ST. STEPHENS AME CHURCH,
Gastonia, of which Rev. C. H.
Hairston is pastor. This pastor
came to the ohurchAugust 20,
1939, and found it struggling for
twelve years under a $35,000 debt.
During the sixteen months that
this pastor has served, he has re
duced the dt^bt from 8,800 to $5,
50^. The amount of $2,500 was
paid on he debt, December 2, at
the close of a rally.
Under the eflficient leadership
of Rev. Hairston who is also
president of t.he Ministerial Alli
ance, the church has been able to
meet all general expenses as well
as all the requirements of the
general church.
St. Stephens is also spiritually
alive due to a tremendous in
crease in the number of organiza
tion and membership attendance.
Rev. and Mrs. Hairston work
side by side with the good oem-
bers of the church to have a bigg
er and better St. Stephens. Mrs.
Hairston is a teacher in the
Cherryville, N. C. school system.
If everybody in the world
would agree upon everythinir,
