An Extended Learning Pro- gram for the gifted students in the County has been in- itiated by our Board. This year a pilot program is star- ting in eight schools and Biddulph-Lucas Central is fortunate to be one of these chosen schools. It includes only grades 3 and 4 students this year and parents of those students have received a survey letter from us. The program is expected to begin in the spring. A film on "Human Growth and Development" was shown to the parents of grades 6,7 and 8 students January 23. It will then be shown to all the pupils in late January or February. Parents have shown great in- terest in being able to see some of the films shown to the students on the topic of Sei Education before being shown to the various classes. A Spring Workshop series for parents has been arrang- ed for three evenings in March when our school psychologist, Dr. Frank Col- man, will speak on the topic of discipline. This is a workshop format type of evening which Dr. Col- man has done at various other schools to audiences of up to 40 to 50 parents. This workshop is designed to deal with the needs of parents and views on dealing with young people today. Those who at- tend will also discuss pro- blems common to most parents.

Sons Kevin and Kyle helped their parents receive the offering later in the service. Beth Cowdrey told the children a story called "The Best Thing in the World." Amy, Bert and James, along with their father decided that the very best thing is the forgiveness of sins that Jesus gives. Beth with Junior helpers then took the children out for Junior Congregation. The Choir's anthem spoke of God's promise to "heal our land" if we, God's people, humble ourselves and pray and seek His face. In his message Mr. Brown pointed out that the Church season between Christmas and Easter is called Epiphany, a time when we emphasize the Light that Christ has brought to the world, and consider ways in which to spread that light to all men. The promise of Light came through Isaiah the prophet who assured God's people in a time of great darkness that the Light of God would shine upon them. Paul spoke of this Light that came to us in Jesus as a unifying Light. We need to allow Him to unite us as the Body of Christ, so that we may love one another, and minister to one another through the gifts that He has given to each one. The current Ventures in Mission program in the United Church is one way in which we can respond to that challenge. Following the service, members enjoyed a pot luck lunch, and then participated in the annual business meeting of the congregation. Nomination committee recommendations for ap- pointments to the various boards and committees of the 4ongregation were accepted, and other annual business dealt with.

"Jesus Gives Life to Women" was the theme for the meeting. Donna showed a number of "imaginary" slides which illustrated the limitations placed on women of Jesus' day. Small Buzz groups considered Jesus' at- titude to women as seen in several Bible passages, and concluded that He viewed women as equals with men, healing them, befriending them, and breaking taboos of the day in order to do so. The study concluded with a modern day case study about the dilemma faced by a "liberated" woman and her husband.
