330 CANADIAN UNION MESSENGER Camp Meeting in Newfoundland — RAY A. MATTHEWS

It was a real Camp Meeting out in the beautiful setting of South West Pond. It seemed that the lake, trees, flowers, and the beautiful sunny weather added to the depth of the Christian experience of Camp Meeting in Newfoundland. Over and over our people expressed their appreciation of being able to have the Camp Meeting out in the out-of-doors setting. They kept emphasizing how wonderful the fellowship was with the min- isters and with one another. It was truly an "Adventure in Faith" to have the Camp Meeting at South West Pond. Up to this time it was always held in the St. John's Church, where as soon as the meeting was over, the people scattered everywhere to different places in the city, and those who came from the different communities of the Island had to go back to the schools to eat their sandwiches, or go to a restaurant. This time the folk truly enjoyed the good wholesome meals that were served at the Camp Meeting in the dining room, where a hundred people could be seated at one time to enjoy their meals.

Botwood to Have New Church

A new church is planned for Botwood. Land has been acquired from The Town Council of Botwood. It is on the top of a hill overlooking the whole countryside. When the church is erected it will be a prominent landmark in the community. The planning committee for the Botwood Church is planning a very fine edifice to the glory of God.

The Adventures in Faith offering will underwrite the spiritual thrust of the church for Christ. It will help three proj- ects plus the mission program. The call is for every member to participate as the Spirit of the Lord impresses. The basic objective is new work — new territory. The call is to go beyond the ordinary in order to expand God's work and penetrate whole new frontiers. Unentered sections of large cities, new cities and new languages are to be en- tered. The apparently impossible is to be accomplished. "Our people are not to wait for more appeals, but are to lay right hold of the work, making those things which appear impossibilities, possibilites.
