The season has arrived for green field peas. With many folks
in this area, peas are a favorite vegetable. Crowder peas are one
of summer varieties and are plentiful now. Looking through
grocery store shelves of cann^ goods, I saw Jalapeno peas on
the shelf. I am a person who loves to experiment, therefore, 1
began dreaming up a recipe for Jalapeno peas. I remember a
few years back I was at a homecoming and one woman had
peas cooked with smoked sausage. They were very good. 1
came up with the idea of cooking the peas and sausage with
jalapeno added. If you like them hot, this is the recipe for you.
Vi lb. smoked sausage
6 cups water
Jalapeno Peas
4 cups shelled crowder peas
New Minister Assumes
Duties At Local Church
Members of the Vanceboro
wCIv. istian Church will observe as
their new minister, Rev. Dan A.
Hall, is installed at the 11 a.m.
worship service Aug. 28.
Dr. Bernard C. Meece of the re
gional ofYice will be in charge of
the service and installation. Fol
lowing the service, lunch will be
served in the church’s fellowship
hall.
Rev. Hall was born in Charlotte
on March 30, 1963. He was not
raised as a Christian. However,
he started attending church with
his neighbors when he was 15-
years-old. Hall came to know the
Lord Jesus Christ as his savior
March 25, 1979.
Hall graduated from Montreat-
Anderson College and realized
that God was calling him into
^ojT^o type of Christian service to
others. Hall attended Greens
boro College and while there he
said he received a real and per
sonal call to preach the word of
God. Upon his graduation from
Greensboro College, Hall con
tinued his education through
Bethany Theological Seminary,
where he received a master’s de
gree.
Hall has been in Vanceboro
during the past week, working
with members and sharing his
enthusiasm for his mission and
work. After services last Sunday,
he joined the congregation in a
soup-and-sandwiph lunchebn.
At the luncheon, the congrega
tion met with Hall and offered to
help work with him.
The dedication and spirit of
working together toward a com
mon goal has already been
proven this past week by numer
ous members getting together
and working on the church par
sonage. Some members have
cleaned windows, scrubbed
floors, mowed the lawn, painted
and have done other work.
The Vanceboro Christian
Church is ready to reach out and
serve the community, and Rev.
Hall is committed to the Lord’s
work. For further information or
help, call 244-2001 oc 244-2580.
