Class Names
New Officers
Keitt Purcell has been named
president of the Neil Truesdell
Sunday School class of Aveleigh
Presbyterian Church, succeeding
A1 Weigle. This class represents
the Adult Fellowship group of the
church. The other officers are A1
Busby, vice-president; Agnes
Armfield, secretary, and Billy Mc-
Swain, treasurer. The new officers
were installed by the minister and
teacher of the class, Dr. Neil
Truesdell.
Group leaders are Lewis Davis,
Blanche Felker, Myra Trefsgar,
and Sarah Nichols. These leaders
will direct the activities and inter
ests of the 85 members of the
class, including the devotionals
for each Sunday morning.
The new president has expres
sed a keen interest in attendance
for the year 1961. It is his be
lief that the class has been a
means of strong spiritual growth
to those w r ho are regular in their
attendance. The class has been of
great value to the total life of
the church. “If the members of
the class will be faithful in their
attendance,” Mr. Purcell said,
“their own lives will be richly
blessed and through them the to
tal program of the church Vill be
strengthened.”
In order to affect this, the pres
ident has appointed an Attend
ance committee with Dr. Van And
erson as chairman and the other
members are Nita Frazier, Vivian
Long and Herschel Kemper. Van
Anderson stated that he and his
committee have made plans to
ward a high attendance record.
The class meets in the Assem
bly room of the church at 9:45
each Sunday morning. The lesson
is broadcast every Sunday, ex
cept the second Sunday in each
month. Many people throughout
the city and county have expres
sed appreciation for these broad
casts and it is felt that a real
spiritual need is being met as the
lessons reach those who are not
able to attend their own classes
and churches. The class also spon
sors the “Minute of Hope.” This
has been in operation for a number
of years. By phoning 2163 any
person can receive a short mes
sage of encouragement and pray
er at any hour of the day or
night. Dr. Truesdell puts a mes-
