Today's Neighbor HAYESVILLE - Re*. Clyde Faulkner wis chosen by Miss Mary Jarrett and Mrs. Arthur Penland. Rev. Clyde Faulkner came to Clay County in 1961. Within a short time after com ing here, he had worked his way into the hearts and lives of people throughout the county. He is pastor of the Hayesville Charge and beloved by the members and other people in the County. Rev. Faulkner's home town is Henderson, N. C. He re ceived his A. B. Degree from High Point College and his B. D. Degree from Emory University in Atlanta. He married Miss Hazel Wall in 1935 and she like some other Clay ministers wives has her P.H.T. degree (putting hubby through) Rev. and Mrs. Faul kner are the parents of one son, C. W. Jr. and one grand son. C. W. Jr. is working on his PHD at Emory and teach ing at Georgia State College. He also pastors a church at Tucker, Ga., just outside At lanta. Rev. Faulkner has preached from Murphy to Manteo since becoming a pastor. Since com ing to Clay County as pastor of the Hayesville Charge, a new church has been built at Sweetwater, where the mem bership has almost doubled, new pews and other sanctuary furniture have been added. Hickory Stand church has completed a rock veneer job on the outside of their church and are in the process of re modeling thesancturay. Ogden Church has installed a new furnace and painted the outside of their church. Oak Forest church has selected plans for a new church. The plans are now in the hands of a con tractor. This church hopes to get construction under way by July. Miss Mary Jarrett says: "Rev. Faulkner is a person with so much kindness and understanding . He is so thou ghtful of others. One cold day last winter when the ground was covered with snow, and I was afraid to get outside the house, I heard a knock on my door. It was Rev. Faulkner who came to see if I needed any thing like groceries or other supplies. He not only stopped at my house but all the other houses where there were aged people or others living alone. He became the errand boy that day for many were afraid to get out." "After a serious illness last spring, I was in the Mission Hospital, Ashevllle for treat ment and x-rays. I returned from the x-ray room and was very discouraged and blue, not knowing what the outcome was going to be. Of all the people I would like to see, Rev. Faulkner came to my mind. I no sooner had the thought, than it became a real ity. About that time he peeked around my door with that wonderful comforting smile. The sight of him lifted my spirits, and worries began to ebb away as he talked to me and prayed. I learned that he had been down in the lounge for quite some time, waiting! for them to bring me back to my room. I will never forget that day.." "Rev. Faulkner is a man who lives by faith. In January he was selected as one of the ministers who was chosen to go to Puerto Rico to help build a church. The trip would be very expensive since the group was going by plane. Since his salary 1s low, he was not able to finance the trip alone. It was almost time for him to go;, before he even men tioned it. He was visiting one day ?nd ca.?ually r>emione< the trip. The woru ~?oni get ?round to his peep and the] opened their pocket book s ant soon had provision made foj him to be on his way. H> took pictures while there ant showed these to all hij chun. bee." "If a high school teachei at Hayes vllle is 111 or It b necessary for them to make a trip, he is always ready tc substitute. He preaches three sermons each Sinday and vis its the shut-ins, the hospitals not only an his charge but others. Just last Sunday his hands were covered with band aids from helping to assemble and Install the pews at Sweet water Church." "Rev. Faulkner is not only a minister; but he enjoy shunt ing and fishing. He likes farm ing and enjoys growing things. He grows a tobacco patch at the Arthur Penlands. His method of planting is un ique. He sets the tobacco plants In two row strips, then has a strip of grass, then more tobacco until his patch is fin ished. Last year It grew so tall, he could not prune the lower leaves without breaking the top leaves." "Rev. Faulkner meant so much to our family and es pecially my aged mother who was a shut-in for so long. As 1 see him truly the spirit of Christ is radiant in his life. It shines in his face as he greets young and old. It is exemplified In his every action. Truly It can be said he walks In the footsteps of the MASTER. Mrs. AJtnur remind says "Mary has already said so many things, I had in mind, and one space will not permit me to say half the good things I know about Rev. Faulkner. Since my husband has been bed fast for die past few years and I have had a lot of ill ness myself and been hos pitalized a lot, the visits he makes to see us both has meant somuchto us. He comes at least once each week to read the Bible and pray with us. Since we are not able to att end church this has a special meaning to us." "One day last summer he came by and asked for some buckets. When I wanted to know what he needed them for he said 'I just thought I would pick you some black berries'. He came back with 3 gallons of nice berries. During time to plant a garden I was ill and he told me not to worry that he had already planted corn, beans, potatoes, peas, squash etc. and even added water melons. Last fall he had a community turnip patch. Everyone who came by was welcome to get them." "He is the most wonderful person to us. His presence and prayers have helped to sustain us in the most trying times. He not only does the work of a minister; but labors with his hands to help others, which shows the true spirit of God in his life." Cherokee Scout & Clay County Progress, Thurs.
