Volume XXXIX, No. 9 Oshawa, Ontario April 20, 1970 Oak Park Church Helped by All Sister Churches In The Maritimes

J. W. WILSON, President, Maritime Conference

Recently all of the churches here in the Maritimes pledged their Sabbath church offerings to the Oak Park Church. The church members down there have begun a well-defined plan to build a youth centre to meet the needs of expanded youth activities. On the occasion of the 34th Biennial Session of the Maritime Conference, the Oak Park delegates along with their pastor D. L. Johnson, were the recipients of the money which came in from all our churches to our conference treasurer. Inasmuch as the membership is small in Oak Park this will be of real tangible assistance to their programme. You will also notice the letter of thanks which comes from their local elder. Left to right — Brother Lawrence Wagner, J. W. Wilson, Mrs. L. Wagner, Pastor D. Johnson, Sister R. Atwood, Brother Ralph Atwood and Brother "a/ David Gay. Brother Wagner is holding the cheque which was given to him on behalf of all the churches in the Maritime Conference in response to the first local church extension offering for Maritime projects.

by JOYCE SALT Librarian

Miss Geneva Bowman Director, 1960-1964

Ten years ago Branson Hospital School of Nursing commenced its educational programme of preparing Canadian young peo- ple in our own Canadian school, administrated and instructed by Seventh-day Adventist personnel. One member of the staff, Mrs. Florence Dunbar-Vella, has held strong the chord of continuity in faithful service through the years as assistant director, as well as instructor in Mother and Infant Nursing. Miss Geneva Bowman, first director of the School, wrote the following to church members of the Canadian Union Conference in the MESSENGER of January 20, 1960: "It is with great pleasure that I announce the opening of the North York Branson Hospital School of Nursing. On February 1, 1960, a number of your daughters will be enrolling in your own Canadian School of Nursing to prepare for service in the Lord's work. "This is a miraculous achievement. Many odds have been met, disappointments have been experienced, and many prayers have been offered and answered on behalf of the School's progress. Now, we rejoice as we see the ripening fruits of labour, perse- verance and trust, and we take this opportunity to thank the officers and members of the Canadian Union and Local Con- ferences for their loyal support in the launching of the School." Now, ten years later, Miss Myrna Huenergardt, present director of the School, makes these comments: "The past 10 years represent a period of progress and growth for the School, both in quality and in perspective. As time has passed and the operation of the School has increased, its far-reaching influence has also grown. The graduates of the School are located in many parts of Canada, and their outstanding service bears testimony to the quality of education they received. "Now, after 10 years, we wish to pay tribute to Miss Bowman and her staff for the 'labour, perseverance, and trust' which they demonstrated in opening the School. Much thought and prayer, combined with labour and dedication, have made possible the continued growth of the School. "We are optimistic about plans for the future and look forward to increasing our service to God and man." •

To date, Branson Hospital School of Nursing has graduated 128 students, two of whom are in mission service.
