SAT., MARCH 13. 1976 THE CAROLINA TIMES - 19 ' ' I LOOKED AND I SAW By Rev. C. R. Stone WRITERS FORUM "God's Little Giants" Who are' we as leaders of the truth to forever exclude the "Little People? " The little people, who make up the mass majority here and there are God's life-lines for a workable world. The idea of God's structure concerning little people will not . be changed with regard to success even if men should travel around the world in an all-out effort to discover new ways for answers to the world's problems. Those of us who search for new trends of hopw will live to regret the time that we have lost in our dynamic attempts. Further, the little giants are indirectly responsible for all successes we have already enjoyed and shall be the main stream if we receive true benefits in the future. Those of us who insist on gearing our hopes in the absence of the little giants' concern must encounter serious difficulties not very far from us than we have anticipated if anticipated at all in the first place. It is not always the truth that some leaders do not posses knowledge of what they are doing in minds and hearts to ignore the little giants, but rather suffer internal defeats than to observe that the little giants need to be benefited both internally and externally. Some people seem to rejoice when the rough winds of life's evils are blowing toward others but when these evil winds begin to reverse their forces, then and only then do some persons whos evidence are of serious concern.

Y y ' THE FIRST WHITE WOMAN TO JOIN THE NATION OF ISLAM, Dr. Dorothy Dorsey, 36, now named Dorothy 13X, looks every bit the nun she had planned to be in the early 6r"s as she chats with a friend during Savior's Day celebration in Chicago. Dorothy 13X calls her conversion from Catholicism to Islam a "natural stage of her personal growth. Her religious garb marks a conversion to a faith to which no white could belong until last year, the Nation of Islam, which for years denounced whites as "blue eyed devils." Dr. Dorsey has a Ph.D in sociology and anthropology. (UPI). i MRS. PAULINE BOXLEY The Missionary Departments of Union Baptist Church have achieved monumental success in making ghe 79th anniversary year an enormous observance. Before the joys of the 78th observance had been fully savored, plans for the 79th salute were posted. This year, the church salutes its Missionary Departments. Theme: "Reach Out and Touch.' A dedication in memorium to Mrs. Pauline Fuller Love. The Senior Department has always been among the first organizations to make noteworthy contributions to whatever major endeavors the church sponsors. Since Feb.. 1955, the Senior Missionary Circle has been making handsome contributions to the church. Du'ring the aforementioned date, the Seniors dedicated $500.00 to the Building Fund program at a crucial stage of the church's outreach; this amount of cash was received from a pageant entitled "The Twelve Tribes of Israel." At this time, Mrs. Pauline Love had been president for more than 30 years. She served a total of 50 years; a faithful, dedicated minister of missions for a half century. It has been gratifying to observe how actively involved "the angels of mercy" have updated the evangelical aspects of the whole church; thus, making missions a banner year in the home, the church and community. Special emphasis in the area of self-awareness is making the ministry of missions a hugh success. Aside from the regular or routine works the Missionary Departments have utilized the 5th Sunday, generally classified as Missionary Day" and by George B. Russ staged three well-rounded services during the day. October, 1975, the Senior Missionary Circle celebrated its 79th anniversary with a highly informative program, with an added attraction of well-known singing groups including choirs and chorouses of the UBC Music Department. Mrs. Vera Farmer was program coordinator for the 79th Observance .Program chairman ; Mrs. Pauline Hart. February, 1976, the Youth Department launched its newly reorganized Youth Department in a two fold service entitled 'Have a Heart for Missions" featuring the MCCU Pentecostal Choir and Miss Paulette Everette, president of the NCCU Pentecostal Fellowship. Part-2 of the program consisted of a Coronation Ceremony. Candidates vying for the O I v ,l MRS. JOHNNIE B. MCLESTER coveted crown for "Have a Heart for Missions' were: Shawn Jeter, Frank Pratt, Jr., and Willie Muse; winners were according to the above arrangement of contestants. Mrs Pauline Bosley was coordinator and chairman of the mid-winter presentation. The second mid-winter presentation by the Missionary Department was executed Feb. 29, by the Senior Missionary Circle, Mrs. Pauline Hart presided over this semi-musical program. Mrs. J. B. McLester, president of the Woman's Home and Foreign Missions was guest speaker. The gracious Mrs. McLester chose as a subject 'According to your faith, Reach out and Touch." Text; 1 John 1:3. The beautiful educator and world traveler spoke to the gathering IIRS. ELLERBEE ANDfSQL SNODAfeELL of missionary workers as ' long time workers and revered friends." In giving an explaination of her work as president, she ably informed and enriched the minds of the missionary workers on all levels as to how they might ' Reach Out and Touch.' "Fellowship with God" is a must. We cannot make manifest to others the true meaning of the Ministry of Missions until we have the fellowship with the Father, and with his Son, Jesus Christ. The Missionary, according to his own faith, must "Reach out and touch" Not according to the faith of others, but by his own faith is he able to reach out and touch, meaningfully. Forgiveness is another positive quality the missionary must develop. The work abides with sources that try one's soul. But we are not to allow these abusives to deter us in our evangelical work. We must be as faithful and just to forgive as God has forgiven us through his Son Jesus Christ. The amiable, affable, tall, statuesque Mrs. McLester's rippling voice was musical as she emphasized the point of ' Lifting As you Climb." We are to life as we climb if we are to fulfill the message of the cross as demonstrated by Jesus Christ whosedeath and suffering on the cross lifted men out their sins and degradation. With out stretched arms, one arm slanting earthward, the other arm raised toward the heavens, the speaker admonished the congregants to become aware of what is going on around us. We need to be aware of constant changes everywhere; in the home, the church, the school, the community and in the world if we are to be effective in our efforts to "reach out and touch.' Pulpit associates accompanying the illustrous Mrs. J. B. McLester were: Mrs. Emily Murray, Mrs. Martha Cozrt, Ms. Annie M. Dunigan, supervisor of the Youth Department; Mrs. Isabelle Holder, extended a warm, friendly welcome to Mrs. McLester and other visitors. Dr. David Bell extended greetings and best wishes in behalf of Bell-Yeager F. W. B. Church. Choirs appearing during the evening were: The Bell-Yeager Young Adult Choir, The UNB Helping Hand Missionary Choir, Russ-Sanders Singers, UBC Young Adult Choir. Offertory Prayer was conducted by Mrs. Snoda Bell. Mrs. Lena Ellerbee, president of the Senior Circle, summarized the meet as a rewarding experience, and reate rated that kindness and forgiveness are virtu res the world can use in great quanities. It is not always easy to be kind, but it is always pleasing in the sight of God. Industry and electric utilities which burn gas as boiler fuel, are expected to bear the brunt of winter shortages, says the Federal Energy Administration.
