The minutes for January were read and signed. Marj Bradley gave a balance of our funds. This was seconded by Charlotte.

Notes of thanks were read from Mrs. Luella Halladay, Mrs. Vera McConnell, Mrs. Estie Moulton and Mrs. Meg Bugler. We voted to give Darrell Dean a present of money for his service as organist as long as he felt he could accomodate us. We discussed donations and purchases for our pancake and card party on Shrove Tuesday February 19th, at the Legion Hall in Seeley's Bay. A door prize will be drawn and card playing for those who want to stay. We are looking at patterns and embroidery work on vestâ€" ments for Father Bailey. Most churches do provide these to be left as property of the church. This was moved by Margaret and seconded by Charlotte.

Worship was led by Mrs. MacPherson using "John 19â€"30, Philippians 3-13-14 and John 1â€"5â€"10. Mrs. Millie McFadden presided at the piano. Mrs. Amy Bracken chose as her study topic "A U.C.W. member and her Christian calling." This provided much valuable material for prayer and thought for each to use in our daily lives. Correspondence included accounts of upcoming meetings,’ thankyou cards and messages from the two foster children. The card committee was requested to remember shutâ€"ins Mrs. Laura Galway, Mrs. Jessie Green and Mrs. Glenna Wills. Mrs. Frances Bryan gave each lady a "Blessing Can". She had Spent much time salvaging cans and covering them with reminders such as "He who helps a child helps humanity." If we are moved to drop in a coin each time we are aware of a special blessing in the day, this should boost the Mission Giving by the end of the year.
