It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None is so rich or mighty that he can get along without it, and none so poor but that he can be made rich by it. A smile creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in business, and is the counter-sign of friendship. It brings rest to the weary, cheer to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and it is nature's best antidote for trouble. It cannot be bought, begged, borrowed or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away.
Some people are too tired to give a smile.
Give them one of yours, as no one needs a smile so much as one who has no more to give. The mission of this publication is to educate, enlighten, and inform the Altar Guild of this Province and to serve as a vehicle of communication. Understanding that each parish is unique, the ideas and methods contained herein are presented as guidelines, only, to the parishes in order to establish a certain uniformity throughout the Province. The actual methods employed by the individual parish altar guild's will be dictated by the physical restrictions of their facilities and the instructions of their clergy. This publication is supported entirely by the free will love offerings of its readership.
