CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 26, 1985—Page 11 House seeks help By Doris Hunter Each of our churches is *asking for donations in support of the volunteer agency for battered wives and children in Huron County. Food, clothing, financial help and volunteers are all called for. It is incredible that this prosperous and kindly county should need 24 Safe Houses to shelter the victims of this so called enlightened 20th century need. Cruelty has always existed, but can you believe from only the 29th of April until today, women and children from 17 homes have needed help, five of the women were over 70 years of age. It is occurring here in our own backyard, so to speak. Friendship House is the place to call if you want to help. It is at 134 McDonald St. Goderich or phone 524-6245. There are boxes in the church of your choice for gifts of money or provender. Rotary meets In Bayfield Service Clubs abound in Canada, the first of these, was founded in Chicago in the early days of the Century. A group of men, thankful for their own good fortune met for luncheon to plan ways of helping others. It became Rotary International in short order and their good works with their many clubs are spread all over the world today. . Bayfield doers not have a Rotary Club, nevertheless we have 10 resident Rotarians, including the President Dave Gower, who belongs to the Goderich Club. As a pleasant gesture 40 members attended a meeting held in their honor at the Little Inn of Bayfield. Chef Richard had prepared a special menu, featuring of course the entree of Bayfield Fish. Former Reeve Ed Oddleifson addressed the gentlemen speaking on a subject very dear to his heart, the village of Bayfield and its History. People endure changing times By Bertha MacGregor HENSALL-Senior Citizens Sunday was observed at the Hensal United Church on June 23. Rev. Stan McDonald led the service and the theme of his sermon was The Tirne and The Timeless. He spoke on the things that have changed over the years and how different many things are now, compared to the days when our senior citizens were young people. He noted, "I'm sure that every senior here this morning will say that it is more difficult today than years back, The pressures of dai- ly life make such demands upon us in our persona, family and vocational lives that there is often very meager resemblence of Christ to be se€n in us. Instead we become anxious, troubled, perplexed and often as though God were dead." Rev. McDonald noted that people must continually remind themselves that "He en- dureth forever, that He will never leave us or forsake us." The morning congregation was greeted by Cecil Pepper. Scott McAllister, Scott Jesney, Bill Stebbins and Cecil Pepper were the ushers. The flowers at the front of the church were placed in memory of John MacLeod by his father and sister Launda; in memory of Lisa Darlene Merritt by her grandparents Carl and Hilda Payne; in memory of Miss Douglas, through Minnie Noakes from the Douglas Girls. The congregation was reminded that church services will be cancelled.on June 30. Everyone is encouraged to take part in the Tuckersmith Celebration Church Service, to be held in the Seaforth Community Centre. Anyone needing transportation should phone the church by noon Friday.
