local Minister Gains Recognition
HIGH POINT - With
honor and commendation
the members of First
Emmanuel Baptist Church
of High Point gave praise to
their beloved pastor and his
lovely and devoted wife on
Sunday, November 17.
It was the commoration
of their 36th anniversary.
Because of the fine and
commendable service Rev.
D.D. Mason has given to
his church and community,
THE TRIBUNAL AID is
honored and happy to
publish their written word.
We, the officers and
members of the First
Emmanuel Baptist Church
of High Point, N.C., are
happy to honor our Beloved
Pastor, The Rev. D.D.
Mason and his wife, Mrs.
Lizzie Mason.□
Rev. Mason is a widely
known Minister, who has
gained the respect of both
men and women, boys and
girls, blacks and whites
throughout the city.
Since coming to us in the
1939, our Pastor and his
wife have done very
outstanding work in the
church, as well as in our
community.
Under their leadership, 2
choirs, 3 chorus, 4 usher
boards, 1 nursery board,
the B.T.U. and a Mission
ary Society consisting of
nine circles have been
organized, 12 Ministers
have been ordained. Our
present church was built in
1958 and we have taken in
approximately 1300 new
members since 1939. We
have out-grown that Sanc
tuary and our new
Sanctuary was completed
October, 1972. We also
have 2 licensed Ministers.
Rev. & Mrs. Mason
always remember the sick
and shut-ins by visiting
their homes and the
hospital every Wednesday
and Saturday nights. And
on many occasions, when
our hearts are saddened,
they speak comforting
words to us. When our
burdens become heavy.
mm
w
they always bear them with
us.
The doctor ministers to
the sick body, the lawyer
takes care of legal matters,
the teacher develops the
mental capacities, but the
minister deals with the
whole man in that he plays
the greatest role on earth.
