United Methodist church members have been busy The United Methodist women met at the church last Tuesday in a “Call to Prayer and Self Denial” with Mrs. John Weeks in charge of the meeting. A musical litany, musical recording and scripture reading was provided for the opening portion of the program with the over-all theme being “Our Life Together — A Pilgrimage.” The theme was divided into three parts. Part I, “the past,” consisted of a discussion of the history and heritage. Mrs. Richard Snoke told the story of Deborah from the Bible; Mrs. Robert Ritchie spoke on Sojourner Truth; Mrs. Dan Watson discussed Isabella’ thoburn; Mrs. Howard Locke spoke about the three sisters-in-law, Elizabeth Blackwell, Lucy Stone and Antoinette Brown; and Mrs. Don Fightmaster told about Mary McLeod Bethune. These discussions explained how the lives and work of these women of the past have provided a rich heritage for those who follow. In the second part of the program, “the present,” Mrs. James Athens shared ideas of desirable qualities in people the ladies have met that meant a lot in their lives and provided for individual reflection of inner qualities. This was followed by the song, “I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel to be Free” and an announcement that offerings will be taken at the February circle meetings. These offerings will be used for women missionaries at home and abroad. Part three, “the future,” allowed for a time of silent meditation after which a prayer circle was formed with members voluntarily offering prayers for the future. ENROLLED IN LAY COURSE Rev. John Weeks announced seven members of the church are enrolled in the Lay Speakers course which will be held in North Webster. Stuart Walker is coordinator of the Elkhart district’s lay witness program. Those enrolled are Chuck Scott, Lee Gray, Mrs. James Athens, Ron Richey, Dave Stookey, Mrs. Stuart Walker and Alvin Walker.
