shaken, failed to stop Shiloh's
Pastor, Daniel w, Wynn from
continuing to Medferd to deliver
his excellent morning sermon on
ethics, business and security.
Apologizing for his lateness, the
Pastor and his wife exemplified
the best traditions of the faith
by steadfastly delivering the
message regardless of handicap,
The Medford Minister'S Asso-
citation which met Jan. IT, at the
First Parish Unitarian Church,
will hold its next meeting, Tues
day, Feb, q, at Shiloh Baptist
Church. Already efforts are be-
ing made to act as host to the
various churches of the city and
to such well known church lead
ers as the Rev, Alexander Hen
derson, First Baptist Church; the
Rev. Robert Dale Richardson,
First Parish Church; the Rev,
Stanley B. Smith, Grace Episco-
pal Church; the Rev. E. Nordin
Gilbertson, Trinity Methodist
Church; DR., Ralph Nichols, Com
munity Church; the Rev. Henry
Washburn, the Rev. Roger Etz,
Rabbi Alvin Poplack, Rev. Rob-
ert w. Meikle, and many other
church leaders from all over
Medford. At the last meeting,
the Association appointed Shi-
loh's Pastor, Daniel w. Wynn
as secretary pro tenn, another
evidence of religious unity from
which we can all profit. The
Medford Minister'S decision to
hold its February meeting al
Shiloh also indicates that the
days of isolation, of remaining
apart from other communities
and churches is passing. Obvi.
ously the leaders of Shiloh will
make every effort to be a worth!
host and present a genial anc
unified welcome to our distin
guished visitors next month. 1
was just last Easter when Shiloh
gained added eity-wide prestige
when its Pastor delivered a "a
dio Easter sermon. Then there
was the 50th Anniversary cele-
bration which brought many re-
lgiouS leaders to our doors, and
the recent Shiloh sponsored con-
cert presentation of the famous
singer, Henry c. Ellison and sup
porting cast at Chevalier Audi
forum. These things are on rec
ord. These are the achievements
of Shiloh which last in the public
eye and which individual in
ternal discordS can never erase.
For we, as individuals are not as
important as the church which
will outlive US all. And that will
be a theme of the eity-wide Med
ford Minister'S Association which
meets at Shiloh next month.
Let's bid them welcome.
