A Sunday School banquet Will be
held in the st. Georges M. E.
Church Hall on March 30th, at to
8 p. m. Sunday School workers will
be addressed by prominent men in
Sunday School work of the State.
This will be splendid opportunity
to get some new ideas that may
help our school during the coming
year. Marion Lawrence, one of the
greatest leaders in Sunday School
activities, once said; that if the Sun
day School is not out for business
namely, the Kings business) it has
not any business being out. If we
are to have live church in the flu
ture, it can only come from the
Sabbath School. Are we trying to
inculcate into the young boys and
girls instruction that will live in
their hearts when you and 1 have
passed on from this earthly So
journ?
Sunday, March 31st, will be Vic
tory Day. New cornerstone will be
laid. Special services, with able
speaker at the morning, afternoon
and evening services. The church
debt is about all liquidated. This
was the desire of the official board,
that the new incumbent might not
have any financial matters to con-
tend with. Should the M. E. Con-
ference stand by the rule of three
year appointment to the Dagsboro
and st. Georges churches. Our
church has been walking with the
aid of other churches since 1880.
