EVERGREEN
CHURCH NEWS
by Mi*. Lead* Brooks
Sunday School opened at
9:30 with a song entitled
"Somebody Loves Me and
Answers my Prayers" by the
pastor's wife.
The subject for Sunday's
lesson was "God's Call to
Service." Samuel, the child
of about twelve years old
ministered unto the Lord
before Eli. God can use
children in his service.
Eli began to become very
weak and his sight became
dim. Samuel was very devo
ted to him. During the night
Samuel heard his named
called. Thinking Eli had call
ed. Samuel went to see. Three
times this happened, but Eli
would say I didn't call you.
Then he said go lie down and
if he calls say speak Lord thy
servant heareth. Eli knew it
was the Lord. So he asked
Samuel what the Lord had
told him. The message the
Lord gave him was of con
demnation upon Eli and his
sons. Eli was a fine man but
he had failed to restrain his
sons from their crimes.
*
So often fathers fail to teach
their sons the right way.
Mothers fail to teacher their
daughter in the way the Lord
would have them to go. The
. Lord will hold each parent
responsible. Father, mpther,
if you don't have Jesus, get
him. Then you will know the
right way to teach your
children. Thev mav be crown,
married with a family of their
own. yet and still they need
Christian parents so they'll be
able to ask, Dad is this the
way or Mom should 1 do this.
You see, it is this way. If we
are sure we have done our
best, then we'll feel good
inside.
Sister Macie Oxendine's
class put on a program of
beautiful singing.
The adult class again receiv
ed the attendance banner. I'm
proud of all of you.
Those paying Their birthday
offerings to the church were
Miss Fay Ammons. Mrs.
Libbie Lee Locklear.
We were proud to have
Sister Nancy Ann Oxendine
and Sister Flora Ann Jer
ningan in church. Both had .
been out sick. These sisters,
along with my mother. Mrs.
Maggie C. Locklear. and
Sister Ella Baker, are the
oldest sisters of our church.
My mother and sister, Ella
have been out sick for a good
while. Please pray they will be
able to come to church soon.
Worship service was great.
The Lord sent a great shower
of blessings on our souls. We
had a shouting time. It was
wonderful to see how the Lord
did bless His people. 1 praise
God for the way He blessed
my soul.
The pastor read Psalms 122,
verse 1, using for his subject.
"I was Glad."* IT was an
inspiring message.
Wednesday night prayer
service was under the direc
tion of Bro. Wlkins Wilkins.
Pray we will have a great
time.
The Sunday School Rally is
to begin at 7:30 Friday night.
Come and see the great work
the people are doing in the
conference. Each church is to
put on a program. Our pastor,
along with the program direc
tor. Sister Lora Amonds and
Bro. Edmon Locklear gave
everyone a special welcome.
Saturday at 2:30 p.m.: Con
ference. Each member is
urged to be present.
Sunday at 2:30 p.m. is the
regular monthly singing.
Come with your group and
sing for us. After singing
we'll be having communion
service around 6 o'clock.
Come and let's take Sacra
ment and wash feet together.
You'll enjoy this.
Thought for Today
"The Importance of Choice"
Each individual has a choice.
There are two ways to choose
from. But only one way to go.
Right or wrong.
Never again will we be able
to live yesterday. Yesterday is
already passed. Whethar it
was lived right or wrong, it
won't be changed. Yesterday
is gone forever. And to
morrow. well tomorrow may
never come. You see. today
we have a chance to be sure of
the choice we make for this
day.
What soever you would like
to do. or like to be. make that
choice today. The choice you
make today will count for ail
your tomorrows. Please, dear
reader, if you haven't as yet
made the right choice for your
life, 1 beg you. do it now.
Jesus...that's the right
choice. Please pray for us at
Ever Green.
