It was held from September 17 to 21 to celebrate the official opening of the agency's new building. On Sunday Rev. Sarah Wallace led the Dedication Service while community members and other friends of Bissell Centre listened and watched in the Friendship Room, corridors and even outside the building. We think that over 250 people attended the service and the reception that followed. Larry Derkach, Rev.

, The attendance at the Ribbon Cutting, held on Monday, exceeded all our expectations. The crowd of over 400 people listened to short and informative speeches from our mayor, Terry Cavanagh; Pam Barrett, M.L.A. for Highlands contituency; Audrey Smith, chairperson of Edmonton presbytery of the United Church; Robert David, chairperson of Bissell's board of directors and Larry Derkach, executive director of Bissell Centre. Plaques were presented to the centre by the mayor of Edmonton and by a representative of the constructing company, Clark Bowler. A highlight was the opening of the 'Time Capsule," a box that had remained unopened since it was placed in the foundation stone of the old Bissell building in 1936. Robert David, Pat Bourque and Larry Derkach read extracts from 1936 documents such as a bible and the Edmonton Journal. After the ribbon was cut by members of the community, people filled the corridors and rooms of the centre. The opinion of all of them was that to compare the old and new buildings "was like comparing night to day."
