Houston Pastor
Speaks Here
Dr. Kenneth Pope, pastor of
the First Methodist church in
Houston, was main speaker at
the Bryan district conference
at the A&M Methodist church
Friday.
In his sermon Dr. Pope said
that the church is losing control
over wide areas of American life.
He mentioned that things like com
munity service and education were
now being handled by secular
groups.
He then emphasized, “The
answer to the problem is not re
suming control by the church, but
people in control being under the
influence of Christ.”
At the conference meeting, it
was reported that there were 309
new members in the first six
months of the conference year in
the 26 churches in the area. These
churches have spent $118,000 in
the same period.
Dr. W. R. Swain, district super
intendent, presided over the con
ference. The women of the A&M
church served a luncheon for the
125 delegates at the conference.
