NEUSE BAPTIST CHURCH NEWS By Mrs. Velma Chambers Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. Matt. 24-42. You have heard the saying, “The family who prays together, stays together.” The same is true of a Church, for we are one big fam ily of God. We must give credit for the success of the growth of our Church, to our men’s prayer band, who meet each Sunday morning at 7 o’clock. There were 22 present Sunday morning. Mr. Ed Mitchell was speaker. I was told Mr. Mitchell did a marvelous job. There were 205 present for Sun day School, and another over-flow crowd for the 11 o’clock service. Rev. Carey brought a very out standing and timely message. His subject was, “Signs of the Times and the Coming of Christ.” H Tim othy 3:1-5. Matt. 24:7.

ALL FOR THE CHURCH The Church is the greatest factor on earth for the building of charac ter and good citizenship. It is a store house of spiritual values. Without a strong Church, neither democracy nor civilization can survive. There are four sound reasons why every person should attend services regu larly and support the Church. They are: (1) For his own sake. (2) For his children’s sake. (3) For the sake of his community and nation. (4) For the sake of the Church itself, which needs his moral and material suijport. Plan to go to church regu larly and read your Bible daily. It has been said that a man is tallest when he is on his knees. The familiar pic ture of George Washington kneeling in prayer at Valley Forge reminds us that the “Father of our Country” was a man who walked close to God and who taught his soldiers to pray. Washington recognized that human frailty is not a sign of weakness — that it is the first step toward finding the needed strength. To call upon God for the re sources we lack is to supply our deepest want. The example of our first President still points men to God. Just as George Wash ington found God’s strength available, so do men in our time when they call upon Him in faith. Discover Him in your own life. Worship God in your church next Sunday.
