•A large number of Varna
and Goshen United Church
members met at Stanley
Township Park for a church
service and picnic on Sunday,
June 19th. The weather was
beautiful and the lake
location added inspiration to
the service, which was
conducted by Rev. Taylor.
Julie and Jill Armstrong
sang duets, and Julie played
the guitar and accompanied
the hymns "Amazing Grace"
and "He's Got the Whole
World in His Hands". Ron
Fleming also sang and played
guitar and was much enjoyed
by all.
After the service, a picnic
lunch was served. A program
of races for the children was
held with the following
winners: 4 and under, David
Hayter; 5 and 6, Shelley
Hayter, Greg Taylor, Scott
Kirton; 7 to 9, Tracey Hayter,
Becky McKinley, Lorelie
Robinson and Lori Consitt; 9
to 12, Kim Hayter, Lisa
Robinson, Laura Roy; 12 and
up, Bonnie Dowson, Brenda
Dowson, Jacquie Taylor;
Wheelbarrow race, Lori
Consitt and Jacquie Taylor,
Kim and Tracy Hayter,
Steven Taylor and Jamie
Tipping. A candy scramble
was enjoyed by the children.
Judging by the favourable
comments made after the
service and picnic, I am sure
this will be an annual af-
fair.—by Joyce Dowson.

$238.63 monthly, or a total of
$477.26 for the couple.
