Among The Baptists
South Carolina
By -William M. Bowman !
- - iSI
' - I
Last week I told you I was
going to write about the impending
^Crisis fneing the Baptist, in SouL_ ^
Carolin.
T-his Crisis is an endowment for
Morris College. More than three ,,
- tni
years ago a campaign was start- .
ed by the Baptist to raise 1100,000'
dollars for the endowment. "Com-I
mittees met, plans wore made and ! ^ j
goal set. How well have we kept ge
these plans or met the goals 4s tor ?
you to answer. : ^
We Must Meet Our Goals I n ^
1955. It is a shame and a disgrace
for 375,000~Ihrptist to take such a
long time to raise-such * small a- 3"
mount of moneyr-Mif^-Hewnran ami <
' I were remarking a few days ago (ju
ahout h o w President O. R.
Ruehen had aged so in the last tf)
few -years. We Baptist are- a funny (jt,j
lot, we elect leaders and expect
llll'lii Lu wuik mil ai jo*-m ilhuul uui
support. Miracles do not happen, .
great things,can only lie acconT="~t7i
plished by hard work . se,
r--.ii ? -
4..vr. i v.uuckc cannot no en- ()(|
(lowed with speech, making o r
shouting or great sermons except j ri.(
they are chancelled ^nto irrrmry
raising, effort toward the goal.
Our forefathers have left us a
great heritage in Christian tallica- 2
" tion. They made, "Bricks with t.jc.
straw."'We are living in one o f tlx
the prosperous and?iic.miniiiir>pn- |qi
* riods in America -Ave. earn more pr
salary, we wear better clothes, we i
build finer homes, we ride in finer mt
cars and we bank more money for Mi
ourselves now, and than we ever jm
have in the history of our nation, avi
hut the said is that we are giving tin
less toward christian education tin
?and 111 jssion than our fathers' he- is
fore us. If we are stingy with the
matterial Messing the Lord will a
take it away from us and give i t J)i
to the ten talent christians. 21:
Let us awake and arise BaptistL-aLand
meet t.he challenge of today.
The goal of 100,000 dollars must tei
"be reached by Thanksgiving. 1
can be done. It must be done, tui
