native of Africa's fast progress
ing Nigeria nation, will speak
on the political, economic and
religious aspects of the worlds
second largest continent and
his own country here Aug. az,
next week, Sunday morning,
with the public invited Mr..
O'Bamwayi will be making his
second appearance, having
made brief talk at Shiloh

request. The President of the
United States has expressed
agreement on closer American
African relations and Mr..
O'Bamwayi's lecture should in
terest all Guardian readers. He
is the brother-in-law of Pastor
Phillips and is a theological
student holding BIS and MS
degree from Howard and has

Jamaica University Make next
week Sunday a date at Shiloh.
Learn about Africa.
Pastor Phillips has express
ed pleasure at the recent Shi-
lob improvements completed in
time for the coming Shiloh pro-
grams of wide interest. The
Pastor has held off his vaca-
ton, long overdue, to admins
ter to be families of the COM
munity in many ways. The
Pastor has accepted a request
to conduct Radio Prayer Ser
vices Aug. 1921, this entire
week, at 1880 A. M. from the
INSTRUMENTATION radio station
Will. He becomes the second
Shiloh Pastor to conduct radio
services. During both 1949 and
1850, Pastor Wynn conducted
Pine Hill Sunrise Services from
Station WTAO in Cambridge.
Never before has a Shiloh Pas
tor conducted an entire week
of radio broadcastS. In secur-
ing a modern lecture on Africa
and in leading ShiIoh's name
onward into radio, our local
church leaders are certainly
keeping up with the times far
more than most of us realize.
AS predicted in this column
many times in the past, the
name Of Shiloh will someday
be widely known for its peo-
pie and progress both on ra-
dio and televiSion. Certainly
all of us who have pledged con-
tributions and continued sup
port should renew our efforts
to help the church succeed. We
often give far more for less
worthy a cause in our work and
play. Daily events prove that
the church is a sound invest
ment. 1t serves us all.
