I Bandon Notebook: God Answers Prayers
By Maggie B.
HI, NEIGHBORS!
January ended on a glorious
L note - God answered our
I prayers! Our hostages in
Iran are now free and back
with their loved ones. From
reports I’ve heard, God
sustained our men while
they were captives and gave
them the strength to wait on
His will. Praise the Lord!
Many thanks to Gil Holt
for writing the Notebook
while I was away. My sister
and I had a lovely time
visiting relatives. First, our
Aunt Kathleen in
Charleston, S.C. It broke our
hearts to see her in such
pitiful shape but her
daughter and husband (he is
a doctor) are taking good
care of her. We let her know
how much we loved her,
brought greetings from her
friends in Portsmouth,
bridged the years that had
passed with Hope and John
but since there was no way
we could help, we decided to
go further down the Coast to
see our cousin and his
Meeting
plied the minutes of the last
meeting which was the
Achievement Program.
Donna Pippin's led us in
“America The Beautiful.”
In getting to old business,
Gene Baker talked about the
Roller Skating Trip at
Christmas. Jewel Langley,
reporter, told about the
district council meeting held
in Windsor.
New business included the
up-coming skating party,
which is to be held Friday,
February 6. Everyone is
hoping that this trip will be
successful as the last. Mike
Pippins and Beverly Walker
were nominated to run for
district officers. Mike
Pippins talked about the
Livestock Show, to be held
later this year.
Murray Goodwin
suggested that in the future
to have meetings during the
months of January, July,
October and December.
Everyone agreed. It was
also discussed, by Beverly
Walker, that the Talent
Show should be held during
early May.
The District Retreat was
also discussed, but further
(dans are still being made.
Conference Slated;
Students Get Holiday
For the second time in as
many weeks, students in the
Edenton-Chowan School
System will receive a
holiday. A Parent-Teacher
Conference day has been
scheduled for Friday,
February 6. At this time,
parents are encouraged to
make appointments with
their children’s teachers to
discuss academic progress
to date.
First semester ended
January 27. Students
received a holiday on
January 28, allowing
teachers and staff time for
completing and recording
grades and end of semester
reports. Report cards were
sent home by students on
February 3.

THE CHOWAN HERALD
family on Hilton Head
Island, S.C. We spent a night
and day with them and their
family and thoroughly
enjoyed it. Finally, on to N.
Miami Beach, Fla. where
we visited our “adopted”
sister, Candy McCarthy and
her family. Candy now has
six children! Five of them I
had never met so needless to
say, it was a real pleasure
getting to know them and a
lot of “catching up” to do
with Candy, ho* husband
and Dad. Then, home sweet
home! As the song says, “no
matter where you roam,
there is no (dace like home”.

On this beautiful Lord’s
Day it was a great privilege
to enter God’s House to give
thanks for the countless
blessings He has provided.
Those gathered for Sunday
School at Bandon Chapel
were cheerfully welcomed
by Supt. Meta Mason. She
made the following an
nouncements: Prayer
Meeting and Bible Study
will be Tuesday at 7 P.M. in
Fellowship Hall, conducted
by Brother Bob Harrell.
These meetings are great -
try to make them a habit.
Choir practice follows at 8
P.M. The BCWG meets on
Thursday, starting at 10:30
A.M., with lunch at 12 Noon.
Come out and join the ladies
- you’ll enjoy it.
—O—
Prayer List: As I’ve said
so often and firmly believe,
prayer is the most powerful
force in this world today.
Please add our friends to
your prayer list. Harold
Gibb, Sr. entered Norfolk
General Hospital Wed
nesday for heart surgery.
Pray that the operation will
be successful. Also pray that
God will give his wife,
Hazel, the strength she
needs; Wm. T. Webb of
Brigantine, N.J. underwent
surgery two weeks ago to
remove eight blockages in
his right leg. The circulation
is now restored to his right
foot. He is not in pain but
still needs prayer; Betty
Perry is improving. She is
allowed to sit in a chair for
short periods but still needs
prayer; please add Len
Koraska; Wallace & Emma
Taylor; Helen Headen and
Erma Allsbrook. Please
remember Bill O’Neal,
Annie Cooke, Jeanne
Church, Robert (Robbie)
Jones & Janet, Doris
Squires and “Pappy”
Caisson, Rex Jones and
Jessie Baines. Please pray
for our Nation, its leaders
and its people and don’t
forget our missionnaries
and our new Shepherd, Rev.
Robert Harrell and his
lovely wife.
“Happy Birthday” was
sung by all in honor of
Elizabeth Dale as she
placed her contribution in
our Birthday Bank.
“Trust in God’s Victory”,
Matt. 13:24-35, was the topic
for our adults, masterfully
taught by Stan Turbyfill.
Aim was that adult
Christians trust in God’s
final victory over evil.
At our morning Worship
Service Rev. Robert Harrell
welcomed the large group
assembled for a spiritual
refueling. Chairman, Board
of Deacons, Thomas H.
Dilday, announced that Bea
and Hugh Peters have been
transferred to
Elizabethtown, S.C., adding
that they have been an asset
to this community and we
hate to see them go. He
extended them an invitation
to come back anytime. Hugh
responded and said they had
truly enjoyed themselves
here and were sorry to
leave.
Rev. Harrell’s inspiring
morning message was
“What is God Really
Like?”, Luke 15:1-24. Brief
summary follows:
Jesus was talking to the
die-hard religious people of
the day and they didn’t like
to hear Jesus preach about
anything new so they began
to accuse him of various
things. Notice that Jesus did
not flush with anger but told
them three parables to show
them what God was really
like. First, He spoke about a
shepherd who had 100 sheep
and one of them was lost. He
could not rest until the lost
sheep was found - then - he
rejoiced and called in his
neighbors and they rejoiced.
God is like that; Second, He
told of a woman who had lost
a coin. She swept and dusted
until she found the coin, then
there was great rejoicing.
God is like that; Third, He
told about the father who
lost his boy. The son was lost
because of his self-will. He
wanted to do his thing so he
took his inheritance and
squandered it on riotous
living. Then one day HE
CAME TO HIMSELF -
there are no greater words
in the New Testament.
When he came to himself, he
could not rest until he went
back home.
The father didn’t condone
what the boy was doing but
he never gave up loving
him. Every evening the
father went out to the gate
longing to see his son
coming home. One evening
when he went out to the gate
he saw a trail of dust coming
down the road. He thought to
himself that it must be
another traveler - but - as
the man drew near, he saw
it was his boy. With tears of
joy he rushed out the gate
and hugged the boy and
there was great rejoicing.
God is like that. He loves
each one of us as if there
were only one of us to love.
The Old Testament refers
to God as “King” but the
New Testament refers to

Our deepest sympathy is
extended to Ron Ellinwood
who recently lost his mother
and to Trudy Lapham who
lost her sister. I hope that
each of them will find
comfort in a prayer of St.
Francis of Assisi:
“It is by giving - that one
receives;
It is by self-forgetting - that
one finds;
It is by forgiving - that one is
forgiven;
It is by dying - that one
awakens to eternal life.”
