The Ohio Independent Baptist, April 1973

• Called Home To Be With Him! PAUL KING JOHN CATLIN Two fine missionaries, both of the Hiawatha Baptist Missions family , re– cently went to be with their Lord. The first of these was Rev. John Catlin. At the time of hi s death, he was pastoring the Calvary Baptist Church , Bergland, Michigan. He had been an HBM missionary for 16 years. He and his wife served not onl y in Bergland but in Beaver Dam, Wis– consin as well. Both of these churches are now self-supporting. Pastor/ Mis– sionary Catlin was called "Home" on January 23, 1973. He is indeed - "present with the Lord"! On February 14th of this year, Rev. Paul King (a brother of Rev. Guy King, Ex. Director of Hi awatha Baptist Missions) was called "higher". The Lord first spoke to Brother Paul INT THE a bou t rn issionary service hack in I917. He was one who knew the l ... ord Jc us ... not only as Saviour hut as Lord! His first ministry was in the city of Wakefield, Michigan eventua ll y he helped establi h the C' alvary Baptist Ch urch . Later he became burdened for Wadena, Minnesota where yet another church was establ ishc<.J. In both of these places new church buildings were erected and brought into our GARBC fellowship. Of both of these men it could he said th at they had fought a good fight - they had kept the faith - c; urcly there awaits for both of them a "crown of righteousness''! Their places wi ll be hard to fi ll. WHO WILL FOL– LOW IN THEIR TRAIN? Two Ordained At Struthers Rev. Jerry Suhr of the Berean Baptist Church, Youngstown , Ohio writes in– forming us that Rev.
