WEEK PRAYER
being observed by Ladies' Of First
Baptist Church.

All over the Southland the Women
of the Southern baptist Convention
observing the first Week OF March as n
week OF prayer for Home Missions.
The initial meeting OF tho Women of
the First Baptist church was led ON
Monday afternoon by Rev o. l.. Mar
Tin, who gave n most thoughtful ad-
dress on tho South or the new patriot
ISM. He spoke on the territory to be
covered by Home Missions, the people
to be reached. the needs for moro ef-
fectfye work. and tho urgency OF the
call OF the Homeland Just now in The
worlds crisis, He showed the wisdom
of the investment In making Ameri-
cu Christian from business point
OF view: from Il national or patriotic
sense; and from religious obliga-
tion. An urgent appeal was made for
great effort. prayer, and sacrifice that
the work might 60 forward Just now.
Our eyes caught the vision and the
call reaches our cars. The RESPONSE
bility rests more heartily upon Ia
thnn ever before.
On Tuesday afternoon large
crowd OF women again gathered for
prayer and study. Mrs. T. Allen led
the meeting on Enlistment and Ex-
testion, two OF the most vital depart
ments of tile Home Mission work. DR..
