The Ohio Independent Baptist, October 1953

• our ave an ncome • e 1remen The minister's job as pastor of his flock calls for such close application and unselfish devotion to his work that often his own most important personal needs go unheeded. Yet, get your minister alone sometime in his study for a heart– to-heart talk about himself! Ask him to con– sider seriously the things most essential for himself and his family. Unless he is too modest to admit it (as many ministers are), his thoughtful answer to your query will no doubt be: "An income after r etirement." No one - not even one of these self-effacing servants of the Lord - cares to face a future of poverty and want. ' • Special announcement to all churches of the General Association of Reg·ular Baptist Churches: The Baptist Life Association is happy to announce to all churches of the General Association of Regular Baptist Churches a retirement program for Ministers, Missonaries and full time Christian Workers. Every church should take an interest in its pastor's retirement program and take a part in supporting it. This program provides protection for your pastor's family. If death should occur before age 65, the program is completed and pro– vides a life income for his widow. When your pastor reaches retirement age at 60 or 65, he can start drawing a monthly income for life. If death should occur after age 65, it would provide a life income for the widow. Have your pastor or your church officers fill in the coupon and we shall be happy to send you the full details. - - - - I am interested in a retirement income plan.
