Adventist carolers making plans
O lone news
Mr. and Mrs. Leo Crabtree
spent the weekend of Nov. 19
in Portland visiting with Mr.
and Mrs. E.E. Meyers.
Due to the adverse weather
before Thanksgiving, many
family gatherings were can
celled because of driving
conditions. Those who did
travel found icy highways and
difficult traveling. As the
snow melted there was very
little run off, as most of the
moisture went into the soil,
and now we are having early
spring-like weather.
Thursday Nov. 17, the Wo
men's Fellowship met at the
home of Mrs. Fred Martin. It
was decided at the meeting to
change the name to United
Church of Christ Women. A
stewardship film, "Demis the
Drifter", was shown, followed
by a good discussion on the
Grand Squares
shift dance site
Until further notice, the lone Grand Squares will be square
dancing in the American Legion Hall, South Chase Street,
Heppner, beginning Dec. 3.

Members of the Seventh-day
Adventist church are enthusi
astically making plans for the
1977 caroling season : The time
of year when all who can sing
(and all who like to try) will
pull on their warmest clothing
and climb to the back of a
truck where bales of hay
covered with blankets make
comfortable seats.
Then with more blankets to
wrap up in, they ride slowly
down streets, up hills and
around corners. As Dave Gray
plays the little portable pump
organ (stopping only occasion
ally to warm his fingers), the
group fills the night air with
strains of "Silent Night", "O

and other loved carols of the
happy Christmas season. If
the night isn't too cold,
windows often open and mo
thers hold children up to see;
families come out on the porch
to listen, and sometimes join
in a song; and nearly every
one shares his Christmas
dollars to help someone else
enjoy just the ordinary com
forts or necessities of life.
Local residents who have
become familiar with the
Adventists' caroling program
realize it isn't just a fun
exercise. It is actually part of
a serious world-wide appeal
for funds with which to carry

Something like 11
million people per year re

in one form or another.
Adventists treat thousands
of patients each day of the
year jn the 136 hospitals and
261 medical units they operate
worldwide.
But in most overseas coun
tries, where a sick person may
pay only a few dollars for a
costly operation and a lengthy
stay, additional financial as
sistance is required.

The members of the church
share in this project by
donating their services in the
collection of the funds. These
funds are handled through
already existing organization

are no extra administrative
expenses.
