St. Mark’s Church Directory

This is the fourth time that St. Mark’s has had a pictorial directory and the second time it has been combined with St. David’s. It is also the second time for Universal Portrait Studios of Church Point, Nova Scotia, to do the directory. Much effort has been made to have the directory as complete and accurate as possible. Ninety-six of St. Mark’s families will be represented in the directory. Some people have worked many hours to help prepare this directory. Dorothy Dingle, Ruth MacRae, Gladys and Rilla phoned the 188 families on our congregational list to see if they wanted their pictures taken. Jean Wilson, Linda Howlett, Judy Castle, Ruth Laskey, Gladys and Rilla acted as greeters for the six days of the photo shoot. Ruth MacRae typed the Church Roster a number of times to ensure we have all the names spelled correctly plus correct phone numbers and addresses. Camille Chapman helped to choose, lay out and write captions for the four pages of pictures that will give a view of life at St. Mark’s for the past five years since the last directory. She also prepared the submitted photos that Jim McLean took for the people unable to keep their appointments.

We thank all of you who supported this project by posing or helping. We hope you like your pictures and use the new Church directory for the next five years.
