In the midst of thiS "rejoicing we gathered in ?l. our churches or around heartha u i nod I IJ1CS ^ vvttiuii pci?>:> iniu matory and to greet 1937 as it glid? ed into existence from behind the curtain of time, bearing its sealed casket. Each has wondered What secret is contained herein ' ? for him. Under the spell of this blessing surrounded with awe ano v uncertainty we have pledged our^ V? selves to new and nobler tasks. Whatever these pledges were bas _ icly, they were aimed at winning the approval of our fellowmen am the blessings of God. ;r May a fellow laborer remind yoi that no resolution can be' far reaching npr satisfying unless it carries with it the hearty support of the objectives for which eui Baptist Educational and Mission ; - ary convention stands and sets ar ters at Laurens was but a pittance its goal to accomplish. The help gave the aged minis nevertheless it told those old vet erans of tho cross that they ha* not been forgotten. Some of thos, ~ helped have since fallen asleep but others have stepped up to fill thoi broken ranks. Let us includt these in our budget for' 1937 ant ?- - take an offering for them at on* I of our services each month bring ing or sending it "to the conven ! ? tion in May.
