into the community by a well
attended $50 AM, Shiloh
Sunrise Service at Digger
Park. Pastor Phillips did not
need a microphone, as he
walked in among the congre-
cation preaching the Easter
Story on a sunny and mild
morning beside the quiet My
site River. He was assisted by
Miss Veronica Lanier, orgina-
tor Of the park sunrise ser
vices, who read the scriptures.
The size of the large turn
out prompted plans to be al
ready underway for a larger
and more impressive program
next year. Following the out
door services last week, the
congregation retired to Shiloh
where the Baptism of Mrs.
Evelyn Tyner took place. This
was followed by a real old
fashion Fellowship meeting
with neighbor meeting neigh
Dor and a serving Of refresh

lifted and ready to meet the
day. It's been a long time
since such an informal and
satisfying religious service was
held.
