dress.
She also brought a spiritual

quoted the love verse John 3:l6,
emphasizing that God showed His
love for all people by sending His
Son to suffer and died for the sins
of the world.
At the close Of her message she

"Once ones word and handshake

grace meet them. Even Christ had
credentials and assignments.

ZION BAPTIST

The Old Path" was the subject
of Rev. II. w! Bolts morning mes
sage the first Sunday of the New
Year, delivered to a large congre-
cation. The text was taken from
Jer. GIG, Thus saith the Lord,
stand we in the ways, and see and
ask for the old paths, where is the
good way, and walk therein, and
we shall find rest for your souls.
But they said, we will not walk
therein"
Rev. Bolts compared the church
of today with the church of yes
terday. He told his listeners that
they have fallen short of what is
required of one to be a true
Christian and that we must find
the old path and walk therein.
Let us live so that our lives will
please God instead of man." he
concluded.
Music was by the combined
choirs with Mrs. Bertha Smith and
Plouis Moore Jr., as soloists.
Robert Wynn united with the
church on Christian experience.
Following the morning service
the Ordinance Of holy communion
was administered and the right
hand Of fellowship was extended to
new members.
The eight o'clock service includ-
ed a testimonial period and a
Singspiration by the combined
choirs.
The church school and the BTU
were well attended.
