The September meeting was held at Alexander Grant United Church, East Lake Ainslie. An interesting report of the activities of the pastoral charge was given by Cathy MacLean. The treasurer, Dave Chapman, reported that $1,000.00 had been sent to Tatatmagouche Centre. This completes our commitment of $500.00 per year for three years to assist with renovations at the Centre.
