Services were good throughout
Sunday. The Men’s Day program
was well enacted. Sunday School
opened as usual on time by the
tiollowing superintendents: Bros.
Charles JBrooks and Mack Moore
of St. Mary’s Baptist Church
serving as guest superintendent.
The school was almost filled to
its capacity with children, youths
and adults—“ Men’s Day of
Course.”
The morning service was in
spiring and full of reverence. The
, male chorus was superb in the
| rendition of songs. The Rev. J.
I A. F. Finlayson, pastor of Mace
donia Baptist Church, president
of the General Baptist State Con
vention, was minister of the
morning. His text was taken from
Genesis 1:26, “Let us make man
in our image,” etc. Much encour
agement was given the men con
cerning their great responsibility,
throughout his discourse. And the
singing! Well, I have described
it above, using one word.
Dr. G. W. Hawkins, president
of the local chapter of the NAACP
was the evening speaker. He ad
vised in his address the import
ance of friendship to all, seeing
people as human beings, instead
of races of men. His message was
full of eloquence and logic. More
than SI,OOO was realized. Thus
ended the efforts of Men’s Day
at Mt. Sinai. Thanks to all who
helped make it a success.
The pastor, Rev. Thomas, and
his wife will leave on July 20
for a short but much needed va
cation, we feel especially glad for
the pastor.
Come and worship with us any
time. You are welcome.
