H. Overton Bible Class Treasurer Session Fund Treasurer Adoption of Budget Signing of Pledge Cards New Business Reading of Minutes Adjournment Benediction Organ Postlude MINISTER'S REPORT Last April your Church reported to the General Assembly a membership of 330, a Sabbath School enrollment of 225. For all expenditures for local support you raised the amount of $7,027. For all benevolent causes of the Church you gave $1,975; of this amount $1,688 went to our Mission Boards. The total of these amounts rum up to $9,002. Your Church has a most unique opportunity for service in this community. Its many years of service has established itself as a faithful contender of the Faith. Its ministers over these years have been Godly men whose hearts' desire was the preaching of the Gospel to their people and the deepening of their spiritual lives. In coming to this time, when we ask your pledges toward the support of this Church, may we not look upon this matter in terms of budgets and pledges, but may we see it as the work of the Kingdom of God, as an opportunity to have our share in the support of that Kingdom on Earth. This is a time when the Church needs every person, doing all in his or her power, to keep before the people the living issues of the Holy Spirit. The matter of our material support often becomes the "acid test" of our religion. We do not at this time bring before you a budget for the benevolences of the Church. Your generous response to this cause heretofore has shown that you have
ammieummoomeolie taken a fair share in the benevolent causes of the Church. But may your minister urge you, in this matter, to give it all possible consideration, that in making your pledge to the local causes you will have a part in its benevolent causes, too. In reading over the Treasurers' reports you will notice that every organization has made a contribution to the mission work of the Church. Truly no Church rises above its missionary vision. "The light that shines farthest, shines brightest at home."
