J, SNOW - • - - President MRS. X B. RUSSELL - Secretary Mother’s Day and Family Sunday were commemorated at the Sunday morning service in Wingham United Church. A beautiful basket of spring flowers, in memory of Mrs. W. A. Campbell, the gift of her family, grac­ ed the front of the church. . Rev. D. J. MacRae spoke on the. subject, "Families that Pray Together, Stay Together,” basing his remarks on Job 1, 5, "And Job sent and sancti­ fied them and rose up early and of­ fered burnt offerings.” Job was the biggest ranch man in Palestine and had everything in his home except religion, so he sent and sanctified his children. He set up a family altar at a certain place where his family came and worshipped. God ordained that we should live in families so the home is the 'most important place in the world. Mr. MacRae said that in these days the home must -be - maintained and can be nurtured by regular wor­ ship, family grace at the table, Bible reading and prayer. An interesting part of the service was the gift of a Baldina camera to Jim Shynkar, the student minister from this church. Jim Hamilton made the presentation on behalf of the con­ gregation, and expressed the hope that it would prove useful to Jim as he leaves in a few days for his stud­ ent mission field at Deer Lake in Northern Ontario.
