the people of Israel were poor and discouraged Mallchi one Essential 1T0 Thriving Church The spiritual frame of mind coupled with the enthusiasm of parishioners is essential to the productivity and activity of any church thinks St Georges An glican minister Rev Dyer And the building program now under way at his church is he says direct result of the state of mindof his Allandaie parish loners As the sounds of the workmen completing the renovations to the church and additions to his l1ren Malachi points out how the people of Israel have sinned but he particuth rebuke the prlests who led the people astray by their practices Ye have westled the Lord with your words Yet ye say Whereia have we wenrled him When ye say every one that doeth evil is goodlntheslghtntlrelmdnnd He delightelh in

commented its very encouraging the way the spiritual attitude of the people is improving and that is the mostJmportant thing When the people have that things start tohappetlfln The building program which will cost $15000 will be corn plete in two or three weeks It Itarkdlate in July Mr Dyer says the growth of the parish now ovor 600 strong warranted the addition to the church There is athreeroom addition to his own rectory on Granville stret and there will bea new basement in the rec tory where small church meetv ings and Bible classes can take the load off the shoulders of the church hall The church hall will be used for larger meetings CHURCH ADDITIONS The church itself has been cleaned relurniturcd redecor ated and generally improved new floor has been put in and ministers office choir room and an auxiliary room have been built The rate money is coming in is very encouraging says Mr Dyer and largely consists of gifts To help raise money wo men members of the church per formed cateringduties at van ous functions and the Brother hood ot Anglican churchmen held an auction sale at Barrie Fair Grounds But although this is the big gest development since he has been here and the financial and material sides of affairs are well taken care of the min ister attributes the success of his church mainly to the spir itually advanced attitude of his parishioners Mr Dyer thinks it is one of the most friendly parishes priest could work in and he and his wife enjoy their charge to great degree There is strong tendency he thinks for people these days to seek some spiritual strength and there is great leaning to wards the char TWQWAY PROCESS It is twoway process Miti lsters in the church itself are taking more active interest ennervating their approach and the general public are no longer hiding their religion but coming out and talking about it taking armoreeverytlay sensibleap proach to it Most troportant says be they are realizing the need for spiritual life and ceasing to base their lives on things mat erial The men of the parish for in stance get together and discuss religion the Bible and other niactms of the church few years ago adds Mr Dyes it would have been very hard to get members to do this Evangelismth had lotto ddwith it thinks the minister but the main thing is peopieure enjoying going Ito church There is the percentage who have church and Mr Dyer does

chandhlsownex perlenee as vocationalin tbé extreme lie was born in Peterborough where he was educated and for 16 years workedln the perlwo nel department oi large car pet factory He then operated store with his wile for one ther two years and ltwas not until his second year in the store he decided to go into the ministry It was 1964 and Mr Dyerwas 33 years old when he entered Wycliffe College Toronto To some it may seem late start but just one year at coll ege had passed when he was sent to his first charge at Creev morea parish he says he was very reluctant to leave His experience with people at the store and at the factory everyone from the president to the Janitors was invaluable to him when he tumed to the church it was because of this experi ence he was allowed so short time in college But for time alter he hadleit Wycliffe and while he was at his first post Mr Dyer had to continue with his studies For five years helore his en try into the church Dr Dyer had been lay reader His first post at Creemore bore out what he says about the progression of the Anglican Church While he was there the parish hall was builtanother step forward in the church which was result of the enthusiasm of the parish luners Too many people think you start in the wintry and then work up to city posting he says but nothing could be that from the tru Different types do just as much good in their respective places and while one is suited to city work and can do lot of good in rustic community thereis the same 9Ppartunity You can get to know your parishioners individuallyand so much better see many of thern every day and each of therr lives and labs is as im lt is certainly privilege says Mr Dyrrlooking back on his live full years in the minis try to be able to serve people in this way and it is certainly wonderful example of being directed into Gods wmk But be addsyeach person whatever his job can do as much forthe church as therin iueras long as his spiritual life and attitude are successful pen to The Lord said of him But who may abide the day at his coming And who shall stand when he appeareth for he is like refiners fire and lie Iullcrs soap And he shall sit as re finer and purifier of silver and heslrailpurifythesonsoflevi and purge them as gold and sily ver that they may offer onto the lord an offering in righteousness Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the lord as in the days of old and as in former yenrsMah achi 14 Quoting from Dr Smith we are told ofsnrneofthe priests mills for which Malachi rebuked They brought to the altar for sacrifice animals that were torn lame or sick that is animals which they could not sell in the market in other words they gave God that which they othewise would have no use for and there by In their very worship placed their own welfare first and glory to God second or third Today do not many of us spend our money for luxuries when we purchase clotha and gasoline to run our automobiles
