Thirty -me sjoin_church in service at Knox United BELGRAVE = A capacity congregation assembled in Belgrave Knox United Church on Sunday morning for the confirmation and communion service conduct- ed by Rev. John G. Roberts. The scripture lesson . was read from the book of Acts, chapters 1 and 2, concluding with, "And every day the Lord added to their group those who were being saved." Rev. Roberts stated, "This is a special day for the whole church." Parents may ques- tion faith, he said, but to have 10 of the youth in addi- tion to 20 adults join the church is proof of things worthwhile. The young people who were being confirmed were not present at church through the influence of the minister, parents or Sunday School teachers, he said, but through the co-ordination of all mentioned. "Today these young people begin something, a life-long pilgrimage. They may never know all the answers, but are beginning to learn what faith is all about." The order of confirmation as presented in the service book was used to receive: Kerry Ann Pletch, Alison Audrey Coultes, Christopher Robert Michie, Corey Doug- las McKee, Ruth Anne Hig- gins, Paul Robert Coultes, Steven Taylor Coultes, Glen Jeffrey Hunter, Heather Elizabeth McIntosh and Christopher Donald McIn- tosh into the church mem- bership. The adults who joined the church were: Danny McBurney, Mr. and rs. Glen Walker, Mr. and Mrs. Brian Film on childbirth scheduled for Clinton A film and discussion on current obstetrical routines and alternatives for parents will be held next Wednesday at the Wesley -Willis United Church in Clinton.

Interwoven with their search and actual ex- perience are the comments, opinions and advice of medi- cal professionals. The film emphasizes the parents' responsibility in becoming knowledgeable about childbirth and able to choose the type of ex- perience they desire. The presentation is open to the public and a discussion period will follow. tires.• The film is presented by For more information, Parents for -- -P-osit.ive anyone interested is invited Beginnings a commitee o -Debbie aelldrk-a-t-529- the Huron County group, 7291. Women Today. The com- mittee was started 'early last year as a result of some local women's interest in changing childbirth trends and dissatisfaction with their own experiences. Huron County d'octors were surveyed on their general obstetrical routines and as a result the group was asked to provide suggestions for improvements to these routines and submit them to local hospitals. The committee's im- mediate goals are to in- crease awareness of current obstetrical trends and the alternatives available, and to act as a resource and support group for concerned parents. The group stresses that it does not advocate any particular method of child- birth, though at times it may present controversial mater- ial regarding current prac- Potter, Mrs. Douglas Walker, Mr. and Mrs. John McCracken, Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Vincent, Mr. and Mrs. Cameron Cook, Michael Cot- trill, Mrs. Clarence Yuill, Mrs. John Campbell, Mr. and Mrs. James Keller, Mr. and Mrs. Jeffrey Hurst and Mrs. Grant Vincent.
