3 Churches Os

Joint Service
PORTERDALE — The se
cond Community Thanksgiving
Service in Porterdale was held
at the Porterdale Presbyterian
Church on Wednesday evening,
November 25, at seven o’clock.
Members of the Presbyterian,

es united in a service of praise
and thanksgiving conducted by
the Rev. Irving G. Rudolph.

Jr. read the Scripture lesson
from Psalm 33:8 — 22 and led
in prayer.
“God Knows We Need To
Give Thanks" was the sermon
topic chosen by the Rev. H. H.
Dillard who reviewed the story
of the First Thanksgiving, read
the 1959 Proclamation of Pre
sident Eisenhower, and remind
ed his audience of reasons for
gratitude in everyday situations
and experiences. He also em
phasized the lack of praise and
thanksgiving in the lives of all
people - who continually take
for granted the abundance and
blessings of God bestowed on
America and Americans.
Mr. Fred Connell, Choir Di
rector of the Baptist Choir, led
his group in a hymn of praise
magnified by the joy and
deeply inspired feeling of this
group. Theirs was a definite
contribution to this service.
After the congregation lifted
their voices in singing “Come,
Ye Thankful People, Come”,
the benediction closed the im
pressive hour of fellowship and
praise.
