Clinton News-Record, 1978-12-07, Page 14PAGE 14--CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 7 , 1978 Candy Stripers honored The second annual Candy -Stripers capping ceremony was held on Friday, December 1, in Wesley -Willis United Church. This ceremony, arranged by Mrs. Bar- bara Hicks and her committee of the Women's Auxiliary to the Clinton Public Hospital, honours the teenage girls who have given volunteer service to the hospital, and rewards those who have achieved various goals. After serving for 50 hours, the girls are presented with a cap and a special certificate, which are also presented after serving 100 hours. Five candy stripers have achieved this award. Two girls have served 200 hours and over and received a 200 hour certificate and a special Hospital Auxiliary Association Volunteer pin. Before the capping ceremony, the girls and their guests were welcomed by Rev. John Oestreicher and by Mrs. Margaret Coventry, Auxiliary president. Mrs. Barbara Hicks, co-ordinator for the program, paid tribute to the girls. She said, "In giving of their time in service to the hospital, they are getting as much as they are giving. The experience they get helps them develop their own personality and skills which are useful when entering the working world." Mrs. Hicks said that since May of 1977 when the program was begun, over 60 girls have served as candy stripers. All girls have progressed and made a success of the project. Special tribute was paid to two girls who had contributed over 200 hours of volunteer work - Linda Raithby and Lori Saundercock, both of Clinton. Both girls have accomplished much in other ways, as in high school work, 4-H programs, summer jobs, and church work and still found time for volunteer service at the hospital. Douglas Coventry, Hospital Administrator, speaking after the ceremony, expressed the appreciation of the staff 'and of the patients for the contribution the Candy - Stripers make. Beecher Menzies, chairman of the Hospital Board spoke of the volunteer work that had helped to establish our hospital, and over the years, had helped to keep its place in the com- munity. He said the service that these teenagers voluntarily, give bodes well for the future of the hospital. Interesting slides were shown of the girls at work with patients assisting them in many ways and also at work in many departments of the hospital. A pleasant social hour was enjoyed. This was arranged by members of the Auxiliary under the social convener, Mrs. Marnie Walden.

Christmas party set for nursery school The December meeting of the 'Clinton Early Childhood Education Centre, held on Monday night, Dec. 4 at the Wesley -Willis Church was called to order by president, Dorothy Boughen and various topics were discussed.

In upcoming events, January 20 was the date tentatively set for a bake sale and a spring variety show is also being planned in April. There will be more information on the variety show at a later date. It was also discussed that during the winter months when a storm does arise and it is necessary to cancel nursery school, mothers should listen to the radio for cancellation an- nouncements. It was noted that when the Clinton Public School classes are cancelled, the nursery school will also be cancelled. A report from nursery school teachers, Mrs. Sally and Mrs. Nancy said that the children have been busy learning about community helpers, Hallowe'en, Thanksgiving and the fall and winter seasons. A new dramatic play centre was introduced to the TRUTH Every believer is baptized by the Spirit into the body of Christ at the -moment of his salvation. I Corinthians 12:13 is the great central text on this subject. It says, "For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body---." The expression "we all" refers to all christians and should not be limited to any particular group of Christians. The Bible never urges anyone to be bap- tized by the Spirit; that takes place at conversion. He is urged, even commanded, to be filled by the Spirit. Ephesians 5:18. The belirver in Christ is placed into the body of Christ by Spirit baptism. This includes all true believers of this present age. The body of believers formed in this way is often mentioned in the New Testament, especially in the epistles of Paul to the Ephesians and the Colossians. The body formed in this way is directed by Christ and cared for and nurtured by -Christ. See Ephesians 5:29 and Colossians 2:19. Each believer as a member of the body of Christ is also given special gifts or functions in the body of Christ. See Ephesians 4:7-16. The body is "fitly framed together". Though the members differ, the body as a whole is well planned and organized.

This was so successful that Little Red Riding Hood and The Three, Little Pigs will receive equal attention in the New Year. The loan. of props or costumes for either play would be very much appreciated if anyone hadsomething they thought' might be suitable. Show and Tell classes will also be starting after Christmas and. they will be held on the last Tuesday and Thursday of each month. Now that winter is upon us, the children do need extra clothing, boots. etc., and the teachers suggest that it may be wise to mark all clothing articles with the child's name, just in case they get misplaced.
