CHXJBCH NIGHT IS AUG. 20
...HOPE TO SEE
YOU THERE!
As many of my readers
are aware, and they are pro
bably tired of me reminding
them. I have taken three
nights and vowed to fill up the
audience at 'Strike at the
Wind!" Those nights were
August 6 (Lori Ann Locklear
Concert). August 14 (Media
Night) and now. finally. Au
gust 20-CHURCH NIGHT!
We over run the audience
for Lori Ann's Concert and
drew a moderate and inter
esting audience for Media
Night but, as one reader
reminded me, "Yob guys
can't sing as well as Lori
Ann..." I agree, therefore, I
am especially thankful'for all
those who showed up for
Media Night even if we did
. >t have a full house. We had
a nice house.
"*ut Church Night is my
particular favorite of the three
nights. I am looking for a
great turn out Friday night.
Church folk deserve a chance
to enjoy good and clean family
entertainment. And 'Strike at
the Wind!' is that.
Too. we're going to give
awav a huge trophy to the
church that brings the most
folks out. And a plaque to the
group with the second highest
total. We hope, sincerely, that

sented.

Besides. I promised my mo

would. It itches too. It just
proves that I'll do just about
anything, within reason, to
promote 'Strike at the Wind!"
THE NEWS BUSINESS IS
NOT ALWAYS PLEASANT
BUT....
One has to be as pro
fessional as possible about it.
We are carrying a front page
story on the board action
taken by the Lumbee River
Electric Membership Corpo
ration board of directors when
they asked for the general
manager's resignation Mon
day. The point is. no matter
what some may think, they
have a responsibility to repre
sent the membership. If that
entails asking for the general
manager's resignation...well,
they are within their right to
do so.
But the other side of the
coin is that the other side will
not talk for publication. The
general manager had no
comment and the attorney
intimated that she was bound
by something called euphe
mistically enough "a client,
attorney relationship." But
who is she representing? The
general manager? The board
of directors? Or the member
ship"
t t .??k she represents the
membership. And the ap
proximate 20,000 members of
Lumbee River (who inciden
tally own the electric co
operative) have a right to
know what happens at their
cooperative. I just wanted you
to know that I asked those on
both sides of the issue to
comment "for the record."
And I. more than anyone else,
know that there is two sides to
every issue. The other side Is
not "on the record" because
they refused to tell their side
of it.
Anyway, as I understand M.
' 'v?v.-. ;??.*' T
the lawyers and Hinson are
raising "procedural and le
gal" questions about whether
or not the board has the right
to fire Hinson and/or if they
did it the right way. I am sure
the issue will come up at the
meeting of the board of
directors Tuesday at 3 p.m.

They are to be commended.
Iron Eyes Cody received
many gifts from the Indians of
this region and he and
Tiniberlakc gave each tribal
representative a framed as
semblage of the commemor
ative stamps. It was almost a
"love in" as one observer put
it. Iron Eyes Cody was kind
and generous in his remarks,
as well as Timberiake. It was
a nice respite from these
troubled limes.

PAUL, THE MASTER-BUILDER
In I Corinthians 3:10. the
apostle Paul declares by divine
inspiration:
"According to the grace of
God which isgiven unto me. as a
wise (instructed) master-build
er. I have laid the foundation,
and another buildeth thereon
But let every man take heed
how he buildeth thereupon."
In what sense was Paul the
master-builder of the church. I
and what .".foundation" did he
lay? Did he not himself say
that "other foundation can no
man lay than that which is laid,
which is Christ Jesus"? Yes. he
did?and in this very passage!
He sought U> lay no other foun
dation thewChnet. hut God had
chosen nim to proclaim Christ
in a new way.
Some years previous our
Lord had asked His disciples:
"Whom say ye that I am," and
Peter had instantly replied:
"Thou art the Christ, the Son of
the living God" iMatt. 16:16).
I This is how believers in general
had recognized Him at that time
1 (John 1:49; 6:69; 11:27; 20:31).
Indeed, the Messianic kingdom
was to be established upon
Christ as God's anointed Son
? Messiah means "anointed"!.
But with the raising up of
Paul. God began to'form "the
Church which is Christ's body"
(Eph 1:22,23> Col 1:24,25).
This is the Church of today, and
it is founded, not on Christ as
King, but as the exalted Lord
and Head of the "one body"
(I Cor. 12:13).
Paul does not present Christ
as Messiah, but as Lord. In
Romans 10:9 he declares:
'That if thou shalt confess
with thy mouth the Jesus as
LORD, and shalt believe in
thine heart that God hath
raised Him from the dead, thoii
shalt be saved " Again in lCoiu
12:3: "No man can shy ffinl
Jesus i6 the LORD, but by the
Holy Spirit." And again in
Philippians 2:9-11, he declare
that God has highly exalted
Christ and given Him a name
above every name "that every
tongue should confess that Je
sus Christ is LORD, to the glory
of God the Father."
Have you confessed Him as
your LORD and SAVIOUR?

\ LETTERS TO
f THE EDITOR
i????
AN OPEN LETTER
j FROM ME TO YOU
iDcar Pii?ipr and Ckifrch
Members:
My name is Bruce Barton.
I Editor of the Carolina Indian
Voice newspaper located in
Pembroke. NC. I am also a
staunch supporter of Strike at
the Wind, the popular, musi
cal outdoor drama about the
fine people of Robeson Coun
ty and Henry Berry Lowrie. a
hero to the Indian people here
in Robeson County. It is a fine
drama, one that depicts the
Civil War era with honesty
and dignity. All races and all
people are treated fairly and,
as in real life, some were
scoundrels and some were
morally upright folk.
The drama runs each sea
son at Riverside County Club
(at the Lakeside Amphithea
ire) in the Red Banks Com
munity, approximately three
miles west of Pembroke. The
season this year runs July 3
through August 28 each Thurs
\dav. Friday and Saturday
1 night. The preshow begins at
v 8 p.m. and the drama itself
| begins at 8:30 p.m.
I feel strongly about the
drama and look for ways to
help promote it. I truly believe
in the dignity of man as
. presented in Strike at
the Wind. This year, as my
small contribution. I have
chosen August 20 and vowed
publicly to fill up the audience
on this night. I am sort of out
on a limb. And I need your
church's help to get off- the
proverbial limb.
We are promoting August
20 as Church Night. I hope to
see the parking lot full of
church buses and the audien
ce full of the fine, church
going people of Robeson
ItHiniy. The show is gtxxj,
family entertainment. And I
believe it would be a good
outing for your church.
I plan to give away a huge
trophy to the church that
brings the largest crowd. The
trophy would be something
your church could proudly
display *s "The night our
church brought the most
people to Strike at the Wind."
I myself am a member of
Deep Branch Baptist Church.
I plan to present this proposal
to my church and encourage
them to participate as we have
done over the last few years.
This is a show that Chris
tians can support, as 1 see it,
it tells the stoiy of Robeson
County through her people,
the way they thought and
acted and commingled with
one another during the Civil
War era. The themes of the
show are a fair reflection of
those troubled times.
We look forward to seeing
you and your church repre
sented on this night. Please
talk to your folks about it and
mark it on your calendar
August 20. Church Night at
Strike at the Wind.
If you have any questions
about it you may call me at the
office of the Carolina Indian ?
Voice. 521-2826. or the office
of Strike at the Wind. 521
3112. We hope you will help
us make August 20 the best
and biggest crowd ever to
attend the drama. I recom
mend the show to you. We
church f. 'k r-i <ht to support i
good fa.oily entertainment,
something w. can safely bring
our children to see.
Hope to S'. e you there.
Sincerely,
? ? ?-*? - '_ - .. ?
