Others are praying for the work here, and we certainly appreciate this. More fellowship is now coming in.”

We do not know a better band of brethren, or a work of its kind more worthy of general and generous fellowship than the effort to complete the house of worship at Glendale, Ky. We have received the following news note from Brother B. B. Brooks —to whom gifts may be sent: “Our final plans have been submitted, and order entered for the tile to build our church house. To date we have on hand $205, and $1,225 subscribed, making a total of $1,430 available. We estimate it will take approximately $3,000 more to complete the house, and we know if we are true to the cause our needs will be supplied. Our meeting is set for the second Lord’s Day in September, and by all means we want the house completed by that time.”
