MT. ZION A. M E. CHURCH NOTES
Sunday, February 8, was a great
day with us. The Sunday School was
lively and spiritual. Nearly $50 were
present. At II A. M Rev. Hatcher
delivered a most powerful sermon on
the subject. ''The Dynamic of Faith
Versus the Impotence of Reason"
Luke 1921. Our hearts burned and
overflowed as he told us of the deep
mysteries hidden from the wise and
prudent and revealed to babes. One
young man was convicted and con-
verified. u
