SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT Dr. Neff, members and friends of the third annual assembly of the Western

Ohio Conference of The Pilgrim Holiness Church, GREETINGS: When unexpectedly asked by the 1956 Conference to fill this position, the re-

sponsibilities and requirements of the office loomed mountainous before us. With God's anointing so graciously manifest upon the Conference, however, we felt it pleasing to God to accept. We have earnestly sought Divine guidance and God has been graciously near, while His people have been most kind and cooperative as we have endeavored to go forward together. To God be all the praise and glory for any progress apparent in this report. His name alone is worthy.

Gratifying indeed has been the experience of touring the District, seeing the well planted footsteps of stalwart men of God who have planted, watered, and reaped before us. Their tireless labors have not been in vain, but vines of God's planting are blessing their respective communities with cool clear refreshing water of life, and hungry multitudes are fed on spiritual manna that maketh fat the soul.

Pastoring these spiritual lighthouses are holy men ordained and anointed of God, who together with Godly laymen are carrying the torch of holiness to ever increasing boundaries.

Reports indicate a good year from the standpoint of statistics. We could call your atention to the reports of the Sunday School Promotion Secretary, Statistician, and Treasurer. Although not as great as we would have liked, these all show gains. The best report o.f all, however, is that of the glowing revivals that have characterized the spring campaigns. Special seasons of all-night prayer and early morning prayer meetings have been rewarded, and many souls have found God. Praise His name!

Services have been held at Eaton since early in the calendar year. Rev, and Mrs. M. H. Robbins are in charge of the work, but we have not been able to affect an organization as yet.

NEW CHURCH BUILDINGS ALGER has the main sanctuary of their new church near completion and they

expect to move from the basement to the main auditorium in the near future. This fine growing group of Pilgrims is under the leadership of Rev. H. D. Wright, pastor.

BERRYVILLE, with litle cash but dauntless courage and purposeS have a very nice block church under roof and hope to have it completed within a few months. Rev. James DeMint, pastor, expects to move to the community and give this church his best in time and ministry.

ELMWOOD is now in the process of constructing a very fine superstructure on the basement in which they have worshipped for several years. At last report the walls were nearing completion. Steel trusses will support the roof. Rev. Stanley Dean is supervising the work and God is richly blessing his leadership as pastor.

LIBERTY CENTER with Rev. Wayne Goldsmith, pastor, has just completed one of the finest church buildings in our District. It is ultra-modern in design and has ex-cellent facilities. The pastor and people are to be heartily commended for their splendid work.

LIMA FIRST recently dedicated a new addition. The old structure has been so completely remodeled and enlarged that it has every appearance of an entirely new, well planned church. God has graciously blessed the leadership of Rev. I. B Zeits as pastor.

MADISONVILLE held the opening service in the newly constructed basement church on Rally Day last September. This new structure joins and is planned in connection with the old southern colonial home in which they previously worshipped. Rev. Eldon T. Rotz, pastor, is leading in a real Forward Movement in Madisonville.

SPRINGFIELD-MEADOW GROVE is now in the construction period of the first unit of their new church on Home Road. The basement walls are perhaps being laid today. The old house used for parsonage and temporary place of worship is now br sale. Under the enthusiastic leadership of Rev. Darrell Rotz, pastor, this congregation anticipates a bright future in a fast-growing community.

PARSONAGES After many years of anticipation, saving and planning, the Dayton First Church

purchased a very comfortable parsonage on Alton Avenue only a few blocks from the church. Rev. M. L. Bogard, pastor, reports that considerable repair and painting is to be done, followed by dedication this fall.

Rev. Ogle Yates, pastor of the Kenton church, moved into the newly constructed parsonage in the middle of this year. Bro. Yates has worked untiringly at this project and now has a very comfortable home.

The Maud Pilgrims have a lovely new brick veneer parsonage ready to put under roof. This home, located only a short distance from the church, will be of modern design, constructed with full basement including garage. Rev. Clyde Waites, the young energetic pastor, together with other competent craftsmen in the church are building this on a donated labor basis at a maximum planned indebtedness of only $6,300.00. Early this year they also constructed a very fine parking lot and installed a new oil conversion heating unit in the church.

Miamisburg found themselves without a parsonage as the old one was rented before the church could secure it for the new pastor, but God undertook and opened the door to buy a very nice parsonage on Cottage Avenue. Rev. Enlow, pastor, led the way as the faithful people came and together completely redecorated the interior before he moved last fall.

Piqua has a new parsonage nearly completed on the outside, and hope to have their pastor moved in within a few months. Rev. Garvin Sheridan deserves much credit for labor as well as vision for this attractive parsonage.

Sidney purchased additional lots, adjacent to the church, on which is a house that can be used as parsonage in the future when they may have need. Rev. Otto Bennett, pastor, is greatly beloved by his people, and his faithful ministry and untiring labors are deeply appreciated by a growing congregation.

Union City purchased an excellent parsonage with ideal adjacent corner lot on which they expect to build a new church. This move also enables them to use the old parsonage facilities for much needed Sunday School rooms. God is blessing under the spiritual leadership of Rev. Donald Wilson, who is leaving secular employment to devote full time to the ministry. We feel this is a real forward step for both pastor and people.

IMPROVEMENTS Bowersville has a new coat of paint both inside and out. Bro. Hart did much

of the work on this project. Dayton Greenwich Village dedicated new vestibule and rest rooms last fall, and

since have sodded the yard and planted shrubbery. This has added much to the utility and beauty o the church.

Dayton Westwood has had their church repainted along with numerous minor repairs and improvements.

Defiance has a beautiful new paint job on all of the buildings. Delphos has installed a large new furnace, decorated the church inside, constructed

three new Sunday School rooms in the basement and put in a new parking lot. The total cost was a little more than one thousand dollars.

Good hope has redecorated and had a beautiful picture painted on the front wall. Greenville gave their parsonage a complete face-lifting inside and out, with a

paint job on the outside and complete redecoration on the inside. Hamilton gave a very attractive paint job to their entire building last fall and

installed a new gas conversion heating unit. Attractive celotex paneling on the walls and new ceiling has been installed at

Hicksville. Work also continues on the completion of the building. Rev. James Payton deserves much credit for this good church.

Liberty has constructed a new furnace room in the basement and installed a complete new oil burning furnace.

Lima Market Street church has purchased a Grand piano. Mulberry has purchased a new Baldwin organ and a nearly new grand piano.

14

North Bend-Addyston church found themselves without a place to worship in North Bend early last fall. God saw the future however and opened the door for them to return to Addyston, where the faithful pastor and people cleaned, painted and equipped a very attractive temporary place of worship. Attendance has been steadily growing since Rev. V. C. Sharp has given full time as pastor of the church.

Pleasant Valley recently dedicated lovely oak pews. They have planted shrubbery and sodded the yard which adds much to the attractiveness of this good church.

Springfield First has had re-pointing and lining done on their church along with other general repair.

St. Mary's has installed new siding and other added improvements on the church. Troy has finished and decorated a new Sunday School room in the basement and

erected a beautiful sign on the church lawn.

Washington Court House dedicated new pews in the early fall. Under the seasoned leadership of Rev, and Mrs. L. R. Roberts this fine church is showing steady progress in every way.

Westboro is in the process of installing a furnace in the basement and two adjacent lots have been purchased for future expansion and parking.

West Carroilton has installed a new celotex ceiling, fluorescent lighting, and beautifully redecorated. The parsonage basement, used for Junior Sunday School, has also been decorated.

With sincrere gratitude to God for present and past blessings, we now turn our gaze to the future. The Forward Movement is more than a program; it is a burning vision, a consuming challenge, a call for reapers, yea, a soul passioned drive to win the lost ere it is too late. It is in harmony with the spirit of the Master when He said, "I must work the works of Him that sent me while it is day. The night cometh when no man can work." A growing conviction grips my soul, that what we expect to do for God we must do now. There is no time for paralyzing complacency. The urgency of souls being lost is before us and we have the means of rescue. May God grant that this may grip the soui of every layman as well as the ministers, until the Forward Movement will be a practical reality throughout the Western Ohio District. We dare not sacrifice the vital principles that gave our church birth, on the altar of statistics, neither dare we hide behind excuses or notions for not being agressively, positively spiritual. The early church "went everywhere", "turned the world upside down", met opposition on every hand, but "added to the church daily such as should be saved." This is what we mean by positive spirituality and obsessing conviction grips our souls that it is still God's plan for us today.

With globe circling missiles laden with atomic destruction poised ready and waiting for the touch of a button to send them on their screaming supersonic course to annihilate civilization and send souls to hell in such quantity that hell must enlarge herseLf, this is no time to play church. We have not strength to dissipate on petty differences, quibbling or critical judgment. Let us be true to God's Word, both in precept and principle, and in so doing be loyal to the rich heritage of foundation principles that serve as the foundation on which the Pilgrim Holiness Church is built. Let us be loyal to the doctrines, standards and programs of the church, uniting our efforts in holding high the blood stained banner o.f holiness and move forward in the spirit and power of the conquering Christ. To this end let the Western Ohio Conference pledge the complete devotion of its every power.

In conclusion I wish to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for a most cooperative and helpful council on whom I have relied heavily. I wish also to give due credit to my faithful companion who worked faithfully by my side in every phase of the work and who joins me now with Gloria and Johnny, in expressing thanks to every pastor and wife who have made our visits to your homes as well as to the churches, most pleasant. Most of all we give thanl o our Heavenly Father for His watchful care and protection on the highways and for His help which we have recognized all along the way.

The Conference then united in prayer after which hearts were blessed in singing a verse of "Sweet Hour of Prayer."

Rev. Monroe then brought greetings and mentioned that our General Superin-tendent, Rev. Wm. Neff, will be with us as Chairman of the Conference after lunch.

Rev. Meiroy Ward then addressed the Conference with an inspiring and challenging message based upon the necessity of prayer and the need for "Prayer Warriors." He gave as the three conditions of prevailing prayer—a pure life, a pure heart, and a pure faith. Following Rev. Ward's exhortation the conference gathered around the altar for a sincere volume of prayer.

The Roll Call of ministers and deaconnesses was read and corrected. It was noted that the space to be included in the Conference Bar and the time of

The Sunday School Promotional Secretary, before reading his report, digresed to tell of the Canadian Camp Meeting from which he had just come. Rev. Eldon Rotz told of the wonderful manifestation of the Spirit of God in this camp meeting, of the great number, including many young people, who sought and found God in the last service, and of the prevailing feeling among all present that God was truly there. He then read his report, presented awards and gave commendations to the pastors of those churches showing outstanding gains in their Sunday Schools during the past conference year. Rev. Robbins and Rev. Monroe gave a few words of commendation to Rev. Rotz for his splendid work in the Sunday School Institutes and the extra time and travel in the interests of the Forward Movement. Moved and seconded that his report be accepted with a hearty "Amen" by the conference. Motion carried.

the doctorate degree recently bestowed upon him by Asbury College, Wilmc,re, Kentucky. Dr. Neff brought greetings and a very challenging message on the "Fellowship of the Saints," based upon the 13th chapter of I Corinthians. He men-tioned that the Acts tells of the apostles having a conference, of their disputing, of having an agenda of business, but that they still kept the fellowship.

The District Superintendent, Rev. Harold Monroe, gave his report which was accepted by a standing vote of the Conference expressing appreciation for his service. He then read his personal report which was also accepted by the Conference.

Conference in singing "Come Thou Almighty King," accompanied by Sr. R. T. Powell at the piano.

He stated that the whole matter of religion is too complex to give a quick answer. There are many terms with as many shades of meaning, but they can all be grouped together in one great term—Love--as defined in I Cor. 13.

Rev. Otho Jennings, President, Owosso Bible College, was invited to the platform and led the conference in a good season of prayer. -

Rev. Neff exhorted the pastors concerning holiness conventions and Bible con-ventions within their own local groups to encourage the saints and aid them in studying the doctrines of the church and enjoying the fellowship of studying the Word together.

Ballots were cast and tellers were asked to count while the Conference proceeded.

Dr. Neff announced to the Conference the action of the General Board to make Owosso Bible College a Liberal Arts College where our young people can receive training in the arts and sciences in a holiness atmosphere. He then presented to the Conference Rev. Otho Jennings, President of Owosso Bible College to speak further upon the subject.

Rev. Jennings announced that the Liberal Arts College will open this fall. He stated that evangelical Christianity has not been keeping up with the population growth. This presents a challenge; more young people than ever before are entering college for training in the professions and it is necessary that we become increasingly aware of the need for educating Pilgrim Youth for these professions in a Pilgrim atmosphere.

FORWARD MOVEMENT COMMITTEE REPORT With fields white unto harvest, we realize something of the urgency o± the

Forward Movement of The Pilgrim Holiness Church. We feel this program is being used by our district with God's anointing to promote the work of the kingdom of God. With praise to God for every victory, humbled by every defeat and failure of our own weakness, we like Paul, count not ourselves to have apprehended. but this one thing we do—we press toward the mark . . . . (Phil. 3:13, 14).

Almost immediately after conference, the District Forward Movement Committee met and planned zone Forward Movement rallies. In these rallies, we endeavored to carry the spirit of the FORWARD MOVEMENT to the local pastors and laymen. Zones were organized in these meetings, goals and prospects were discussed, and some plans laid.

Following the meeting with the general committee, two meetings were held, one as a committee alone and the other with the zone chairmen. Here plans were made as much as possible to promote the work on the zone level.

Reports are beginning to reflect results of these efforts. In Sunday school attend-ance the November report showed a gain of 201 and the October report showed a gain of 461. A new church has been organized at Springfield with 115 in Sunday school attendance on Christmas Sunday. The average attendance here has been around 60.

A new work is being launched in Eaton, Ohio. The first service was held on January 10, and around 25 from the local community have been showing a regular in-terest. Neighboring churches of the zone are giving substantial help with their presence, prayers, and finances.

Zone projects are being worked toward launching branch Sunday Schools and new churches. Lay visitation has been encouraged and several churches report that plans now in operation are bringing gratifying results. Several Bible classes have been started and we are encouraging this throughout the district. Several building projects are now in progress, and some new parsonages have already been purchased this conference year. A day of fasting and prayer has been called for each Friday,

31

especially for the purpose of promoting the progress on the spiritual level in our district.

To us the FORWARD MOVEMENT is synonymous with a genuine Spiritual Awakening, often referred to in our church as n "old-fashioned revival." To accom-plish such an awakening with all of its inevitable forward movement, we dedicate:

"As much as in us is ......

IN MEMORIAM

Mrs. Lydia Organ Swick was born at North Lewisburg, Ohio, May 14, 1887. She departed this life at her late home on Sugar Grove Hill Camp Ground July 16, 1956 at the age of 89 years, 2 months and 2 days.

In her early married life, she, with her husband, gave her heart to the Lord and was faithful to the end. Her life consisted in carrying a burden and helping others to find the Lord.

In July of 1905 she with her family moved to Sugar Grove Hill and seeing so many children without a Sunday School, she became instrumental in starting a Sunday School and Midweek Prayer Meeting. She sold her home in North Lewis-burg and placed most of the proceeds toward the purchase of a section of the present Camp Ground.

In 1907 she helped to get a tent meeting started which lasted six weeks, and many souls were saved.

Some years later a tabernacle was built and a camp meeting has been held on this same grounds annually.

Truly, she was a mother in Israel and was always helping young people to get established.

Sister Swick could recognize talent and ability and was always ready to take a back seat and push others forward.

We miss her but rejoice that she made it Home.

YOUTH CONFERENCE EXECUTIVE SECRETARY'S REPORT

TO OUR DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT AND DELEGATES OF THE 1957 YOUTH CONFERENCE:

The twelve pages torn from the District Calendar since we last met records no earth-shaking events. Our district "seismograph" has recorded no earthquakes; our ministering meteorologist tells of no great wind; our circuit-riding rangers report only scattered and fragmentary fires. Nevertheless, there are healthy signs that the "still small voice" of the Spirit of the Forward Movement is gaining a greater audience. For this we young people must give thanks and press on.

I wish to give thanks, first, for the stabilizing leadership of our District Superin-tendent, Brother Monroe. With no attempt to exalt him above his predecessors, I recognize, as you do, that God has laid His hand upon this young man. It might be more romantic and exciting to have a "foxy" leader who would set the fields on fire, but it is much more eternally practical to have one stand in the way to direct and encourage the men of the harvest. This Brother Monroe is doing, the harvesting we must do.

I wish to give thanks, again, that our district is getting a clearer vision of the place of youth in our church. It has been my growing conviction that our youth are not only the greatest FIELD for evangelism, they are also our greatest FORCE for evangelism. It has been my thrilling observation through nine years as a district youth leader, that in our camp meetings our young people are lining both sides of the altar—the seeking side, and the soliciting side. The tears of compassion shed by our youth are, to me, more powerful than the mighty Niagara. So long as our Western Ohio Pilgrim Youth continue to weep over the lost, the future of our district is not too forboding.

Moreover, I wish to give thanks for a major step in the Forward Movement we, as a district, have taken this year—our first Youth Camp. I have heard no expression of doubt, by anyone who had any connection with this endeavor that this is the greatest, most promising step we have taken in a long time. The eagerness to learn in the classrooms, the overwhelming response to the Gospel call in the evangelistic services, and many other grati.fying features have made this first attempt a spring-board to greater achievements for the Pilgrim Youth work of Ohio.

Personally, for me during the year there have been clouds as well as sunshine. With no better explanation available I must report that My Father has laid the rod heavily upon me. After months of initiativerobbing illness, I have, for the second time in a fifteen-month period, submitted to major surgery. Your prayers, and the prayers of many others, have invoked God to grant me speedy lecovery. I sincerely hope that whatever lessons I had to learn I have learned them well. If I have acquired no other knowledge, I have gained first hand assurance that God keeps His promise, "When thou passeth through the waters, I will be with thee."

I have spoken in six of our seven zones, having missed one appointment while in the hospital. I have been graciously received and royally treated wherever I have gone. I shall be ever grateful for our zone chairmen and their labors of love. It is always refreshing to work with young people. I recommend it as the veritable "fountain of youth."

If in the course of this Youth Conference you should see fit to replace an old man of 38 with a younger man, I promise you I will maintain a stand-by status to help in any way I can. You have honored me for nine consecutive years with this position. I doubt if any man should monopolize such an honor. However, my conse-cration remains unchanged. By the Grace of God I believe I can honestly say:

"Ready to go, ready to stay, Ready my place to fill; Ready for service, lowly or great, Ready to do His will."

Yours for Youth and the CHRIST way, Earl Wachenschwanz

Out of 59 churches reported, 36 churches show a numerical gain, while 18 churches show a loss. The monthly total attendance for the Western Ohio District for 1955-56 was, 3842. For this Conference year, 1956-1957, the total Sunday School attendance was 4,164. This shows a monthly numerical gain of 322 pupils and a percentage gain of 8%.

In the four Sunday School Institutes that I attended and through the contacts I have made on other occasions, I am deeply impressed with the manifest eagerness for

3S

new methods and aproaches for a more spiritual aggressive Sunday School. The substantial increases in attendance this past year is proof of this. This increase for the past several months has been far above the yearly average. If this trend con-tinues, we cart safely predict an unusual increase for the new year. I wish to thank each one personally for your splendid cooperation, prayer and interest in promoting this great work of the Church.

Yours in Him, Eldon T. Rotz Sunday School Promotional Secretary

Auditing Committee Pilgrim Holiness Church

We have examined the statements of cash receipts and disbursements of the district funds of the PILGRIM HOLINESS CHURCH—WESTERN DISTRICT for the period from July 10, 1956 through July 8, 1957, and of the summer camp operation during the summer of 1956. Our examination consisted o.f a review of cancelled checks representing cash disbursements, and a test of the mathematical accuracy of the records. The cash balance at July 8, 1957 was verified by reconciling book balances with a certification received from the bank. It was impractical to verify the recorded cash receipts by direct communication with the member churches.

Beause of the limitation o.f the scope of our examination as described in the preceding paragraph, we are unable to express a formal opinion concerning these statements. However, as far as our examination extended, the recorded transactions during the period, as summarized in the statements of cash receipts and disburse-ments, appear to be in order.
