Brogdon arose, greetra~K is congregation am> then se*lected his te^t from the thirtyseventh chapter of Ezekiel, ninth verse?Then said he unto me "prophesy unto the wind, prophesy,* son of man, and say unto the wind", etc. The minister's theme was "A Spiritual Revival". This sermon really was on ?ory bones in the valley," only treated from a different subject or theme. Tolay our ministers are taking the place of prophets of old and are prophesying to the world. It is or us to give heed to these admonitions and be npt like the Israelites. It was a warning0 and awakening sermon and .was heard by a-splendid au.'ience. The International Sunday school lesson Was indeed inspiring and nstructive. One hundred and seventeen scholars were present on last Sunday afternoon-aside from teachers and visitors. The lesson was vory impressive anj widely discussed. Rev. and Mrs. Brogdon are very active in this department of the church which means so much to us. A very interesting and timely paper was read by?Mr. R. E. Gadsdep, one of the ushers and a member of our junior choir. The subject from which he wrote was-"How" To Become A Christian'', taken from the subject of one of our recent lessons. Mr. Gadsi.en acquitted himself creditably and was complimented by the pastor, superintendent and others. "Cl/.jist enlightens the minds of his disciples," was the subject from which the pastor delivered the evening message. VSt. Luke d4r;'JV reads, "Then oporrwidie- their understanding, that they may understand the Scriptures." Od? minds and hearts were opened while the glad tidings were proclaimed by this mighty expounder of the gospel. This great sermon, closed "cut another joyous day in Zion. During the day many visitors were piescnt. We were in feed glad to have a group of fv yov.'tjr rv wis VaiV.T. frohi Chicago. Local visitors were present also. Remember that a hearty welcome ewr/ts all who may come. On b sb Monday night a Candle Lieht' Service was sponsored by Stewardess Rgard No, 2, Mrs. M. J. Alston, president. -A pif> irram was had and our junior chAr rendered several selections. / ! ANNOl V . THE OPE x I WOODS M< 1 X n 1'127?1929 M ?
