The Ohio Independent Baptist, September 1961

September, 1961 THE OHIO INDEPENDENT BAPTIST _:;._.~~.:,._~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Page Eleven • - - WHAT .EM11ANUEL BAPTI T, Akron At the annual business meeting it was voted to adopt a building program that v.-·ill eventually cost $50,000, but to begin vvich an educational unit for half that amount. It is hoped that enough can be raised so that with a loan that first unit can be started before winter. CALVARY BAPTI T, Xenia That is the new name for the church which used to be called Xenia Bible Church ( Regular Baptise ) . Pasto r Lauren chenck and his people feel that this name is both shorter and better, and we certainly agree. A Baptist church should not hesitate to put the name Baptise right 10 the main title. FAITH BAPTIST, Ashland, APPLIE At a congregational meeting held Aug. 3 it was decided co make application for fellowship v.-irh the Ohio Assoc1at1on of Regular Baptise Churches. This young ,church chat was approved by a council :as a duly organized Baptist ch urch only :a month befor e, has done something else: :all its ten church families have subscribed for the Oh10 Independent Baptist! We congratulate Pastor Durtsche and his peo– ple. We wish more churches would do the same and gee the magazine at the bargain rare of S 1.50 a year . We ,vould afford to put 1t out for tha t if all our churches did 1t. BIBLE MIS IO BAPTIST, Otsego A blessed time was enJoyed recently when the Quintet from the Baptise The– ological eminary at Grand Rapids, Mich., presented a program of music. Another big thing was the shov.,1ng of the film, Operation Abolition, at the Otsego Grade 5chool July 24th. Approximately 150 a trended The Daily Vacation Bible chool was a real success July 24 through Aug. L! th. The enrolment reached 78. A fine program was presented the closing day.

EMMANUEL BAPTI T, Toledo Af rer several months at the Elmhurst School, the church moved into its new building the first unday of August. They hope to have the dedication Sepe. 17th. , and so next m onth we may be able to tell the story of the fine building that has been erected at 4207 Laskey R oad. The four room house that was on the property when they bought it h as served as church office si nce they were compelled co give up their old building to the egro congregatio n that purchased it . It will now be used fo r a home for the assistant pastor and his wife, Rev. and Mrs. T. Wesley Bliss. Pastor L. George Hunt has been improving to the point where it is h oped he can soon have a n opera tio n , after which 1t is hoped that recovery will be rapid. Dr. R . T. Ketcham will preach there epc. 17th. SUBSCRIPTIONS UP A BIT We gained 8 over our losses and came back to 1515, but we still have 200 to go to catch up with v..hat we had 18 months ago, before the drop began. We are O G LAD FOR RE TART , even if we wish people would believe that final notice and gee their rene\,•als in before the dead line. 1'.,frs. Kautz has to send her orders to the printer the f irsc day of eaLh month without any ifs or ands, and we cannot afford to give subscribers more than one extra copy w1th the hope they will renev.

The ed– itor will be there ept. 1 7 th and discuss the matter of oganiza tio n . Pray with us that they may have the faith to take this step.

Mimeographed copies were made for chose who wished to remember the sermon. MORE AMMU !TIO FOR THAT CIGARETIE ERMO According to Dr. Linus Paulding, obel Prize \"\ inner in science, every cigarette you smoke cuts 14. * minutes from your life span. On an average smoking cut life expectancy b, fou r years.
