Background Scripture
? Acts 18:24 through 19:7;
1 Corinthians 1:10-17;3; 4:6
Devotional Reading
1 Corinthians 10:6-13.
Almost sA'en years ago I left the
pastorate of a wonderful congrega
tion where I had been the minister
thirteen years. In my last sermon to
this congregation. I said:
Let me make one thing clear: you
will not honor me by allowing
Calvary Church to go downhill after
fc my departure. My greatest satisfac
tion will always be, not in hearing
how poorly you have done when I
have left, but in how you grow on
from here. The vindication of my
work here will be in its endur
ance. ..Paul says, "so that in the
day of Christ I may be proud that I
did not run in vain or labor in
vain." If Calvary does not go
forward from this moment, my
| work will have been for nothing.
Apparently, the congregation
took this admonition to heart,
continuing to prosper and grow
under two subsequent pastors. Last
week the congregation celebrated
its 50th anniversary and the man
who served as interim pastor after 1
departed sent a letter in which he
spoke of his experience with this
congregation:
/ was struck by...the strong lay
I leadership that functioned during
that period...! was impressed by
the sense of "family " and rootage
that I found, people who knew each
other intimately, people who careil
and shared. Attendance did not
wane, the budget did not suffer
from malnutrition, the choir sang
beautifully. I was in essence privi
leged to see a community of
believers of Christ.
I You'll excuse me. 1 hope, if for a
moment 1 experience some pride in
reading those words. But perhaps
you'll ask: "Pride? But he never
even mentioned your name?" Oh.
but he did and in the best possible
manner. He assured me that my
work was not in vain.
Any of us who work in the church
- lay or clergy - must bear in mind
that, no matter how much recogni
tion we get from our congregation,
church school class, official board
or committee, it is what we plant,
water and nurture into growth that
is important.
When Paul wrote his first letter
to the church at Corinth, he made
reference to the factions that
existed there. Some people saw
themselves as "Paul's people."
others "Apollo's people." some
"Peter's people." It is understand
able that these people wished to
honor those who had helped them
so much. But Paul reminds them
that they belong to no teacher or
Apostle. They are "Christ's
people," and their church is the
product of the labors of many
different people. "1 planted.
Apoilos watered, but God gave
them growth." Paul and Apoilos
both made their contribution to
this church, but it was God alone
who was behind whatever success
they experienced.
Paul and Apoilos were fruitful in
their work for Christ because
apparently they understood what
often escapes us: "For we are fellow
workers for God. "

Library News
ATTENTION!!!
NEW RULES FOR LIBRARY
REGISTRATION
Age limit for library cards has
been raised from age 14 to 16 years
fof adult cards along with two
forms of identification: Proof of
address -- a recent communication
in the form of a letter or other mail
and also a driver's license if you
have one.
You will be asked from time to
time if your address has changed
and the new address, if any. will be
put on your existing card. No
library numbers will be changed.
NO FAMILY CARDS
If you are a minor or junior you
will have your personal card and
must tHecVbuf Books onTl. Same
for adults. Mommie, Daddy, sister
brother. Aunt Sue. Uncle Jim,
and/or all your friends will have to
have their own cards. We stress: do
not loan your card!
MINOR OR JUNIOR CARDS
Every youngster wishing to ob
tain a library card; kindergarten
and up to lb years must be
accompanied by a parent with
proof the person is a parent. You
may take a registration card home
so your parent can read all rules
and regulations before they sign
your card. Again, parents must
come in with you if you seriously
want a card to check out library
materials.
These new rules may sound
pretty firm but wars are never won
with slack rules, and the battle of
the over due, lost, and uncared for
book has to be fought and won.
You must help us by developing
good. firm, library habits. Our
weapons of learning pleasure, and
relaxation, (library materials) arc
out there somewhere, and the
battle is being lost because a
patron can't find that book, maga
zine, record, pamphlet, etc. be
cause you have loaned it, forgotten
it. lost it or just plain don't care,
now that you have used it for your
purpose.
Don't make others feel harsh
towards you. because you. the
patrons, are the only ones who can
help us keep everyone happy with
existing material always back on
time.
OVERDUE WORKSHOP
Mrs. Cameron, Mrs. Conoly.
and Mrs. McDiarmid spent the day
in Jacksonville, N.C.. Tuesday.
July 20. learning from an Overdues
Workshop. They report: most of
the libraries represented at the
meeting are having similar pro
blems with folks not returning
overdue material. Many ideas were
heard and as you can see we plan to
put some in action in Hoke County.
We wouldn't want our patrons to
get a case of the doldrums from
"same old routine."
Some librarians are taking long
overdue patrons to court. We hope
our folks will respect the free
service enough so we won't have to
carry it that far. It could be costly
for the library as well as the patron.
YOGI BEAR VISIT PLANNED
You may have heard that Yogi
Bear is coming to the library in
August;** far as we know, you are
right. Tlans at first were to have
him here August 10th but those

If you are behind in tilling all your
spaces with "JOAB" toot prints
