The pastor and several mem
1ers were away attending the as
'Dciation. We missed their pres
nee from the service but it is
ratifying to say that we are
rowing up. Because of the pas
or'S absence we did not stay
way from service. Our own Rev.
:. Williams conducted the SER
,iceS throughout the day in
cry complimentary manner. We
re very happy to say this for
Tim. The Sunday School was well
tended and interest was mani
ested, seemingly, by all.
The morning worship was nice
nd filed with spiritual interest.
Rev. Williams was very good in
lis delivery. His discourse was
ogical and we who were present
,njoyed the services. The BTU is
'eally expanding. Our program of
'ctivities is proving to be bene-
'"ial in several ways. We hope
his interest will hold.
Appreciation Day! Honoring our
pastor. Such a fine gesture to ex-
'ress our love. Yes, he has serv-
I'd Mt. Sinai 20 years. I can re-
call how we have grown under
lis wise guidance. We trust that
as we celebrate with the pastor,
members and friends, God will
bless the day and our efforts.
May we be inspired to continue
on to higher grounds.
