Ron Faw, a Canadian missionary to Brazil, and a paraplegic as a result of a motorcycle accident on the field, inspired the 60 people present in the first service with his dedication and his account of God's working.in that country. The first indication that something unusual was happening came when Pastor Carne announced that the offering of cash and pledges totalled $129725. he Friday evening service featured mis- sionary Wayne Feay of Sierra Leone, Africa. The offering that night amounted to a further.$1902.54. Saturday evening, Keith, Elliott represented the work of the church in Ecuador. At this point, Pastor Carne con- fessed later that he was sure that "the well had gone dry," but the evening's offering yielded another $1399.45. Sandra Tjart, a 'counsellor to a'l'coholics, vention held drug addicts, prostitutes and homosexuals in an inner-city .ministry in Brazil, told of her work in the final service on Sunday mor- ning.. There was a great sense of praise and thanksgiving when the offering of $1084.50 was announced. Sunday evening further pledges, amounting to $240 were received. The goal for the convention had .been set at $3000; the total cash and pledges received was $5923.70. Three -feet -high figures of people of various nationalities were drawn and painted by Shirley Luna and Pastor Carne and located on the front walls of the church. The theme, -Partners In Harvest", was il- lustrated by sacks of grain on the platform, toy tractors and combines in th'e windows and a large picture depicting a farm scene, with four pieces representing the miracles accomplished by prayer, manpower, money and materials, cut out in jig -saw fashion. Each night the service began in the dark while a taped monologue. emphasized the importance of one of the pieces of. the picture that was later placed in its ap- propriate place and coloured' lights .were turned- up to illuminate the whole scene; - OSAP budget increased The. Ontario Student Assistance Program OSAP I budget will be increased by 17 per cent 'for • 1987-88, Colleges and Universities Minister Gregory Sorbara said recently. Specific improvements to OSAP include a sharp reduction in the fil;ancial contribution from parents .of students from low-income families. As well, sole support parents will now be eligible'for grant assistance to cover child care costs. OSAP will provide more assistance to students from, farm families because farm assets will now, be considered at half their net 'value. The decision to increase assistance to students from farm t'amilies resulted fro'n a review of declining farm prices and the resulting impact on farm incomes. •From.colour Negative or slide eCoupon must accompany order •blot to be used in conjunction with any, other offer •offer expires May 31, 1987 colortro n photo servloes2 •Goupon'rnust accompany order ',From slide or negative 'Not to be used in conjunction with any other offer •Offet,.expires April 30, 1987 0000rtron photo. serviaes ®®®®m1®MEN ®® the ®®®mh EMI ®®®® EMI ®IMEI®ISE tan Iss C 'MAN CAMERAS 112 The Square, Goderich 524®7924 Sates • Service, Rentals . -, In addition, Sorbara said OSAP will ex- tend grant assistance to students attending degree -granting religious schools 'and ap- proved art schools. Until now, students at- tending institutions such as the Ontario Bi- ble College and the National Theatre School • - in Montreal, to cite just two examples, have been eligible only for loan assistance: Sorbara said much of the new funding will, be directed to increasing the grant assistance provided to students. - These changes td OSAP are consistent with the On- tario Government's policy of increasing ;ac- cessibility to -post-secondary institutions. This is the second substantial increase to the Ontario Student Assistance.
