"It was the experience gained during the years of toil and waiting in Midian— the spirit of humility and long-suffering there developed—that prepared Moses to meet with patience the unbelief and murmuring of the people and the pride and envy of those who should have been his unswerving helpers. Moses 'was very meek, above all the men which were upon the face of the earth,' and this is why he was granted divine wisdom and guidance above all others."—Patriarchs and Prophets, page 384.

It is hard to say good-bye to friends and the Moncton Church found it even harder to say good-bye to six families who are moving to other areas of Canada and to Mexico. On Sunday evening, May 25, approximately eighty mem- bers and friends met to partake of a buffet supper and to wish them farewell. Each family was presented with a silver tray, engraved with the map of New Brunswick and the words, Moncton, N.B. The trays were presented by Pastor Patrick Boyle and Head Elder, Alan Reeves. Those leaving were: Elder and Mrs. Cliff Patterson and daughter, Sandra.

To become a Pathfinder would indicate a desire to be- come more proficient in handling and un- derstanding whatever situation one may become involved in. In short, to become somewhat self sufficient and able to im- provise within the framework of Chris- tian guidelines. The young group of Pathfinders from the Regina Church would seem to be well on their way in applying these larger concepts._ of action, organization, co- operation and hard work. When con- fronted with an embarrassing bank bal- ance and with a Camporee coming in the immediate future, drastic action was called for. The solution? Unload a box- car of 2 x 4's. Could they do it? They did not think so. But it was worth Many hands make light work. Pathfinders and a few volunteers puttting the $230.00 and they needed the money. wood where it belongs. Why not try? But to unload a boxcar was an all-day job for grown men. Were there any adult volunteers to lend a hand? A few hands went up and the next day the work began. By noon the work was less than half done but a few "old salts" were teaching the young ones efficiency through organization and as fresh hands arrived to help, the last 2 x 4 was out and stacked by about 5 p.m. Sore hands, heads, knees and backs relaxed with an air of tired satisfaction. It had been hard work but the comradeship, co-operation as well as the $230.00 made it well worth while. And as some of these same young people hold high the flag of their club and of their country, we can be assured that they will continue to grow as Path- finders in becoming better and more use- ful members of their church, their coun- try and eventually of that heavenly city, the New Jerusalem. Unfurl the banners for God and consecrated youth and leaders.

Yorlitots-Inglis Harvests at Seeding Tin, e By PASTOR A. HIEBERT, Yorkton, Saskatchewan God's work knows no obstacles big enough that bring it to a standstill. His word goes out to do its work at any time of the year, in season or out of sea- son, until every person has heard the good news of salvation and made his and her decision. In the Yorkton-Inglis area it was again seen that His word does not return empty — it accomplishes its mis- .1,11 sion and bears fruit for eternity.

Appointed Member of Board of Directors of Saskatchewan Association of Special Care Homes

K. D. Reimche, Administrator of Swift Current Nursing Home, has been appointed as a member of the Board of Directors of the Saskatchewan Associa- tion of Special Care Homes. We feel highly honoured that Brother Ken Reimche could be one of the repre- sentatives of the association. Knowing Brother Ken Reimche as a personal friend, and as being a dedicated young man, I know that he will rightly repre- sent his church within the realms of as- sociates that he will be working with. God used Daniel of old in the high places of government where he was able to witness and testify for his master and I truly believe that even in this day, God uses young men in order that His mes- sage may be carried to each and every person upon this earth. We wish Brother Reimche God's bless- ing as he continues on in his service for Him. S. H. GALLANT, PR Secretary, Ken Reimche, Swift Current Nursing Home Administrator. Man-Sark Con f.

New Worker for Manitoba-Saskatchewan Conference In the early years of his life, being active and successful in his business and farming career, Brother Mike Manchur felt that he should be a worker for the Lord and in the finishing of His work. In 1955 he accepted a call to be a litera- ture evangelist and worked for six years in the Manitoba-Saskatchewan Confer- ence and two years in the Ontario Con- ference. In 1963, Brother Manchur ac- cepted an invitation to be a Loma Linda Sales Representative for the Ontario Con- ference. Most recent, Brother and Sister Man- chur have accepted a call and have come to the Manitoba-Saskatchewan Confer- ence to take up a greater responsibility and to be a representative for Loma Lin- da Foods in all of Canada.
