Deep in our hearts that aches with
the repression,
And strive with plentitude of bitter
pain,
There lives a thought that clamers
for expression,
But loses it's undclivered force in vain
Sunday December the 18th, we had
q G:nnd time at tire Communion servi
ces at the Rising Mt, Zion Baptist
Church.
RISING MT. ZION CHURCH.
Zion was in continual spiritual UP
roar all Of last Sunday. In the morn
ing The congregation was electrified
by wonderful sermon coming FROM
our pastor. While on Sunday afternoon
(the communion service) the spirit of
the Almighty seemed to have visited
everyone present. Their was q. rejOic
ing and praising as never before IA
His steadfast soldiers poured out prai4
es to their Maker.
We regret, however that the seating
capacity is insufficient to accommodate
the large numbers that are now cora
ing out but plans are In operation for
the enlargement Of the present build
ing to meei this demand.
We desire to state further that 'be
program for 1922 is now being prepar
ed by the pastor and will be in readi.
ness at very early date.
Their are quite q few sick among
us and each Of us should make it our
indispensable duty to visit them and
leave with them bit Of sunshine o'
word OF cheer.
