A little car-pooling got everyone to St. James Presbyterian Church for the morning service led by Rev. Clair MacLeod. Early reports from the evaluation sheets indicate that Discovery Days was a very positive experience for everyone and many have already promised themselves to be at the next one. Special thanks to Ann Taylor and the Education Committee for all the preparatory work and prayer that led to the success of the weekend. Having participated in the discussions at Discovery Days and listening to and sharing experiences of AMS members and youth, I feel there is much hope, desire and challenge for change. I feel that, as Christians, each of us is 'freed to serve' and empowered by the Spirit for our service.
Opportunities present themselves to enhance the fellowship, worship and membership.
We ought to encourage each other and give lay people, young and old, a chance to follow the leading of the Spirit without hindrance. A catalogue of audio-visual resources is available on request. At the March meeting of the AMS Executive, it was decided to ask Presbyterials to accept ownership of this knitting project. In the future, rather that sending knitting to Toronto for dispersal, it will now be mailed directly from each Presbyterial or local auxiliary. Many addresses of mission partners will be found in the October issue of The Presbyterian Message.
