Two area women will take a “leap of faith” -- in a literal sense-- June 29. On that day, Dany Dias, of L’Orignal, and Janine Jalbert, of Vankleek Hill, will make their first skydiving jump at the Gatineau- Ottawa Airport in Gatineau, surrounded by their family members and friends. This, however, is not their first leap of faith, as both women explain that “the first one was by far the hardest – abandoning ev- erything to something so unknown, yet so freeing – “rendering our hearts to Je- sus.” They continue, “In a world that seems so dark and full of misery, there is hope.

PENDLETON | Sunday, July 14, the congregations of Riceville- Pendleton United Church will be celebrating the 125 th Anni- versary of Pendleton United Church. The 10:30 a.m. celebration will take place at Pendleton United, 2080 Concession 10, with a Genesis Cooperative joint worship service led by Reverend Phyllis Dietrich. “The Anniversary Ser- vice will reflect upon our history, which dates back to the time of Confederation,” says stewardship representative Ray Lebeau. “We will remember and give thanks for the sacrifices made by the founding pioneers of Pendleton United. When the Church was being built between 1886 and 1888, without the use of the specialized heavy equipment that we have available to us to- day, there is no doubt that they must have experienced times of hardship and human toil. At the same time, because they were building a Church for themselves and future generations, we believe they overcame these difficult challenges with glad hearts.” Over the past 125 years, Pendleton United has been kept
