The girls' en- semble sang "Oh, How He Loves You and Me" and Nancy Campbell sang "Could It 'B' That I Should Gain", accompanied by Anne Campbell. Rev. Paul Mills' sermon was entitled '°Blood Is the Magic Gift of Life". • A large attendance was present Sunday morning when joyous hymns were sung and Easter flowers adorned the sanctuary. The choir, under the leadership off Mrs. Mills, sang the an- thems, "Behold the Man" and "I Am the Resurrec- tion", the solo part taken by Mrs. Bruce MacDonald. The girls' ensemble sang "Jesus Christ Is Alive". Mr. Mills' sermon was entitled "A Miraculous Resurrection". He claims the difference between a Christian and all other faiths is a relationship with the living Lord. One is not a Christian until he knows Him; salvation is, found in no one else. The service created a joyous time to commemor- ate Christ's resurrection. Easter lilies add to morning worship BELGRAVE — A prelude -of piano and organ Easter selections was presented by Mrs. Howard Morton and Mrs. George Procter on Sun- day, morning at Knox United Church. Several Easter lilies in full bloom added to the inspir. ational celebration of the Lord's supper. The service was conducted by the Rev. John G. Roberts who based 'his remarks on Luke 24: 11, "And their words seem to them As idle tales and they believe them not". He said, "The disciples did not believe because they saw the empty tomb". Today we are in a similar situation. When Jesus says, "Follow Me", and we must answer, "Yea" or "Nay" — Risk all or deny our Master. The large choir rendered two anthems, "Then Came Easter - Morning" and "Christ Is Risen". Two members were re- ceived into the church: Mrs. Kenneth (Linda) Hopper by Profession of Faith and Mrs. Donald (Marlene) Procter, who transferred her certifi- cate to Belgrave church. The church was filled to capacity, many having come a distance to worship with parents and friends on the resurrection morn. BEST RATE 0 9 Days Special 1 0 lA ABC ANNUITIES LTD. 53 WEST ST.
