Church Awards Melody Robeson The Pulaski Congregational United Church of Christ paid special tribute to one of their members, Melody Robeson, during graduation exerices at the Pulaski Academy and Central J&liojaLonJSundayr^une ^—The church's pastor, the Rev. John W. Howell, represented the family of faith of the Congregational Church by presenting Ms. Robeson with an appreciation gift of $550 to further her education. The award was a one-time special gesture of apppreciation, af- firnation, support and congratulation oh the part of the congregation to say thank you to Melody for the unprecedented volume and quality of service she has offered to her church over the past several years. The decision to present this special award was made by the Congregational Church's council (governing board) recognizing that Melody Robeson has served her church in a manner which would be considered exceptional even for an adult and certainly un- precedented for a teenager. A letter which was sent to all members of the church by the church council asking for voluntary donations toward the award cited the fact that while there are many talented and active youth in the congregation, one person stands alone in sacrificial service over a long period of time. Melody is the youngest person ever to hold the office of deaconness in the Congregational Church, and the only teenager ever to hold this office which by Performers Announced A partial list of performers scheduled to appear at the Orwell Old Home Days, July 13 and 14, has been announced. The Music in the Park, to be held July 13 at 3 p.m., will feature local performers, the Hurd family, Arthur Baldwin, and George Stevens. Additional performers will be announced at a later date. July 14, there will 1 be a'special church service at the 4 Orwell Union Church at 10:30 and a chicken barbecue, prepared by the Orwell Fire Company, which will begin at noon. The Orwell Old Home Days are held in the park in Orwell, Proceeds benefit the Orwell Union Church, and other Orwell organizations, such as the Dalked Class, the Fire Department and Auxiliary and the'OrWell Library. definition and job description requires a person of leadership and maturity to direct the spiritual affairs of the church. Over the past four years Melody has also served her church on the ^wardship Committee, the Celebration Committee, and the Christian Education Committee. , She renresented her church as the congregation's only lay delegate the annual meeting of the New York Conference of the United Church of Christ held in Syracuse in 1983. She served as church school teacher in 1985. Since the age of 13 Melody took charge of the nursery, missing only three Sundays in three years, and often singlehandedly caring for 20 children of varied ages with love, imagination, and discipline. While she was paid a small remuneration for her service in the nursery, she donated her entire last year's wages back to the church to help balance the budget. Melody's career plans reflect the same concern for people and human service as her impressive record of church involvement indicates. She will enter Fordham University in the Bronx this fall to major in pre-law and minor in sociology. Melody's dream is to serve the disenfranchised as a public defender, or if that dream ddesn't' \coMe frue,/to get her master t's degree in social'work.
