CAN'T RESIST THE
CALLOF THE CHURCH
W. F. Dissette Returns to Min
istry After Some Years
Spent in Business

The urge OF a dominant idea is ex,
emplined In the case OF Wesley r.
Dissette, who has just been appointed
pastor OF two Baptist churches, one
In Monroe, one in wyandotte.
Mr.. Dissette Is the son OF a Meth
odist divine, as his first name may
indicate. He was brought up In an
atmosphere Of religion which, as he
says. Ii likely TO do one OF two
things-either produce love for the
work OF the church. or an extreme
distaste for II which manifests itself
In so many ministers sons going
wrong" Il was the former case with
Mr.. Dissette, for although he never
mary, he was from early life a deep
student OF subjects which lead TO the
ministry.
Some years ago Mr.. Dissette was
given a charge In Hillsdale. but his
health gave way and he was forced 70
abandon II. He became credit man
for r. II. Fyfe q Co.. Detroit. As his
strength returned, the church began
to exercise It's old attraction for him
II was not long before he was enlisted
in the work In Monroe and Wyan
dotte. He preached In one city Sun
day mornings, In the other in the
evenings.
| His success was such that the
churches wanted Mr.. Dissette TO give
up his work In Detroit and devot,
his time 10 them. Finally he agreed
Oh condition that the Baptist confer
ence make a regular appointment
with a salary--for ministers mus
live. The conference made the as
signment, and Mr. Diasette has resign
ed his position, TO take UP his churcl
work Dec. /. He will live In Mon
roe, but will divide his time betweeI
Monroe and Wyandotte.
The church In Monroe is an old on,
which in recent years has had har,
shedding. Two or three times II wa
on the point of passing out OF exist
tenve, but each time II has taken
new lease of life. The congregation
possesses a fine church building, an
Il Is believed that the church can b.
made strong again by Mr. Dissette'
work. The congregation In Wyan
dotte Is smaller. but Is in good shap
financially and has q small mission
building.
| Il believe that my business exper
fence will be considerable help TO m
in my church work." says Mr. DIS
