METHODIST MINISTERS A Paragraph of Praise for Each of Those who HAVE SERVED IN ROME c or the Pasi Year- Conference Convenes Here Next Month and Bishop Haygood, the Self Made man Will Preside In view of the forthcoming annu al conference which conveins in Rome next month, a few words ■about Methodist ministers will not be out of season. It is never known v hero a Methodist preacher will be sent, or when the change will oc cur.’No doubt there will be a dumber of changes among the preachers of the Rome District, at least some. t I t Much good work has been done during the past year by the faith ful men of God assigned to this field of service. Revival fires have blazed throughout the entire dis trict and many souls have been b f ,m into the Kingdom of God. No where this side of eternity can t he good done be rightly esti mated. Such work grows not dim by rhe elapse' of time but becomes more and more beautifully bright as time passes in to eternity. More enduring than bra ss and loftier than the regal majesty of the pyr amids. tit The Conference in question will be presided over by Bishop A. G. Haygood, one of the braniest inec connected with Southern Method ism. His magnificent mind has given to the church of God many great plans and grand concep tions. He is no stranger in Geor gia. noris he unknown or unloved in Rome. He is, strickly speaking, a grand man. Commencing life an humble struggling boy, he worked his way to the front, rendering God and humanity his best ser vice, and now he stands upon em inance where he reflects the Gos pel light upon the church at large, t I t Rev. Thomas F. Pierce, the able Presiding Elder of the Rome district, needs no introducing or words of praise from my feeble pen. The mere name is immortal. He is the son of the grand old Dr. Lovic Pierce of saintly memory who preached the Gospel in Geor gia over seventy years . His broth er Bishop George Foster Pierce has gone to his reward, was a man of prominent ability and eloquence. Presiding Elder Pferce has done great service to the church, and this year his district has presper ■•ed. I I f Rev. Joel T Gibson, D D , of First church, stands breast to Breast with any man in the North ' Georgia Conference. He is honor ed and !®ved by all and as a speak er he is almost matchless. His lovely Christian virtues at once enshrines living in the hearts of his congregations, and to love and admire him is but to know him. 1 nder his able ministrations the First church has prospered. All hope sincerely for his return. t I t Rev. Geo. W. Duvall has served Second church three years and he has made them a fine pastor. Ever about his Masters business he has added many to the church and re claimed many who had wandered from the tender Shepherds fold. His members love him and are ev- f ‘ r with him in every good word and wonk. It is feared the Bishop will not return him for another year. -t I i Third church which has been so ably and faithfully served by that sweet spirited man, Rev W. S. Stevens, has made great advance ment during the year, and if they loose him at the next conference bey will loose a gem in the ser- Vlce °f the Lord. His marked con- H, < ration, his scholarly sermons and Ilia Christly spirit acterised him in all his ministra tions. + + + + + * East Rome circuit under the pas torate of Rev. M. L. Troutman has made much improvement. Mr. 1 routman has evidenced to the world and the church that he is commissioned of God to proclaim his eternal \\ ord, by the manner in which he reaches the consciences of men. No man ever espoused the ministry with brighter prospects than glie. Consecrated, able and eloqui nt, he holds his hearers en raptured from first to last. He will enter Conference. I I I Bev. Joseph A. I.ewell is known throughout the conference as a great worker ana an earnest, logi cal speaker and agood pastor. His pastorate of the North Rome cir cuit, this year has been a most prosperous one. Many souls have been brought to the Savior, ready and able and willing to save. Rev. S. A. Hairlo, better known as “Gus,” has made the Rome circuit one of the most efficient' pastors it has ever had. He is ever on fire with love for God and his work and the church has prospered in his hands. Among his “own people” he has faithfully broken to them the bread of eternal life, and all hope for his return. + I I Among those who will seek en terence into Conference at its next session are Revs. J. W. Bale, 0. L. Millican am) E. N. Jones. Each of these are young men who seem ingly have sparkling! futures in the service of the jLord. As local ministers they have made faithful “watchmen on Zion's walls” and we bespeak for them a life fraught; with sweet in fluence and good works. Yes, God has blessed the churches in Rome this year, and the Jthings which dimness of time obscures shall be revealed bv the light of eternity, | the names of those faithful men of God shall be written, not on tablets of bronze or stone, but on ‘‘the fedily tablets of the heart ane unfading pages of the soul.” P.
