The January meeting of the W.M.S.
of Knox Presbyterian church was held
in the church with Mrs. J. C. McBur-
ney presiding. Mrs. Allan Dunbar read
the Scripture and Mrs. O. G. Ander
son led in prayer. Mrs. Bruce reported
on the highlights of the past year's
activities and also presented the min
utes of the last meeting. Mrs Ken
Scott gave the treasurer's report.
Miss Agnes Mason started this
year's study of the life and work of
an individual missionary by giving an
interesting account of the activities
of Miss Margaret Kennedy, an evan
gelist of India. Each member of the
auxiliary has chosen a missionary for
special study for 1954. This is proving
to be an excellent educational feature
of the W.M.S. meetings.
The topic of the day was taken by
Mrs. McBurney and consisted of a
summary of the impressions of Can
ada as expressed by miSsibharles who
have recently been on furlough in
our country. Missionary work in Can
ada can learn much from these im
pressions.
Knox W.M.S. lost Valued members in
the past year in the persons of Mrs.
J, Leitch and Mrs. A. Scott, who mov
ed to new homes and Mrs. Wm. Ged
des, a life member, “who passed away
last May, While deeply regretting
these losses, the Auxiliary can look
back upon a year of satisfactory ach
ievement and Can find much encour
agement to continue by prayer and
contributions, in the great missionary
effort still so necessary today to ful
fil our Lord’s command—“Go ye ihto
all the world and preach the gospel to
every creature."
