From our missionaries

Dear Friends:
Have you ever been , in • a
Volkeswagon when the engine
fell out? Nor had we until
yesterday, but- there is always
something new to be
experienced! There we were six
of us, driving peacefully -along
to Kath mandu for the Workers'
�y__ ._ ,Conference„when sddeny the
gears flew out and the engine
started to roar. Gwen was
driving. Pam and I jumped out
of the car to put a rock .under
the back wheel (we were going
up hill). It Was then that we
discovered ,that the engine was
hanging down at the back!
Eventually, some tante after the
ignition, .was turned off, the
engine stopped turning over.
That was as far as I got with
this letter on March 2, when we
were stranded on the Chinese
road. The Lord looked after us
and we really had a very
comfortable night .and morning
camping there We have just
taken on a new class of
students- eight girls and ',nine
boys, three of whom"» "will ' be
n, going into. public health. Please
pray for them that they may fit
in quickly and may meet the
Lord Jesus while they are here.
Two of ,the boys are.believers.
students, have finished their
two -yeas training and will be,
graduating in. May. At least one
of these has a living experience
of the Lord Jesus and often
-expresses-his-faith in- the . songs` '
he .makes .up -and sings.
One of our staff nurses
witnessed to her new found faith
in the waters of a nearby river
last month. The Lord had been
'working in her heart for years
and we were very "thio » 'd when

for the young men mho have not
yet taken this step. We feel. in
our spirit's that' all is not right
with one ''or two of them. We
need„believing prayer, that they
may be_ completely delivered
from evil by the power of Jesus
Name..::The Saturday night
fellowship meetings continue to
be well attended. We have just
started a new series of Bible
studies on Joshua,...We are
extremely' busy in the hospital
all the time, with more
outpatients, inpatients and° •
operations than ever before...our
greatest. 'need is.for nurses to

ited Church -
r tied strongly to the past:
When. Nc)i"th Street. Church
-came int kteirtg 'in..1,.t 1,—the-
group ' of worshippers was a
branch of : the Wesleyan
Methodist Church. In 1875, the ,
New Connexion Methodists
joined them in union to become
the Canada Methodist Church.
In, 1884, a larger '• union took
place when , the Canada
Methodist, the Methodist'°
Episcopal, Primitive Methodist
and the Bible Christian xadies•
united with the name of the
Methodist , Church of
Canada. And in 1925 ' the
Methodist Church of Canada,
the'Congregational Church, and
the Presbyterian Church in
Canada joined forces to form
the United. Church of Canada. •
Prior to 1841 there was no
resident minister, but the group ,
was served by travelling
°'apr-eaehers---a-nd - -students- -who--
lived in the town while
preparingfor their ordination. _
On October 4, 1841, Thomas
Mercer Jones and Frederick
Widder; acting for the Cahada
Company, deeded to Rev. E.
Evans and Rev. Thos. Fawcett,
i
lots 5 and 6, east side of North
Street.
In ..1844 a frame . church _ W . .
built, The furnishings Were
simple. The seats""wefre-benches:°

occupied seats on one side of the
room, and the women were,

time. Since there was ne

,were assigned on June 11, 1848,
to the trustees of the Wesleyan -
_Methodist Church _at o4tettd :
The old frame church served
the congregation for fifteen
years or more. In 1859, during
the pastorate of 'Rev. Thomas
Cosford, the trustees decided to
proceed with the erection of a
brick church. Itwas decided
that the building should be 60
feet by "40 feet; of ` brick on °a
stone foundation. A subscription
t was opened, a° copy of which
is inserted in an n1d book of
.minutes. It is ihoticeable that
persons of "all denominations
aided the Methodists
generously,
In 1860, the church was
dedicated.'' By 1865 the
congregation had so increased in
numbers that in order to
accommodate them; a gallery
was built around three sides of
-the ditorium: ,But'°stili-`ri i re—
room was needed,, and iri 1869
an addition of twenty-four feet
was made. to the length of the
building. By now •the building
was formed in the Shape. of a T.
In 1875, when the union with
•the New Connexion body was
formed, Forth Street Church
and the old Brock Street Church
were united under one
superintenden,t, For a few years
both churches were kept open,
an unordained minister assisting
the pastor. In 1878, the trustees
of Brock Street Church, agreed
to sell their building and use the
sum obtained to enlarge North
Street Church so that it would
accommodate ,!both
congregations. This was done
and the addition made the°
building's' shape the form of 'a
Roman- cross, .
The building, with slight
alterations, was used until 1906
when, during the pastorate of
Rev. G.N. Hazen, it was torn
down, and The present church
erected in -its place. The
congregation worshipped In the
