Preacher Gets Pounding
Last Tuesday evening about six
o’clock the people of McCrory
gave us one of the biggest pound
ings we have ever had, but praise
the Lord we are not sore over
j the effects of it. I have had a
i few poundings during my life
! that made me feel so bad that I
| couldn’t walk for a few days but I
am thankful that this one came
from different hands. We would
like, in these few lines to thank
our friends for all the good
things they brought us. We are
thankful for your gifts, and we
appreciate your love, friendship
and thoughtfulness of us. Our
hearts were made to rejoice over
the fact that these gifts did not
only come from the members of
our Church, but from all the
other Churches. I am sure that
God is pleased over the fact that
we, as His children, can all work
hand in hand to the up-building
of His kingdom.
Come to see us at any time,
make youself at home when you
come, and do not hesitate to call
upon us for any service we can
render you.
Yours in the Master’s work,
S. M. Yancey and Family.
