Ware To Celebrate
First Anniversary
Membership Increas
ed From 17 to Over
100 Members
'Next Sunday will mark th<
end of the first anniversary o.
the Rev. Bob Ware /in the pas
torate of Immanuel Baptist
Church. Mr. Ware, who was an
evangelist for several years be
fore coming to the Edentor
church, came when the church
was Still a mission under the
mother church, Emmanuel Bap
tist in Elizabeth City.
Since Mr. Ware has been full
time pastor of the assembly, the
congregation has grown from c
mere handful of about 17 mem
bers to a total of well ovci
100 in attendance at every ser
vice. The assembly formally be
came a church in June of last
year.
During the year the church
has begun giving partial support
to two mission projects. Money
is' given to the Rev. Lindsay
Harrell in Brazil each month and
to Hermon Harrell, Bible student
at Virginia Bible College, to
ward his training there.
“Voice cf the Bible” is a daily
radio broadcast by the pastor
and is a very vital branch of
the church ministry. Mail re
sponse has been tremendous and
there have been many reon-ts of
decisions for Christ through it.
It -is especially valuable in
reaching the invalids and elder
ly citizens of the area.
In the past year, one man,
Hermon , Harrell, has been li
censed to preach by the church.
Also, the church’s first board of
deacons has been ordained.
The church maintains a bus
ministry and gives free trans
portation to many of its mem
bers and visitors.
Youth meetings have been
started each Saturday night at
the church for the teenagers of
the city. Good News Clubs have
been conducted in various parts
of the city by ladies of the con
gregation. The first vacation
Bible School in the short history
of the assembly was held last
June. i . >
-Ground has been donated, to
the church by ffn Edentonian
though there are a few legal
matters to be settled before it is
official*.
Future plans include a build
ing to be built near the out
skirts of town as a permanent
meeting place for the congrega
tion.
At least four of the outstand
ing speakers from across Ameri
ca have been engaged to hold re
vivals between now and the fall.
Plans are already under way
for a Vacation Bible School in
June.

With the onset of winter, the commonest causes of illness are

! O Thou Os Little Faith ]
By TEHRY JONES
"And immediately Jesus stretch
ed forth his hand, and caught
him, and said unto him, 'O thou
cf little faith, wherefore didst
thou doubt'.” (Matt. 14:31).
The night was stormy and the
sea was restless. The disciples
of Jesus were together in a small
ship “%lone on the sea. * They
were already nervous because
of the troubled sea but they be
came fearful indeed when they
saw a ghost-like figure walking
on the sea. They were so afraid
that they began to cry out, but
Jesus, as always consoled them
by telling them it was only He.
Then their emotions changed
from fear to excitement. Peter,
forward as usual, wanted also
to walk on water. He even,
had enough faith to step out of
the boat onto the water. Peter
did fine at first until he began
to look about him. He saw
the huge waves slashing around
him, he felt the wind whistling
through his garment as he walk- j
ed on water. As soon as Peter j
became afraid he began to sink. |
But the ever-faithful hands of
Jesus grasped him . and • saved
him.
Peter was a babe in Christ.
He thought he was ready to’ step
out” on his own and face the
ruthless sea and walk even as
Jesus could. Yet, , his faith was
too; shajlow,- the world overcame
hinj and : he failed.

Continued from Page 1, Section 1
April 12-18.
Mrs. Hazel Backus, president
of the Friends, will continue in
this capacity and she will be
assisted by Miss Viola Welch
and Mrs. Dora Coleman, who
has been appointed publicity
chairman. It was decided that
the committee will wait until af

drive. Miss Hattie Jerkins, li
brarian at Brown-Carver, will
j work closely with the committee
-in program planning for April
j which will be aimed at inter
preting library services to a
-larger segment of the county’s
population. The committee will
call upon other community or
ganizations to coordinate with
them, in an exchange of ideas
and services.
Also attending the Thursday
evening meeting were Mrs.
George Mack, representing the
Chowan County Library board
of trustees, and Mrs. Rebecca
Scoggin, director of the Petti

The future is purchased by
the present.

frankly Speaking
By FRANK ROBERTS J (
First of all, thanks go to
many folks who showed up on
Monday to donate blood. Cho-j
wan County, over the last year,
has compiled a very proud rec
ord of going beyond its quota. I
Next time a different day and
different hours will be tried to
make it more convenient. One
more thing: to those who’ve re-'
Icently suggested total integration
lof the local hospital, this re- ]
I minder: the bloodmobile has long
been integrated, though its fa
cilities haven’t, for the most
part, been taken advantage ot. I

nation of millions of Catholics

nize the country that has jailed
so many priests. As yet, just 1
a lot of confusion from the once
brilliant General de Gaulle.
An SBO,OOO survey recently re
leased, confirmed what automo
bile repairmen have suspected all
along: women drivers are hard
er to deal with than men.
A candle-lighted coffee house
in Seattle is really a church with
services being conducted by the
Rev. William Creevy. It’s the
Woodland Park Presbyterian
Church; and subject matters in
clude scenes from a play about
Joan of Arc, a discussion of the
racy Italian film “Boccacio 70”,
and a session of liberalism ver
sus conservatism.
Those Beatle hair styles are
being copied by girls as well
as boys. By the way, the
Beatles were offered no less
than $125,000 a week to appear
at the famous Cow Palace in
San Francisco. This could lead
one to believe that our sense of
values are decidedly cockeyed.
Plenty of things going in the
U. S. of A. to stop people from
smoking. In Denmark the state
owned radio has recently put a
hypnotist on the air to try his
hand at getting people to quit
smoking.
New York City was once the
film capital of the world. This
was before the discovery of
Hollywood. Now plans are afoot
to make New York the film
capital again, with one investor
offering 2214 million dollars to
wards that eoal.
Back to smoking: A Harvard
professor states that the school
boy who smokes is likely to bo
dumber, poorer and angrier than
the one who doesn’t. On the
other hand, school girls who
smoke are described as dumber,
poorer but also happier than
their non-smoking friends. Tho
good professor also said that the
average intelligence quotient of
non-smokers is higher than that
of smokers, and so is their aca
demic achievement. Also, boys
who smoke have more trouble j
in general with authority, and ,
in particular with parents. By :
the way, one magazine, Satur
day Review, has already elimi-
ciggie advertising from its i
pages.
