Prayer which had previously

Merrill Fisher. Mrs. William
Bennett led a very in-
teresting devotional period.

' Time to Spend' is the
themefor unit meeting
BELGRAVE — The After-
noon Unit of the United
Church Women met at the
home of Mrs. Jesse Wheeler
on Monday, Jan. 12, with 11
adults and two children pre-
sent.
The meeting opened with a
worship service conducted
by Mrs. William Black and
Mrs. Leslie Bolt. The central
theme' for worship was we
.are responsible for the ways
we spend our time.
Mrs. Black read the poem,
'Seeing the Best', by
Patience Strong. The hymn
'Creations Lord' was sung
and Psalm 89 was read in
unison.
Mrs. Bolt took "Time to
Spend" for her meditation.
She stated that the new year
gives us a chance to begin a-
gain, to bury our ills, aliun-
forgiveness, petty grudges
and unkindness. It is a tithe
to fix our thoughts on true
- and lovely things, praise God
and be glad. Prayer closed
the meditation.
Mrs. Cecil Coultes con-
ducted a short quiz on hus-
bands and wives of the Bible.
She then continued with the
Bible study.
"Have you set a goal in-
dividually or as a group?"
she asked. To arrive at a
goal required plans and pre-
paration whether that goal
be tangible, spiritual or both
interwined.
Jesus' goal was to leave
his disciples prepared to
carry on the gospel. He says,
"What you get depends on
what you give". The person
who prepares the worship
service gets most from it.
Thank God for blessings.
Pray alone, then pray
together' We are all disciples
of Jesus. A hymn was sung.
Mrs. Walter Scott chose,
'Partners in crises, justice
and mission' as the subject
for mission study. She dealth
pritnarily with ministering
