Mrs. Alvin Yutzi and assistants Mrs. Elsie Kuepferand Mrs. Reta Wagler from the Tavistock area very ably lead the theme "Teach us to pray." Guidelines to prayer and meditation were discussed by the leader as well as par- ticipation by the groups. Public prayer is good, as well as in group, because we need fellowship and sharing but, special emphasis was made that in our busy life we must make time to pray. Also saying time and place are insignificant, hence, short and simple prayer too can be meaningful even while at our duties. Vital aspects will be con- fession, inner listening, specific requests and intercession. Guest Speaker for Lutheran Church Women Breaking of bread was a final and meaningful experience together as we shared with our guests at this retreat. The Lutheran Church Women held their regular meeting with 45 members and guests present. Miss Karen Steinbach played three selections on the piano. Mrs. T. Steinbach, Mrs. V. Dinnin and Mrs. G. Fleischauer led in devotions and introduced the guest speaker Miss Elaine Townshend. Miss Townshend chose as her topic Alpha Huron emphasizing that people and handicapped people, have much the same social and emotional needs. One of the goals of Alpha Huron is to make people aware of the needs of the permanently han- dicapped, the temporary han- dicapped and the elderly. Par- ticularly in the area of new construction of Public Building entrances, sidewalks, washrooms an telephones. Pastor Blackwell and the confirmation class also had the priviledge to listen to Miss Townshend's address. A light lunch was served followed by a short business meeting.
