AMMA, WV 25005 A weekend Gospel Meeting, September
29 October 1, at Shock, WV was the first one in the new building,
and the building was filled. The meeting was attended by people
from fourteen congregations. The church seems to have taken a
road to growth and continued good influence in Central West Virginia.
Vernon Kerns is the local preacher and is sound in the faith.
It was a joyous experience to again be with them in this meeting.
I held a meeting in their old building in 1942. They are a happy
group of Christians and show potential for a good work. To God
be the glory! We wish them Godspeed. Blaine Cook, PO Box 13.

WESTON, WV 26452 Enclosed find check for another
year of West Virginia Christian. I have received every
issue of this very fine paper. It was my privilege to do the preaching
in a Gospel Meeting at 'River' in Upshur County in August. I have
been going there every third year for nearly forty years. Was
in another meeting in Franklin, WV the first five days of October.
This is a small congregation but each member is dependable. Every
member attended every service except Sunday evening when one had
to work. However, she took vacation for the remainder of the time
so she could be present at each service. I call this dedication
that you do not often see anymore. Roy Pratt, 807 Camden Ave.
EAST POINT, GA 30344 I hope all is well with you
and your family and all your fellow workers. Thank you for continuing

to pray for you ... Thanks again for all that you are doing to
spread the Gospel. Ray Jackson, 1068 Jefferson Ave.
