In listing the name “Barbara White”, (found guilty of shoplifting) with no further identification you have embarrassed those of us in the area who also bear the name “Barbara White.” Perhaps your reporting staff was in error with this careless identification, but you, as owner-editor are ultimately responsible for what is printed in your newspaper. In the future, we are sure the citizens of Chowan County will appreciate more accurate reporting, and hopefully, you will spare others this same em barrassment. Sincerely, Barbara Jerkins White Barbara J. Divers White and Barbara Brothers White 9B May you and your dear ones share the quiet wonder of the Yuletide. i The Staff Os The Chowan Herald s , l -- ■ CHRISTMAS TREAT Student Council members at White Oak School presented a Christmas program, “The Robots” to the student body, recently.

By now, the majority of our shopping has beat done, the cookies are baked, ham cooked, the greens cleaned, and many other do-ahead things have been accomplished. Tomorrow is the BIG day, the day we celebrate the Birthday of a King - our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. There is joy in the air, friendliness and good will to all men. Merry Christmas! My wish for all of you on this Christmas is well ex pressed in this poem by Helen S. Rice: “May the kindly spirit of Christmas spread its radiance far and wide So all the world may feel the flow of this Holy Christmas tide - And then may every heart and home continue through the year To feel the warmth and wonderment of this season of Good Cheer - And may it bring us closer to God and to each other Til every Stranger is a Friend and every man a brother.” On this crisp, beautiful Lord’s Day, the fine folk gathered for Sunday School at Bandon Chapel were warmly welcomed by Supt. Meta Mason. She reported that our visit with our missionnary, Nita Pride, on Friday was a delightful occasion. Nita told us of her work in Vienna, some of the problems encountered and how God had helped her conquer them all. She is a delightful, beautiful person to know - the love of God simply shines through her being. Prayer List: No matter how insignificant our prayer may seem to us, IF it does concern us, God hears and answers. Please add our friends to your prayer list. Willie Bunch is back in Norfolk General Hospital for another series of tests; Brother John France is confix !o Albemarle Hospital and needs your earnest prayers; Jessie Baines will undergo surgery in Chowan Hospital. Pray that it willl be successful, Bill O’Neal will enter the hospital in Greenville on Jan. 4th for further surgery. He really needs your prayers , Helen Skinner was involved in an auto accident Thursday but is doing well at home now; Lloyd Jer nigan has been in bed for the past week and needs prayer; please add Lillie Dirkschneider, sister of Bob Mason, and her husband, Roman. They are in San Diego, Calif, and both need prayer; please remember J.D. Peele; Rex Jones; Robin Adcock; Bob Hall; Harold Gibb, Sr. and his wife, Hazel; Shelby Bunch; Mrs. Lulu Warren; Bob and Grace Harvey; C.W. Rountree; Annie Cooke and Russell Finch. Judith Meyer wants to express her appreciation for the prayers sent up for her father Henry Finch. He did so well that his doctor gave him permission to fly from Greeley, Colo, to be with Rev. FYank Meyer, Judith and their children for Christmas. Praise the Lord. Robert (Robbie) Jones and his wife, Janet, were so touched by the expression of love and concern expressed by the people of this area - and of one of our readers in Florida, they wanted to let you all know just how much they appreciated the prayers, groceries and cash that will really make their Christmas. I also would like to thank each and every one of you for your concern. Please remember our hostages in Iran; our Nation and its people, our missionnaries; our beloved Pastor Emeritus, Dr. Bill and his lovely Sarah and our Interim Pastor, Rev. Frank Meyer and his family. “God Sends the Savior,” Matt. 1:18-25, was the topic for our adults lovingly taught by Deacon Wm. F. (Butch) Smith. Aim was that adults put their faith in Jesus Christ as God in carnate and as their own personal Savior. The large group assem bled for our Worship Service were joyeously welcomed by Rev. Frank Meyer. He recognized our mission naries, David & Linda Smith and their children and asked David to say a few words to the congregation. David told us he and Linda stopped by to see Dr. Bill and Sarah and they sent their love and good wishes to all. He said that he and Linda would not go back to Guine Bisseau but instead would be in charge of recruiting for Christ here in the states. He added that they would still like to keep in touch with everyone and they loved each of us. Rev. Meyer’s Scripture was John 10:10; 15:11. Brief summary follows: Christmas is the time of year when we look forward to being with our families and friends. Further, it is a time for self-evaluation to see if we have followed God’s plan for us. God has a plan for each and every one of us. Life with Christ is to be full of real joy and real abundance. Look into your own being to see if you are loving “things” instead of God and people. He tells us that in each life He must be first - then we shall love our families, friends and neigh bors. Remember that all earthly things shall pass away but we wil be with the Lord forever and ever. A congregational Meeting was held following the Worship Service. The Pulpit Committee’s report was given by Deacon Tom Dilday. Treasurer’s Report as of 9-30-80 was given by Deacon Gil Holt. It was Continued On Page 5-A New Faith _ Chapel Welcomes C\.
