Dr. Wall, A Great Leader And Outstanding Minister For three and one-half years Dr. | Zeno Wall has lead the church j through the most telling period of j her history. There have been many J mile-stones along the pathway of: experiences during the period, but \ the greatest outstanding mark of j progress has Keen the erection of i the building, which lias entailed responsibility and required wise I leadership, tor the past year and j a half—the first demanding fine business sagacity and spiritual fer vor in preparing the people for the task, and the second in which was demonstrated marked skill in di recting the details during the con struction period. Throughout the entire program, Dr. Wall has kept U„ie membership w arm with a sense of deep spiritual ity, even though the membership has been worshipping outside the church building. He has often re peated: ‘'There are three things for which I have been praying and which I want to see during my lifetime: A wonderful auditorium and educational plant where peo ple will be led to Christ, a success ful Christian Junior college at Boil ing Springs and a revival in Shelby and community.’’ He has lived to see two of these wishes come to be a realization and already signs point toward a sweeping revival of religion In our town and community in the near future. 486 Added To Church. Since Dr. Wall came to the church, October 1, 1925. just three and one-half years ago. 486 peo ple have united with the church by letter and profession of faith in Christ It is interesting to note that he has performed 44 marriage ceremonies during the period and held approximately 300 funerals. He has walked with the people through sorrow and tragedies. Perhaps his greatest work has been in visiting the hospital, calling in the homes where sorrow reigned, and burying the dead. He has preached and conducted funerals in almost every church in the King's Mountain as sociation. Three Outstanding Milestones. Three outstanding milestones during Dr. Wall's pastorate in Shelby have been the three great and marvelous meetings which he led: First, the revival meeting held tinder a tent in South Shelby in which Rev. Rush Padgett, the Baptist pastor in South Shelby co operated. This meeting was held in May, 1926, soon after Dr. Wall’s arrival. Scores of souls were saved and many hundreds of people re quested prayer. In that same year on Thanksgiving Day the second great meeting was held at the fair grounds. Here hundreds of people front all vocations in life gathered to pay thanksgiving and praise to Almighty God for the. many signal favors during the past, year. The third meeting followed in June. 1927, when Dr. Scarborough, of the Southwestern Theological seminary, of Fort Worth, Texas, came and preached in a tabernacle on the vacant lot where now stands the commodious educational building. In this meeting scores of people reconsecrated themselves and a gTeat number were led to Christ. What a fitting beginning on the lot which was destined to be utiliz ed as it la today I While marvelous progress has been realized in the local field, the missionary zeal has not lessened. The church now stands fourth in North Carolina among other Bap tist churches in gifts to missions and Dr. Wall says that with the en larged program there is no rea son why the church should not move up nearer the first place in North Carol'iin. Former Pastorate. Previous to coming to Shelby, Dr. Wall held long and successful pas torates in several of the outstand ing fields in the Southern Baptist convention. Among the fields are. his long pastorale at Mississippi college, Clinton, Miss.. First Bap tist church, Columbia, Miss., and First Baptist church. Goldsboro, where he did a successful work be fore coming to Shelby. He Is much in demand by the chinches, col leges. Theological Seminaries and summer encampments for special addresses and evangelistic meetings, having spoken at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, Ky.. Baptist Bible Insti tute, New Orleans. Meredith col lege, Raleigh and in a great num ber of other institutions. However it is not conceded that he has yet reached his zenith. A resume ot the past and the prospects for the future, encourage both pastor and people to ieel that the greatest days of reaping for Christ and His K.ng dom lie in the future Only time will tell what fruitage will result from the efforts, vision and sacri fice of both pastor and people in this great field.
