' We have done nothing worth j boasting about," said Mr. Wilson, ] "but we feel that the tithes and i offerings of this little scattered church of thirty members are not bad. Here is the record for 1956 to the end of August: tithe, $1. (158.37: offerings to foreign mis sions. $334 32; additional offer ings for church expense and local missionary work, $230.33. "Our little tabernacle was really put up as a temporary structure," Wilson said, "and we would like very much to have a more permanent and more pre sentable building. We did put on a new shingle roof this year. But we feel we must keep up our foreign mission offerings, even if it means waiting a little longer for a better church for ourselves." Plans for the immediate future center mostly around the boys and girls of the church and their friends. Wilson said. His church feels, he said, that to fight the increasing juvenile delinquency that is becoming a major problem throughout the country, the church must do everything pos sible to hold the interest of its children and youth. These plans, Mr. Wilson said, include improving the children's and young people's departments of the Sabbath school, organizing "Missionary Volunteer" progres sive class groups and a "Path finder Club" for nature study and recreation, and even estab lishing a regular "church school" ?a day school for the children of the church.
