ALL JOY BE YOURS Churches throughout the world were spirit= ually united on Friday March 3, as millions of Christians gathered to observe the 45th annual World Day of Prayer. This annual event is un- der the auspices of the International Committee for the World Day of Prayer and is planned by women on both sides of the Iron Curtain. Each church in the 165 countries participating in the World Day of Prayer program, uses identical services, regardless of denominations. In Canada, more than 120 denominations take part in the service, titled, "All Joy Be Yours". St. Martin's of Tours hosted the World Day of Prayer in our community. Services were well attended by members of the Community Church and St. Martin's of Tours. Mrs. J. Schritt and Mrs. G. Ramsay welcomed the ladies with programs as they came into the church. Mrs. G. Dashk- ewytch was the leader and Mrs. S. Dampier was at the or- gan. Hymns chosen for the service were, "Here We Are, Joy is Like the Rain, Prayer of St. Francis, and They'll Know We Are Christians".
