Over the Top! The new Metho
dist Episcopal Church of Slaughter
Neck was dedicated Sunday, Novem
ber "a, with one of the largest, en-
thusiastic and religious gatherings
that has ever been witnessed IL
Slaughter Neck.
Rev. Otis P. Jefferson, one Of the
many products of Slaughter Neck
Church, preached a masterful and
spiritual sermon that touched the
hearts to an overflowing and appre-
ciative audience.
The choirs of Lincoln, Slaughter
Neck and parts of Milford, brought
songs of praises that filled our CUP
to overtiowing.
At 2 p. M, Rev. w. E. Habbart
District Superintendent of the Dow
er District, brought us a very time
ly message. Then the trustees pre-
sented the church to be dedicated to
the worship of God, service long
to be remembered because of the
spirit of the Lord present.
Rev. W. E. Habbart was assisted
by Rev. Otis P. Jefferson in this
service.
The large choir of Lewes render
ed us music and songs. The writer
fails to find words to describe the
wonderful praise that they render
ed. Never was the like heard IN
Slaughter Neck.
Rev. w. E. Habbart brought the
message of the evening to an over
flowing audience. Never had we
heard Brother Habbart do better
and his message found its way into
the hearts of his hearers which will
live always.
Our friends and neighbors of Mil
ford M P. Church choir rendered us
the songs and anthems, any churcn
should be proud of these wonderful
singers, led by Brother Robinson.
The total cost of our church was
S4413.95. all of which was raised,
and still more coming in, and the
people did it willingly. Never nave
we seen such sharing.
The spirit of Christ still lives IN
the hearts and minds of His people.
Thanks to our friends, neighbors
and members for their very gener-
GUS offerings, which has MADE II
nossible. with assistance of our Goo
Who has wrought this miracle.
