This coming week, May 6-13 is Home Week throughout the Southern Baptist Convention which is ‘made up of nearly peng po esearnd and over 27,000 urehes i en . covering 22 Specidl services will be held in the First Baptist church tomor- row and Sunday, May 13. Recog- nitions will be made of all famil- ies and homes of the church mem- bership. Tomorrow morning the pastor, Rev. George M. Ray, will speak on the subject, “Building My Church,” Special music by the choir will be rendered. Sun- day evening, the pastor will speak on, “True Repentence.” The Lord’s Supper will be observed by candlelight at the close of the evening service. Prior to the Lord's Supper, there will be a “Dedication Service” conducted by the pastor, at which time everyone wishing to rededicate his and her life to the Lord will be given the opportunity. These are perilous times in which we live, and the Almighty God is calling men and women,} boys and girls, to rededicate their| lives to the Kingdom’s Cause. When the world is at its worst God calls men to be at their best.! No half-way Christian nor church Let’s Face It by GEORGF M. RAY The charcter found at home al- ways is carried over into all other areas of life. Of all places where home character is predominatly released is in the life of the church. Junior lets go his fists and bites with his teeth because Mother and Daddy let him get by | with it at home. The temper finds full and sweet release at church, but if this same temper flew the coop at the office or in school or ; almost anywhere else, there’d be a sentence to serve in prison.

Rogers Sermon i Mrs. Tom Whitley * Will Be At The Console Sunday Morning Mrs. Tom Whitley will be at the console Sunday morning at the First Presbyterian Church. She will play for her prelude, * | “Prelude,” by Freyer, and for her offertory, “Ave Maria,” by Franz. Mr. Harland Merriam will direct ather’s “A Mighty Fortress Is Our God.” Mr. Rogers will preach on an | old and familiar Army challenge, | “Halt! Who goes there?” Since Paul likened Christian service to soldiering, it might be weil] to be suddenly stopped with the chal- | lenge, that we might better in- he choir in the singing of : spect the territory we have in- habited and check on the environ- ment in which we find curselves. Mr. Rogers explains this rele- tionship by saying that to be a good soldier one must do guard duty. Walking “post” is some- times a lonely and dangerous duty. In fact soldiering is danger- ous. When assigned amout-post in the late hours of the night, or wee ' early hours of the morning, every | sound ‘or flutter of a leaf, send a chill through the most ' hardéned and ‘seasoned soldier.

No Christian can hope to i challenge the enemy without full ' information regarding the plan of | salvation and : the tremendous cost in the sacrifice of Jesus that | mankind might have life. When | Jesus was tempted following his ' was able to stop the Devil by : being well informed on his orders, fed it but of course his Scripture. When that was quoted, the Devil never question- resorted to . | another plan ahd finally left him for a season. ; In addition to keeping out thieves and prowlers, the sentry ' serves as a source of information. ‘the sentry and directed to their _ place they may be seeking.
