Communion Service Dedicated at Knox Knox Presbyterian
The Knox Knox Presbyterian church held a Sunday communion as Rev. ACH McKenzie dedicated a Sudbury silverplate service from the Sarah McCutcheon estate. The old 1914 service will be donated to a smaller church, and a larger service was deemed necessary. A carpet sweeper, refrigerator, and DaLite projection screen were donated or purchased for church use. Private communion was offered to elderly shut-ins with two elders assisting.
