Moir hosts meeting GORRIE—Mrs. Gordon Moir hosted the meeting of the Women's Missionary Society of Knox Presbyterian Church. Mrs. James Robinson opened the meeting with the poem, "Three Gates" and a meditation entitled "Open My Eyes". All joined in singing a hymn and Mrs. Robinson led in prayer. The roll call was answered with a verse of scripture about the poor and nine visits were reported. A donation was sent to the 75th Anniversary Travel Fund. Mrs. Alvin Mundell reported on the annual meeting of Maitland Presbyterial. In response to a letter from the Fordwich Village Nursing Home, it was agreed that Mrs. Robinson should telephone to see if July 12 is a suitable date to visit there. The hymn, "Open My Eyes", fittingly introduced the study, "Keeping Covenant with the Poor". The meaning of the word, "covenant", was explored, with many examples from the books of the law: Exodus, Leviticus and Deuteronomy. God blesses His people; in return He Asks for their obedience, trust and faith. Two historical passages were studied which record the treatment of the poor. In Jeremiah 34, where the covenant is broken, war, disease and famine result. When the people do as they had promised in Nehemiah 5, the Israelites are liberated from oppression and suffering, liberated for community and mutual responsibility. The meeting closed with a hymn and prayer by Mrs. David Lockie. A time of fellowship concluded a profitable evening of Bible study. WOMEN? DEMAND VOTE!
