REVIVAL RECALLS
SERIES LONG AGO
Dr. Minor I o Preach At
Antioch After 27
Years
Dr. Carl W. Minor, pastor of the
First Baptist churfh here, will deliv
er a series of <?rmons in Antioch
church near Americus, where 27
years ago, when he was a young stu
dent at Mercer working his way
through college to become a min
ister, he was invited to preach in a
retvival service. This series will be
gin shortly.
The church at Antioch then had
bqen closed for one year, and during
that time had been without a pastor,
a service, a Sunday school, or organ
ized religious influence. A number
of the good people of the communi
ty, hearing of the young minister’s
earnestness, requested his presence
among them, in. the hope that a gen
uine revival would result.
After holding the series of serv
ices for five days, 18 persons became
converted and united with the church.
From the revival the interest was
awakened among the members, old |
atid new, and the new and better
Aintioch rose, uptil today it has a
membership of 75, with services held
ill the monthly with Sunday
school each Sunday morning and
niid-week prayer services as a supple
ment.
The church in which Dr. Minor
preached was burned several years
ago, and in its stead a new and mod
ern building has been erected as a
monument to the untiring efforts of
a united religious people who are
proud of their achievements.
Rev. J. H. Wyatt, pastor of the
church at Antioch, will assist Dr.
Minor in the services. A number of
Americus people who (retain their
membership there will attend the
services.

Folks.” There is a sense in which
there are np. single-faced folks; he
would be a man of iron who turns
to the woman he loves the same face
he shows to his business competitors.
No doubt the face of Jesus was dif
ferent when he drove the money
changers from the Temple and when
he held out merciful hands to bless
little children. In this sense,the best
people are two-faced, and ought to
glory in it. It is needless to say, this
is not Hie kind to be discussed in
the talk Sunday night.
