Wesley -Willis UCW
Celebrate 50th year
A special birthday
party was held Tuesday,
May 15, when the Wesley -
Willis UCW celebrated
the 50th anniversary of
the present church
building.
After pictures were
taken of those who
belonged to the church 50
years ago, many of these
ladies served birthday
cake and ice cream to the
other guests.
Mrs. William Hearn
and Mrs. Harold Wise
tested memories by
playing ten songs popular
between 1928 and 1929 and
asking the guests to
identify them.
Mrs. Greta Nediger
introduced the skit,
Fiction, Fact and
Fashions of 1929. Grannie
Willis, Aileen Craig,
showed the guests
Grandpa Wesley s photo
album after soundly
chastizing those who
dared to come without a
hat!
The songs,
"Memories" and
"Church is Burning" set
the stage for the
album scenes that
followed. Most of the
fashions modelled were
actual gowns of that
period lent for this oc-
cassion by ladies of the
church.
Between amusing
"snap shots" from the
album such as the
quilting bee, the Sunday
School Picnic and the
choir practice, all present
joined pianists Miss
Cathy Potter and Mrs.
Harold Wise in singing
Summerhill Ladies
led by Mrs. Hearn.
"There Are Smiles",
"Tiptoe Through the
Tulips", "I'll Be Loving
You" and "Apple
blossom Time" helped
transport the audience
back half a century.
Whether the scenes
were indeed fact or fic-
tion, the audience
thoroughly enjoyed them.
"As sure as the sparks fly
upwards" they will be
chuckling over the antics
of dear little Angie, the
euchre players, the ld'ne
bather and all the others,
for many'days to come.
Mrs. Ken Wood, con-
venor of the UCW bir-
thday celebrations,
thanked all who came
and especially those who
had donated treasured
dresses for the evening.
Hold plant auction
The May meeting of the
Summerhill club was
held at Jean Vodden1
home with 20 members
answering the roll call by
contributing plants for
the plant auction. Sandra
Westerhout opened the
meeting by reading a
poem, "Lessons".
Thank yous were
received from Vera
Gibbings, the Clinton
Fair Board and the
Rapson family. Several
members volunteered • to
canvass their area for the
Seeds of Rope campaign.
Donations were sent to
the Bunny Bundle Fund,
the Children's Aid, and
the Clinton Hospital
Auxiliary.
Sandra Westerhout
presented Ida Wright
with an engraved silver
spoon to commemorate
the occasion of her
becoming an honourary
member of the club.
The next meeting will
be held at Sue Vodden's
on June 13 at 8:30 p.m.
The roll call is to be
answered by naming a
trip you've always
dreamed about. Edith
Wright, Jane Van
Spengen and Donna
Tyndall will be in charge
of lunch and program.
Margaret Wright
conducted a contest on
similes which was won by
Gladys Van Egmond and
Ida Wright • gave a
reading entitled, "Pa's
Restful Day" and Sandra
Westerhout showed slides
taken on their .winter
holiday. The Queen and
Grace were sung and a
delicious lunch was
served.
Sue Vodden acted as a
very 'capable auctioneer
to auction off the many
lovely plants.
Beverley Lynn Bourrie, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
John Bourrie of Sarnia and Robert Charles Lep-
pington, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Leppington of
Bayfield were united in marriage on May 5, 1979 at
St. Luke's Church In -Sarnia. The young couple have
taken up residence in Hensall.
WI annual meeting

A very special guest
speaker will be featured

Church, May 28.
That speaker is Helen
Allen, the originator of

newspaper feature that

155 weekly newspapers

It was just like the old days when members of the
Wesley -Willis UCW recollected the old quilting bee
in a special skit at the group's 50th anniversary
celebration last week. Working the needles and
keeping the gossip in top form were Kay Wise, Ruth
Bond and Norma Grigg. (Jervis Studio photo)

TRUTH
Sin is not only doing wrong things, but also failing to
do right things.
Sin is so often minimized today. People don't want to
admit that it exists. Wrongdoing is coiled a mistake.
Television, movies and paper back books condone im-
morality and belittle purity. Dishonest business deals
abound.
Paul said that such things as immorality, Idolatry,
envy, murder, lust, drunkenness, slander and etc. have
no place in the kingdom of God. See I Corinthians 6:9 &
10.
How can we avoid sin? Sin is everywhere. First we
need forgiveness for our sins. All of our sins need to be
forgiven, not by doing good or being good, but by
God's grace -and love offered to us if we accept Christ
by faith. Ephesians 2:8, 9.
How can we avoid sins after having received Christ by
faith? Christ is the answer. A blind person had lust
been assigned a seeing -eye dog. The Instructor said.
"Walk a little closer to your dog—he knows where you
should go. All your have to do is follow him."
Sin con be avoided by living close to the Lord Jesus
Christ and obeying His Word, the Bible. "Sin will keep
you away from the Bible or the Bible will keep you
away from sin."
