Second Baptist Church

NJ nrOe, Mo, April 1, 1905,
the Second Baptist church of
Monroe held their regular
monthly meeting for business.
The pastor made his report tor
the past two years, which the
! church adopted. The following
is the report:
Sermons preached, 200; men,
bers added to the church by
baptism and otherwise 10. The
total amount of money raised
1853, SO and we only owe the
pastor the meager sum of $40 so,
of which we wish to be able to
cancel within d few weeks with
the concura uCe of the members
and friends. The officers with
the assistance of the pastor
and church have done a good
work With the short length
Of time and with a few faithful
workers, we only did a small
amount Of repair to our church,
and that was to put granatoid
foundation under the church at
the cost of $12 90.
Our Sunday School is prosper
ing under our noble Superin-
tendent, W. f. King, he and
his affectionate wife have done
much to help the church and
Sunday School since they have
lived in Monroe. The Sunday
School under the leadership of
Sisters M. E. Jordon and Mary
King purchased a number one
Organ and Bible for the church.
Our pastor offered his resig-
nation to take affect within 80
days or sooner if convenient
with church and pastor. The
church showed their apprecia-
ton of the pastors work by al.
lowing him to mention the time
of their departure. We the
Church and Pastor thank the
unconverted persons and mem.
bers of other churches and 9th.
er denominations for the assist
ance they have given US the
past two years. We wish tc
have your cooperation in the
future as in the past. The pas,

ment they have given him.
