Adds New
Department
Miss Elizabeth I.assiter, Director
Of Religious Education At 1
IvOuislmrg Baptist Church
The members trf~the Louisburg
Baptist Church five months ago
made a careful survey of their ;
community and thereby discover- 1
ed that they had nine hundred i
possibilities. At the beginning of
(?his year they prepared and j
launched a program to meet the'
challenge of their possibilities.
But the attempt to carry out that!
program soon revealed the need
of more workers. So the members
of the church, encouraged by the
fact that their budget had been
oversubscribed by 20 per cent,
voted a few weeks ago to secure
the services of a Director of He- '
ligious Education. And at the
service of worship 011 last Snndaj^
morning, the. church voted to in-]
vite Miss Elizabeth l.assiter to!
accept the new position.
Miss Lassiter has had both a
general and special training fori
her office, for she is a graduate
of Pineland Junior College and i
the Training School in Louisville, i
Kentucky.
Moreover, she has had exper- ;
ience in Christian service. She. ;
has often assisted the Sunday ,
School Board in their enlarge
ment capaigns in North Carolina.
Besides, she comes to her new
position from the Eller Memorial
Baptist Church, of Greensboro,
N. C., where -as a full-time work
er she has rendered an effective
service.
For her new position she has
the hearty recommendation of!
Mr. L. L. Morgan, Baptist-'Secre- ;
ttary of the Division of Sunday j
School Work in North Carolina.
Miss Lassiter will assume the
duties of her oft ice on March !i ?
or 10. She will be formally in-;
troduced to the church on Sun- 1
day, March 13.
