Walter and I especially want
to take this time and method
io tell the men of First
Baptist and the men of other
churches that donated labor,
time and prayer, that our
vocabulary is too small to
tell you how grateful we are
to you as a group and
individually for the help that
was given us in our hour of
need. We still haven't
completed our addition, but
we can use it. It will take
time and prayer to do so.
but. if God be willing we will
be able to do so.
Due to several incidents
- that have happened in the
last few weeks in our
‘ community, you too must be
aware of the need for
spiritual help here and the
church is the place we
to offer this help.
We thank God that Sanger
has church men and leaders
of such character as we
have. We won't name
anyone as we don't want to
miss anyone, but we do want
to thank you all.

Pastor and membership of
Gallilee.
