LYDIA, po OPENED HEART
#ND HOME
Scripture . . . Acts 16:6-40
Memory Selection ... A woman
that feareth the Lord, she shall be
praised.
Proverbs 31:30
Present-Day Application
By Frederick D. Jordan
Los Angeles, Calif.
The service of women, in the
Christian Church comes in for a
good ‘plug’. Today’s lesson is con
cerning Paul’s first European con
vert — a successful business
woman. Lydia opened not only
her heart, but her home. Her life
was completely changed. She gavel
no thought to criticism or to the
effect on her business but put
Christ first. She bade the mission
aries come to her home and there
after her home was an asylum for
the wanderers of the Cross. Lydia
was the first home missionary, the
hostess of the first cottage prayer
meeting. What about your home?
Do you welcome your minister?
Is it possible to hold a prayer
meeting there? Each Class Leader
in our Church was asked to hold
a cottage prayer-meeting in the
homes of a member of the Class
once a month. My, how the ex
cuses poured in!—“My husband
won’t allow it;” — “The neigh
bors wouldn’t like it;” — “My
house isn’t fixed up;” — “You’ll
have to wait until I get some new
curtains;” — “Maybe some other
time.” Do you have an excuse
too?

Church of God In Christ
Leads in Membership Gain
NEW YORK—(ANP)—Thel
Church of God in Christ experi-j
ences the largest increase in
church membership of any church;
in the country, a statistical re-j
search report of the National
Council of the Churches of Christ
in the U.S. revealed this week.
During the period of 1926-50,
the church had an increase of
946.5 per cent in comparison with
other churches with a congrega
tion of 50,000 or over. Its mem
bership jumped from 7,850 in
1926 to 50,000 in 1950.
The report showed that other
churches with Negro members
had the following membership
increases during the period stud
ied:
The National Baptist Conven
tion U.S.A. Inc., and the National
Baptist Convention of America
were second with an increase of
121.8 per cent; the African Meth
odist Episcopal church was third
with an increase of 113.7 per cent;
the Colored Methodist Episcopal
church was fourth with an in
crease of 88 per cent; and the
African Methodist Episcopal Zion
church was fifth with an infcrease
of 16 per cent.
Chief reason for the Church of
God in Christ leading all churches,
the survey pointed out, was that
“holiness sects” now are bringing
into their memberships, “not only
the socially disadvantaged, but
also considerable numbers of the
more fortunately situated persons
in the population.”
Other ‘holiness” groups which
had increases were the Church of
God, 652.6 per cent, and the
Church of Nazarene, 256.7 per
cent.
Membership in the two Na
tional Baptist Conventions (Negro
Baptists in 1926 included both

Peterson is opposed to Universal Military Training
Compare Peterson's Record
Peterson doesn’t talk about economy while sponsoring
special interest spending. He economizes! No other state
takes a smaller percentage of its citizens’ income for state
government. .. «• .
Peterson is not content to let others carry the load of
exposing fraud and corruption. He militantly backed the
drive which put organized gambling out of business in
Nebraska.
Peterson has been a powerful figure in promoting more
irrigation water, a halt to floods, more and cheaper power
and many other benefits for Nebraska and Nebraska agri
culture. He has taken the lead in seeking to protect local
control of our resources.
Nebraska Must Have a
FULL TIME SENATOR
Part time representation is not good enough for Ne
braskans. This state deserves a Senator who is willing and
able to answer ALL roll calls . . . who can command atten
tion and respect . . . who will not be a part time Senator.
