Gazing through the veil of
time as far back as fifteen
years ago, no people on earth
have a greater cause for re-
joicing than do the pastor and
members Of the Pleasant Hill
Baptist Church. Truly 1t can
be said for them as of old,
Hitherto, hath the Lord help
ed US" and again, THE Lord
hath done great things for
us. whereof we are glad"
AS the clock or pages of his
tory reverses. we see them
first on that bright, sunny,
Sabbath morn in September,
1889, as Just handful of
them. the faithful few"
kneel to pray with the pastor
and his wife. in the living
room of their humble home.
These were the charter
members, who for two years,
hoped, worked and prayed as
they continued to worship in
that same room, swelling their
members until, as one re-
known writer states, "The con-
gregation grew until 1t was
in all the rooms, and
even overlooking to the lawn"
Like a mighty flowing
stream that can be neither
calm nor content in cramped
surroundings, the church, of
sheer necessity, had to find a
better and more adequate
abode and place Of worship
Then, as now the Spirit and
hand of Almighty God, led
and sustained them day by
day and step by step, until at
just the right moment they
were directed to purchase a
beautiful corner lot, near
Park Here on Dec
ember 2, 1941 the community
a sigh of relief, and
whispered a prayer of thanks
giving as they watched the
Transformation of a corner
lot that for years had remain
ed unoccupied and idle. sud-
denly become occupied and ac-
tive.
The rest is history, Today
Pleasant Hill enjoys the dis
tinction of being the first
Church in the upper Roxbury
section of Boston to be found
ed and built by the same pas
tor and people, For eight
years they featured weekly
radio broadcast that carried
their regular Sunday morning
Worship services to all New
England. Someone has said
that this gave them the dis

After constructing the beau
tiful edifice at the corner of
Avenue and Waum-
beck Street, at an estimated
cost of over 100000, a Boston
banker was overheard remar.i-
ing to another that; the con-
gregation of the Pleasant Hill
Baptist Church has given the
greatest demonstration of self
help that I have seen during
my forty years of banking ex-
perience." He continued,
Within eight years this con-
gregation has done more and
gone farther than most do in
fifty years, and some in an
entire lifetime!"

oh, wha wouid I give to
clasp your hand, Your dear,
kind face to see, Your loving
smile, Your welcome voice.
That meant so much to me.
No one knows the silent heart
ache, only those who have
lost can tell. OF grief that is
borne in silence For the one
i loved so we'll. My lips cam
not tell how l miss him, My
heart cannot tell what to say
God alone know how / miss
him In a home that is lone
some today.
