LETTERS TO THE
EDITOR
Dear Reader — or Whomever
This May Concern:
In the course of conversation
among laymen and lay women of
Newberry a very pregnant ques
tion has arisen. Why are the
majority of the downtown
churches dark and without at
worship service on Sunday night?
And why is the mid-week prayer
service .which is the vital nerve
of every church been elimanted
in some? The answer predomin
ately lies in the lack of atten
dance and co-operative support
of the church’s membership.
Every pastor has tried to
maintain a Sunday night service
but due to indifference and un
concern the church official
boards of necessity eliminated
this service from its church pro
gram. In short the situation
has the earmarks and the re
sult of spiritual lethargy.
Some thought has been given
as to a solution. At the present
time the only down-town church
open for service on Sunday
night is the First Baptist;
Would the members of the Cen
tral Methodist, Lutheran Church
of the Redeemer, Associate Re
formed Presbyterian, Aveleigh
Presbyterian, St. liuke’s Episco-
al and the First Baptist member
ship be interested in a conbined
effort to have a union service,
alternating in each church with
the various pastors alternately
preaching every Sunday night?
If so will you commit your con
viction to your pastor or state
your desire to the writer.
Give this subject your pray
erful attention and your con
sideration may be a means of
reviving the spiritual interest
of our community in the neces
sity of a vital matter.
Sincerely,
MRS. C. C. HUTTO
