A, Townshend, Suf- fragan Bishop of Huron. , They, were: . Desmond Weber, John' Marriott,' Arnold Fisher, ;Elmer Jenkins, James Semple, James Bayes; 'Kenneth Hartman, Donald McCabe, Judith Patterson, Catherine Anderson, Mrs, '}L B. .such Mrs. Gertrude Goldthorpe, Hr. and ' Mrs.. Albert Kneeshaw,. Mrs. 'Joseph Craig, Nancy Haysoi Mrs. Cayley fill, Mrs. Munroe and Norma Hamilton, The class for confirmation was presented by the rector, Rev. K. E. Taylor. At the start of the service a new door at the entrance to the church was ,,,dedicated by Bishop Townshend." The door is a gift df Mrs. John MaciEwan in memory of her parents. " "" -Dr:-Taylorextended-a--weloome- to Bishop Townshend, a native of Goderich Township, and expressed the hope he would visit the parish again. • Bishop Townshend said it was always a great joy to come back to his native county, township and to thetown of Goderich. He referred to the splendid progress that. was noticeable in St. George's Church, mentioning the improve- .ments .made,..in-,•the--parish..hall-an d the nursery. Bishop Townshend said the class for confirmation was "well" pre- pared." Ile took as his text Act 1:8: "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come .upon you; and ye shall be wit- nesses ,unto me both -in Jerusalem and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the iitterii oarload °o ,the earth," After pointing out that this con- firination was. 'on the day of Penter cost,. Bishop Townshend said, On this day' the wohdrotis ,gift' of the holy ,spirit was 'given." i'Addressing those' confirmed, .he said, ' "Your membership in the Church should be yopr most prized possession, your greatest asset." The church ` today has prestige, position, ',organization}; . it has so much—yet today it' seems 'to ,fack the touch of the radiance of those God-fearing .men of 'early days, said Bishop Townshend.. Why is this, he asked? We are too self - dependent, too self-centred, too self -sufficient ---forgetting that our self-sufficiency is of God, he stated. Too many of us want to run the chuteh2 in our own. way and that's a tragic mistake, he stated. We need to get down on our knees nd pzay, that tie,• holy spirit will give us guidance. "Men are chang- ed through the' power of the holy spirit, he said. . In the course of his sermon Bishop Townshend recalled a state- ment of the late Archbishop Sea- ger who once said, "The acid test of Christianity is our ability to work together' as fellow workers for God."
