of our chairman, Rev. Gerald
McFarlane. Members of the court
were welcomed to the village of
Teeswaterd
an the townshipof
Culross by George King .anRoy
Pennington, as well as being wel-
comed
elcomed to Teeswater church by their
Presbytery representative Lloyd
Siiiick The Divisions then met ro
discuss their respective business, to

ference, the Rev. Douglas Lapp,
and his wife Ethel were in attend-
ance.
ttendance. The worship period was led
by Rev. Lapp who used Philippians
2 as his text. Through our relation-
ship with Christ we should in
humility consider others better than
ourselves, looking not only to our
own interests, but also to the inter-
ests of otheis. Ouf attitude should
be like that of Christ Jesus, as
servant (in human lilkeness), and
obedient at all times, even to death.
We were encouraged to reflect
beyond the borders of Hamilton
Conference, to be more inclusive,
and .to recognize and offer support
to our neighbours through our
missions. The Rev. Lapp expressc
thanks to Bruce Presbytery for
taking initiative in creative ministry
(in particular, Queen's Bush Rural
Ministry), and he also commends
the St. Paul's and Five Oaks on
their joint campaign.
Rev. Lapp related his own faith
journey, noting that while God is
Always with ns; we keep .meath
Jesus Christ in different ways. After
the Holocaust he began to see
Christ in greater dimensions - the
emaciated Christ the suffering
Christ, an oppressed Christ.
"ugh all, we recognize Jesus is
alive and present, a very central
figure in'our worlq without Him we
are nothing.
The Annual Meeting of Queen's
Bush Rural Ministry (QBRM) took

work, noting the crisis in rural area

QBRM is to be commended for
their year-end financial situation. In

Connections, who are affiliated with
the Canadian Mental Health Associ-
ation, that arranges for workshops
and seminars to be held in the
Grey -Bruce area.

toral charge, noting the importance _
to experience ownership and part-
nership
