NE$ VIRE.,; `'..!!X17 l$$5 - Two ;("ries on the change BEI.G VB ---The finalservice arc Unity MOM, ,Church was' hold on Sunday, May 7, with the rector,. Rev. Vicars Hodge, in charge, Many friends, as well as the An- glican clergy from the deanery were in attendance. The scripture` lessons were read by Glen Van Camp, Colleen. Madge and Rev. Keith Stokes, a former rector of . Blyth, Brussels and Belgrave par- ish. The bishop of Georgian Bay, the Right Rev. Robert Townshend, was present to de -consecrate the build- ing and led in the communion ser- vice. Clare Van Camp and Jean Neth- ery spoke on behalf of the congre- gation, giving reflections on the history of the Church and families which attended over the years. The. responsive prayers of the people were led by Nancy Jardin. During the singing of the last hymn, the altar and sanctuary fur- nishings were carried from the church building to be placed in the Trinity chapel of St. Paul's Church, Wingham. The members of the congrega- tion proceeded to Wingham where they gathered on the lawn, at which time Bishop Townshend unveiled the new sign which , reads, "St. Paul's -Trinity", thus completing the amalgamation of the two Churches. • Everyone entered the church singing the final verses of the same hymn they sang as they left Trinity. The homily was given by Bishop • Townshend and after the commun- ion service was completed, a • pot- luck meal was enjoyed by all in the parish hall. The service of Thanksgiving and amalgamation was the final act in a lengthy process of discussion and prayer by the people of Trinity Church. The building holds many cherished memories and the sense of loss will be felt for some time by those whose families have wor- shipped there for many generations. Churches a•malgamate...St. Paul's Anglican Church, Wingham, and Trinity Anglican Church, Belgrave, amalgamated in a special service on May 7 conducted by Bishop Robert Townsend, righty and Rev. Vicars Hodge, rector of St. Paul's and Trinity. The new charge is known as St. Paul's -Trinity. The change is reflected in the new sign unveiled May 7. Era ends for Trinity An era came to an end earlier nionth' when the doors of Trinity Anglican Church, Belgrave, closed and the 130 -year-old congregation amalgamated with St. Paul's Angli- can Church here in Wingham. The new charge will be known •as St. Paul's -Trinity and the change is' the culmination of two years of soul searching and discussion by parishioners of Trinity. Over the years, the congregation, at Trinity Church had dwindled to a handful of devout worshippers, many descended from the pioneer families of Morris and Eltst Wawa - nosh ,townships, says ReV. Vicars Hodge, rector of St. Paul's and Trinity churches. • About"'two years ago, members of the congregation sat down and discussed the reality that- was be- fore them: membership was down, yet expenses remained constant. The time had come to make a deci- " sion. Rev. Hodge said the members of Trinity were few- in number, but deeply -committed Christian people. They could . have continued on, postponing a decision, but they re- alized that a Church which cannot do mission work, cannot fulfill its purpose. So, the decision to close Trinity was made. It is a sad thing when a Church closes, said Rev. Hodge and his role in the past two weeks has been ministering to the former parishion- ers of Trinity, making sure that no one "falls .through the cracks" and that everyone. has a new Church home. Thecongregation of St. Paul's has opened its arms to wel- come the Trinity families, but Rev. Hodge says some people may choose to go to Blyth, Brussels or even to an established Belgrave Church. On Sunday, May 7, the Right Rev. Bishop Robert Townshend, bishop of Huron, conducted the de - consecration service at Trinity be- fore the group proceeded to Wing - ham to dedicate the new charge of St. Paul's -Trinity. The altar and font, articles used for the sacraments, were removed from Trinity and transported here to Wingham as well. Following the service, a time of fellowship was held. Rev. Hodge likens the amalga ma0,9n of the two Churches to a marrf ge. It is time to, look forward in the life of the Church. The evening, o' May $' marked the anal night of play for Wingham Hospital Bridge and was held at the Masonic Lod$e mins „ in Wing- ham. .. The evening commenced with dessert served by hospital auxiliary members Dianne Dolittle, Marion MacKenzie, Myrla Frank, Hilda Brown and Mat lene Leedham.
