great land of ours, and for all the
things He has given US.
The covered dish supper was a
big success, perhaps not in num-

hope it will be the beginning of
an even greater success-that of
subscribing the money needed for
repairing Of our church.
It can be a success if we all
DO our part. This past week your
neighbOrs have been calling on Won
and friends of the church to get
your contributions and pledges. If
you haven't been visited vet. Won
will be this week. All checks
should be made payable to Trinity
