column last week on the little country church a lump came to my throat and tears to my eyes for like yourself i once attended such a church and it too is closed what a shame but like you pointed out no one is to blame but the people themselves if every family on our concession road had attended church with any regularity it would have been necessary to enlarge it rather than close it the same probably holds true on the 9th con cession of markham but no some went to one denomination some to an other and some didnt go at all pretty soon the minister was practically talking to himself i now attend a larger church in toronto but even here the attitude of members is lukewarm i call it a service centre for marriages baptisms and funerals oh for the return of the good old days where re ligion was preached and practised and where the church was not something to be used and abused mrs marguerite miller 19 sheppard avenue willowdale stocking i trout rtrnbow speckled komloops- write for
