Stone of Help
By: Charles E. Hooper
Jerusalem Church is located
eight miles from Rincon, Geor
gia. It is a red brick building
that was completed in 1796. It
has a white-box-like steeple
above the front of a high
pitched roof. This old church,
in its setting of moss-covered
trees, is the only building of
the once thriving Lutheran
settlement of New Ebenezer.
The trustees of the colony of
Georgia invited the persecuted
Salzburgers of Bavaria to come
to Georgia, promising to pay
their expenses, to allot each
family fifty acres of land and

CARD OF THANKS
I would like to express to
all my friends in Covington

to provide for them until crops
could be produced.
The seventy-eight who came
in 1734 were so pleased to have
a home that they named their
town Ebenezer (Hebrew for
“stone of help”), but the soil
proved so unproductive that
despite the arrival of one
hundred and fifty more re
fugees the town did not pros
per.
In 1736, the colonists began
to migrate to a high ridge near
the Savannah River, where
they formed another settle
ment and called it New Ebene
zer. As other colonists arrived,
the new town grew rapidly and
its silk culture prospered.
During the American Revo
lution when New Ebenezer was
occupied by the British, houses
were burned, gardens were
destroyed and the church was
used as a hospital. Efforts
made after the Revolutionary
War to regain its former pros
perity were defeated by the
complete failure of the silk in
dustry and the rising import
ance of Savannah located some
thirty miles down river.
Today in the Rincon section
of Georgia, the influence of
the Salzburgers is still quite
evident ... in the architecture
. . . farms . . . churches and
social activities. Each year a
nation wide re-union of des
cendants of these early Bava
rians gather at Rincon.
In this same general area
was once Mulberry Grove
Plantation, the home of Nath
aniel Greene, Revolutionary
hero. Located on Rice Hope
Plantation Road, it was here
that Eli Whitney, a guest of
the Greene’s, was given his
idea for inventing the cotton
gin.
Ask your local service sta
tion operator to give you the
best and most direct route to
Rincon and the “Saizburger
section” of Georgia. You’ll find
your visit most enjoyable and
interesting especially so if you
stop youi - car for a while and
chat with some of the des
cendants.

“The Apostle of Grace"
Did you know that St. Paul
was chosen by God as the
apostle of grace?
He was God’s great example
of grace, the “chief of sinners”
saved by grace (I Tim. 1:12-
16).
To him was committed “the
dispensation of the grace of
God” (Eph. 3:2).
He was sent forth to pro
claim “the gospel of the grace
of God” (Acts 20:24).
He wrote far more about
grace than any other Bible
writer.
All his epistles open or close
(or both) with the salutation
“Grace be to you.”
He declares: We have re
demption through Christ’s
blood, the forgiveness of sins

according to the riches of His
grace” (Eph. 1:7).
He shows how this grace was
planned for believers in ages
past: “Who hath saved us and
called us with an holy calling,
not according to our works, but
according to His own purpose
and grace which was given us
in Christ Jesus before the
world began” (II Tim. 1:9).
He shows how this grace will
be ours in ages to come: “That
in the ages to come, He might
show the exceeding riches of
His grace in His kindness to
ward us through Christ Jesus”
(Eph. 2:7).
He shows how this grace is
greater than all our sins:
"Where sin abounded grace did
much more abound” (Rom. 5:
20).
He shows how grace gives
us a righteous standing before
God: “Being justified freely by
His grace, through the redemp
tion that is in Christ Jesus”
(Rom. 3:24).
He shows how God’s grace
(Best Coverage: News, Pictures and Features)
has given believers a position
in heaven: “(He) hath made us
to sit together in heavenly
places in Christ Jesus ... for
by grace are ye saved, through
faith . . . .” (Eph. 2:6, 8).
He shows how God’s grace is
sufficient for our difficulties
and can help us to live consis
tent Christian lives: “My grace
is sufficient for thee” (II Cor.
12:9). “And God is able to
make all grace abound
toward you, that ye, al
ways having all sufficiency in
all things, may abound to every
good work” (II Cor. 9:8). Ac
cept salvation “by grace,
through faith” as “the gift of
God” (Eph. 2:8,9).
