at
the piano. Frank Collar sang a
solo, "I Ajn Not Worthy".
The pastor's topic at the morn-
ing
`.
service was `Hospitality' as
he spoke of the concern we must
show for others. He used his his
scripture reference portions of
Paul's second letter to' heCorind
thians wherein he accused' them.
of claiming to be something they
were not. He stressed the impor-
tance of `outreach' *to others.
Mr. Collar sang two duets with
Mrs. Neill at the organ. Doug:
Thomson was pianist throughout
the service.
