Financially, contribu- tions have been made ito assist in the upkeep of the local church as well as Presbytery jand Dominion wide organiza- Aux. Furthers Aims tions of the United Church in- cluding Missionary and Main- tenance Fund, the Deaconess Order, the Victor "Home for Girls, Camps Pretoria and Quin- mo-lac and the Presbytery WA Bursary Fund. Money raising projects to car- ry out these financial obliga- tions have included catering for dinners and weddings, teas, bazaars and so on: Special mention should be made of the third annual Feast of the Seven Tables, convened this year by Mrs. Frank Burrows. While raising funds and dis- bursing them properly are im- portant, more important still are the social and spiritual con- tacts. For example the many visits made by the ladies to thc sick in hospital and to the aged and infirm in their homes are a source of great benefit both tc the visitors and the visited.
