These mark the theme of the Presbyterian Church in Canada as it celebrates 100 years as an affiliation and serving organization. Remembrance is made easy for her people as they delve into the history of their church and re- live again the rich heritage that is theirs. They believe that "we trust hilve an appreciation of the past in order to determine the direction that the church should take in the future." Renewal, as it applies to the present, is the building of a new MAMA GOAT and little kid conspire to free the rest of her children from the stomach of the bad wolf in the Turnberry Central grade two play Thursday. relationship with God through Jesus Christ. This is the time for the church to be "renewed and stimulated as its members seek to gain a deeper understanding of what we profess to believe." Response is the result of what is discovered in this new relation- ship. It is faith in action, a re- newed commitment to do the tTiings that need to be done, now and in the future. And so, as its 100th birthday theme, the church has chosen Re- membrance, Renewal, Response, in the hope that a past and a pres- ent faith will unite to make a meaningful future. 0-0-0 'For one century, the Presby- terian Church has been part of the body of Christ in this nation. The Burning Bush,. burning yet not being consumed, is the church's symbol. It is a reminder that God stands ready to guide, as He did with Moses and the children of Israel. The flame is the manifestation of God's pres- ence, the church is the chann through which we ray'respon vto God's call. The hope of the people who planned many of the year's activities is that the Presbyterian Church in Canada will gain a fresh sense of its rich heritage and become aware of its place in the whole Body of Christ in the challenge of tomorrow. 0-0-0 As their own centennial pro- jects, congregations throughout the country are involved in sever- al different activities. In the local St. Andrew's Church, all groups within the church have been part of the celebrations. In June of last year, the new centennial sign was plac- ed in front of the church and dedi- cated. In September, the Sunday School participated in a Rally Day service and donned old-fash- ioned costumes for a centennial picnic. In October, Dr. David Perrie of Orillia was the guest speaker at anniversary services held in the church. Dr. Mariano DiGangi conducted a Bible mis- sion in November and in Janu- ary, the church made a birthday gift to missions to commemorate its special year. Upcoming events include Len- ten services which are being held every Sunday evening for six weeks and will discuss the history of the church.

Open to anyone in Can- ada, the competition was divided into three classes-- — children, youth, and an open class. The work was to be of original design and based on the centennial theme, Remembrance, Renewal, Response. Designs, executed by any means, could be varied and could portray any scene that would provide inspiration and en- richment for viewers. Any textile or combination of textiles, na- tural or synthetic, could be used and other substances incorporat- e Housewi ed to achieve effect. The 300 banners entered in the competition were judged by a panel of three last June, Dr. T. A. Heinrich, professor of Art of York University, Kay Krltzwiaer, `` art critic, Toronto Globe and Mail, and Nancy -Lou Patterson, pro- fessor of art at the University of Waterloo. In order to give as many people as possible the op- portunity of seeing these tan- ners, five exhibits have been as- sembled and made available to churches and group Such an ex- hibit will be presented at St. An- drew's on February 25 and 27, 2 to 4 p.m. and 7 to 9 p.m. and on March 1 and 2, 2 to 4 p.m. and the public is cordially invited to at- tend and view these banners.
