Last year Scugog Church budgeted for $4500.00. They are doing the same those in charge of the campaign are greatly encouraged. On Wednesday afternoon, the High School Pupils of the Island will meet for Bible Study and Discussion. The study book is entitled "LIFE AND DEATH" and is the latest product on Biblical Interpretation by our Church. But the Group will discuss any topic that is of importance to them, and that bears on the living of the good and acceptable life. All High School Students then are welcomed, and the more questions you have, the more you will be welcomed. We learn best by discussion, and not so much by lec- tures. For the Church has really no- thing to hide and cover up. The Church firmly believes that she has found TRUTH in Jesus Christ. There are many details of God's plans for us which we may not know. Why pretend then that we do know them? Surely there must be some surprises in the future for the children of God! So all of us are "Agnostics" in some things. We just do not know. And then on Wednesday evening Scugog "Head" W.A. will meet, and Scugog might be had in readiness for next come and find help and strength in your endeavour to live the abundant life. ' [------N By Mary Becker At their regular meeting, held at the home of Mrs. C. Boyd last Monday. night, the Evening Guild heard a financial report on the recent bazaar. It was decided to use $150.00 towards needed painting in the parish hall. Permission of the Board of Manage- ment will be sought for this project. Remainder of the bazaar proceeds will be used for purchase of dishes for the Church, and to assist the Church School. The Guild Christmas Party will be held at the home of Miss M, Jarrett on Wednesday, Dec. 13th. The Church School Teacher's Group met last week, and, after the opening prayer and reading of the minutes of the last meeting, a number of decisions were made with regard to the Christ- mas service and parties, A change in gouping for parties was made. Those children up to and including 6 years of age will attend the "Birthday party for Jesus", on Friday, Dec. 15 from 3:30 to 5 p.m; those 7 to 9 years of age will have their party on Saturday, Dec---16-from 2 to 4 pm, and the 10, 11 and 12 night, (Thursday) to plan their Christ- mas party, The Teenage Discusion Group is also planning a party. COMPASSIONATE UNDERSTANDING I'm an old cynic, leery of do-good- ers, inclined to go along with the philosopher Emerson, who said that the worst of charity is that the lives you are asked to preserve are not worth preserving; but there is a work woing on in Manitoba which I believe merits financial support. This work is being done at The Harbour Light Centre in Winnipeg's skid row, for the rehabilitation of aleoholies. It is run by The Salva- tion Army with most of the counsel- ling done by men who were them- selves afflicted with alcoholism but found a way out. -- ~ There the alcoholic who wants to find n new life is given compassion.' ate understanding, physical and men- tal health treatment, and finally--and most effectively--spiritual help. I talked to the little doctor who goes there to work for free, a dedicated man who is no doubt neglecting his own practice to do this service, but is. getting rewards of another kind --a deep sense of spiritual satisfaction few ever experience.

We are all in- debted to Annie Toombs for the trans- formation that takes place -in the Church Basement. Of course, there are many other willing hands to help. Special efforts are made to have all the-elderly--Ladies- of -the -community- attend, and also many of the children. Last year there was an uninvited Christmas tree and looked out in won- der at all the lovely things displayed on the table. Not very much notice was taken of the little visitor, not that we were so much afraid: of frightening it away, but rather of cauging a commotion amongst the adults. Needless to say, the little guest who climbed to the top of the] groups are planning the party activ- ities, and will be in touch with a number of the mothers for assistance. The annual White Gift service will take place at 2:30 p.m. on Dec, 17th, when all the children are asked to come and bring gifts of tinned or Williams, and it is expected that Mrs. S. Bruton will be in charge of the food baskets afterward. There will be a service of Holy Baptism in the Church of the Ascen- sion this Sunday at 11:30 a.m. Last Sunday we had an interesting guest speaker in the person of Ren David Busby, Diocesan Director of Chrh Edueation. Another guest in our parish will be Rev. Norman Greene, who will address our morning service on Dec. 17th, and will also meet with our teenagers at a youth rally at 4 p.m. that day. Slides will be shown and refreshments served. The Young People's group will act as hosts and hostesses that afternoon.
