Say Elizabeth City Church
Folks Put Everything Be-

That the pastors OF the six
largest churches in Elizabeth
; CITY are sick and discouraged
at the condition of their
churches. never before having

thing before the church as they
, do in Elizabeth City, was the
statement made from the pull

DR.. Wilson spoke dispassionatcly,
having carefully weighed his Ian
gl'agr before he spoke. He said that
only Il few days previous he and
the other minister's hud discussed
conditions and compared notes, and
all were alike discouraged: the
condition Was not confined to any
one church. Nor was it confined
to any particular group in the
church. said DR.. Wilson. He said
II existed thru and thru and from
top tn bottom.
No pastor can count on any con-
siderable number of his members In
any spiritual cndcavor. said the
pastor. or twenty-five members of
his Board Of Stewards il was rare
that more than half of them attend
cd Il Board meeting. There is
always something mere important
than the work Of the Lord. 1t was
the same way in the Sunday School ::
the Superintendent could not count
on his teachers and Officers: il is
almost impossible TO get meeting
