Martin Top


Verses Sunday School Anniver­


sary Services at Salem Congregational Chapel, Martin Top, on Whit Sunday were conducted by guest preacher Mr Keith Wills, of Burnley. The young people of the


church presented recita­ tions connected with car­ penters’ tools. For each tool a recitation describ­ ing its use was followed by another verse which gave a lesson to be learnt from it. Those who took part


were: Mary Cullingford, Ian, Kathryn and Michael Smith, Richard and Andrew Oliver, David Scott, Julie Files and Carol Sherry. The young people also


sang “Working for the Master” to “In our work and in our play”, accom­ panied by Karen Oliver on the piano. Valerie Moor- house and Christine Oliver read Bible pas­ sages. Mr Wills brought Freddie, a ventriloquist’s doll, to convey his chil­ dren’s message on Joy. The theme for the af­


ternoon was Life with a capital “L” not with a big “I”, and in the evening he spoke of the Flower of the Holy Spirit. Peter Moorhouse was


organist in the afternoon and Miss Karen Oliver in the evening. Collections were for chapel funds.
