Those attending, and others who were unable to be there, sent us the titles of two hymns which were of great significance in their lives. Some of these were incorporated into the service at 10:30 that day, others were sung with fervor after the luncheon, and all were listed on their keepsake program of the event.

All of the members of our congregation included in this category were remembered during the service and recognized for their years of service and faith.

Afterwards, the honorees were treated to a luncheon of Summer Savory Fruit Soup, Salade de Poulet with Toasted Rye Wedges, and Lemon Sorbet. An assortment of cookies was available for their dessert. An old-fashioned “hymn sing” followed. The meal was served by youth from our congregation.
