1t was with joy and gladness to
me then they said let us go to the
house of the Lord, that is what
the followers of Christ say when the
day came for them TO again return
to worship. With the beautiful sun
shine and cool breeze of the morn
ing, large and appreciate crowds
found their way to service, opening
with Sunday school forces in their
places, each department wide awake
and ever on the alert to do their
very best in the cause of Christ.
Supt. Davis with his co-laboress is
leaving no stone ,unturned to make
this the greatest Sunday school in
America. The church has voted to
send a large delegation to the an
nual meeting and the Supt. to the
National Congress in Springfield, Ill.
After the lesson study the pastor
gave us a. beautiful review of the
lesson which was really enjoyed by
all present. and when the enrolling
Sec'y. made her annual report it,
was stated that 312 had taken part
in the lesson with good number
showing up late for the teaching
exercise. The adults again won the
laurels of being the leading depart
ment by reporting $3.50 over the
Metoka, $715, total collection for
the day $29.97. At the II o'clock
hour the sweet singing Of the choir
made all feel like worshiping the
Lord. Pastor Prince arose and read
the morning lesson and lined hymn
in which all the congregation joined.
Rev. Wright lead us to throne of
grace in fervent prayer. The pastor
then named the LIST verse of the
8th chapter Of Roman for his text;
Subject, Christian Freedom, To
say nothing of the manifestation
of the spirit, the sermon was a
soul stirring one and will long be
remembered by all who heard it.
At the close of the sermon two came
forward and asked for membership
with the church. The UNCONVENTIONAL
work was laid before our people
and all are catching the spirit. At
$3.50 we again assembled at the
house of prayer and the Lords Sup
per was administered to a large
audience.
The Mems Union held a splendid
meeting with Bro. Ira C. Butler at
the head of the helm. Bible in
structor Davis again held us spell
bound with such an excellent Bible
lesson-after which we were intro
duced to Sister Adams of Longview,
Texas, who spoke. The B. Y P. u.
forces rendered an excellent pro-
gram with Bro. Butler leading the
Bible readers course and Bro. Willis
making things go in the drill work
of the Union. Pres. Newman is the
real Union man. He leaves this
week with a large delegation to
the District work. We always re-
member our sick and those who are
in need of our help at each service
Our people give literally toward the
needs of our members. More than
500 was distributed to our members
Sunday. The pastor and a large
delegation left Monday morning for
Waxahachie to attend the Sunday
School and B. Y. P. U. District
Work.
