MAUVE -- The joint' lay- serviceof Knox. and CalviriiBrick churches which -was held in Knox United Church, Belgrave, Nov. 20 had as its theme "Affirmation". At times our experiences spell doom, gloom and dire warnings but, the church should give posi- tive terms with a sense of well- being. The church should be an anchor, a harbor. Seven speakers of the con- gregations: George Procter, Mrs. John Gnay, Mrs. Clifton- Walsh, liftonWalsh, Howard Morton, Ronald McBurney, Mrs. Gilbert Beecroft and Mrs. Clifford Logan, related how their various vocations and experiences had drawn them closer to God. One member referred to the soil; no matter what happens the soil remains, so it is with the church. Many things change, new ideas are innovated, but we require something stable, something permanent on which to rely. If , anyone sees an opportunity in his or her work in, life to make an DIED".

One speaker related that the friendliness of the church people convinced him to be at "home" in the church. A pamphlet in a hos- pital waiting -room helped another person. "Don't look ahead, forget tomorrow, you are given strength to bear it; so be at peace", was the message. All agreed that we have been chosen as the vehicles for. pro- claiming God's love to the world. Affirmations are worthwhile and are needed by us. The church is our "home"; it's a part of us. Favorite hymns interspersed the service. The climax of the service was reached when the minister asked, "Has anyone anything else to say?" At this precise moment Ivan Dow of Calvin - Brick appraoched the altar and read the following address to the completely surprised Rev. Roberts. For 25 years you have been a minister of Christ's Church. Such a sustained period of commit- ment, witness and service pro- vides jilt cause for celebration. We earnestly desire to share your joy on Y t s occasion. We rejoice that you chose to heed God's call tope 'stry of the Word and Sac ments. We further rejoice that you responded in the af- firmative to what we like to think was God's Call to Canada. Be- cause of that "Yes", a certain ardent Welsh n iniater and his wife ` Kay joined our two con- gregations - in Huron and have continued in the relationship of pastor to the people for more than 11 years. These have been years rich in Christian fellowship fen us. Somehow, your profound un- derstanding of the Gospel and its implications for the life of man has caused us to hear the Good News as we haven't heard it before. Please God we respond ! ' We are deeply grateful for, the strength of your faith that the Holy Spirit is around, actiye in the affairs of our daily living ; for the deep empathy with which you share our lives, sometimes an- guished, sometimes joyous; for the humor with which you tickle our funny bone; for the craft excellence you demand of your- self and us; for a Welshman's innate love of music; for your sensitivity to people and events, local and world-wide; and for your loyalty to and trust in the Church. Allof these and more are deeply appreciated because they have helped us in so many ways words fail us to express. Thanks be to God! Hallelujah! And now here's to the next 25 years. In gratitude allow us to present a plaque in honor of this occasion when we celebrate 25 years of ordination for John Gratton Roberts.
