Visitors wtQ come from far and planter, legislator, and later
wide when oar story is publi- governor of South Carolina, at
ctand and many of our attrac- the time of secession. This
sion and its
the roee gardens for which it
named, became a state park in
1900. A caretaker lives on the
grounds and will be pleased to
guide you on a tour of the Old
structure.
Rose Hill was built in 188&,
and a few modifications were
made over the years. The porch
es were added in 1800. Some fea
tures well worth noting are the
mansion’s fanlights, impressive
carved doors and the beautiful
spiral staircase in the main hall.
Actually, it is quite modest for
a mansion. It is attractive from
the outside, and the landscaped
grounds are striking as yon ap
proach up the long drive.
There is much work still to be
done, although some forniture
and a few original painhngs
belonging to the Gist family have
been brought to the mansion.
Such personal items as Mrs.
Gist’s wedding dress, her sewing
machine. Governor Gist’s leath
er trunk, and the massive old
four-poster bed can be seen in
the upstairs master bedroom. To
those interested in this important
period of South Carolina history,
it should be a challenge to re
store Rose Hill to its original
elegance.

Two Christians, one from India and another from New Zealand,
met aboard a missionary ship. They were brothers in Christ, but
could not speak to each other. They Just pointed to their Bible and
smiled.
Then a happy thought occurred to the Indian. He exclaimed
“Hallelujah!” The new Zealander, in delight, cried out, “Amen!”
Those two words were the beginning to them of one language and
one speech.^’,
God is the Father of all men whether Jew or Gentile. As chil
dren in the kingdom of the heavenly Father, we think of all men
as brothers—in understanding, in sympathy, in good will, and in
helpfulness. Our mission is to bring men together in love and
worship around the cross, that we may be filled with love for the
same Redeemer and have the same hope of heaven. All those
who accept the lordship of Jesus Christ gain admittance to the
same privileges and hopes.

their doors open during the day
in order that worshipers may
come in for a time of quiet and
prayer. • x
Many churches now have
small chapels which are open
during the day and often at
night. Our Prayer Chapel at the
Little Church on the Lane, of
which I am senior pastor, is
open and lighted. Its doors are
never closed.
Over the door in the main
sanctuary of our Little Church
on the Lane is this inscription
from the Psalms, “Be still, and
know that I am God.”
A church symbolises the proa,
ence of God the Infinite.' The
cross on altars and church
spires is a symbol of God's love
and His gift of sahratfon through
Jesus Christ to all men who win
accept this gift.
The week-end is the weak end
for many, particularly for those
who do not go to church.
The Saturday night party all
too often lands the participants
in Jail, the hospital, and some
times, in the graveyard.
The church is ttw greatest
safety factor in your community.
Use It generously, and the week
end will besome the strong end.
