I use Google Alerts quite a bit to make sure that NOTHING happens on the internet that I’m not acutely aware of… ;)

One of those alerts delivered a surprise this morning… a fifty forty-four year old photo of the field that used to be where my office is now.

In the foreground, Rev. J. Alan Munro, Moderator of the 1965 General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in Canada and Dr. J.W. Wevers, chairman of the Administrative Council. In the background are, Rev. E. Thompson, secretary of the Administrative Council and Joint Clerk of the Assembly, Rev. L. Fowler, Joint Clerk of the Assembly and Rev. R. MacMillan, chairman of the Building Committee. Rev. MacMillan was a minister of Knox Presbyterian Church of Oakville, 1961-1975.

The staff of the national offices of The Presbyterian Church in Canada gathered this morning to celebrate the season of Advent and the coming of Christmas by decorating the area affectionately called “the holodeck” at 50 Wynford Drive.

While I haven’t yet discovered how this central section of the building acquired this Trek-inspired nickname, I can say that it looks significantly more festive now than it did last week. Here are some photos of the decorating in progress:

For the record, I did hang a few wreaths – there just isn’t any photographic evidence of it. :)
