CUMMING METHODIST NEWS
| A church history of the Cum
ming Methodist Church has been
compiled by Mrs. Dean (Gladyse
Kennemore) Barrett, our church
historian. The church dates back
to the year 1835. Dr. A. M. Pierce,
the North Georgia Conference his
torian has this to say about the
- history, “The history of the Cum
ming Methodist Church reached me
today and I have read it with in
terest. Please express my great
appreciation to Mrs. Gladdyse Ken
"emore Barrett. She merits several
votes of appreciation from her
church.”
Everyone who receives a copy
will understand that Mrs. Barrett
has been faithful to the progress
of the church and has given re
cognition to those individuals and
families who have had a large part
in making the church what it is
today. It will be sent to the print
ers soon, and orders are now being
taken.
In addition to the commuity-wide
Easter Sunrise Service, the Cum
ming Methodist Church will com
memorate the death of our Lord

tizes the darkness and despair of
Calvarv: only those who know

IN MEMORY
Of my sonn Wilburn Gid Logglns
It has been two years since you
left us and fel lasleep to wait for
the day when you will have anew
body and life for ever more. We
think of you each day and night
often when every thing is stilled
we can see the vacant place that
never can be filled.
W would enjoy singing together
; n this world but that is nothing
f o compare with the singing over
there.
When we meet on Heavens shore
*o never have to part no more. We
do not understand why you had to j
leave us such early age, but we
feel that our loss is your eternal
gain. But when we all get to the
place he went to prepare for us
we will understand it better and
say well done my child.
