Bandon Chapel Notebook - Resolutions
tK . by Maggie B.
ry&l, NEIGHBORS! Only
hajf of the first month of the
flew Year is gone - and -
dy I have broken some of
Resolutions I made!
Tljat’s life, I tell myself, yet I
know I could do better. In
reminiscing over this year
jpst ended, I find it was filled
,yrith many contrasts for me:
pain & illness - health; great
joy - deep sorrow; rebellion -
patience; failure - achieve
ment; doubt - discovery.
From these experiences, I
have learned more about
tolerance and empathy; the
value of forgiveness, friend
ship and love; become more
aware of the needs of others;
had the satisfaction of “not
giving up”; came to complete
realization that we cannot live
in,this world alone; and know
the certainty of God’s love,
grace and mercy. As I put this
all down on paper, I know that
I learned a lot in 1982. With
God’s love sustaining me, I
look forward to each new day.
Edward Cane penned this
lovely poem, “The Future”.
Share it with me:
“I know not what the future holds, of good or ill for me
and mine;
I only know that God enfolds me in His loving arms divine.
So I shall walk the earth in trust that He who notes the
sparrow’s fall
Will help me bear whate’er I must and lend an ear whene’er
I call.
It matters not if dream dissolve like mists beneath the
morning sun,
For swiftly as the worlds revolve so swiftly will life’s race
be run.
It matters not if hopes depart, or life be pressed with toil
and care
If love devine shall fill my heart and all be sanctified with
Ooq P rfl y er
Then let me learn submission sweet in every thought, in each
desire,
.And humbly lay at His dear feet a heart aglow with
heavenly fire.”

On this Lord’s Day the sky
was gray with clouds but it
didn’t damper the spirits of
our fine feathered friends who
raised their voices in song to
greet the new day. Above the
clouds, the sun was shinning
brightly -a good day to enter
the church of your choice to
thank God for His countless
blessings.
Supt. Stan Turbyfill en
thusiastically welcomed the
fine folk gathered at Bandon
Chapel for Sunday School. His
“Thought for the day”: We
get impatient with God for not
answering our prayers when
we think He should. Let Gen.
21:1 be a reminder to us that
God is the creator of time and
11)1 HIS OWN TIME, He
answers all prayer.”
“Teaching About Compas
sion”, Luke 10:25-37, was the
subject on this Lord’s Day,
taught by B. Kent Rowley. Bi
ble truth brought out was that
a real neighbor was one that
helped anyone in need.

Bandon’s Shepherd, Rev.
Robert S. Harrell, made our
Worship Service memorable
by his beautiful message
based on John 8:1-11. Brief
resume: Christians witness
that we worship a holy and
righteous God. Those who
claim His name are called to
walk as He walked and live as
He lived. That’s where the rub
comes in. Even though we
claim to be Christians, our
walk is usually strained and
tarnished. Yet, we find that
our God is a merciful God - as
a loving father standing at the
gate eagerly waiting to
welcome in the prodigal. As
God has shown abundant
mercy to us in a tender, lov-
lege,” Sawyer said, “many
have neither the time nor the
means of transportation
necessary to attend
classees.” He pointed out that
the majority do have access
to television sets, however.
The programs will be broad
cast in this area over WUND
TV, Channel 2, at 8 A.M.
weekdays. They will be
repeated at 3:30 P.M. during
the week, and at 7 A.M. on
Saturdays.
Sawyer said the only times
a student will need to visit the
college will be to enroll for one
of the three programs, consult
with advisors, and to take the
tests. “The actual ‘classroom’
will be a living room, kitchen,
or any place where the televi
sion set is located,” he
explained.
No tuition fee is charged to
enroll. Students will be asked
to buy a book to use with their
study program, however. The
cost of the book for each
telecourse is: ABE, $16.12;
Pre-GED, $18.20; and GED,
$15.60
The beginning date for each
series of programs is: GED,
January 17; ABE, January
18; and Pre-GED, January 21.
Sawyer urged interested
adults to contact him at COA
for complete details on any of
the programs by either
visiting his office, Room
Vlls, or by calling 335-0621.
ing and compassionate way,
we can do no less to our
fellowmen. As you can see
when you read the New Testa
ment, Jesus was concerned
about sins of the flesh but
more concerned with sins of
the Spirit, i.e., judging others;
gossip; dishonesty;
discrimination; pride; and
the like. He was understan
ding about the sins of the flesh
but impatient with sins of the
Spirit. Jesus loved us while
we were yet in our sin and so
we should love each other. Is
there any one of us whose life
is so faultless or sinless that
it gives us the right to pass
judgement on the life of
another person?

of metal and how to use it, to
his work in Weyerhaeuser’s
forest operations. He left his
mark on the company in his
development of a wide range
of mechanized forestry equip
ment ranging from fertilizer
spreaders to plows and rakes
and planters.
According to a recent com
pany news release, Woolard
has retired to River Road in
Washington, N.C., but accor
ding to his friends, that just
isn’t so.
“I don’t much expect
Vern’s retired”, Duzan opin
ed, “I do expect that he’s
building something right now.
There’s no telling what it is,
but whatever it is, you can bet
it’ll work real good.”
4-H’ers On The Go With Projects And Shows
Livestock Show
The 1963 Chowan County
Junior livestock Show and
Sale will be held on Tuesday,
April 5 at the American
Legion Fair Grounds. This
was decided at the Livestock
show meeting held recently.
The possibility of lowering
the age of boys and girls ex
hibiting steers and hogs was
discussed at length. When the
vote was taken, the age of 9
year old boys and girls by the
time of the livestock show was
agreed on.
The date for shutting up or
buying steers was kept at
January 1. This year the date
for buying pigs or shutting up
pigs away from other pigs on
the farm was set for February
5 (Saturday). Weight of pigs
allowed in the show will be 190
to 240 lbs.
The possibility of having
sheep in the show for younger
boys and girls was voted out.
Gliden boys and girls will be
allowed extra time to get
steers (not hogs) since their
club has been recently
organized.
It was agreed to run a
Buyers Ad in the Chowan
Herald again this year. Ad
vance Ruritan Club and
Carlton Perry agreed to
check on condition of pens at
the Livestock Barn. Each
Ruritan Club will be responsi
ble for collection of money for
Ads submitted to Livestock
Show Treasurer (Harry Lee
Winslow).
Poultry Chain Project
There are many projects
for 4-Hers to select from. If
you live in the rural the
poultry project is the one you
should consider. It is a project
that you can learn from and
also help the family food
supply.
If you are interested in this
project and we can get enough
participation we will have the
poultry chain active again in
1983.
This is how the poultry
chain operates: we will place
fifty (SO) or one hundred (100)
baby chicks with you free of
cost, if you provide the
facilities including feed and
these need not be elaborate
facilities. You will grow the
chicks under our supervision
to pullets. During the week of
the County Fair we will have
a show and sale. The pullets
will be auctioned off to the
highest bidder and the pro-
ceeds will go back into the
chain for operation for the
following year. If you receive
50 baby chicks you give back
eight (8) to the chain, and you
give back sixteen (16) if you
receive one hundred (100)
chicks. ’Hie remaining ones
are yours to keep for layers.
District Retreat
The Holidome in Greenville
will again be the setting for
the District 4-H Retreat. The
dates are March 11, 12, 13.
Classes will center around
“Safety” which is the
1982-1983 State project. The
age limit for Chowan 4-Hers is
13 years. The co6t is $26.12 per
person for two nights lodging
and one meal, with four per
sons per room. Less than four
persons will be' higher.
Transportation will be in ad
dition. Other meals will be on
your own. A $lO non
refundable deposit is due in
our office by January 28.
There will be a Talent Show
on Saturday night. Please
have your “act” together
when you register so we can
send a listing along with the
deposit. How about a Safety
Skit?
