MINISTERIAL STUDY COURSE AGENCY
Whereas, there is an increasing need of maintaining ministerial study courses such as are provided for by the Manual and inasmuch as it mems advisable to conduct our study course in a more effective manner than is now operating, therefore be it Resolved, that the General Conference authorize the General Board to establish and maintain a central offfce at the denominational headquarters to conduct courses for the benefit of the ministry of the Pilgrim Holiness Church viz.:
1. Such Agency shall be known as the IVIinisterial Study Course Agency.
2. It shall exist for the purpose of assisting unordained ministers and deaconesses in completing the study courses required by the church.
3. This Agency shall provide a list of study course books as authorized from time to time by the General Board.
4. The Agency shall maintain contact by mail with each enrollee throughout each course of study and shall provide study outlines, examination questions and other appro-priate information.
5. The Agency shall maintain adequate educational records as authorized from bene-fit of the enrollee and the church.
6. It shall be understood that this agency shall in no manner supplant the work of the examining and educational boards of the several districts, but shall cooperate with them by reporting annually on the progress of student ministers and deaconesses within their jurisdiction.
7. The Agency shall provide suitable transcripts and issue certificates uponthesatis-factory completion of the work assigned.
8. The Agency shall make reports to the General Board as may be required by that body.
9. The Agency shall be authorized to take all necessary steps for the conducting of its work as indicated by this resolution and may be approved from time to time by the General Board.
Be it further Resolved, that all licensed ministers and licensed deaconesses of the Pilgrim Holiness Church who are taking study course work shall be required to enroll with the ministerial Study Course Agency.
For information write to the Chairman of Educational and Examining Board of Eastern Ohio District.

EASTERN OHIO DISTRICT
JOURNAL OF PROCEEDINGS
FIRST SITTING, MONDAY, AUGUST 6, 1962 - 9:00 A.M. The Eighth Annual Conference of the Eastern Ohio District of the Pilgrim Holiness
Church convened August 6, 1962 at 9:00 A.M. at Bethel Camp Grounds, Coshocton, Ohio. After brief remarks by the District Superintendent, Rev. 0. M. Awe, the congregation was led by Rev. Roy Ankrim in singing "Saviour, Like a Shepherd, Lead Us."
Rev. 0. M. Awe led us in our devotions with the reading of Psalm 8.
We were led in a good season of prayer by Rev. E. E. Leadingham, the Assistant District Superintendent.
The District Superintendent then introduced the Chairman for this conference, Dr. P. W. Thomas, General Superintendent of the Eastern Area of the Pilgrim Holiness Church. Dr. Thomas presided in the absence of Dr. William H. Neff, General Superintendent of the Central Area, who was unable to be with us due to a conflict of dates with other conferences in his area.
Rev. Thomas gave the conference a few words of greeting and challenge. He quoted the Old Testament verse, "Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit, saith the Lord." He encouraged us to welcome the Holy Spirit into our midst throughout the conference. A precious spirit of blessing prevailed.
He then called the Eighth Annual Conference to order.
The District Secretary, Rev. C. E. Jones, called the roll of ministerial and lay de-legates.

DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT To the General Superintendent, Dr. P. W. Thomas; District Council; Pastors;
Delegates and friends of the Eighth Annual Conference of the Eastern District of Ohio of the Pilgrim Holiness Church at Coshocton, Ohio: We wish to extend greetings in the name of our Lord.
APPRECIATION
Words have their place, but we do not have them at our command to properly ex-press our thanks to the faithful laborers in every effort of the church. The District
- 17 -
Council, the District Church Extension Committee, the Youth Council, zone leaders, each pastor and layman, have been most wonderful to work with. The work load that you have undertaken and your fine spirit of co-operation manifested has been much appreciated.
SPIRITUAL EMPHASIS
It is wonderful to hear from our churches any note of victory that they may have had. The amount of Sunday School attendance has shown a substantial increase but growth of membership both in the youth department and regular church has not given us any gains that would merit any amount of praise. Unless our statistician has gotten further report, a loss is shown in the Youth Department. There must ever be souls saved and fully sanctified to bring about the growth of the church that I feel is the interest and concern of every Pilgrim. Not one dare rest on the oars, we need the effort of every church. If one gains and another loses, what have we profited. You have heard the adage, "The strong become stronger, and weak become weaker. " May it ever be, God helping us, that this not be true in the great battle for souls. Help us make our cry, "The weak be-come strong, and the strong become stronger.' As new souls be born may there also be new churches born in the district to strengthen our forces against sin, to carry out the great commission, and to conserve the holiness work. We must see sinners converted, believers sanctified, and men and women ready for His coming.
YOUTH CAMP
Our youth leaders and the personnel are greatly appreciated in their labors to make youth camp a success. We commend them in their zealous effort to make it so. Plans are in the making to have two youth camps instead of one because of the fine growth.
NEW CHURCH
It is our privilege to present one new church at Waverly, Ohio. Rev. Mrs. Irene Creech is the pastor. July 1, 1962, this church was organized with eleven members. This growing concern in this community has become a reality. Thanks for the labors of the District Church Extension Committee in making this possible.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Three of our churches have been dedicated this passed Conference Year. On September 10, 1961, it was our privilege to dedicate the new church at Newark.
This was begun under the ministry of Rev. Ralph King and completed by the present pastor, Rev. Virgil McVey. We are grateful for the sacrificing labors of both pastor and people to make this fine place of worship a possibility.
November 19, 1961, was the date of dedication for the new church at Jackson. A new sanctuary was constructed under the leadership of Rev. C. E. Jones, to the present Sunday School annex making a complete building of 90' by 40'. Numbers of folk have spoken of the church as being the most beautiful in this area. We thank God with them for this appreciated place of worship.
April 15, 1962, it was our privilege of dedicating the completed structure at Sandusky. The basement was built during the ministry of Rev. Stanley Dean. After seven years the super-structure became a reality. This beautiful building has become possible by the sacrificing labors of the present pastor, Rev. Eugene Jordan, and people. It is a wonderful asset to the community. May God bless the labors there.
May 20, 1962, it was our privilege to dedicate a new parsonage for the Lancaster 1st Church pastor, Rev, and Mrs. J. H. Sherwood. This cottage-like home built in West Lancaster is a fine asset to the work there. We are glad with them that this newly built parsonage could be attained. The Lord bless the efforts of both pastor and people.
The Lancaster 2nd Church Pilgrims having been desiring to expand for sometime. It was our privilege to conduct a ground breaking service, May 6, 1962, to make way for an additional structure beside the present building. The new building is now in progress, under the leadership of Rev. Clyde Goss, and will be ready for use early this fall, We shall look forward to the dedication of this much needed new sanctuary.
The Baltimore Pilgrims are ready to take another step forward with their past in-debtedness erased, under the leadership of Rev. Charles Dozer. May 13, 1962, a mort-gage-burning service was conducted. A parking lot has been provided for and new doors on the front of the church.

Danville has purchased new stained glass windows which is a fine asset to this place of worship in that small community. A lighted bulletin board has fulfilled a need for them also.
Elyria is in the process of laying plans for a new sanctuary to be added to their present structure. Financial negotiations are being made to make this possible. The architect's drawing of it reveals a beautiful church to be anticipated.
Galion has constructed a new stone bulletin board and sidewalk in front of their church. This is an asset to the work there.
Jacobsburg has taken on a new look. The interior has a new ceiling, new lights, and fresh paint. It has greatly improved this semi-basement church.

Oak Hill, has greatly improved the parsonage by adding a family room, kitchen cabinets, tile floor, new carpeting, furnace, hot water tank, concrete porch, drive and patio.
Nelsonville has completed an addition to the parsonage by way of a fine pastor's study and a new front porch. Other remodeling is being done that will make it an ideal parsonage.
Oak Grove has done considerable work on their church, which has been a fine im-provement on the interior. A new furnace to replace the present stove is next on their agenda.
Perrysburg has purchased a Minshali Estey Electric Organ for their church. It is enjoyed very much.
Portsmouth 1st are nearing completion of making way for extra classrooms under their present building. This space has been available as long as the building has been built and now will be used to accommodate their growing Sunday School.
Shreve has purchased a new furnace to accommodate their church-parsonage. Re-decorating work also has been done.
Toledo East is in the process of purchasing a parsonage for the work there. This is the first parsonage this work will have owned.
Tiffin has built a fine new building on the edge of the city in a growing suburban area. The pastor, Rev. Charles Petit, has taken much responsibility to make this possible. Plans will be forthcoming as to the dedication of the growing work there.
Wheelersburg has purchased new church furniture and piano. These improvements are all paid for. They also are purchasing the house next to the church.
No doubt other churches have some accomplishments to report which we do not have note of. It is in order to keep our property in repair and make every proper accomplish-
- 19 -
ment possible. May the Lord reward every effort to build churches and men. God bless our faithful pastors and every layman of the church.
OUTREACH
As we are in the new Conference year and camp meeting is over, our conference in session, it makes us realize that time is marching on. Dear fellow workers, may our vision be none the less for this year at hand. Each Sunday School show a sub-stantial increase. Scholars being saved and added to the church. Could we set a goal of 15% gain for the year. That would only mean the equivalent of 4 or 5 members per church-increase. It would be the same as having another church with approximately 285 members. Let's not allow ourselves to become only a Sunday School church. As the Sunday School gains, so must the church. We must grow dear friends, men and women, boys and girls, must love the church if they are to love God.
Pray with us and put your effort behind every part of the church: the youth depart-ment, children's church, Christian Youth Crusaders, and keep our colleges before our young people. Stand by whole heartedly every budget of the church. Keep a vision before you of what must be accomplished. The Lord is counting on us.

ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT To Rev. P. W. Thomas, General Superintendent, Rev. 0. M. Awe, District Sup-
erintendent, and delegates of the Eighth District Conference of the Eastern District of Ohio, now in session at Coshocton, Ohio:
Greetings in the precious Name of Jesus! Through the mercy of God we have been permitted to assemble again in the capacity
of a District Conference. How grateful we should be to our Heavenly Father for His mind-fulness and tender care. It has been a real privilege to labor for the Lord and the church in the Eastern Ohio District another year.
As we meet here in this conference, certainly we are not unaware of these trouble-some days in which we live, especially on the international scene, neither are we blind to the wicked devices of the enemy of the church of Jesus Christ. However, despite world conditions and the unrest which is so evident, "With Jesus we shall win."
First, I should like to say that in my thirty years as an ordained minister I cannot recall having ever been more conscious of the presence of the Lord in my own heart than during this past year. Also I do not recall ever witnessing more direct answers to prayer. What comfort and strength the Lord has given! We can say with David, "God is our .. . strength."
- 20 -
Next to our love for the Lord Jesus Christ is our love for our beloved Zion, the Pilgrim Holiness Church. The fellowship of this body of believers is near and dear to my heart.
Concerning my activities, I have served as chairman of the Educational and Examin-ing Board; Chairman of the Board of District Trustees; have served on the District Church Extension Committee; and on the Building Committee for Motel #2, 1 have attended all the District Council meetings, spent one day with the District Superintendent in the interest of a new church and participated in the organization service of the new church at Waverly. I held one special church board meeting and conducted a workshop at the National Sunday School Convention at Eastern Pilgrim College. Attended the Gen-eral Conference at Winona Lake, Indiana. Traveled approximately 3, 000 miles. I have endeavored to the best of my ability to assist our District Superintendent and help with the work of the District in every way possible.
Respectfully submitted,

Bertha Haas was born in 1892. She went to be with her Lord on February 25, 1962. She joined the Pilgrim Holiness Church in Chillicothe, Ohio, in the early 1930's and
was ordained as a minister of the Pilgrim Holiness Church in the early 1940's. She worked hard and faithfully for her Lord as long as her health permitted, preach-
ing in churches, on street corners, and in homes. She was a woman of prayer and faith. She was a loyal friend and an inspiration to all who knew her.
I am waiting by the river And my heart has waited long;
And I think I hear the chorus Of the angel's welcome song;
Oh, I see the dawn is breaking On the hill-tops of the blest,
Where the clouds give way to sunshine, And the weary are at rest.
Far beyond the shadows Of this weary vale of tears,
There the tide of bliss is sweeping Thro' the bright and changeless years;
Oh, I long to be with Jesus, In the mansions of the blest,
Where the harpers chant sweet music, And the weary are at rest.
They are launching on the river, From the calm and quiet shore,
And they soon will bear my spirit Where the weary sigh no more;
For the tide is swiftly flowing And I long to greet the blest,
Where the flowers are always blooming In the land of endless rest.
James B. Siders, son of the late James and Eva Siders, was born August 14, 1891, in Marion, Ohio.
He victoriously passed from this life July 13, 1962, at the age of seventy years, ten months, and twenty-nine days.
In 1912 he was united in marriage to Bessie Alexander. This was their fiftieth year of wedded life. Born to this union were six sons and one daughter.
He leaves to mourn his absence, his wife, Bessie; six sons, Dale, Paul and William, of Jackson; Lewis, of Columbus, Ohio; Robert in the U.S. Air Force, now stationed at Tacoma, Washington; James, of Forest, Ohio; and one daughter, Mrs. William Barn-hart, of Oak Hill, Ohio; sixteen grandchildren; three-great-grandchildren; and a great host of friends whose lives were touched by his ministry and enriched by his friendship.
He was converted and came to know the Lord Jesus Christ as his personal Saviour in 1911. He was sanctified a year later. Feeling the call of God, he dedicated the re-maining 47 years of his life to the ministry of the gospel. The last 28 years of his min-istry was in Jackson County with the exception of two years in Lancaster, Ohio. He pastored the Pilgrim Holiness Church in Jackson for 10 years and then the church in Oak Hill for 14 years. The new church in Oak Hill was built under his leadership. There are
- 21 -
many hundreds of people throughout Jackson County and elsewhere whose lives have been influenced for God as Reverend Siders ministered to them in times of sickness and need and faithfully dealt with them concerning the salvation of their soul.
Reverend Siders has an outstanding record as a minister in the Pilgrim Holiness Church. He served for many years as a member of the District Council.
He will be greatly missed by his loved ones,his church, and all who had the privilege of knowing this man of God.

SUNDAY SCHOOL PROMOTIONAL SECRETARY'S REPORT
To the General Superintendent, Dr. P. W. Thomas, my District Superintendent, Rev. 0. M. Awe, members of the Conference and friends:
Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The leaves of the church calendar year has been torn off one by one, indicating that
"time marches on." What we have or have not done can not be altered in any way; it stands approved or disapproved by our Heavenly Father and our Church.
Since this job of the Promotional Secretary is such an important non-elective, and high paying position in the district, you would think more people would clamour for the job. (All joking aside we have really liked it.) The district elders, upon ajournment of the conference of last year, appointed yours truly to try and fill the office that the most esteemed Rev. E. E. Leadingham, long time veteran in administration and Sunday school work. Rev. Leadingham put many years of hard work in this very important office in the district.
Now, as you well observed last year that we were unable to put the Sunday School reports in the PILGRIM REVIEW due to the fact the paper was printed only once every quarter, therefore, it was necessary for us to mimeograph them, thus causing a great amount of extra work as well as mailing the reports as the earliest possible date.
Much credit for labor and time goes to my efficient wife and two others in my local church. God Bless them.
As to the over all picture of the Sunday Schools of the District, many of our smaller Sunday schools of a year or so ago, are now leading schools in the district. I look at Mansfield, that has made such great strides and has a grade of 95 on the Standard of Excellence, plus being eighth in the district in attendance. This was a little school in a house, some years ago, in which I preached as a boy preacher. This is only one example of many others that I could proudly mention if time and space would permit.
Would it not be most heart warming to the new secretary to have all the reports sent to him on time every month and also the corrected addresses?
PERSONAL REPORT
My personal report is very brief and less comprehensive. It could have been more if time and money would have permitted. I attended the National Sunday School Convention at Eastern Pilgrim College, Allentown, Pa., and also the Leaders Conference. I did a small amount of district promotion work along with the monthly reports.
Finally, I wish to thank all the pastors, superintendents, and the secretaries of the churches for their fine cooperation this past year.
Humble submitted, M. D. Stiverson, Promotional Secretary

THE DECADE OF PROGRESS AND STANDARD OF EXCELLENCE REPORTS
This report covers only the 1961-62 Church year. There were a total of ten churches reporting, with Mansfield Church leading the way with twice as many points as the church in second place. Mansfield had a total number of 28, 740 points; Jackson, in second place, had 14,120 points; and in third place was Oak Hill with 13, 171 points.
The beautiful Decade of Progress Trophy is therefore awarded to the Mansfield Church and its good pastor, Reverend Duane Saylor. This ship had its resting place last year in the newly built church at Jackson, Ohio. Now it shall rest in another beautiful newly built church at Mansfield.
I am sorry to say, as the reports reveal, far too many of our churches did not re-port, neither in the Decade of Progress or the Standard of Excellence.
The Standard of Excellence's report is below. The highest score was again Mansfield leading with a score of 95 or a good "A". The average score for the ten churches were: 66 3/5. Let us make a better effort to report next year.
The District lost a Sunday school but gained a new one at Waverly, Ohio. They have sent in at least two months reports with nearly an average of 30 in attendance. We ap-preciate this new work and do assure them our prayers and support.

DISTRICT CHURCH EXTENSION COMMITTEE REPORT For the first time as a Church Extension Committee, we report. We were born of desperation as the District Conference of 1961 passed a resolution
that the district home missionary program become the responsibility of the District Council.
The District Council, "wrapped us in swaddling clothes", on August 8, 1961, when they appointed a committee to formulate a written policy which would guide our future efforts.
On December 11, 1961 we were, "nurtured" with a free expression of ideas, out of which our policy was created.
The District Council encouraged us to take the first step on January 8, 1962, when our policy was approved and the following members elected to serve as the District Church Extension Committee: Rev. W. V. Gilkerson, Rev. C. E. Jones, and Rev. E. E. Leadingham.
We began to walk on May 29, 1962, when after investigation, we recommended to the District Superintendent that the Pilgrims at Waverly, Ohio be organized as a Pilgrim Holiness Church. We grew strong as we extended a grant to $700. 00 to this church to aid in the down payment for their building; with the agreement that the local church would raise $300. 00.
A demonstration of our working ability came on July 1, 1962, when we assisted the District Superintendent in organizing this church with 11 charter members. This is a self-supporting church.
Our plan and purpose is spiritual growth as we carry out the Great Commission of Christ.
For future expansion of our smaller churches a questionnaire is now ready. A District with plans, purpose, and a passion cannot be stopped in its
forward progress. Respectfully submitted W. V. Gilkerson, Chairman

DISTRICT HOME MISSIONARY POLICY
EASTERN OHIO DISTRICT OF THE PILGRIM HOLINESS CHURCH
Section 1 — Object
The object of the Pilgrim Holiness Church, as stated in our Manual is: First, to glorify God, our Father, to exalt Jesus Christ, our Saviour, and to honor the Holy Spirit.
Second, to carry out the Great Commission of our heaven-ascended Head by publish-ing the full gospel to every nation.
Third, to conserve the holiness work by forming churches and aiding in placing over them Spirit-baptized pastors, who will feed the flock of God and in every way possible help to get souls ready for the coming of our Lord.
In carrying out this objective, our District Home Missionary Program shall strive to strengthen and establish existing home missionary churches and to start, organize and establish new churches as outlined further in this policy.
Section 2 — Basic Goals
Whereas, there are countless needs and opportunities for the investment of our efforts and finances in the general area of district home missions, it is essential to a sound policy that we establish our basic goals and determine the type of projects that shall be given priority in our program.
Our primary goal and emphasis shall be to strengthen and establish existing home missionary churches. The term "home missionary churches" as here used does not refer only to those churches which are as yet unorganized or which has less than seven mem-bers as outlined in the Manual, but shall also include weak organized churches which have a real potential for growth if proper assistance would be given.
(Due to the fact that 50% of the churches on our district have 20 or less members, we feel that the strengthening of these churches should be given priority over new pro-jects except as outlined below.)
Our secondary goal shall be to organize new churches in communities where the need and potential for a strong Pilgrim Holiness Church exists. Our policy shall not be the indiscriminate starting of new churches. However, we realize that if we are to ful-fill the Great Commission we must not loose our vision and interest in reaching new areas with the gospel of full salvation. We shall, therefore, strive to take advantage of outstanding opportunities to start churches were the need and potential for a strong church exists. Such a project could be deemed to be of sufficient importance to take priority over our primary goal.
Section 3 — General Proceedures
It shall be our policy to analyze the total picture of the needs and potential of home missionary churches as well as new opportunities in order to determine the best investment of our time, personnel and finances.
Our emphasis on the district-wide level shall concentrate on one primary project at a time. This project shall be determined as a result of the survey and analysis mem-tioned in the above paragraph.
It shall be our policy to initiate programs on the local and area level that will pro-mote the strengthening of the weaker churches by the stronger churches of their area.
A careful evaluation shall be made of opportunities to start new churches. Whenever possible, approval and assistance shall be given to proposed projects which are con-sistant with this policy.
Section 4 — Administration
The District Superintendent has general oversight of the work throughout his district. He, therefore, shall have the responsibility of the general administration of this district home missionary policy.
In accordance with the Manual provision that "the (district) council shall assist in planning the work of the district superintendent, and shall also lend its advice to local churches in the various problems which arise from their financial and spiritual necessi-ties." (Section 112, P. 8), there shall be a District Home Missionary or Church Exten-sion Committee consisting of three members which shall be appointed by the district
- 28 -
council. The members of this committee shall not necessarily be members of the district council.
This committee shall be delegated authority from the district council to carry out the district home missionary program as outlined in this policy in co-operation with the district superintendent. They shall advise and assist the district superintendent by sug-gesting programs and making recommendations for action to be taken concerning indiv-idual churches and situations in the process of reaching the objectives of this policy.
It shall be the responsibility of this committee to approve district home missionary projects and to promote the special projects, the September Offering, the annual camp meeting District Home Missionary Service and the district home missionary program in general.
They may make recommendations to the district superintendent concerning financial or other needed assistance, personnel placement, closer supervision or any other remedial actions which they feel should be taken to help and strengthen the weaker churches.
No program or recommendation of this committee shall be put into effect without the knowledge of the district superintendent. Decisions of this committee shall be final subject to the approval of the district superintendent, with the exception that any pro-gram or recommendation of the committee which would involve the expenditure of more than $2, 500, shall be approved by the district council. Recommendations of the com-mittee may be taken to the full district council for consideration.
The Church Extension Committee shall make a report to the annual Conference, and to the district council when requested to do so.
In order that there be a co-ordination of all activities in this phase of the work, the district superintendent will work in co-operation with this committee and in harmony with this policy.
Section 5 — Amendments
This home missionary policy may be amended from time to time by the district council in consultation with the church extension committee.

A. That we extend our General Superintendent, Dr. P. W. Thomas, a vote of thanks for his Christ-like spirit and the efficient manner in which he conducted this Conference;

C. That we express our appreciation to the Coshocton Tribune and Rev. Paul Harris for the splendid cooperation that they have given us in their paper for this conference, and that a letter of appreciation be mailed to them by our Conference Secretary.

DISTRICT YOUTH PRESIDENT'S REPORT
To our District Superintendent, Rev. 0. M. Awe, and members of the Eighth Annual District Youth Conference.
It is with a heart full of gratitude to God, and with a deep feeling of appreciation to the many fine people of our district, that we can say, truly this has been a year to re-member! It has been a year filled with activity for Pilgrims everywhere.
Again this year, I was able to take part in the National Pilgrim Youth Leaders Con-ference, serve as one of your delegates to the General Conference, and attend the Na-tional Pilgrim Sunday School Convention in Allentown, Pennsylvania. I also took the Opportunity to sit in on a part of the National Sunday School Convention in Detroit. These special opportunities have afforded a fresh outlook on the complex challenge of the youth interest, and were a source of inspiration.
I was able to visit each of the nine zones of the district in promotional rallies in ad-dition to speaking in a limited number of churches.
Immediately after the Youth Conference last year, plans were made in a joint meeting with the District Council to present our new district youth motel project to the churches. At our annual Zone Officers Meeting, held this year on the camp ground for the first time, the plans for promotion were presented in detail, and March 2, 3, and 4, 1962, designated as District Youth Week End. Where this plan was put into effect, our people opened their hearts to the need, and a number of Youth Societies contributed heavily to the project. Wherever it was my privilege to present this urgently needed project, it was received with enthusiam, and sufficient funds were raised to get the building under way. At the present time, a financial plan has been worked out by the District Council to complete construction.
In our Zone Rallies this year, a district-wide increase brought the monthly average attendance to slightly less than 1200, and where the zones were subdivided, a surprising increase in attendance resulted. In effect, the old Southern and central areas showed an overwhelming increase of approximately 70%. Rev. Tommy Holshouser, representing Eastern Pilgrim College, made a tour of the district, and was a blessing to our people. Our United Zones Rally on Memorial Day, was a source of inspiration and encouragement to nearly 600 Eastern Ohio Pilgrims again this year. We enjoyed the rich ministry of Rev. J. R. Mitchell, and the large number of young people who took part in the talent hunt program. Our first district rally orchestra was arranged this year by the Capital Zone. The excellent coverage by Rev. Paul Harris in the PILGRIM REVIEW was ap-preciated.
Our 1962 Youth Camp, with Rev, and Mrs. William S. Deal as special workers, was in many ways our best. Even though the age limit was dropped to 16, all available sleep-ing space on the grounds was taken, and well over half of the 259 registered campers found spiritual help at the public altar. Our camp this year was divided into three sepa-ate groups under three departmental directors: Rev. Duane Saylor, Rev. Carles Fletcher, and Rev. Don Wachenschwanz. Several new features were added this year in-cluding a field trip, a musical instruments class, and a camp "newspaper." We are in-debted to these men, and an excellent spirit of co-operation dominated the scene. I join with the District Superintendent, our church leaders, and the people of our district, in a special kind of thanks to those who made up the camp staff, and to those pastors who put forth an extra effort to make this great co-operative program possible. A file of over 600 individual campers is now being prepared to help in future planning, and to set up a much needed follow-up program to keep them tied to the larger fellowship of the district youth organization.
- 39 -
We hasten to say that all of our work at the district level should and must be re-flected in increased activity in the local churches. As we stand on the edge of a new church year, we are humbled by the realization of the many areas of interest that lie untouched by our limited resources. May the God of great plans, and great purpose open our hearts to the almost limitless Pilgrim possibilities—through youth.
Respectfully,
Neil E. Bailey
Youth President
