Bandon Notebook By Eleanor F. Jackson
Sunday school
superintendent, A. J. Church
welcomed everyone and upon
inquiring, found there were a
number of “first time” visitors:
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas
Fergusen and their children,
from Bassett, Va., Mrs. Bobby
Raynor, of Chesapeake, Va.,
Mr. and Mrs. Eldon Reynolds,
who have recently moved to
Arrowhead. Mrs. Sandra Soles
and five-year-old Frankie, from
Portsmouth.
Jackson Strickland give the
opening prayer. Ushers were C.
Carlyle Gilliam and Clarence S.
Barnes. The gracefully
spreading bouquet of assorted
home garden flowers were from
Mrs. Clara May Evans, of the
Arrowhead area.
Mrs. H. T. (Margaret)
Bunting played the organ and
taught the senior class. The
subject of the lesson was “The'
Peril of Greed.” Mrs. G. D.
(Evelyn) Tise taught the
juniors.
Prayers were asked for Mrs.
Berlynne Blanchard, Mrs. Kate
Copeland. B. Crawford, brother
of Mr. Crawford. C. W. Pierce.
Mrs. Barbara Raynor, R. J.
Routree, Lou Stollard and Pat
Weston.
Another birthday was
recognized that of Mrs. Juanita
Elliott. All were glad to have
her back after a recent illness.
O
At churchtime, deacon W. V.
Blanchard presented Mr.
Crawford and was pleased to
see Mrs. Ruby Crawford in the
congregation. The text of the
sermon was gleaned from John
2, beginning at verse 1,
describing the first

Bandon Chapel Women’s
i Guild had its annual bazaar last
weekend, in Fellowship Hall. A
steady stream of patrons came
from Arrowhead, Edenton, and
surrounding communities.
Hours upon hours of homework,
in addition to regular Thursday
get-togethers, netted a fine
variety and quality of
craftsmanship.
Two awards were made, as
three-year-old Lanie Harvey,
granddaughter of deacon and
• Mrs. C. S. Barnes, drew the
names of A. J. Church, for the
handmade quilt; Johnny
Bright, of Suffolk, for the
exquisite, knitted afghan. This
year’s bazaar seemed even
more successful than last
year’s.
After closing on the first
evening. Mrs. A. J. (Jeanne)
Church offered a little prayer of
thanks to the Almighty, for the
kindness shown by so many who
contributed whole heartily.
O
On August 2. Mr. and Mrs. H.
T. Bunting celebrated their 33rd
wedding anniversary, at their
home. Guests included Jeanne
and Alfred Church, Louise and
Tom Dilday, Carlyle Gilliam,
Minnie Horton, Olive and Bill
Matthews, Hazel and Eldon
Reynolds. Gerry Rorrer, Grace
Schie, Evelyn and Doug. Tise.
Margaret and Trus had gone
to Portsmouth to collect
“white elephants” for the then
upcoming bazaar and the
celebration was a complete
surprise to Margaret. Gerry
Rorrer had baked an
“intertwined hearts” cake, with
one of the names on each heart.
A huge, beautiful edition of the
King James version of the Holy
Bible, with concordance and
dictionary, was presented to the
couple.
For a week or so, Bandon
Chapel is going to miss the
familiar faces of Grace Schie
and Louise and Willie Waters.

Beach. They hope to visit the

Kodak Show.
O

A Prophet's
renderings
Belief is often such a relative
thing. We are like the man who '
got last and prayed that the J
Lord would show him the way i
out of the woods. As soon as he J
reached the highway andti
realized where he was he J
dismissed the Lord by saying, <
“You can go now Lord, I don’t ,
need you anymore.”
Nowhere in the Bible are we. (
promised the power of God in J
terms of a fire escape which i
hangs there on the side of the.]
building just in case it is i
needed. In fact the Bible is, ]
quick to point out that God's •
presence and power is needed j
every moment of everyday. ]
Prayer is also a relative and i
spasmodic experience in the life ]
of the average church member. ■
Because prayer and belief are,-]
interrelated, people often use '
prayer only in a time of stress. I
Prayer, to be real, involves 1
praise to God, confession of 4
personal sin, and committment 1
to God’s Will. These three are !
essential parts of the daily life I]
of every individual. It is a i
tragedy that only the faithful |
Christian participates regularly ■
and continually in belief and |
prayer.” ... in everything by 1
prayer and supplication with i
thanksgiving let your requests 1

THE GREAT
COMMANDMENT
International Sunday School
Lesson for August 12, 1973
LESSON TEXT: Leviticus
19:18: Deuteronomy 6:4-5;
Mark 12:28-34; Luke 10:25-27; ,
Romans 13:8-10. ,
The basis of this Lesson is
LOVE love for God and
love for our fellow men as
exemplified in the life of the
Saviour of mankind. For such
love evidences true Christian
motivation.
“Love makes the world go
round”...how often have we
heard that? Somewhat trite,
certainly...but with what a
ring of truth! For love was
the basis of Christ’s life...and '
therefore of God’s. \
There are many definitions
of love in the world today;
some are other things
masquerading as love it
really depends on personal
stature, maturity...or .
immaturity and lack of
perceptiveness...of those who j
attempt to define the |
emotion, that color our
understanding of the word.
Regardless...the Christian
concept of love is personified
in God’s sacrificing His
beloved Son that man might
find forgiveness of his sins
and come, repenting, to life
everlasting. It is personified
in Christ’s acquiescence to
the Divine Will, and His
acceptance of an ignominous
death on the cross, that man
might be saved. Perhaps the
nearest and most pure
exhibition of unselfishness is
exhibited in the natural love
of a mother for her child.
True, there are exceptions,
but they are really the
exceptions that "prove the
rule”. On the whole, there is
the same unselfishness
exhibited in mother love that
were evident in the
relationship of the Father and
of the Son.
The true Christian loves
God with aU. that bin h»n, hq
is therefore Constrained to'
live his life according to
God’s own standards. He
cannot be anything but
outreaching when it comes to
his dealings with his fellow
man.
The true Christian loves
God with his spirit. He gladly
recognizes the divine
intangible with which he is
endowed, and affiliates
himself with the Holy Spirit.
The true Christian
worships God with the
greatest of God's gifts his
mind. Through the wonders
and complexities of his
intellect he admits the gift of
intelligence, and submits it to
the Divine will.
“And with all thy
strength...’' Christian love of
God dare not be passive or
vaccillating. It is called upon
to be active, to be aggressive,
to be firm. Truly, when one
comes to God through faith in
Christ, then God’s love can be
extended to others through
the auspices of our personal
selves. We are His witnesses.
We are vessels, molded by
His hands!
These Christian duties that
we have so willingly accepted
in the act of embracing the
Christian faith, entail a
great deal of personal
soul-searching and
preparation. We must be
willing to devote a great deal
of our free time to study of the
Gospels, that we may be well
prepared to meet the
challenges which a God
oriented life inevitably
entails. We must be willing to
take upon our already
burdened shoulders the woes
and tribulations of our fellow
men. As Christ did!
