Paroles Commissioner
Addresses MBU Banquet
The Hoke County Missionary
Baptist Union held its first Spring
Banquet Friday at Gibson
Cafeteria.
The guest speaker was Dr. J.J.
Johnson, pastor of Fairmont Mis
sionary Baptist Church. Dr.
Johnson also serves as N.C. state
parents commissioner.
The theme, "Leadership Accor
ding to God's Will," was used as
his subject. In the message Dr.
Johnson challenged leaders to take
a positive stand on issues and to
help make this world a better place
in which to live.
He stated, "Man messed up
God's world, and it's man's
responsibility to straighten it out."
In essence he stated that the
world's problems will not be solv
ed until problems have been solved
in the home, church and communi
ty.
He emphasized the importance
of Christians having enough guts
to face issues and not shift respon
sibility to someone else, to be able
to negotiate, and, above all, to be
able to share.
He said that when things aren't
right, Christians should be able to
work to make them right and con
cluded by reading one of his
writings, "The Autopsy of a Dead
Church."
Mrs. Nellie Flowers served as
presiding officer.
Kev. J.W. Gorham introduced
Dr. Johnson, and Rev. James Kel
ly responded after the message.
Several of Hoke County's
leading citizens appeared on the
program. Solos were sung by
Russell McAllister 111 and dinner
music was provided by Dr. Willis
McNeire.
Special guests were recognized
by Mrs. patricia McKellers, and in
cluded several elected county and
city officials as well as candidates
for public office.
Guests from out of town includ
ed Rev. Wilson Terry, mayor pro
tern of Red Springs, Rev. Sidney
Lory, candidate for the House of
Represetatives, and AJanice
Gerold, Chairman, Cumberland
County Human Relations Ad
visory Commission.
