The Extension Work
Of The Sunday School
By CHARLES LEDFORD
Our College Sunday School, in addition to the regular Sunday morn
ing classes of teaching, learning and fellowship, is sponsoring an active
extension program.
Each Sunday morning a group of our college boys from Mr. Mor-
risett’s Sunday School Class teach the Sunday School lesson to the sick
in the infirmary.
At 8;30 a.m. each Sunday morning a group of students, boys and
girls, meet in front of the E. B. Hamrick building and go out to homes
in the community to bring the Sunday School lesson to those who aren’t
able to attend chva’ch. Also on each fourth Sunday from about 2;00 p.m.
until 2:45 p.m. in the evening a group of the boys go over to the jail
in Shelby and bring messages to the inmates there.
In all these channels of service our students have been wonderfully
blessed. It certainly is a challengii-g opportunity for anyone who is eager
to serve. More students are needed especiallv to teach the Sunday School
les_0ii in the community each Sunday morning. Here is an opportunity
for you to serve and you won’t regret that you did.

Of all people, a group of ministerial students. These students were wit
nessing for the Lord to those who were behind bars. It has proven to be
a blessing from God as we have watched the expressions on the faces
those to whom we talked. Some of them were cold, bitter, uncon
cerned and tense, some yielded to the Lord, others did not find strength
yield. Remember us as we witness for our Lord in this small way.
