DADE COUNTY AREA LEADERSHIP TRAINING SCHOOL A SUCCESS The Dade County Methodist Fifth Sunday Fellowship (an organization composed of all the Methodist churches in Dade County) recently sponsored the Dade County Area Leadership Training School, which was said to be one of the most success¬ ful projects ever attempted by the combined efforts of the Methodist churches. The school was held at the Trenton church, the center of the county, from Jan. 21 through Jan. 25. Ten of the 11 churches participated in the school with a total enrollment of 103 and 88 persons received credit cards of recognition. The total number of persons attending was 133. The school offered courses that would include every leader in the church . The courses taught wer: The Work of the Local Church, by C. E. Lundy; Music in Chris¬ tian Education, by Rev. John Guerry; the Children’s Division Of the Methodist Church, by Mrs. W. M. Seymour; Under¬ standing Youth, by Mrs. C. E. Lundy; the Methodist Youth Fellowship, by Rev. George E. Naff; the Teachings of Jesus, by Rev. Robert L. Hilten. Dr. Lundy divided his group into the four commissions one night and brought in the district lead¬ ers a to w meet with each group. Rev . w. M. Seymour met with the Commissions, Rev. Gordon sterchi with the Commission on Education, Rev. Ernest Duggan with the Commission on Evang¬ elism and Mr. Faye Prigmore met with the Lay Leaders and the Commission on Finance, There were 45 enrolled in Dr. Lundy’s class. Another night Dr. Lundy brought in Mr. Clyde Mack, an architect, who talked with members of churches where plans were being made to build. In previous years, the people from the churches in Dade County tried to participate in ,the district school in Chatta¬ nooga but because of the dis¬ tance there were very few who could attend. Plans have already been made to have a school in the county every year, working with the district school in setting dates and securing instructors.
