PILGRIM BAPTIST

Communion Sunday, Dec. 2 the
service opened with the Ordinance
of Baptism. Rev. John Diggs read
the scripture lesson. The morning
prayer offered by Deacon M. Knott
and the offertory prayer by Trus-
tee John Hartsfield.
DR.. Floyd Massey, Jr., delivered
an inspiring message entitled, Men
Ought Always to Pray" The scrip
tural background was from Luke
1871. DR.. Massey told worshippers
Jesus made prayer central in his
life. Jesus fought battles on knees
in prayer and afterwards he was
able to face any trials or tribula-
ton in life. Prayer has many re-
wards. It lets God into your life,
brings you power and courage and
prayer is a means Of helping
others. The Bible verse; ASK, and
it shall be given you; seek and ye
shall find; knock, and it shall be
opened unto you", was also tied
into the message of the morning.
In conclusion we must get beyond
ourselves and pray earnestly, per-
sistently and expectantly to God.
Music was provided by the
Choral Group, Senior Choir and
Gospel Chorus.
The congregation was invited to
join in the observance of the Ordin-
ance Of the Lords Supper. The
Right hand of Fellowship was ex-
tended to new members.
At 7:30 pm. sermon was preach
ed by DR.. Massey and music rem
dered by the Gospel Chorus. This
was the evening worship hour.
Next Sunday, Dec. 9, DR.. Massey
will preach at the IL am. service.
Sunday, Dec. 9 after church serv-
ices the Gospel Chorus will have
a Smorgasbord Dinner.
Our Baptist Fellowship meets

ST. PETERS ANIE

A goodly number was in at
tendance for the Holy Communion,
on Sunday morning, Dec. 2.
Before Rev. Lowell johnson de-
livered the message, prayer was
offered for the sick and shut-ins
The theme for the Holiday Sea-
son Is Getting Ready For Jesus"
The text was Clean House. The
foundation for the message was
from the book Of Psalm 51:1O
Create in me a clean heart, o
God; and renew a right spirit
within me-"
Rev. Johnson stated that God
cannot dwell in an unclean house.
The heart is the temple of God,
and If the heart is dirty, what
comes from the heart is dirty also,
and spiritual dirt is just as insidi-
GUS as natural dirt.
Rev. Johnson concluded his mes
sage with the lyrics of the beauti-
full hymn: There is a fountain
filled with blood, Drawn from EN-
manuePs Veins: And there may ]
though vile as he, wash all my sins
away: Fer since by faith, I swa
the stream Thy flowing wounds
supply. Redeeming love has been
my theme, and shall be till I die
Evangelist Florence Daniels and
the two altar boys Joel Wade, and
Lowell Johnson, Jr., assisted Rev
Johnson with the Communion.
The special music provided by
the Senior choir were: "Good
News" Thanks Be To God" and
Seeking For Me-"
Uniting with the church was
Mrs. Eula Mae Anderson.
Mr.. Oliver D. Smith came as a
convert, and will study with the

Credit Union Helps;
Car Shopper SaVed
From A Wreck

How some timely credit union
advice saved a prospective car
buyer a large sum of money and
protected him from a serious safe
ty hazard is told in the December
Credit Union Closeups, publication
of Twin City Co-ops Credit Union.
The buyer had found the car
he wanted, a late model of a well
known make, and applied to the
credit union for financing. The
car had been represented to him
as very clean" with almost new
tires, and less than $4,000 miles.
The loan counselor advised a
Check-up by a mechanic of the
buyers choosing.
Here is what the mechanic
found:
The new tires were recaps on
poor castings. The clean" look had
been accomplished by paint job.
The car had been in an accident
and the frame was in bad condi-
ton and in need of welding. The
brake drums were so thin that
they were in danger of failing on
a hard, emergency application. The
$4,000 miles on the speedometer
were obviously wrong; either the
speedometer had been tampered
with, or the actual mileage was
1850 The engine had no COM
preston. The cost of putting the
car in usable condition was esd-
mated to be at least 5000.
The credit unions advice saved
the buyer not only a great deal
more than 5000, but also possibly
a very serious accident.
St. Paul recorder., 1962-12-07

teaching parallels Muhammed. AS
in the BLACK Muslims" code of
ethics, Divine's followers are re-
quired to dress moderately for
hidden to smoke, drink or use cos
metics, and obscenity is definitely
prohibited. In addition, they are
not permitted to go to the theater
Or to movies.
Divine goes one step further,
however. There Is no undue mixing
If the sexes and in Peace Mission
hotels, married couples are separ-
ated
Father Divine differs sharply
with Muhammed on the question of
race relations. Muhammed advo-
Gates strict separation of the races
and have gone so far as to demand
"A piece of this earth" (in Amer
ica) for the erection of a Black
State. Divine is praised by Ne
groes for his unwavering opposi-
ton to racial segregation. Many
Of his followers, including some
repeatedly wealthy persons, are
white.
Divine shuns over publicity. He
makes no television or regular
stage appearances before large
audience, as does Muhammed. But
he presides at massive banquets
and listen to the praising chants
of his followers. They hail him in
such terms of gratitude as THANK
you, Father, thank you," indicat-
ing their spiritual and material
satisfaction, particularly with the
meals.
Divine's movement is Hkened to
massive cooperative. He not only
feed his multitudes but, through
the organization, places them in
good paying jobs.
Because of the practical help he
provides thousands, both at the
dinner table and elsewhere, he is
hailed in some quarters as a force
for good. But he is also attacked
outside the movement by those who
consider him a charlatan, exploit
ing his followers.
But if Divine is attacked by out
siders, he is idolized by his fol-
lowers, who treat him with reVer-
ence. They are earth people with
mystical traits, who take such
names as Job Patience, Miss Char
ity, Angel Flash, Peaceful Samuel,
Victory Love and Bunch of Love.
No one seems to be completely
sure about Divine's background.
There is a report that he was born
in poverty and obscurity on a
Georgia rice plantation near the
Savannah River, the son of a
sharecropper, about 1880. But he
rose to riches and prominent with
the Peace Movement, and once
owned a mansion next to the Hyde
Park estate of the late President
Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Nonbelievers who probed into
court and prison files in New York,
where Father Divine spent most
of the 192Os and '3Os said he was
born George Baker on the Georgia
plantation. His attorney, Austin
Norris, secretary Of Philadelphia's
Board of Tax Revision, said, how
ever, that George Baker Is the
name given him by his enemies"

whose insistence that he is God
once dumbfounded the nation.
Supported by a series of mir
acles", Father Divine found thou
sands all over the world willing to
accept as truth his claim Of divini-
ty. His complete fried chicken din
ners which sold for 35 cents, the
thousands who willingly gave him
their life savings and others who
andously paid up old bills as
sumed forgotten obligations and
the rapid spread of his Peace Mis-
sions were indeed miracles.
And the open, appraised hand, the
symbol of peace, became almost a
national gesture that even one
great radio and television personal
ity adopted.
In many ways, he is the antith-
sis of Chicago's Muhammed.
Love is the keynote of his re-
Hgious philosophy, a word little
heard among Muhammed's follow
ers. No black nationalists, like Mu-
hammed, Father Divine's followers
are of all races and his virgin
bride" is white. His movement is
more spiritual than social. Father
Divne's business ventures, which
along with the contributions Of his
followers have resulted in a $10,-
100000 fortune, do not have as
their purpose the establishment Of
a black economy, but are, rather,
demonstrations Of his divine power
to provide the needs of all people.
His hotels and restaurants make
only minimal charges for their
services.
One other notable distinction be-
tween the two movements is the
type of persons attracted to the
leaders. Divine's appeal is to the
spiritually devout of all economic
levels.
Muhammed attracts large fol-
lowing from among the economic
ally and socially disadvantaged and
depressed.
Both men, however, are of
Southern origin, and each posses
ses a mystical quality that infuses
his followers with an unwavering
faith. And each, has attempted to
divorce himself and his followers
from the past by assuming new
names.
Though little heard of now,
Father Divine lives on and his
movement still flourishes.
The movement repeatedly owns
20 missions and schools, serving
5000 meals a day, in Philadelphia
alone. Thousands break bread
daily at other Divine tables in
some of the larger cities in Amer
lea and Canada, in particular.
Canada has also provided Father
Divine with his white wife, who is
known in the Peace Kingdom as
Sweet Angel. Fathers marriage
to the then 21-year-old Miss Edna
Rose Ritchings, a former stenog-
rapher, in 1916, made headlines
throughout the world. And despite
the disparity In their ages, the
marriage has survived in serenity.
Divine's first wife, a Negro, is de-
ceased.
Divine's movement has no formal
ministry. His followers break bread
in an atmosphere of peace and
brotherly love, but there are no
Scriptural readings and their ferv-
or is expressed chiefly in song
tests His meals are said to be pat
termed somewhat on the Last Sup
per, although there Is no consecra-
ton Of bread and wine.
In-one respect, however, Divine's

Opening lead-Jack Of Spades.
South's three no trump contract
meets with approval but the hand
presents a roadblock. South takes
time to map his strategy carefully.
He must get back to his hand in
order to make his six diamonds
click. He has six top diamonds,
two top spades, and one top heart
to fill his contract, which calls for
nine tricks.
He cannot afford a heart fin
esse at this early stage on account
of his club holding, so he displays
some of his values by ducking the
opening Spade Jack, hoping West
will continue the Spade, which he
did, after his partner signalled en-
couragingly with the seven. West
continues leading from the Sc
quence with the Spade ten.
Now South must hope for a good
Diamond split, and with the per-
centage in his favor, he discards
the Ace Of Diamonds in Dummy.
East plays a Spade, and South
wins in a closed hand. South plays
the King of Spades, West follows,
Dummy discards the King of Dia-
monds, as East follows with
Spade. South plays two top Dia-
monds in the closed hand, and
when opponents follow, he then
cashes the remaining Diamond,
and the Ace of Hearts to come
home with the bacon.
However, If West shifts from a
Spade to a Heart, South must play
a low Heart in the Dummy, put
ting East in, hoping he will shift
back to a Spade. Sensing trouble,
East probably will shift to the
Clubs, and the contract is in jeop-
ordy.
