Churches Of the Presidents-First Baptist:
By OIqo Jones


Surprises are often in order
when President Truman visits
First Baptist Church on Sunday
mornings.
One Sunday, early in his ad-
ministration, Mr.. Truman walked
to the church to attend a morn
ing service. Instead, he was asked
to give the commencement ad-
dress" to children of a Sunday
School class.
The Chief Executive assented,
and surprised minister intro
duced the President to an even
more surprised group Of girls and
boys, who can now tell their
friends the President spoke at
their graduation.
Secret Service Man Knocks.
AS he does frequently, Mr.. Tru-
man had decided to attend a serv-
ice at the last moment. DR.. Ed
ward Hughes Pruden, minister of
First Baptist Church. Sixteenth
and o streets NV, recalls:
zone Sunday morning, just be-
fore our early service began at
9:45, a, Secret Service man came
to my study door and informed
me that the President had already
left the White House and was on
his way to our church.
while I was very glad to have
the President come I was some
what embarrassed because instead
of the regular morning worship
we planned promotion day pro-
gram for the children of the
Sunday school for that hour. and
naturally things were not as well
iorganized as they usually are. !
therefore met the President at
the front door of the church. and
I am afraid rather apologetically
Explained to him the nature of
our special service that day.
"The President instantly re-
piled that he is very fond of chill
dren, and was quite sure he would
thoroughly enjoy the service. On
the spur of the moment asked
him if he would be willing to
say a few words to the children as
"a part of their promotion pro-
gram. He said he would be glad
to do SO.
"As the service proceeded the
children were given their diplo-
mas, and then I announced to
them that Americas first citizen,
the President of the United
States, was going to make their
commencement address. Then I
called on the President.
President Addresses Children.
"He-President Harry Truman
got up from his pew about two
thirds Of the way back, walked
down the aisle to the front of the
church and stood facing the chill
|dren. Then for a few minutes he
spoke very simply and effectively
to them concerning the benefits
|of growing up in a Christian
democracy. It was a moving and
significant occasion. and it was
difficult to tell whether the chill
|dren. their parents or the pastor
were most pleased"

zone does not have to accept
blindly the ideals taught in the

put them to the test of his own
personal experience, therefore dis
covering for himself whether or
not these principles are worthy of
his acceptance. Even as Phillip
said to Nathaniel concerning
Jesus: Come and see.' so we would
say to those with doubts about the
authenticity of Gods message to
men revealed in the Holy Scrip
lures. No laboratory notebook is
more revealing of discoveries made
than the, pages of the Bible.
When Paul declared, For we know
that all things work together for
good to them that love God he
was speaking out of the rich ex-
periences he had had in the
laboratory Of life. He was voicing
no theories but giving affirmation
to fact that he had discovered
for himself" said DR.. Pruden.
Organized in Treasury.
The First Baptist Church orig
inally was organized in the Treas
ury Building. when all Of WASH
ington did not count more than
1000 people. The second site, it
seems, was near Tenth and E.
streets NV. Later. this prop
erty was sold to a Mr.. Ford, who
made it into a theater. It burned
to the ground shortly Thereafter.
Rebuilt. this was the theater in
which Abraham Lincoln was
assassinated.
The present building was opened
for worship in 1890. Since that
time there have been redecora-
tionS and refurnishings. In recent
years. additional adjoining ground
has been acquired. The church
now has about 1000 members.
Each Sunday morning two serv-
ices are held to accommodate all
who come.
When the new sanctuary is COM
pleted, when the time-seasoned
wood and the hand-wrought nails
are made into the cross and the
replica window of Christian"
adds its sublimity to the whole,
then the First Baptist Church will
indeed have reached another i'm
portant milestone on its road to-
ward the goal expressed on it's
l50th anniversary program this
year: And greater things shall
we do."
