38 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

20. J. Norris Palmer, Louisiana, presented Recommendation No.<br />

9 and moved its adoption. G. W. Bullard, North Carolina, moved the<br />

recommendation be amended by deleting the statement, "where a<br />

state has more than one representative, at least one shall be a lay<br />

person." The motion to amend was lost, and the original motion was<br />

adopted as follows:<br />

Recommendation No. 9<br />

We recommend that the first sentence of By-Law 9 (1) of the Convention be<br />

amended to read as follows:<br />

9. The Executive Committee<br />

The Executive Committee shall consist of the president and the senior<br />

secretary of the Convention, the president of the Woman's Missionary Union,<br />

and one member from each co-operating state of the Convention, subject to the<br />

provisions of Section 17 of the By-Laws. When a state convention shall have<br />

250,000 members, it shall be entitled to an additional representative, and one<br />

additional representative for each 250,000, but no state shall have more than<br />

five members. When a state has more than one representative, at least one shall<br />

be a lay person.<br />

We recommend further that the Committee on Boards be asked to give<br />

priority to the members at large, whose terms have not expired, in filling the<br />

newly created positions, and that it be understood that the section of By-Law 9<br />

stating, "where a state has more than one representative, at least one shall be<br />

a lay person," shall apply as present terms expire and vacancies occur. That<br />

the implementing of this recommendation be made by the Committee on Boards<br />

elected by this Convention at Houston.<br />

21. W. D. Hudgins, Mississippi, presented Recommendation No.<br />

10, which was adopted as follows (See Item 168, enlargement of committee<br />

Recommendation No. 10<br />

Following a report of a special committee appointed to study the relationship<br />

of the W.M.U. Training School—recently renamed the Carver School of Missions<br />

and Social Work—to the Sduthern Baptist Convention, which report included a<br />

statement from the trustees of the school as to the relationship of the institution<br />

to the Southern Baptist Convention, the Executive Committee recommends to the<br />

Convention:<br />

1. That a special committee be appointed by the Convention to make a study<br />

of our total program of theological, religious, and missionary education as it<br />

involves financial support from the Southern Baptist Convention.<br />

2. That this special committee be composed of the five members of the finance<br />

committee of the Executive Committee and five members to be appointed by the<br />

president of the Convention.<br />

3. That a report of its findings be made by the committee to the December<br />

meeting of the Executive Committee, and<br />

4. That, pending a report from this committee, we suggest that the trustees<br />

of the Carver School of Missions and Social Work take no action that would<br />

presume upon the support or allocation of funds by the Convention beyond what<br />

already has been authorized.<br />

22. On motion of Louie D. Newton, Georgia, the first portion of<br />

Recommendation No. 11 was adopted as follows:<br />

It is recommended that the words "and will" be inserted after "such as can"<br />

in line 2 of Section X of the Business and Financial Plan of the Convention.<br />

23. On motion of Frank A. Hooper, Georgia, the second portion<br />

of Recommendation No. 11 was adopted as follows:<br />

It is recommended that Section X of the Business and Financial Plan of the<br />

Convention entitled "Capital Investments" be amended by the Convention by<br />

adding thereto an additional paragraph, which should read as follows:


1953 PROCEEDINGS<br />

"Such consent must be likewise obtained for a purchase of properties (directly<br />

or indirectly or through ownership of controlling stock in other corporations or<br />

otherwise), subject to liens or incumbrances which cannot be repaid out of its<br />

its consent to the proposed amendment of Articles VII and IX of the charter of<br />

the Southern Baptist Hospital so that the same shall henceforth read as follows,<br />

to-wit:<br />

Article VII to be amended to read as follows:<br />

The affairs of this corporation shall be controlled and managed by a<br />

board consisting of not fewer than twenty-five nor more than forty members<br />

of this corporation, nine of whom shall live in or near the City of New<br />

Orleans, Louisiana, and nine of whom shall live in or near the City of<br />

Jacksonville, Florida, which said board is hereby designated as the Board<br />

of Directors of this corporation. They shall be elected annually by the<br />

Southern Baptist Convention at the elections to be had at the annual<br />

meeting of the said Southern Baptist Convention. Vacancies occurring<br />

in the membership of the board during the interim between annual sessions<br />

of the Southern Baptist Convention may be filled by the remaining<br />

members of the board, who for that purpose but no other, may nominate<br />

and elect additional members of this corporation; such members thus<br />

elected to serve until the next succeeding meeting of the Southern Baptist<br />

Convention. Should the Southern Baptist Convention fail for any reason<br />

to elect such members of said board at their annual meetings, then the<br />

members of the board then in office shall continue in office until their<br />

successors are duly elected, qualified and installed.<br />

The Board of Directors shall meet the last Thursday in January and<br />

of the Baptist Memorial Hospital of Jacksonville, Florida. The remaining<br />

three members of the Executive Committee shall consist of the members of<br />

the Board of Directors from Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi. The<br />

Executive Committee shall be vested with the authority to control and<br />

manage the affairs of the corporation in the interim between the meetings<br />

of the Board and may be vested with such other power as the Board may<br />

deem proper to confer upon them. Service of legal process may be made<br />

Recommendation No. I<br />

That we reaffirm our conviction that the Cooperative Program of Southern<br />

for the needs of all our work; and that we continue through every means at our<br />

disposal to urge all Baptists to join in giving the Cooperative Program their<br />

loyal and undivided support.<br />

Mrs. George R. Martin, Virginia, presented Recommendation No.<br />

2 of the Promotion Committee as follows:<br />

Recommendation No. 3<br />

That stewardship revivals or schools of stewardship be conducted during<br />

date. In cases where this date is not feasible, it is suggested that each state<br />

set another date for simultaneous emphasis in the state.<br />

Paul Wheeler, South Carolina, presented Recommendation No. 4<br />

of the Promotion Committee report as follows:<br />

Recommendation No. 4<br />

Because of the seriousness of the non-resident member problem among Southern<br />

Baptists and because of the encouragement that comes from the "Transfer<br />

Church Membership Week" in 1952, it is recommended:<br />

1. That we again have "Transfer Church Membership Week" for all nonresident<br />

members of our Southern Baptist churches, September 13-20, 1953.<br />

2. That every agency in the states and in the Southern Baptist Convention<br />

join in this concerted effort to reach a million and a half nonresident Southern<br />

Baptist church members.<br />

3. That the Home Mission Board, through its Department of Evangelism, lead<br />

wide emphasis to this effort in all its printed materials, publications, and programs.<br />

Membership Week" next year.<br />

Leon M. Latimer, South Carolina, presented Recommendation No.<br />

5 of the Promotion Committee report as follows:<br />

Recommendation No. 5<br />

That the state leaders consider the wisdom of a plan to go into each church<br />

in 1955 with a special one night stewardship conference, utilizing associational<br />

leadership. These conferences and plans for holding them in each church would<br />

be developed in consultation between state, associational, and church leaders. It<br />

is suggested that these conferences be designed to give emphasis to the biblical<br />

message of stewardship, to explain the Cooperative Program, and to give helpful<br />

suggestions on financing the church and its program at home and abroad.<br />

J. Norris Palmer presented Recommendations No. 6 and 7 of the<br />

Promotion Committee report as follows:<br />

Recommendation No. 6<br />

To stimulate giving through the Cooperative Program, we recommend:<br />

1. That churches prayerfully consider giving through the Cooperative Program<br />

on a percentage basis.<br />

2. That as churches go on percentage basis, they undertake to give a larger<br />

percentage through the Cooperative Program than their gifts the preceding year<br />

represented.<br />

3. That we suggest an increase of at least five (5%) per cent of the total<br />

church budget through the Cooperative Program during 1955.<br />

Recommendation No. 7<br />

That the Bible doctrine of the atonement be given emphasis by all means<br />

possible in 1955.<br />

45. On motion of J. Norris Palmer the above recommendations<br />

were adopted.<br />

John H. Buchanan, Alabama, offered the following substitute<br />

motion and moved its adoption: "That this recommendation in regard<br />

to the Royal Ambassadors be referred to the Woman's Missionary<br />

Union with the suggestion that they confer with the Baptist Brotherhood<br />

in regard to the future of Royal Ambassador work." The substitute<br />

motion was lost and the original recommendation carried.<br />

64. Chairman Naylor then read the second recommendation as<br />

follows and moved its adoption:<br />

Recommendation No. 2<br />

Concerning the extra responsibility given to this committee by our last<br />

Convention; namely, "To observe, without cost to the Convention, Scout work<br />

already in progress among Southern Baptist churches. This same committee<br />

is to report to the Convention in Houston in 1953 on the practicality and<br />

desirability of the use of Scouting in interested Southern Baptist churches along<br />

with a recommendation for God and Country Award requirements for Southern<br />

Baptist boys who are Boy Scouts."<br />

This committee, therefore, makes the following report. In the light of the<br />

distinctive nature of our Royal Ambassador program and in view of the statement<br />

with respect to Scouting in the Kansas City meeting of this Convention<br />

in 1923, the committee sees no practicality in promoting another program among<br />

Southern Baptist boys.<br />

However, at present, Scouting presents an award to its members who desire<br />

it called "The God and Country Award." This is recognition of a boy's excellence<br />

in participation in his own church program. In order that this award<br />

may represent our Southern Baptist principles and program, we recommend that<br />

this committee be instructed to draw up requirements suitable for our Baptist<br />

boys to replace the present standard set up by the Protestant Committee on<br />

Scouting of the National Council of Churches.<br />

It is understood that this does not call for Southern Baptist Convention promotion<br />

or distribution, but is an award made by Scouting which conforms to our<br />

Baptist principles and program.<br />

65. Time was extended to allow for discussion.<br />

66. Paul Caudill offered the substitute motion "That the matter<br />

of the God and Country award be referred to the special committee<br />

which was just selected, that they may make further study along with<br />

the continued committee, and report back to the Convention at a<br />

later date. The substitute motion was lost.<br />

67. E. R. Eller, South Carolina, moved the recommendation be<br />

tabled, which carried.<br />

68. President Grey announced nominations for President of the<br />

Convention were in order, and Ramsey Pollard, Tennessee, nominated<br />

50 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

131. J. B. Lawrence then moved, and it carried, that Recommendation<br />

No. 6 of the Report of the Committee on Negro Ministerial Education<br />

be amended to read: "That the committee of the Southern<br />

Baptist Convention on Negro Ministerial Education be continued.<br />

132. The Recommendations as amended in the report on Negro<br />

Ministerial Education were adopted as follows:<br />

Recommendation No. I<br />

That the broadest and most accessible type of institute and in-service training<br />

for the 63 per cent under the high school level be pursued by all the agencies<br />

now working in that field, and that all other concerned agencies be urged to enter<br />

the field. Especially do we encourage our Negro colleges to recognize and accept<br />

their obligation to this group through an extension program.<br />

Recommendation No. 2<br />

That we shall encourage our Negro colleges to indulge some serious selfexamination,<br />

recognizing their limitations and reconsidering their program of<br />

education, with the goal of confining their training to the Liberal Arts level<br />

(A.B. degree) with the distinct idea that such training is an integral part of<br />

a complete program of theological education. We should encourage them to work<br />

toward accreditation in order that they may be able to give our Negro youth<br />

who finish high school a broad liberal arts education, with perhaps a major in<br />

Bible or religious education, and that they shall restrict their education to the<br />

college level and leave seminary training to the seminaries.<br />

Recommendation No. 3<br />

That seminary training for those of that level be broad enough to provide<br />

professional training of an accredited type. All five seminaries of the Southern<br />

Baptist Convention are now open to Negroes, but since some would not wish to<br />

attend these seminaries, we urge that the American Baptist Theological Seminary<br />

be raised as quickly as possible to accredited level. Until such time as this is<br />

done, we would encourage our people to co-operate with Baptist seminaries which<br />

are already accredited or which are near to or striving for accreditation. We<br />

would further urge that these seminaries confine their training to the seminary<br />

level and leave the college work to the colleges.<br />

Recommendation No. 4<br />

That since most of our Negro ministers cannot financially afford such training,<br />

the committee be permitted to promote the giving by individuals and agencies<br />

of at least 100 scholarships or the equivalent thereof annually, to be administered<br />

by the Home Mission Board, 50 of which would be used for seminary training in<br />

those schools which either are accredited or are working toward accreditation<br />

level, the other fifty to be provided on the college level and granted to accredited<br />

or near accredited colleges.<br />

Recommendation No. 5<br />

That we encourage a program similar to our Baptist Student Union Movement<br />

on all Negro college campuses, where a sufficient numberof Baptist students<br />

are enrolled to justify such a program. The purpose here is to keep in touch<br />

with Baptist students and seek out those who are called of God into the ministry,<br />

encouraging them to seek graduate training. We would further suggest that<br />

our Negro colleges encourage their students, who are called of God to special<br />

training, to continue their training in some accredited seminary or one seeking<br />

accreditation. We also suggest that in order for Southern Baptists to render<br />

maximum aid toward achieving these ends, the Convention request the Committee<br />

on Negro Ministerial Education to seek to work out with the proper departments<br />

and agencies a week on the denominational calendar for publicity and promotion<br />

of the facts involved.<br />

Recommendation No. 6<br />

That the Committee of the Southern Baptist Convention on Negro Ministerial<br />

Education be continued.<br />

Motion carried.<br />

That the Southern Baptist Convention record in advance of the actual opening<br />

of the school its concurrence in the establishment of a School of Religious Education<br />

in addition to the School of Church Music and the School of Theology as<br />

part of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.<br />

141. President McCall moved adoption of Recommendation No. 2,<br />

Recommendation No. 2<br />

Baptist Theological Seminary to take any action the Executive Committee<br />

vigor to strengthen Baptist conviction with reference to the dangers of<br />

interdenominationalism and non-denominationalism.<br />

Recommendation No. 2<br />

That the Southern Baptist Convention through its teaching agencies continue<br />

to co-operate with the churches affiliated with our Convention in magnifying the<br />

scriptural, authoritative, position of local, sovereign, New Testament churches,<br />

defined in the constitution of the Southern Baptist Convention as "regular Baptist<br />

the resolution, the audience stood in tribute. Dr. Dawson spoke on<br />

the work of the Public Affairs Committee.<br />

In Appreciation of Achievements of Dr. Joseph Martin Dawson as Executive Director of<br />

Baptist Joint Committee on Public Affairs<br />

Seven years ago, Dr. Joseph Martin Dawson accepted the urgent invitation<br />

of the Baptists of the United States to leave his happy and historic pastorate of<br />

more than thirty-one years at the First Baptist Church, Waco, Texas, to direct<br />

the vital and unique ministry of the Joint Committee of Baptists on Public<br />

Affairs in Washington, D. C.<br />

The achievements of Dr. Dawson in this important undertaking have been<br />

monumental, as attested by the leaders in the four participating Baptist bodies,<br />

and by friends of all the evangelical bodies. His wise and discerning and courageous<br />

leadership has elicited warm and hearty commendation by governmental<br />

leaders in their expressed appreciation of his ability to define and insist upon a<br />

free church in a free state.<br />

Dr. Dawson has written three notable books within this period of seven years,<br />

Separate Church and State Now, 1947; The Liberation of Life, 1950; and his<br />

latest, and perhaps, his greatest book, America's Way in Church, State and<br />

Society. We heartily commend these books to our people, along with the numerous<br />

brochures and articles which he has produced since going to Washington.<br />

His forthright declarations on religious liberty have gained the attention and<br />

respect of the entire nation.<br />

Now that Dr. Dawson has announced his retirement at the end of this year,<br />

or as early as his successor may be installed, we, the messengers to the Southern<br />

Baptist Convention, meeting in Houston, Texas, this the eighth day of May, 1953,<br />

gratefully acknowledge the ministry of Dr. Dawson, in laying wisely and securely<br />

the foundations for this service to Baptists in this and every land, and we pledge<br />

to him our purpose to support prayerfully and uncompromisingly the principles<br />

of religious liberty in our local churches and communities and throughout our<br />

beloved nation. We give thanks unto God upon every remembrance of the achievements<br />

of this beloved servant of God in these years of his faithful leadership<br />

in Washington.<br />

Concerning Advertising of Beer and Cigarettes<br />

Over Radio and TV<br />

WHEREAS, the rapid development in the field of radio and television has<br />

resulted in the acquisition of receiving sets in millions of American homes, and<br />

WHEREAS, it is widely recognized that the coming of television is destined<br />

to have far-reaching effects upon the life of our nation, and<br />

WHEREAS, this influence is felt first of all in the homes of our people,<br />

THEREFORE, be it resolved that the Southern Baptist Convention assembled<br />

in session at Houston, Texas, May 6-10, 1953, go on record as deploring the fact<br />

that the advertising of beer and cigarettes is brought into the average home<br />

daily in a manner which is destined to exert a most unfortunate influence upon<br />

children and young people of impressionable age, and that we protest this invasion<br />

of the sanctity of our homes.<br />

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that we call this matter to the urgent attention<br />

of pastors, parents, and leaders of young people, and urge them to do everything<br />

in their power to combat this increasing danger to Christian home life.<br />

Concerning American Bible Society<br />

BE IT RESOLVED that we fraternally urge all our churches and people to<br />

make worthy contributions to the work of the American Bible Society in order<br />

to provide enough Scriptures for worldwide missionary needs for the printed<br />

Word.<br />

Concerning Communism and other Forms of Tyranny<br />

WHEREAS, millions of people throughout the world today are denied the<br />

benefits of religious, economic, and political freedom by communism and other<br />

forms of tyranny; and<br />

WHEREAS, the denial of these benefits is most conspicuous in those lands,<br />

either formerly or now dominated by a state church; and<br />

WHEREAS, in such countries as Italy, Spain, and certain South American<br />

states minority religious groups are subjected to persecution by the Roman<br />

Catholic hierarchy;<br />

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Southern Baptist Convention<br />

meeting in annual session in Houston, Texas, May 6-10, 1953, extends to all such<br />

people our sympathy and the assurance of our prayers.<br />

Further, we reaffirm our historic and traditional adherence to the principles<br />

of free men and a free church in a free state, and at the same time again call<br />

upon all our Baptist people and all other people of good will to demonstrate such<br />

quality of living as is consonant with these principles.<br />

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that we petition the President of the United<br />

States and the State Department to employ such positive measures as may be<br />

necessary to relieve these distressing conditions and redress these wrongs.<br />

Concerning Hospital in Los Angeles Area<br />

WHEREAS, Southern Baptists have always considered hospital work as<br />

missions and obeying the New Testament teaching, and<br />

WHEREAS, the area of Los Angeles, California, is a metropolitan area of<br />

more than five million people and that the shortage of hospital beds is critical<br />

and growing more critical constantly, and rapidly, and<br />

WHEREAS, this matter has been called to the attention of the Convention<br />

as far back as 1947,<br />

THEREFORE, be it resolved by the Southern Baptist Convention now in<br />

session in Houston this eighth day of May, 1953, that the Hospital Commission<br />

be instructed to consider the feasibility of establishing a Baptist hospital in the<br />

Los Angeles area of California.


56 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Concerning Hospitality in Houston<br />

The Southern Baptist Convention in its 96th Annual Session hereby expresses<br />

appreciation to the Baptists of Texas generally and of Houston specifically for<br />

their Christian hospitality. All local committees are sincerely commended for<br />

their splendid handling of all details. The radio, press, and television authorities<br />

have been generous in giving publicity to the Convention proceedings. Housing<br />

accommodations have been adequate and the place of meeting commodious. Public<br />

officials and the general citizenry have been courteous and helpful.<br />

Concerning Ministers Receiving Social Security Benefits<br />

(Referred to the Executive Committee)<br />

WHEREAS, two bills (H.R. 1236 and H.R. 2249) have been introduced into<br />

the 83rd Congress of the United States which extend Social Security benefits to<br />

ordained, commissioned, or licensed ministers; and<br />

WHEREAS, Social Security participation by ministers may have a direct<br />

bearing on the principle of the separation of church and state; and<br />

WHEREAS, the question of Social Security benefits for Southern Baptist<br />

ministers is vitally related to the services offered by the Relief and Annuity<br />

Board of our Convention; and<br />

WHEREAS, six of the major denominational groups of our country have<br />

already taken action favoring Social Security participation by their ministers; and<br />

WflEREAS, a number of our constituency feel that, as tax-paying citizens<br />

ministers of the gospel should have equal rights and benefits in the Social Security<br />

program along with other tax-paying citizens; therefore,<br />

BE IT RESOLVED: That a special committee of nine (9) members be<br />

appointed to give careful study to the question of participation by ministers in<br />

Social Security benefits, and report its findings and recommendations, if any, to<br />

the Convention in 1954; and<br />

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED; that the program committee, arranging for<br />

the 1954 Convention, provide ample time on the agenda for full consideration of<br />

the matter following the committee's report: and<br />

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED: That should current legislation, or other<br />

factors, make it advisable that some action be taken before our next annual<br />

session, the committee shall make its report, or recommendations, if any, to the<br />

Executive Committee of the Southern Baptist Convention for action' by that<br />

Committee.<br />

Concerning Obscenity in Literature<br />

WHEREAS, there is an extremely sordid, lewd, obscene, and indecent type<br />

of literature published and sold throughout our nation, which disseminates artful<br />

appeals to sensuality, immorality, and degeneracy; and<br />

WHEREAS, this type of indecent literature is largely the product of commercial<br />

exploitation serving no good purpose at all, but rather offending chastity,<br />

modesty, and purity, destroying ideals of home life, encouraging delinquency and<br />

crime and eating like a vicious cancer at the moral integrity and decency of<br />

youths and adults; and<br />

WHEREAS, there is rising nation-wide disgust over this abuse and misuse<br />

of freedom transforming liberty into license; and<br />

WHEREAS, in the 82nd Congress, there was set up a select committee on<br />

current pornographic materials, which has produced an informing and alarming<br />

report to the nation as of December 31, 1952; and<br />

WHEREAS, there are Federal, state, and municipal laws throughout the land<br />

regarding such obscene publications;<br />

BE IT THEREFORE RESOLVED,<br />

First, that the Southern Baptist Convention most heartily commends this<br />

congressional investigation into obscene literature and lend our support to the<br />

legal restraints to arrest this evil.<br />

Second, that we call upon our leaders and people, especially our denominational<br />

press, to help arouse public sentiment and to educate regarding the dangers of<br />

such obscenity.<br />

Third, that we call upon publishers, distributors, and dealers to voluntarily<br />

co-operate in withdrawing from sale all types of literature destructive of the<br />

morality of our nation.<br />

Fourth, that we commend those who are already co-operating m this worthy<br />

endeavor.


1953 PROCEEDINGS 57<br />

Fifth, that this matter be called specifically to the attention of the Editorial<br />

Department of the Sunday School Board, requesting them to work out some<br />

practical plan wherebv the purpose of this resolution may be carried out as fully<br />

as possible.<br />

Concerning Selective Service Legislation for Vocational Lay Religious Leaders<br />

WHEREAS, the resolution passed by this Convention last year requesting<br />

the National Selective Service Headquarters to authorize the 4-D classification<br />

for denominationally-certified, full-time, vocational lay religious workers has not<br />

received a definite statement of policy from this department, and with no indication<br />

that it will, and<br />

WHEREAS, there still exists wide discrepancy on the part of local boards<br />

throughout the country in granting this standing, resulting in great hardship<br />

to individuals, and to churches, with no recourse except an appeal direct to the<br />

President,<br />

THEREFORE, this Convention respectfully petitions the Congress of the<br />

United States to change "and" to "or" in Article 1622.43 Section 16 of selective<br />

service regulations so as to read "preachers or teachers" or provide whatever<br />

other legislation is necessary to give these workers and students preparing for<br />

this work the 4-D classification.<br />

Concerning Simultaneous Evangelistic Crusade<br />

RESOLVED: That this Convention go on record as approving the 1955<br />

Simultaneous Evangelistic Crusade of all Southern Baptist churches and mission<br />

stations, following in the wake of the "Million More in '54" Sunday school<br />

movement by Southern Baptist churches.<br />

We earnestly urge that every church and mission station participate in the<br />

1955 Simultaneous Crusade which begins March 6 and closes April 24.<br />

We most heartily invite the Baptist churches of Cuba, the Republic of Panama,<br />

and Panama Canal Zone to join with us in this great soul-winning effort.<br />

Concerning Use of Tax Funds and Tax-Supported Schools<br />

By Religious Organization<br />

WHEREAS Southern Baptists stand firmly for the separation of church and<br />

state, and have repeatedly affirmed this stand, and<br />

WHEREAS the U. S. Supreme Court, in the McCollum decision of 1948 ruled<br />

against the use of tax-supported schools and tax funds in support of week-day<br />

religious education, and<br />

WHEREAS the Supreme Court's decision in the New York case in 1952 has<br />

been misinterpreted as a reversal of the principles affirmed in the McCollum<br />

decision, although the New York plan involved no use whatever of school property;<br />

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED:<br />

That the Southern Baptist Convention reaffirm its unwavering devotion to<br />

the separation of church and state in its strong opposition to the use of tax<br />

funds and tax-supported schools in favor of any or all religious organizations;<br />

and<br />

That the pastors and churches of our Convention be urged to bear vigorous<br />

witness against unlawful encroachments of local religious groups on the public<br />

SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

HOUSTON, TEXAS<br />

May 6, 1953<br />

J. D. Grey<br />

1953 PROCEEDINGS 61<br />

PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS<br />

When Wendell Phillips visited Plymouth on one occasion, he stood on that<br />

famous Rock. It is said that a citizen of Plymouth approached him and boasted<br />

that their town was very fortunate in having the Rock within its borders. Wendell<br />

Phillips replied: "This Rock underlies all America, it only cropped out here."<br />

We, the messengers of the churches, are met here in far-famed and nobly hospitable<br />

Houston to transact business for the Lord. With paeans of praise and<br />

doxologies of joy, we have begun the ninety-sixth session of the Southern Baptist<br />

Convention. With gratitude to our gracious Heavenly Father we look back over<br />

the road of service this Convention has marched for one hundred and eight years.<br />

During these brief but significant days, we shall enjoy the "fellowship of kindred<br />

minds" and sing again the songs of Zion. Reports of our agencies and institutions<br />

will thrill our hearts. Numerous brethren will inspire us with a fresh insight into<br />

the Word of God as they focus our attention upon our blessed Lord. Led by the<br />

Spirit of God, we shall survey the past, evaluate the present, and face the future.<br />

Blessed by his Presence, we shall understand and feel again the spirit that is the<br />

Southern Baptist Convention.<br />

Fortunate indeed are we to be in the midst of and a part of this spirit. But,<br />

paraphrasing Wendell Phillips, let us say, "This spirit underlies our entire Southern<br />

Baptist life, it only crops out here!"<br />

It is significant that our Convention should meet in Houston, Texas. It is<br />

worthy of note that this is the only city in which we have ever met that was named<br />

for a Baptist. Texas history records the fact that General Sam Houston was<br />

baptized by Rufus C. Burleson in Little Rocky Creek near Independence in 1854<br />

into the fellowship of the Independence Baptist Church. Three years later when<br />

the Texas Baptist Convention met at Huntsville, General Houston reported as<br />

Chairman of the Indian Missions Committee.<br />

There is another significant fact about our meeting in Texas. No other state<br />

in the Union, save Rhode Island, owes as much to the Baptist spirit and love of<br />

liberty in its political genesis as the Lone Star State. The Texas Declaration of<br />

Independence was adopted on March 2, 1836, in a blacksmith shop at Washington<br />

owned by a Baptist, N. T. Byars, who later became a preacher. The Baptist spirit<br />

of soul-freedom as well as political freedom, along with that of others, swept like<br />

a mighty prairie fire across these plains until the unholy alliance of political<br />

despotism and ecclesiastical absolutism was destroyed root and branch. Whenever<br />

the battle cry was raised, "Remember the Alamo! Remember Goliad!" every Texan<br />

recalled that two praying Baptist preachers had fallen beneath the stroke of the<br />

assassins at Goliad. And when on April 21, the Mexican army, led by General<br />

Santa Anna, was defeated on the battlefield of San Jacinto, within a few miles of<br />

this Coliseum, General Houston announced to the people of Texas, "By the blessing<br />

of God the war is over! The Mexicans are driven beyond the Rio Grande." The<br />

days of the colonial impresarios were over, and religious liberty was secured!<br />

While the pattern for the Republic of Texas was being developed, and as the<br />

Lone Star rose in its ascendency until it was firmly fixed in the firmament of our<br />

Republic with the admission of Texas to the Union in 1845, many other states<br />

made their contribution to this cause of freedom. Two of the foremost were the<br />

Old Dominion and the Volunteer State. Virginia mothered Sam Houston; Tennessee<br />

developed him and gave him, along with Davy Crockett and others, to the<br />

cause of Texas independence. An almost holy passion had been kindled in the<br />

hearts of all these patriots in the states east of the Mississippi. This fire burst<br />

into a mighty conflagration in the Texas Declaration of Independence adopted in<br />

the blacksmith shop of the Baptist N. T. Byars with another Baptist layman, Judge<br />

Richard Ellis, presiding. That Declaration spelled out those ideals held by Baptists<br />

and other lovers of freedom as it emphatically complained of the omissions<br />

of the Mexican Government.


62 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

They said, "It denies us the right of worshipping the Almighty according to<br />

the dictates of our own consciences; by the support of a national religion calculated<br />

to promote the temporal interests of its human functionaries rather than the<br />

glory of the true and living God." And, mark it well, they were making articulate<br />

the convictions of another lover of freedom, Roger Williams, who, two hundred<br />

years prior to that, had founded Rhode Island. They were following the shining<br />

example of Baptists and others, who just sixty years before, notably in old Virginia,<br />

had pled and bled for the cause of liberty. History can never forget those<br />

Baptist preachers in Virginia who gladly suffered in prison for the cause of freedom<br />

not merely as a political expediency, but as a deep, fundamental, religious<br />

conviction. And so, in this place, we behold the outcropping of freedom's rock<br />

which underlies all America and upon which our nation must ever rest secure!<br />

But we see here also the outcropping of another spirit which has always characterized<br />

Baptists. Just as those noble patriots came from east of the Mississippi<br />

to take up arms and suffer for freedom's cause, so also our Baptist brethren came<br />

from the east to lift up, live out, and suffer for the gospel of the divine Son of God.<br />

This outcropping of the spirit of conquest for Christ is the mighty expression of<br />

the missionary passion which has ever and must always characterize Baptists.<br />

There is freedom in Texas today because men dedicated to the cause of freedom<br />

came here and fought that freedom might be established. There are Baptists in<br />

Texas today, praise God a mighty army of them, because Baptist preachers, and<br />

laymen alike, imbued with the missionary spirit, came here and suffered, bled,<br />

and died that the cause of Christ might be established.<br />

Time would fail us to speak of Joseph Bays, the first Baptist preacher who ever<br />

preached in Texas; Z. N. Morrell, who delivered the first sermon ever preached in<br />

this city, in the year 1837; William Tryon, who under appointment of the Home<br />

Board of the Southern Baptist Convention, began his work as a missionary in<br />

Houston, July 25, 1845; James Huckins, who came to Texas in 1840 as a missionary<br />

of the American Baptist Home Mission Society as pastor of the First Baptist<br />

Church at Galveston; R. E. B. Baylor, that distinguished lawyer and jurist who<br />

was also a flaming and faithful preacher of the Gospel; W. H. Bayless; Major<br />

W. E. Penn, the noted evangelist; N. T. Byars; and a noble galaxy of other intrepid<br />

and consecrated souls.<br />

Those men, fired with a missionary passion, came to Texas not as vacationists,<br />

but as vicars of Christ; not to dawdle, but to dare; not to loll lazily in luxury, but<br />

to light fires for the Lord; not to practice philosophical gymnastics, but to preach<br />

as dying men to dying men. That they felt they were expendable for Christ, is<br />

shown by an example of the daring Z. N. Morrell. The whole situation was tense.<br />

Brave Ben Milam, at the price of his life, had defeated General Cos and the large<br />

Mexican army in San Antonio. Prohibitions had been in force against any and all<br />

preachers of the evangelical faith. A Baptist minister, Isaac Reed, arrived in<br />

east Texas in 1834. He explained his silence thus: "It probably would have cost<br />

a man his life to have preached other than Catholic doctrines so near to Nacogdoches,<br />

the headquarters in east Texas at that time." But on a January election<br />

day in 1836 in old Nacogdoches, Z. N. Morrell, sick of body but resolute of soul,<br />

mounted the foundation timbers of an unfinished house and called a crowd around<br />

him. While they gathered he led in singing, "Am I a Soldier of the Cross?" He<br />

prayed and then preached from the thirty-fifth chapter of Isaiah on, "The wilderness<br />

and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice,<br />

and blossom as the rose." Here we see an outcropping of the Baptist spirit, of<br />

daring missionary, evangelistic conquest!<br />

Another outcropping of the Southern Baptist spirit*is the exemplification and<br />

fruition of our denominational pattern of missionary endeavor. A "chain reaction,"<br />

so to speak, was started in South Carolina when the Charleston Baptist Association<br />

was organized in 1751. In the realm of Christian Education, these brethren set a<br />

glorious example. Out of their Educational Fund, chartered in 1791, came Furman<br />

University. The fund became the theological endowment of Furman and was the<br />

nucleus of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. It was given to the<br />

Seminary at its beginning in 1859. Then, too, this denominational pattern about<br />

which we speak is exemplified in another direction. Jesse Mercer, educated by<br />

this fund, went to Georgia and established a university which, until this day, bears<br />

his name. In 1839 the Baptist church at Washington, Texas, addressed an appeal<br />

for at least four men to serve in Texas. They set a high standard for these missionaries,<br />

saying, "We need men of understanding, of deep research, of giant<br />

intellect, clothed with the spirit of the gospel as a garment, that they may confound<br />

all our opposers, disseminate light, establish the churches, and be the means of<br />

pulling down the strongholds of Satan and building up the kingdom of God." The


1953 PROCEEDINGS 63<br />

American Baptist Home Mission Society responded to their appeal. Being typical<br />

lexans, never leaving any ground unturned, they worked the turn-rows and the<br />

Tfc 1C %fc 0r - ne - rs " They sent copies of their appeal also to various Baptist newspapers.<br />

1tie Christian Index of Georgia printed it with editorial endorsement, commending<br />

the plea to the Home Mission Society of New York, then operating in the South.<br />

Jesse Mercer, like every good Baptist should do, received and read his Baptist<br />

paper. He added his appeal and substantiated it with a personal subscription of<br />

twenty-five hundred dollars. This produced the profound effect of giving inspiration<br />

to the whole cause of Home Missions in Texas and the Southland. James<br />

Huckms was the first missionary under the new program to arrive in Texas.<br />

Within a year he was followed by William Tryon, a graduate of Mercer University,<br />

who had been ordained in 1837 by Jesse Mercer and associates.<br />

Through the efforts of these two missionaries and Judge R. E. B. Baylor,<br />

Christian education was begun. On February 1, 1845, a charter was approved by<br />

the Congress of the Republic of Texas, and Baylor University came into being at<br />

old Independence. Exactly sixty years later, under the valiant leadership of that<br />

spiritual and intellectual giant, B. H. Carroll, a Theological Seminary was established<br />

as a part of Baylor. Two years later it was separated and became an<br />

independent institution and its name changed to Southwestern Baptist Theological<br />

Seminary. In 1910 it was moved to its present site on Seminary Hill, Fort Worth.<br />

In 1923 that mighty soul and denominational statesman, L. R. Scarborough, who<br />

had succeeded B. H. Carroll as president of Southwestern, on behalf of the Board<br />

of Trustees, offered the Seminary to the Southern Baptist Convention meeting in<br />

Kansas City. A resolution offered by Dr. John Jeter Hurt was adopted, expressing<br />

the Convention's pleasure over the offer and authorizing the appointment of a<br />

committee to work out terms of acceptance. The next year at the Atlanta Convention,<br />

the committee, headed by Dr. George W. McDaniel, reported favorably<br />

on the proposition. Our Convention voted unanimously to take over its control<br />

and support.<br />

Thus we see the outcropping of the spirit that is the genius of our organized<br />

denominational life. A co-operative program was begun by the Baptists of South<br />

Carolina one hundred sixty-two years ago which, aided by Baptist mission boards,<br />

papers, schools, and other agencies, has given to Southern Baptists these two<br />

great seminaries, Southern at Louisville, and Southwestern at Fort Worth. But<br />

this is not all of the story. Through these two seminaries, Southern Baptists have<br />

wrought out a pattern of theological education and a program for the training of<br />

lay workers that is being blessed of God in our three other seminaries—New<br />

Orleans, Golden Gate, and Southeastern. During the past eight months I have<br />

been inspired by our program for a trained ministry as I have been privileged to<br />

speak in all five of our seminaries. These institutions, together with our many<br />

Baptist colleges and universities supported by the state conventions, are dedicated<br />

to the sentiment found carved in stone at Harvard University, "That an educated<br />

ministry might not perish from the earth." But the large numbers of zealous<br />

young men knocking at the doors of our five seminaries for admission is both<br />

encouraging and depressing. Encouraging, because while many denominations<br />

are lamenting their shortage of ministerial students. Southern Baptists behold a<br />

steady stream of consecrated young men surrendering for the ministry. Depressing,<br />

because each year many are denied admission due to the yet crowded conditions<br />

in our seminaries—this, not withstanding the fact that vast fields of the world<br />

with masses of countless millions without Christ are crying out, "Laborers, laborers,<br />

more laborers, oh, Lord!"<br />

Another outcropping of this spirit that underlies Southern Baptists can be<br />

discerned in the example of the dividends that accrue from evangelizing the homeland.<br />

The investment made by the Southern Baptist Convention in this state<br />

through all those early years has borne fruit many hundredfold. Every dollar<br />

put into the work through all the years has been turned back into the stream of our<br />

denominational missionary program multiplied many times over. In a very real<br />

sense, the contributions made by our denomination have not been gifts; they have<br />

been the wisest and most profitable investments any corporation has ever made.<br />

The labor done by Southern Baptists has caused the work to grow apace until Texas<br />

is now a gigantic "Baptist empire." The result has been that those who first were<br />

the objects of the Home Mission enterprise have become, along with others, primary<br />

subjects in advancing it. And let him who would, in a faint-hearted and shortsighted<br />

fashion, whisper that the service of the Home Mission Board is no longer<br />

needed, look across Texas and beyond to the sprawling areas of ripe harvest fields<br />

in the West and the Northwest.<br />

Let Southern Baptists "face up" to their obligation to answer this modern


64 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Macedonian call as promptly and energetically as did Paul and his brethren at<br />

Troas. Let us be done with a "penny wise and pound foolish" point of view that<br />

whispers little lullabies and pious "ditties" over non-existent, comity agreements<br />

and cries to maintain the status quo. More, much more, is involved than ethereal<br />

and nebulous "fraternal relations." Souls are going to hell without Christ. Entire<br />

communities go on their godless way without a solitary church of any denomination<br />

to hold forth the Word of Life. Let us no longer stand back, our ears stopped<br />

with the soft down of indifference, our mouths stuffed with the "cotton candy" of<br />

sweet sentimentality, and our hands and feet bound with the red tape of "proper<br />

procedure." If Southern Baptists had been as long answering the call from Texas<br />

for missionaries as we have been in answering the call of our western brethren,<br />

mesquite brush and tumble weeds would have overgrown every church in this state,<br />

and coyotes and jack rabbits would be sleeping in all their vestibules. But, no, what<br />

is worse, every "ism" (Dr. R. G. Lee says that ought to be a "wasm") would have<br />

taken over this state as they are about to do in the far West, even in this hour.<br />

The outcropping of this spirit of evangelizing the homeland calls for our best<br />

today as it did one hundred years ago. Our brethren in the far West ask for our<br />

assistance, but they are not resting in supine inactivity until we get there. During<br />

these recent years I have met with them in their conventions and evangelistic<br />

conferences. Their noble spirit is expressed in the sentiment of this verse which<br />

they often quote:<br />

On these deserts let me labor,<br />

In these mountains let me tell<br />

How He died, the blessed Saviour<br />

To redeem a world from hell.<br />

Not only does the outcropping of the missionary spirit for evangelizing<br />

homeland summon us to the West, but it calls us to reach the masses in our great<br />

cities. The rural areas are rapidly becoming depopulated. For every tractor put<br />

to use on a farm, one family moves to the city. An eminent sociologist from<br />

Peabody College told our Promotion Conference in Oklahoma City in March that<br />

one thousand country churches are dying every year. To be sure, our Home Mission<br />

Board will continue to strengthen our work in the rural areas, but the Board must<br />

be given enlarged support for its City Mission Program. The ungodliness of our<br />

nation demands that Southern Baptists, through a vigorous Home Mission Program,<br />

meet the challenge. Just- as long as one marriage out of every four winds up in<br />

the divorce court, as long as our annual crime bill is twenty-five billion dollars,<br />

and as long as our nation has only one hundred eighty-two thousand churches of all<br />

faiths, but four hundred thousand bars, saloons, and other outlets for liquor, our<br />

Home Mission Board is still needed. Every reasonable man must agree that<br />

patriotic duty as well as Christian compulsion demands that we do our best to save<br />

our nation from destruction.<br />

Another mighty outcropping of the spirit that is Southern Baptists', discernible<br />

at this Convention, has to do with the glorious cause of world missions. Every<br />

church we organize in the homeland, every institution we set up, every program<br />

we project, should have as its end result the giving of the gospel of Christ to all<br />

peoples of all the world. The spirit of missions, or world evangelization, has made<br />

us what we are and it and only it will maintain us. Well has Dr. Robert E. Speer<br />

said, "Any man who has a religion is bound to do one of two things with it—<br />

change it or spread it. If it isn't true, he must give it up. If it is true, he must<br />

give it away." What is true of individuals is doubly true of churches and denominations.<br />

The formula for Christian growth operates like a miracle. Dr. Truett<br />

often used to quote Spurgeon as saying, "There was an old man some thought him<br />

mad; the more he gave away the more he had."<br />

The record of giving among Southern Baptists the past fifty years shows conclusively<br />

that they subscribe to this principle of giving and growing. In 1902,<br />

our per capita giving to all causes was $2.64 with 63 cents for missions. In 1942,<br />

our per capita giving to all causes was $9.73 with $1.80 going for missions. But<br />

last year, 1952, our per capita giving to all causes had increased to $32.48 for all<br />

causes with $6.00 going for missions. We haven't reached the ideal yet, but we<br />

are making progress. We thank the Lord that Southern Baptists, through their<br />

great Foreign Mission Board, now have over nine hundred missionaries working<br />

in thirty-two areas of the world. But still we have not enlisted all our people in<br />

tnem, and doing it without complaining! They said again and again, "Do not feel<br />

sorry ior us—but rather feel sorry for yourselves at home that you are not<br />

privileged to labor for the Master in this rich harvest field!"<br />

This spirit of sacrifice for Christ, which we see outcropping here, compels us<br />

to become more vitally related to the missionary enterprise. Nothing, nothing in<br />

the world, must cause us to slacken our pace or lessen our gifts for missions. Many<br />

of us in our local churches are contemplating, or have already completed, magnificent<br />

new buildings. Yes, we need them, and we must have them if we are to reach<br />

people with the gospel in communities where we serve. But, oh, beloved, how<br />

tragic indeed it would be to erect one of these fine new buildings and force the<br />

missionaries to pay for it. We must not chide nor criticize any in this regard, but<br />

it is our solemn duty to remind one another that any building erected at the expense<br />

of missions cannot and must not be dedicated to the glory of God. The statistics<br />

for 1952 encourage us in the thought that Southern Bapists agree with this sentiment.<br />

For instance, last year our mission gifts increased 23 percent while our<br />

gain in property valuation was only 17 percent. A reversal in this proportion<br />

would indicate "spiritual imbalance" and be indicative of a dangerous trend.<br />

However, more than the mere matter of money for missions is involved. We<br />

must give renewed emphasis to providing man power for missions. Wider missionary<br />

education is a crying need in all areas of our denominational life. Perhaps one<br />

of the reasons for our increased activity in missions is that our people are increasing<br />

their knowledge of missions. It will be a great day for the missionary cause<br />

and for our whole denominational life when every Baptist reads his state Baptist<br />

paper, our Foreign Mission and Home Mission journals, as well as our numerous<br />

missionary publications. We must also increase our effort to train our young<br />

people for the mighty challenge of missions. We salute our Woman's Missionary<br />

Union for the splendid work which they are accomplishing through their young<br />

people's organizations. Our men need to take seriously the request of Paul and<br />

"help those women." Many of our deacons and other capable men ought to be<br />

serving as counselors in Royal Ambassador Chapters. These who are mere lads<br />

today will be the men leading our churches tomorrow. Many missionaries have<br />

testified that their first impression that God wanted them in the mission field came<br />

when they were a G.A., R.A., or even a Sunbeam. But even those who are not<br />

called to go down to the mission field will stay at home and "hold the ropes" by<br />

supporting missions so others can go.<br />

Our sixty-nine Baptist schools—academies, colleges, universities, and seminaries<br />

—are continuing to make a significant contribution to the missionary cause. They<br />

are training thousands of young preachers and missionaries. As long as they stay<br />

true to the Word of God and loyal to the work of God, Southern Baptists will<br />

continue to grow. But sad indeed will be that day when they become scholarly<br />

for scholarship's sake and cease to emphasize a compassionate heart along with<br />

a trained intellect. When they do, Southern Baptists will become ritualistic, formal,<br />

cold, and dead like so many decadent denominations. At this Convention we shall<br />

face realistically the matter of giving a greater support to our Baptist schools.<br />

What Southern Baptists will be and do one hundred years from now will be<br />

determined by what we do with and for our schools this year and next.<br />

By the same token, those having to do with these schools have a tremendous<br />

responsibility to our denomination. God grant that they will give increasing<br />

1946, J. B. Phillips, an English scholar, completed his translation of the twentyone<br />

New Testament epistles. Entitled, "Letters to Young Churches," it was published<br />

in this country by the Macmillan Company. In his translator's preface,<br />

Phillips comments on the fact that the early Christians accomplished what they<br />

did because they were on fire with conviction. Then he says significantly, "Perhaps<br />

if we believed what they believed, we might achieve what they achieved." He is<br />

right, for "believing and achieving" go hand in hand. Certainly no man of studied<br />

judgment would suggest that this Convention violate the sovereignty of the<br />

churches, set itself up as a hierarchical, ecclesiastical authority handing down<br />

encyclicals, edicts, and mandates. However, it must be remembered that we have<br />

gone forward "propagating the gospel" as we have because this Convention has<br />

held to certain deep doctrinal convictions. Historically and practically, missions<br />

is a doctrine. The "hard-shells" split with us over this doctrine. Christian Education<br />

is another. Stewardship, emphasizing the tithe as the minimum, is another.<br />

Again and again this Convention has underscored its conviction on this by endorsing,<br />

"Every Baptist a Tither." This is as it should be. And yet, when twenty-six<br />

hundred of our churches give nothing to missions and 80 percent of our members<br />

do not tithe, no one suggests that they be "read out" of the Convention. We must<br />

go on holding convictions on these and other doctrines that have distinguished our<br />

people through the years.<br />

Southern Baptists have a job to do for the Lord. They can best do it in their<br />

own way and perform their duty as God gives to them to see their duty. We are<br />

pressured by two conflicting forces. On one side is the ecumenicalism of "United<br />

Protestantism"; on the other is the "anything-ism" of non-denominationalism. We<br />

are like a healthy, wealthy, attractive young lady. These ambitious "Lotharios"<br />

are "making eyes" at us. But we have not, cannot, and will not even "drop our<br />

handkerchief" to invite or encourage their attention. However, a few neighborhood<br />

gossips are whispering over their back fences that the wedding date has<br />

already been set. But those who know the least always talk the most.<br />

One would-be suitor has made bold to announce that a chair is being reserved<br />

for us. But this young lady in all graciousness would suggest that before she<br />

occupies that chair it will have become an antique. She feels that for her, this<br />

chair would be virtually an "electric chair." Personally I think the young lady is<br />

correct. For the moment she sits down in that chair, she signs her own death<br />

warrant and sets the date of her execution. This young lady doesn't object to<br />

being friendly with her ambitious suitors, but she has no matrimonial intentions.<br />

My brethren, let Southern Baptists face the future in faith, and continue in<br />

a united spirit to take up the task of the Lord with strengthened hands. During a<br />

crisis in the Texas Convention many years ago, Dr. B. H. Carroll gave this admonition,<br />

"Let us bury our differences beneath the cross." We have always been able<br />

to do this. We will continue to do it this year and through all the years.<br />

In 1921 the Southern Baptist Convention met in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Dr.<br />

J. B. Gambrell, who had relinquished the gavel the year before to Dr. E. Y. Mullins,<br />

had just returned from a tour of Europe. He was exhausted in body, but as usual,<br />

resilient in spirit. Unable to attend the Convention he sent a message of five<br />

short words which this Convention needs to hear and heed. That immortal Baptist<br />

statesman, "Uncle Gideon," said, ". . . Do right and go forward!"


1953 PROCEEDINGS<br />

1952 IN RETROSPECT<br />

J. P. EDMUNDS, Secretary, Department of Survey, Statistics, and Information<br />

Baptist Sunday School Board<br />

Southern Baptists reported a membership of 7,634,493 at the close of 1952.<br />

We can reach the eight million mark in 1953 by reporting a gain of 365,507 for<br />

the current year. By so doing, we would be gaining our last million in three<br />

years, a record unparalleled in our history.<br />

Our 1952 record brings to light several encouraging facts about our Southern<br />

Baptist growth. May we note a few:<br />

Baptisms in our churches have increased 50.9 per cent during the period<br />

1947-52, compared with a similar six-year period 1941-46. Total baptisms from<br />

1941-46 were 1,349,304, compared with 2,036,264 from 1947-52. In other words,<br />

Southern Baptists have baptized over two million persons in six years, for an<br />

average of 339,377 per year. And, our record for the past four years is even<br />

better, with an average of 360,211 baptisms per year for the four years. Our<br />

program of evangelism is paying rich dividends.<br />

Southern Baptists are also growing in their stewardship. Since 1944 our<br />

total per capita gifts have increased from $13.51 to $32.48; and mission per<br />

capita gifts have increased from $3.05 to $6.00 in 1952. Total gifts during this<br />

period, 1944-52, increased from 76 million dollars to 248 million in 1952.<br />

Recently, we have had an occasion to check the record of Southern Baptists<br />

from 1935-52, the period during which Dr. T. L. Holcomb has served as<br />

Executive Secretary of the Baptist Sunday School Board. During that period our<br />

church membership increased 73.9 per cent; Sunday school enrolment, 73.9 per<br />

cent; Training Union enrolment, 150.6 per cent; Vacation Bible school enrolment,<br />

1361 per cent; W.M.U. enrolment, 92.7 per cent; and total gifts increased<br />

891 per cent.<br />

Southern Baptists have great cause for rejoicing, but, likewise, have an<br />

impelling motive to push back their frontiers until the last frontier is a Baptist<br />

stronghold.<br />

TWENTY-SIXTH <strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT<br />

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE<br />

PORTER ROUTH, Executive Secretary and Treasurer<br />

MERRILL D. MOORE, Director of Promotion and Associate Secretary<br />

ALBERT McCLELLAN, Director of Publications and Associate Secretary<br />

AUSTIN CROUCH, Executive Secretary Emeritus<br />

J. E. DILLARD, Director of Promotion Emeritus<br />

C. C. WARREN, President<br />

The Southern Baptist Convention instructs the Executive Committee, "To act<br />

for the Convention ad interim in all matters not otherwise provided for," and<br />

to serve as "the executive agency of the Convention in all affairs not specifically<br />

committed to some other board or agency." The Bylaws state "the Executive<br />

Committee shall not have authority to control or direct the several boards,<br />

agencies, and institutions of the Convention. But it is instructed and commissioned<br />

to study the affairs of those boards, agencies, and institutions of the<br />

Convention, and to make recommendations to them concerning needed adjustments,<br />

and also to make whatsoever recommendations concerning them to the<br />

Convention it deems advisable."<br />

SECTION I: ADMINISTRATION<br />

Gifts Reach Record High<br />

Acting as the disbuising agent for the Convention in gifts for missions,<br />

cation, and benevolences from the churches received through the state executive<br />

offices, the Executive Committee reported total receipts during the year of<br />

$13,923,025.73, compared with $12,151,636.09 for 1951. The Cooperative Program<br />

receipts increased from $8,101,421.63 in 1951 to $9,076,047.82 in 1952.<br />

Of the total amount received, $7,482,064.20, or 53.74 per cent, went to the<br />

Foreign Mission Board, and $2,590,580.22, or 18.61 per cent, went to the Home<br />

Mission Board. However, the per capita gift for all Southern Baptist Convention<br />

causes, both designated and through the Cooperative Program, amounted<br />

to only $1.82; and the Southern Baptist Convention's share of the Cooperative<br />

Program amounted to only $1.19 per capita.<br />

Matters Referred to Executive Committee by Convention<br />

I. Enlarged Executive Committee<br />

The 1952 Convention approved the policy of enlarging the Executive Committee<br />

and asked the Executive Committee "in co-operation with the administrative


EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE 71<br />

officers of the institutions and agencies of the Convention, and the state secretaries,<br />

and editors, to study the matter and bring from the December meeting a<br />

recommendation to the 1953 Convention."<br />

A committee was named with representatives from the Executive Committee,<br />

the state secretaries, the agencies, and the editors, and the proposed recommendations<br />

were then sent to all of the agency heads, state secretaries, and<br />

editors for suggestions. The recommendation which is presented under Recommendations<br />

comes representing the best thinking of all of these groups.<br />

2. Seating of Messengers<br />

The Executive Committee was asked "to implement in any necessary way<br />

the action of the 1949 Convention regarding the seating of messengers."<br />

In keeping with this action, the Committee on Convention Arrangements<br />

brought a recommendation which was approved by the Executive Committee, as<br />

follows: "We recommend that at the 1953 annual Convention, and at subsequent<br />

Conventions (a) an adequate number of seats in the Convention hall be<br />

held for messengers until the scheduled time for each session to open, beginning<br />

with the Wednesday evening session; (b) that admission to the section or sections<br />

reserved for messengers be upon presentation of Convention badge."<br />

These instructions have been given to the Houston committee.<br />

3. Convention City<br />

On recommendation of the Committee on Time, Place, and Preacher, the<br />

1952 Convention instructed "the Executive Committee to study the advisability<br />

of selecting a city, centrally located, in which the Convention may hold its sessions<br />

regularly." This matter has been referred to the Committee on Convention<br />

Arrangements, but no recommendation is made at this time.<br />

4. Convention Proceedings<br />

The Convention directed the Executive Committee "to study ways and means<br />

of a quicker distribution of the Convention proceedings either (1) by mailing<br />

the Convention Bulletin to every Southern Baptist pastor, or (2) by including<br />

the proceedings in the next issue of The Baptist P?-ogram, or other method as<br />

the Committee may deem feasible."<br />

In keeping with this action, the specific actions of the Southern Baptist Convention<br />

were published in The Baptist Program in the issue after the Convention<br />

was held. This practice will be continued.<br />

5. Fiscal Year of Seminaries<br />

The recommendation brought by the Southern Baptist Seminary regarding<br />

the change in fiscal year was referred to the Executive Committee, and a recommendation<br />

is presented under Recommendations implementing this change.<br />

6. Church Loan Fund<br />

On motion of J. B. Lawrence, the 1952 Convention "authorized its Executive<br />

Committee to consider and act upon such requests as the Home Mission Board<br />

may make looking to the enlarged usefulness of its three church loan funds."<br />

At the meeting of the Executive Committee in June, 1952, the Home Mission<br />

Board asked for authority to borrow $500,000, for its Church Loan Fund, and the<br />

request was approved by the following action:<br />

"Under authority of the Southern Baptist Convention on May 17, 1952, the<br />

Executive Committee of the Southern Baptist Convention hereby authorizes the<br />

Home Mission Board to borrow a sum not to exceed $500,000, at a rate of interest<br />

not to exceed 3 per cent per annum, to mature under its original terms of any<br />

or all renewals thereto within a period of five years, to be loaned to churches<br />

on terms and under such conditions as the Home Mission Board of the Southern<br />

Baptist Convention may prescribe, interest of such loans to be not less than<br />

5 per cent per annum, provided the Home Mission Board will agree in its midyear<br />

meeting, August 1952, to apply $100,000 annually to this loan from its<br />

Capital Needs Funds and its percentage of its Advance Receipts."<br />

The Executive Committee also appointed a committee of five members to<br />

make further study and to confer with the Home Mission Board about the "enlarged<br />

usefulness of its three church loan funds."<br />

The Committee on Church Loans of the Executive Committee made a careful<br />

study of the needs and opportunities, and met with the committee of the Home<br />

Mission Board several times.


72 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

The following report was approved at the December meeting of the Executive<br />

Committee:<br />

(1) That the Executive Committee is convinced that there is great need for<br />

church buildings in the West and other parts of our Convention territory.<br />

(2) That we recognize that the Home Mission Board is our denominational<br />

agency through which Southern Baptists should seek to meet these needs.<br />

(3) That we recognize that the availability of substantial loan funds for<br />

church buildings will make it possible for many additional churches to reach<br />

more people, and to participate more fully in the plans and programs of _our<br />

Convention and its agencies.<br />

(4) That we commend the Home Mission Board for its long-range program<br />

to increase the corpus of its loan funds in accordance with the provisions of the<br />

Business and Financial Plan of the Convention. The Home Mission Board indicates<br />

the following sources from which they hope to raise said funds:<br />

a. Annuities.<br />

b. A portion of its percentage of the Advance section of the Cooperative<br />

Program budget, beginning with 1952 receipts.<br />

c. The designation of $100,000 from the 1953 Annie Armstrong Offering.<br />

d. Gifts from donors who have a special interest in these mission projects,<br />

such solicitations to be made in accordance with the Convention's Business<br />

and Financial Plan.<br />

(5) Inasmuch as these plans of the Home Mission Board comply fully with<br />

the Business and Financial Plan of the Convention, we recognize that the Home<br />

Mission Board is free to proceed with their plans on that basis, and we recommend<br />

that we lend every encouragement to their efforts in behalf of these needy<br />

churches and seek to integrate such efforts with and relate them to the entire<br />

promotional program of the Convention.<br />

(6) That your committee be discharged.<br />

Other Matters<br />

On the request of Southwestern Seminary and the Radio Commission, the<br />

Executive Committee approved a motion to allow them "to use their current 1952<br />

capital fund receipts to restore their operating reserve which was used, with the<br />

approval of the Convention, for capital needs."<br />

The Executive Committee also approved a request by the Home Mission Board,<br />

pending further action by the Convention, "that approval is given to the writing<br />

of annuity contracts by the Home Mission Board for the benefit of its Church<br />

Building and Loan Fund, at the same rates used by the Relief and Annuity<br />

Board and by the Southern Baptist Foundation, with no obligation to trustee<br />

the same with the last named agencies."<br />

Charters of Institutions<br />

The Executive Committee approved the report of a special Committee on<br />

Charters, which has been studying the charters of the various institutions for a<br />

number of years.<br />

The report is as follows:<br />

"The charters of all institutions are now in accord with the resolution of the<br />

Convention of 1947 (see 1947 Book of Reports, p. 7, and 1947 Annual, p. 35) with<br />

the exception of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. The charter of that institution<br />

as regards election of trustees is in accord with such Convention plan,<br />

as it provides that the Seminary shall select each trustee from a list of two<br />

approved by the Committee on Boards.<br />

"The requirements fixed by the Convention, however, that the charters of<br />

institutions shall contain provision that the same may not be changed without<br />

Convention approval, the Seminary has not yet complied with. Its Executive<br />

Committee is recommending to its trustees that this provision be inserted in its<br />

charter, but limited to that provision of the charter touching the matter of election<br />

of trustees only. Your committee is of the opinion that such amendment<br />

will not be a compliance with the action of the Convention of 1947."<br />

The Executive Committee voted that the Committee on Charters be continued<br />

"until the institutions comply with and carry out the instructions of the Convention."<br />

New Quarters<br />

During the past year, the Executive Committee has been provided with new<br />

quarters on the third floor of the addition built by the Sunday School Board at


EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE 73<br />

127 Ninth Avenue, North, Nashville, Tennessee. In appreciation for this service,<br />

the Executive Committee approved the following resolution:<br />

"The Administrative Committee wishes to take this means of expressing our<br />

profound appreciation to T. L. Holcomb and the Sunday School Board for their<br />

most gracious provision of the entire third floor of this beautiful and commodious<br />

building for the use of the Executive Committee."<br />

Opdyke Fund<br />

The Executive Committee approved $10,000 for scholarship funds for the<br />

school year 1952-53, and recommended 111 scholarships, totaling $10,100, for<br />

the school year 1953-54. Of this number 29 awards are to be made to senior<br />

colleges, 33 to junior colleges, 24 to academies, and 25 to a preachers school.<br />

Ambassador to the Vatican<br />

The Executive Committee took cognizance of the new administration and<br />

sent a letter to President Eisenhower, expressing the hope "that the new Administration<br />

will not renew any form of diplomatic relations with the Vatican or<br />

any other ecclesiastical body." The resolution was transmitted to the President<br />

through a member of the Executive Committee, E. H. Pruden, and Senator Frank<br />

Carlson, of Kansas. The President acknowledged receipt of the resolution, and<br />

expressed appreciation for the viewpoint expressed.<br />

SECTION II: PROMOTION<br />

Schools of Stewardship, 1953<br />

Plans have gone forward most satisfactorily for the Schools of Stewardship<br />

this fall. In at least sixteen of the states the schools are being held during the<br />

recommended week of October 18-25. In other states other dates are being used<br />

because of unavoidable conflicts. In every state the schools are being actively<br />

promoted and planned.<br />

Brotherhood, Sunday school, Training Union, and Woman's Missionary Union<br />

are all joining in planning and promoting these church-wide schools.<br />

One state is planning to enrol at least 50,000. Another has set a goal of<br />

every church co-operating and at least 100,000 enrolled. State secretaries say:<br />

"The response has been even greater than our expectations," and "We believe<br />

we will have a School of Stewardship in every church in the state."<br />

Plans for Southern Baptist Advance in Stewardship, 1953 include the Schools<br />

of Stewardship, Budget Sunday (October 18 or earlier date), and Pledge Day<br />

(November 15 or nearest convenient Sunday).<br />

Cooperative Program Goal, 1954, $34 Million<br />

The Executive Committee adopted the recommendation of the Promotion<br />

Committee as follows:<br />

"That the Executive Committee recommend to the Convention the adoption<br />

of a 1954 goal of 34 million dollars for the Cooperative Program including<br />

all state and Southern Baptist Convention causes."<br />

The implementation of this recommendation will be by the actions of the state<br />

conventions as they set their Cooperative Program goals for 1954.<br />

Sunday School Enlargement Program<br />

The Executive Committee pledges fullest co-operation with the Sunday School<br />

Board and urges the co-operation of all our people in the Board's program of<br />

reaching one million additional people in Bible study in the year October 18,<br />

1953—September 30, 1954.<br />

Annual Christian Education Emphasis<br />

Study of possible emphases on Christian education was made by a special<br />

committee of the Promotion Joint Conference. Growing out of work by the<br />

committee and the Education Commission, a program of annual eight-day emphasis<br />

in the churches, to begin in April, 1954, was developed and approved.<br />

Included are plans for a college orientation course for high school students, a<br />

counseling workshop for adults interested in helping and advising young pe6ple,<br />

and a permanent college counseling committee in each church.


74 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

SECTION III: PUBLICATIONS<br />

The Division of Publications is primarily concerned with stewardship tracts,<br />

bulletins, posters, and mats. All the facilities of this division are available to<br />

both state and Southern Baptist Convention agencies.<br />

Baptist Bulletin Service<br />

Baptist Bulletin Service is owned by the Executive Committee. The editorial<br />

content and design of the bulletins are primarily our responsibility. Through an<br />

arrangement beginning January 1, 1949, production, advertising, and distribution<br />

of the bulletins is handled by the Sunday School Board. The Baptist Bulletin<br />

Service now serves over 4,800 churches each week. Aggregate circulation for<br />

1952 was 39,023,605. Average circulation in January, 1951, was 602,225; January,<br />

1952, was 775,475 weekly, a gain of 173,250.<br />

Correspondence regarding editorial policies and arrangement of the bulletin<br />

should be addressed to THE EDITORS, Baptist Bulletin Service, Southern Baptist<br />

Convention Executive Committee, 127 Ninth Avenue, North, Nashville 3, Tennessee.<br />

The Baptist Program<br />

The Baptist Program is a monthly publication mailed to all pastors, state<br />

workers, and other denominational leaders. Its present circulation is 25,000. It<br />

appeared ten times in 1952 with a total of 227 pages. The Baptist Program<br />

sponsors only ideas in harmony with the adopted programs and policies of the<br />

Southern Baptist Convention, its agencies, auxiliaries, and related conventions.<br />

Stewardship Tract Service<br />

The Stewardship Tract Service provides Southern Baptists with a selection of<br />

tracts on many phases of stewardship and the denomination's Cooperative Program.<br />

Our approximately 34 titles now stock 2,191,151. Circulation last year<br />

was 6,556,849, a gain of 1,754,978 over 1951.<br />

Stewardship tracts and posters should be ordered from the respective state<br />

headquarters.<br />

Baptist Press<br />

Baptist Press is the Executive Committee's outlet to religious and secular<br />

press, in co-operation with the state editors and state Baptist papers and publicity<br />

departments of the Southern Baptist Convention agencies and state conventions.<br />

This service gathers news of wide interest from the whole of Southern Baptist<br />

territory and distributes that news to religious and secular publishers throughout<br />

the nation.<br />

In 1952 Baptist Press distributed 199 legal-sized mimeographed pages, containing<br />

416 stories.<br />

Press Representation<br />

Press representation or coverage of the annual sessions of the Southern<br />

Baptist Convention is one of the year's major assignments. For the Convention<br />

meeting in Miami last year a total of 196 pages of advance material was prepared.<br />

Southern Baptist Convention Mat Service<br />

The Southern Baptist Convention Mat Service is another medium through<br />

which the Executive Committee seeks to aid the pastor's promotion of denominational<br />

activities. The service distributed 128 mats to 172 subscribers in 1952.<br />

.Inquiries concerning mats should be addressed to the Southern Baptist Convention<br />

Mat Service, 127 Ninth Avenue, North, Nashville 3, Tennessee.

ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTH <strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT<br />

FOREIGN MISSION BOARD<br />

M. THERON RANKIN, Executive Secretary<br />

The report of the Foreign Mission Board for 1952 is supposed to tell what<br />

has been done during this year in the 32 countries where the 879 missionaries<br />

of this Board are serving. But how can such a story be told? I have been looking<br />

through the reports which have come from the various missions around the<br />

world. In some of them, where mission work has been done for many years and<br />

where the churches and convention agencies have grown strong, the figures<br />

quoted tell an inspiring story. For instance in the report of the South Brazil<br />

Mission we find that 6,538 new church members were baptized during the year,<br />

giving the 706 churches in the mission a total of 80,281 members. The figures<br />

in reports of other missions are equally inspiring.<br />

But the figures in reports of areas where mission work has been conducted<br />

only a few years, if taken by themselves, would not be so inspiring. The Foreign<br />

Mission Board has missionaries serving in some 15 countries where the work is<br />

less than 10 years old—less than five years old in most of them. A statistical<br />

measurement of the achievements in these areas during the past year would not<br />

be particularly inspiring, but no one can read the reports of what has been done<br />

without breathing a prayer of thanks for the privilege of having had some little<br />

part in such achievements.<br />

The primary measurement of any foreign missionary effort is the extent to<br />

which this effort succeeds in developing indigenous Christian constituencies who<br />

themselves become the evangelizing agencies of their own peoples and their own<br />

nations. Ten thousand missionaries sent to Japan or Brazil or Nigeria could<br />

never by themselves evangelize any one of these countries. Their primary task is<br />

to develop indigenous churches which in time will have their own pastors and<br />

church leaders who have been trained in their own agencies and institutions to<br />

lead these churches in evangelizing the world.<br />

This is the objective of missionaries of the Foreign Mission Board wherever<br />

they go, whether to Nigeria, where our missionaries have served for over a<br />

hundred years, or to Indonesia, where they have served only one year. They seek<br />

to lead people to a personal faith in Christ Jesus as Lord and Saviour, to bring<br />

them together in churches for worship of God and service in his kingdom to<br />

teach and train them in stewardship and in co-operative service, and to aid them<br />

in developing their own schools and institutions for training their pastors and<br />

other church workers.<br />

The foreign missionary, therefore, is not primarily concerned about building<br />

up figures, just as Jesus in his purpose to save the whole world was not primarily<br />

concerned about the numbers of people that he himself led to God. He spent<br />

most of his ministry on earth preparing twelve people.<br />

Although the foreign missionary cannot be compared to Christ in his relation<br />

to God's plan of redemption for the world, it is true that his greatest hope for


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD 103<br />

? he .evangelization of the people to whom he goes as a foreign missionary is not<br />

m the numbers of people whom he himself may win but rather in the service he<br />

TG u- \Z S ^° ^ P develop a strong, well trained, indigenous Christian constituency<br />

which will become the primary evangelizing agency of the country where he<br />

serves.<br />

• ""^"j re P orts f r om the countries where our missionaries serve reveal what is<br />

being done to build up such evangelizing agencies. The figures in the reports from<br />

Malaya and Indonesia may be small, but the foundations being laid for the<br />

evangelization of Malaya and Indonesia are large. The objective of the missionary<br />

in the Philippine Islands and Brazil is the same as in all other countries<br />

where our missionaries serve.<br />

The figures of the combined reports from all fields are most encouraging.<br />

Baptisms on all fields totaled 18,154, and the combined membership of the 1,942<br />

churches is 195,067. The churches are served by 1,276 national pastors. There<br />

are 2,919 Sunday schools with enrolments totaling 205,901, and 4,949 other church<br />

organizations (Training Union, Missionary Societies, and Auxiliaries) have a<br />

combined enrolment of 143,391. Among the 460 schools conducted by the missions<br />

are 17 theological seminaries, which enrolled 563 of the 61,705 students in<br />

all the schools. Eight hospitals, 11 dispensaries, and seven clinics served<br />

71,245 patients. A total of 5,458,720 tracts were published on the mission fields.<br />

Mission orphanages care for 136 children. Nine Good Will Centers are maintained<br />

by missions.<br />

The Foreign Mission Board appointed 84 missionaries in 1952. The total income<br />

from the Cooperative Program, Lottie Moon Offering, and designated gifts<br />

amounted to $7,785,699.64. Approximately 94 per cent of this total was used for<br />

support of missionaries and work conducted abroad.<br />

As encouraging as these figures are, they can give only a small part of the<br />

report of 1952. For the full story, we commend a careful reading of all the reports<br />

which follow.<br />

Report on Africa, Europe and the Near East<br />

GEORGE W. SADLER, Secretary<br />

AFRICA<br />

Africa is the most varied and at the same time the most rapidly changing of<br />

all the continents. The entire area is in a state of ferment. The unrest is due<br />

to the fact that the peoples of the so-called "Dark Continent" have discovered<br />

their lot. They have found out that in some instances they are dispossessed and<br />

in others they are the victims of discrimination. Also, they have awakened to<br />

the realization that they are capable of ordering their own affairs.<br />

During recent years bur country has had a difficult role to play. Allied with<br />

Great Britain and France, it has not been easy for us to pursue a straight<br />

course relative to colonialism. Fundamentally and traditionally we are against<br />

it, but our allies are involved and we do not wish to lose their friendship.<br />

It happens that our missionaries are laboring in the parts of Africa where<br />

race relations are good. This is particularly true in Nigeria and the Gold Coast.<br />

In those two colonies the British are gradually handing over the reins of government<br />

to Africans.<br />

The condition mentioned above places a heavy burden of responsibility upon<br />

missionaries. In the first place, we are largely responsible for the ferment.<br />

It was we who taught them to read and made the Scriptures accessible. There<br />

they discovered that God is no respecter of persons, that he has made of one<br />

blood all nations of men, that there is no difference between Jew and Greek,<br />

and many other truths that led them to the conclusion that God had them in<br />

mind when he said "ye are the light of the world; ye are the salt of the earth."<br />

Not only is that true, but we are responsible for helping the Africans to become<br />

the kind of Christians who are characterized by such virtues as meekness,<br />

long-suffering, tolerance, forgiveness, and love. This we are attempting to do<br />

through our school system, our hospital work, and a direct evangelistic approach.<br />

Details of these approaches are given in the paragraphs which follow. Suffice<br />

it to say that the Board is grateful to God for the many evidences of his<br />

favor upon the efforts of its missionaries. Our regret is that the lack of funds<br />

limits our approach to peoples in many needy areas. One area, for example, of<br />

2,000,000 is entirely untouched by the good news of God's grace.


104 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

EUROPE<br />

There is evidence of the beginnings of spiritual awakening in Europe. Thos<br />

of us who were in that region last summer were impressed with the zeal oi<br />

brethren in several countries. Indeed there was little evidence of sloth or indifference.<br />

The comparatively small amounts that American and other Baptist<br />

friends have made available have been made to go a long way in Germany.<br />

Hundreds of residents of western Germany and many from the eastern sector<br />

have been provided with places of worship because the Germans have the<br />

capacity to make a little go a long way.<br />

In a recent communication from one of the professors at Ruschlikon there is<br />

"The Seminary continues to seek methods by which it can best serve the nee<br />

of European Baptists. Our regular course, in which there are some twentythree<br />

students, is fairly well set up now and is functioning satisfactorily. But<br />

we also have a large group of men who come to us for only one or two years.<br />

These are students who have completed work in their national seminaries or<br />

pastors who come on short leaves of absence for a refresher course. Their needs<br />

are quite different from those of the students taking the full course of study and<br />

our concern now is that we may also meet the special needs of this group of<br />

students. We are in process of setting up a curriculum for them which will<br />

be parallel to that we already have but aimed at the particular needs of this<br />

group."<br />

NEAR EAST<br />

Someone has said: "Communism feeds on misery. Democracy grows from<br />

hope." These two statements should challenge us—to dispel misery and to make<br />

hope reasonable. A few years ago, an Arab Christian told me that the Christians<br />

of that area could be likened to a man who had been caught between<br />

a door and a wall. Such a man was pressed on one side by Jews and on the<br />

other by Moslems. In his opinion, Christians ultimately would be liquidated. It<br />

is our business as Christians to do everything in our power to make the gospel<br />

of hope available to Jews and Moslems while we encourage those who fear<br />

liquidation.<br />

AFRICA<br />

CO-OPERATION CHARACTERIZES NIGERIAN MISSION<br />

Missionary P. H. Hill<br />

Southern Baptist missionaries have been at work in Nigeria for over a cen<br />

tury. Missionary W. M. Gilliland suggests that, historically, the work of Southern<br />

Baptist missions has fallen into three periods. The first period may be<br />

called the period of beginnings—when missionaries came to introduce the eosjoel


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD<br />

JP+^ 1St to those who had never heard it before. Except in isolated instances,<br />

and there are some, this period, which extends roughly from 1850 to 1920, is<br />

over. The second period of Baptist development is the period of establishing<br />

training institutions. Mission leaders have long realized that an adequate program<br />

for training national personnel is essential to the development of the<br />

national Baptist constituency, and the Nigerian Mission has provided an educational<br />

program for Christian ministers, teachers, medical workers, and others.<br />

Missionaries in Nigeria today are largely occupied with this training program.<br />

The Nigerian Baptist Convention was organized during this second period. It<br />

is, in fact, a part of the training program. Today, we are in the third period,<br />

the period of co-operation between the Nigerian Baptist Convention and the<br />

American Baptist Mission (Nigerian Mission). We believe that the greatest<br />

contribution we can make is to train as many Nigerian Baptist leaders as we<br />

can and strengthen the existing churches. This we are seeking to do.<br />

Ibadan<br />

Ibadan is a Mohammedan stronghold. Ninety per cent of the nearly half a<br />

million inhabitants of this sprawling city are said to be followers of "the prophet<br />

of Medina." The city—the largest all-native city in Africa—is growing in importance<br />

as a governmental, commercial, and educational center. There had been<br />

little Southern Baptist witness there until the establishment of the headquarters<br />

of the Nigerian Baptist Mission in Ibadan in 1948.<br />

Dr. I. N. Patterson, secretary-treasurer of the Mission, has his home on the<br />

headquarters compound in Ibadan. Dr. V. L. Seats is acting secretary-treasurer<br />

while Dr. Patterson is on furlough. The secretary-treasurer has a dual role. He<br />

directs the activities of about 150 missionaries, handling over half a million dollars<br />

of mission funds annually, and he is also general secretary of the Nigerian<br />

Baptist Convention with its 283 churches and more than 30,000 church members.<br />

Miss Ethel Harmon, secretary of the Sunday school department, also has her<br />

home and office on the headquarters compound in Ibadan. "While camping in a<br />

little village one evening, too weary to do anything but sit and watch the night<br />

life of the village people," relates Miss Harmon, "I had two candles burning in<br />

the little room prepared by the people for the missionary. Not long after darkness<br />

made its appearance, an old, old lady came to the door. After giving her<br />

salutations, she looked at the two burning candles and said, 'You have two<br />

lights, but I have none.' She went away carrying one of the missionary's<br />

lighted candles, and a truth went deeper into the heart of the missionary:<br />

'You have light; I have none.'" With the help of two full-time African assistants,<br />

Miss Harmon is seeking earnestly to share the "light" of God's Word with<br />

the Nigerian people through her Sunday school work. "Thousands of people in<br />

Nigeria and in the Gold Coast," she says, "are daily Bible readers who follow<br />

the home Daily Bible Readings on the Sunday school lessons. More of our<br />

people are learning the value of lesson helps, and Sunday schools are taking a<br />

greater place in the churches."<br />

The Vacation Bible schools sponsored by the Sunday school department have<br />

been one of the greatest means of giving others the "light" of God's Word. A<br />

Nigerian Vacation Bible school bears little resemblance to its American counterpart.<br />

They are held for children and adults alike, consist of periods of Bible<br />

study, singing, and preaching, and usually last for one week. Many Bible schools<br />

develop into genuine revivals. During the July-August school holidays this year,<br />

50 young men (high-school, college, and seminary students) held 85 Bible<br />

schools which resulted in 1,190 professions of faith in Christ. Many missionaries<br />

and pastors feel that the Bible school is the most effective evangelistic<br />

agency we possess. The presence of 426 Sunday schools with a combined enrolment<br />

of over 31,000 bears eloquent testimony of the untiring efforts of Miss<br />

Harmon and the Nigerian pastors.<br />

Nigerian government expects to begin free, compulsory, education by 1955.<br />

Government schools, however, will not likely supersede mission schools ior<br />

many years.<br />

Begun a little more than a year ago, the Baptist Press has amply demonstrated<br />

its usefulness by the large volume of religious literature which it has<br />

published. Among the jobs printed were Sunday school, Training Union, and<br />

Woman's Missionary Union literature, tracts, church and associational programs,<br />

school diplomas, tithing card, Nigerian Baptist Convention annual, and miscellaneous<br />

stationery and forms for schools, churches, and hospitals. Much of<br />

this material is printed in Yoruba. The Nigerian Baptist, a bi-lingual monthly<br />

magazine published by the Nigerian Baptist Convention, is printed by the<br />

Baptist Press. Its monthly circulation is around 1,500 copies. Missionary W. H.<br />

Carson is the editor. Rev. C. F. Eaglesfield, manager of the Press, is on furlough.<br />

During his absence the work is being directed by Dr. V. L. Seats.<br />

The contract has been let and construction begun on a new Baptist Building<br />

which is to be located in the downtown area of Ibadan. It will house a Baptist<br />

book store and library to be managed by Rev. and Mrs. H. A. Brown, a youth<br />

center for African young people, a dental clinic to be operated by Dr. W. Wayne<br />

Logan, and offices for some of the Convention and Mission personnel.<br />

Lagos<br />

Lagos is another key city in the work of the Nigerian Mission. A thriving<br />

city of 272,000 and the principal port of entry into Nigeria, Lagos presents a<br />

picture of violent contrasts: modern department stores, electricity, running<br />

water, paved streets, theaters, beautiful homes, and churches contrasting vividly<br />

with slum areas where teeming thousands live in squalor and abject poverty,<br />

maimed beggars on every hand, pagan worship, and filthy market places. Lagos<br />

is seething with the nationalistic ferment which is working so vigorously in<br />

Nigeria today. However, it is a city of opportunity for our Mission because its<br />

population is composed of people from every tribe and area of Nigeria. Baptists<br />

have several strong churches there. Rev. J. T. Ayorinde, president of the<br />

Nigerian Baptist Convention, is pastor of the largest, the First Baptist Church.<br />

Baptist Academy<br />

The Baptist Academy, a high school for boys, is located in downtown Lagos,<br />

with Rev. L. G. Lane serving as principal. Rev. and Mrs. W. A. Poe are also<br />

members of the faculty, and Mrs. Poe is acting hostess of the Baptist Hostel in<br />

the absence of Miss Vivian Nowell, who is on leave. Rev. J. E. Mills, former<br />

principal of the academy, conducted revival services in the school in July.<br />

Thirty students, some of whom were Mohammedans, made public professions of<br />

faith in Christ. Twenty others expressed their desire to enter full-time religious<br />

service. Young men such as these are the hope of the future of Baptist work<br />

in Nigeria.<br />

Reagan Memorial Girls' School<br />

Misses Cora Ney Hardy and Ethel Guest constitute the missionary staff of<br />

Reagan Memorial Baptist Girls' School, located on the outskirts of Lagos. Present<br />

enrolment is approximately 225 pupils in primary and secondary school classes.<br />

Radio Evangelism<br />

Dr. W. H. Carson is director of radio evangelism for our Mission. Largely<br />

through his efforts, Baptists now have regular programs over the Lagos station<br />

of the Nigerian Broadcasting Service. These programs find their way into<br />

thousands of homes through the medium of the radio re-diffusion service, which<br />

consists of small loudspeakers installed in homes by the Broadcasting Service for<br />

a small monthly fee. No doubt, many people are hearing gospel messages for the<br />

first time through this avenue of communication.<br />

Ijebu-lfe<br />

When Dr. Charles E. Maddry, then Secretary of the Foreign Mission Board,<br />

visited Nigeria in 1937, he promised the Ijebu Baptist Association a missionary<br />

couple. This year the Board redeemed his promise when Rev. and Mrs. J. E.<br />

Mills became the first Southern Baptist missionaries to work and live among the<br />

Ijebu people. Mr. Mills has spent much of his time this year trying to reorganize<br />

and strengthen existing Baptist churches.


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD 107<br />

In addition to his associational duties, Mr. Mills has devoted much time to the<br />

Nigerian Baptist evangelism committee, of which he is chairman. Emphasis<br />

for the year has been on personal soul-winning, and the missionary prepared a<br />

booklet, "A Handbook For Soul-Winners," to be used as a guide. The book has<br />

been taught to the leaders of churches in many associations during special conferences.<br />

The afternoons of the conferences have been given to actual visitation<br />

and soul-winning.<br />

Abeokuta<br />

Abeokuta, a city of 65,000 people, is the site of Southern Baptists' first<br />

mission station in Nigeria. Rev. W. O. Harper is missionary adviser for the<br />

Abeokuta and Oke-Ogun associations, in addition to his work in the Baptist Boys'<br />

High School. Although there are 30 churches and preaching stations in<br />

Abeokuta Association, we have only three seminary-trained pastors working<br />

among them. How great is the need for consecrated, well-trained young men<br />

to fill the pulpits of these and many other churches in Nigeria!<br />

Baptist Boys' High School<br />

The 289 boys enrolled in the Baptist Boys' High School of Abeokuta come from<br />

all parts of Nigeria and the Gold Coast. Most of them are from Baptist homes;<br />

twenty-five, however, come from Moslem homes. The staff consists of ten African<br />

teachers and two missionaries. An outstanding event of the school year was the<br />

Religious Emphasis Week when 247 students made public decisions for Christ;<br />

43 made professions of faith in Christ, 56 dedicated themselves for special<br />

Christian service, 113 rededicated their lives to Christ, and 35 were baptized<br />

after a long period of intense training in the meaning of church membership.<br />

These consecrated young men will be a blessing to the work of Nigerian Baptists.<br />

Idi-Aba<br />

Situated across town from the Boys' High School is the Baptist Girls' School<br />

better known to Southern Baptists as Idi-Aba. It is really three schools in one,<br />

for it is made up of an elementary school (for practice teaching), an elementary<br />

teacher training school, and a higher elementary training center. At present<br />

Idi-Aba is the only Baptist teacher-training institution for girls in Nigeria, and<br />

a girl is considered very fortunate to be admitted as a student. "Every week is<br />

'religious emphasis' week at Idi-Aba," says Miss May Perry, the principal, "with<br />

students conducting daily chapel services and weekly prayer meetings. Twentyfour<br />

students go out each Sunday to conduct services in 12 villages and one leper<br />

settlement, while others lead Girls' Auxiliary groups." The combined enrolment<br />

of the three schools is 357. Other missionaries on the staff include Misses Susan<br />

Anderson (author of So This Is Africa), Florence Lide and Doris Knight<br />

(refugees from the China Baptist Mission), Elizabeth Truly, Ernelle Brooks,<br />

and Jean Bach.<br />

Oyo<br />

Oyo Association, one of the oldest and strongest in the Nigerian Baptist<br />

Convention, has been under the direction of Rev. J. C. Powell for many years.<br />

Rev. C. F. Roberson is missionary adviser while the Powells are on furlough.<br />

Oyo Baptist Boys' High School<br />

The Oyo Baptist Boys' High School, which was begun in 1944, is making<br />

excellent progress under the principalship of Mr. M. L. Garrett. Mrs. Garrett,<br />

the former Miss Mary-Ellen Wooten, is also a member of the faculty. The<br />

present enrolment of the school is 175 students.<br />

Shaki<br />

Shaki Baptist Association this year celebrated its Golden Jubilee. Fifty ye<br />

ago the first Baptist missionaries came to Shaki. Rev. J. W. Richardson is the<br />

missionary adviser for the association. When the Richardsons left for America<br />

in June, Rev. A. G. Dunaway assumed responsibility for the work.<br />

Elam Memorial Girls' School<br />

Miss Margaret Marchman is principal of the Elam Memorial Girls' School.<br />

She is assisted by Misses Carol Leigh Humphries and Bettye Jane Ewen. Miss<br />

Ewen is acting principal while Miss Marchman is on leave.


1Q 8 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Shaki Baptist Hospital<br />

January 5, 1952, was an eventful day in the lives of the people of Shaki,<br />

on that day the Shaki Baptist Hospital was dedicated. The new building is the<br />

realization of the dreams and plans of Dr. Margaret Richardson and Nurses<br />

Amanda Tinkle and Frances Hammett. Since the nearest hospital is one<br />

hundred miles from Shaki, unlimited possibilities for service are open to the<br />

hospital. The new buildings were occupied May 7. Dr. J. E. Walker relieved<br />

Dr. Richardson when she returned to America on furlough.<br />

Okuta<br />

Okuta, a little village 40 miles north of Shaki, is peopled by members of<br />

Ibariba tribe. When Rev. and Mrs. A. G. Dunnaway opened a clinic in Okuta in<br />

1948, it was the first mission work by any denomination among these people.<br />

The first Baptist church among the Ibaribas was organized November 17, 1952.<br />

A school was been started and is being operated by Miss Hattie Gardner. Rev.<br />

A. G. Dunaway is missionary adviser for the Okuta area.<br />

Ogbomosho<br />

Baptist Hospital<br />

Medical missions in Nigeria began in 1907 when Dr. George Green arrived in<br />

Ogbomosho. In 1923, he built the present hospital building. From this early<br />

medical work, four other medical institutions have arisen in the city. "In caring<br />

for the 6,369 out-patients and the 1,795 in-patients in our hospital during this<br />

past year," writes Miss Antonina Canzoneri, acting head of the nursing school,<br />

"we have experienced joy and sorrow, tragedy and disappointment, encouragement<br />

and hope. We have seen the terrible results of neglect—tiny ulcers, which<br />

could have been easily cured, left until the patient had to lose an arm or a leg—<br />

and we have seen the dreadful results of the use of native medicine. Always<br />

there is the joy and encouragement of patients going home well and strong<br />

physically, and of numbers of them going away with something they never had<br />

before—a new life in Christ."<br />

Mrs. B. E. Cockrum, Jr., and Mrs. J. E. Low, with the help of seminary<br />

students and student nurses, have been conducting daily services on the wards.<br />

Many conversions have resulted. One such convert was Mariama. Riding one<br />

day on a lorry, Mariama was robbed and thrown from the moving lorry. She<br />

was admitted to the hospital with serious injuries which resulted in the<br />

paralysis of her legs. Shortly after her admission to the hospital she was<br />

converted, and during the two and one-half years she has been lying bedfast<br />

in her ward, she has witnessed to those about her. No less than 50 women have<br />

been led to Christ through her efforts. Just a few weeks ago a miracle occurred:<br />

Mariama started walking! She, the doctors, and the nurses are convinced<br />

that it was in answer to prayer. Now, she is attending the women's<br />

classes at the Seminary where she is learning to read, studying the Bible, and<br />

learning W.M.U. work. She is doing well in her classes, and we feel that she is<br />

going to be a great asset in our women's work.<br />

Dr. W. J. Williams is hospital superintendent. Dr. J. E. Low has been serving<br />

as superintendent during the furlough of Dr. Williams. Dr. Martha Gilliland<br />

divides her time between the hospital and the nursing home for missionaries.<br />

Missionary nurses who work in the hospital are: Miss Antonina Canzoneri, Miss<br />

Ruth Womack, Miss Alice Miller, Mrs. W. L. Jester, and Mrs. Ruth Rumpho'l.<br />

Nursing School<br />

The Nursing School is of vital importance to our mission medical program, for<br />

in it are trained all of the African nurses who serve in Baptist hospitals and<br />

clinics throughout Nigeria. The 1952 enrolment was 60 students,_ most of them<br />

young men. Young women are only gradually entering the nursing profession.<br />

This year the school was given a home of its own. An old seminary dormitory<br />

was renovated and divided into classrooms, library, and dormitory rooms. The<br />

nursing school is naturally quite closely associated with the hospital. Missionary<br />

nurses teach most of the classes and supervise the training of the student nurses<br />

in the hospital wards. Mrs. W. J. Williams is director of the nursing school.<br />

Kersey Children's Home<br />

At the 1952 Mission meeting the name of the Ogbomosho Home for Motherless<br />

Children was changed to the "Kersey Children s Home, m honor of Miss


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD 109<br />

Ruth Kersey, its founder. Miss Helen Masters has the responsibility of the<br />

Home while Miss Kersey is on furlough. Babies are brought to the Home when<br />

their mothers have died in childbirth or soon afterward. About 40 babies are m<br />

its care most of the time. Many of them are sick or dying when they are<br />

admitted, and despite the best of medical care, approximately 50 per cent of<br />

them die each year. The practice of the Children's Home is to return the<br />

children who survive to their own homes as soon as it is practicable. Rev. B. E.<br />

Cockrum, Jr., the Mission builder, is completing the construction of a new building<br />

for the Home on a new site located about a mile outside of Ogbomosho. The<br />

Nigerian Baptist Convention is looking for a consecrated African couple to live<br />

in the Home and be foster parents for the children.<br />

Frances Jones Memorial Nursing Home<br />

The Frances Jones Nursing Home is a great blessing to missionaries in need<br />

of medical attention. It is in almost constant use by the members of our Mission.<br />

Dr. Martha Gilliland is the missionaries' "family" physician; Miss Emma Watts<br />

is the nurse in charge of the Nursing Home.<br />

Leper Colony<br />

Dr. R. F. Goldie, superintendent of Baptist leper work, reports 785 lepers<br />

living in the Ogbomosho Baptist Leper Colony in 1952. There are 509 patients in<br />

11 smaller "clan" settlements scattered throughout Oyo Province. Many of the<br />

patients are being treated with the new sulfone drugs instead of the hydnocarpus<br />

oil which has been the standard treatment for leprosy in the past. The new<br />

drug often cuts down the length of treatment from ten years to two. The<br />

leper colony has long needed a small hospital to care for the patients who become<br />

ill. A ten-bed hospital is nearing completion at this time. The Water<br />

situation—always a problem in Africa—was greatly improved this year by the<br />

construction of a dam and a two-million-gallon reservoir to store up rain water.<br />

Dr. J. C. Abell, Jr., acting superintendent, has supervised the construction of<br />

both projects. Forty-five lepers were discharged from the colony during 1952.<br />

The leper colony and clan settlements are separate, self-contained communities<br />

centered around Christian schools and churches. In a recent evangelistic meeting<br />

in the Ogbomosho colony, an average of 435 patients attended the services and<br />

75 made professions of faith in Christ. Dr. Goldie conducts religious services<br />

in the outlying settlements as he makes "his monthly visits. Plans are under way<br />

to secure a full-time, seminary-trained chaplain to minister to the spiritual needs<br />

of the patients in these settlements.<br />

Theological Seminary<br />

Two young Nigerian pastors received the Th.B. degree, and 17 others received<br />

certificates in theology, at the Seminary graduation exercises held in Ogbomosho<br />

on December 2, 1952. The enrolment for the 1952 session was 71 men and 30<br />

women (students' wives). The architect has completed the plans for a new<br />

$120,000 administration-classroom building, and Mr. Cockrum has already begun<br />

construction. The building will house classrooms, administrative offices, professors'<br />

offices, chapel, and library. The project will require approximately 18<br />

months to complete, after which the seminary should be able to accommodate<br />

at least 300 students. One of the most critical needs of Nigerian Baptists today<br />

is an adequate supply of thoroughly trained, consecrated young ministers of the<br />

gospel. The men who go forth from this institution will do much to determine<br />

the future progress of the kingdom of God in Africa.<br />

The seminary faculty is composed of four African tutors and the following<br />

missionaries: Dr. J. C. Pool, principal, Dr. W. L. Jester, registrar, Dr. P. H.<br />

Hill, librarian, Dr. V. L. Seats (temporarily in Ibadan), Rev. W. M. Gilliland,<br />

and Rev. R. L. West. Many students from the seminary participated in a<br />

simultaneous revival in the Ogbomosho Association in November. Forty-three<br />

churches and out-stations reported a total of 1,550 conversions, 90 of whom were<br />

Moslems.<br />

Ede<br />

Woman's Missionary Union<br />

"Everyone rejoices," writes Miss Mary Ellen Yancey, assistant W.M.U. director,<br />

"when something dreamed of, prayed and worked for, becomes a reality.<br />

On April 18, 1952, the W.M.U. camp building at Ede was dedicated and opened.<br />

It is called "Camp Young" in honor of Miss Neale C. Young, who has directed<br />

Woman's Missionary Union activities in the Nigerian Baptist Convention since


HO 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

1922. For several years the W.M.U. set aside $500 annually toward the erection<br />

of a chapel at the camp. Later, when it was decided that two separate buildings<br />

could not be erected at that time, the chapel was made a part of the camp<br />

building. We are indeed grateful for the lovely building, which includes six<br />

spacious bedrooms, three store rooms, an open court, and the beautiful chapel.<br />

The plant is not complete, but we rejoice that we now have the mam building<br />

ready for use. We are grateful for the interest and financial help of the<br />

Nigerian and Gold Coast women and young people; however, we know that the<br />

main part of the financial need was met by the Southern Baptist W.M.U. of<br />

America. To each of you who had a part in this we express our heartfelt thanks.<br />

Camps and houseparties for W.M.U. organizations afforded many opportunities<br />

for spiritual growth. This year, in addition to the annual G.A. Camp, a<br />

camp for Y. W.A.'s and a houseparty for Lydias (B.W.C.) were held at Camp<br />

Young.<br />

During the annual W.M.U. Convention in Ogbomosho in April, the women<br />

voted to set aside $980 to send Rev. and Mrs. J. T. Ayorinde to Southern<br />

Rhodesia. The missionaries and Baptist people of Southern Rhodesia had extended<br />

them a cordial invitation to come in the interest of W.M.U. work (Mrs.<br />

Ayorinde is president of the Nigerian W.M.U.) and for revival services. The<br />

trip was a great blessing to the Ayorindes and to the Nigerian W.M.U. We<br />

hope that in the future the Nigerian Baptist Convention and W.M.U. will be<br />

able to render the people of Southern Rhodesia further help.<br />

The W.M.U. is one of the most active agencies of the Nigerian Baptist Convention.<br />

It reported 702 missionary societies in 1952, with a total of 15,328<br />

members; 500 auxiliaries had 11,451 members.<br />

Elementary Training Center<br />

The Baptist Elemenary Training Center in Ede, with Mr. W. E. Okode as<br />

principal, had approximately 50 students enrolled for the 1952 session. The<br />

pupils, who are Standard VI graduates (approximately 8th grade), are given a<br />

two-year teacher-training course, after which they are sent out as teachers for<br />

Baptist day schools. Biblical and doctrinal teaching are included, as many of<br />

the teachers will serve as pastors.<br />

Iwo<br />

Training Union Department<br />

Pastor J. O. Bamikole, B.T.U. field worker for the Nigerian Baptist Convention,<br />

has directed the work of the Training Union during the furlough of Rev.<br />

W. N. Claxon. During the year about one thousand certificates of award have<br />

been earned for study courses completed—most of them in methods. There.were<br />

145 Training Unions in the Nigerian Baptist Convention (including those in<br />

the Gold Coast) in 1952, with a total of nearly 7,000 members. "We are seeking<br />

to develop strong leaders in our churches," says Mr. Claxon, "and to create in<br />

young people a sense of the divine call to the ministry and to Christian service."<br />

Baptist College<br />

The principal undertaking of missionaries in Iwo is the Baptist College, a<br />

secondary school offering teacher training to Baptist young men. There are 100<br />

students in the school this year under the principalship of Rev. C. F. Whirley.<br />

Although they are being trained as teachers, many of these young men will be<br />

asked to serve as pastors of the local Baptist churches in the villages where they<br />

are teaching. Accordingly, evangelism is strongly stressed in the school. This<br />

year 60 students went out every Sunday afternoon holding street-preaching services<br />

in strongly Mohammedan Iwo. The following missionaries are on the staff<br />

of the Baptist College: Misses Lena Lair, Edythe Montroy, Hazel Moon, Alma<br />

Rohm, and Estelle Davis, Rev. and Mrs. D. N. Mayhall, Rev. and Mrs. W. H.<br />

Congdon, and Rev. and Mrs. C. F. Whirley.<br />

Ire<br />

Welfare Center<br />

The Baptist Welfare Center in Ire is one of our busiest medical centers.<br />

Conducted by Miss Eva Sanders with the help of Miss Edith Chaney, Miss Estelle<br />

Davis and an African staff, the Center treated more than 9,000 patients in 1952.<br />

Since'the center usually has around 600 deliveries annually, a school for the


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD<br />

training of midwives was established in Ire. The graduates of the school are<br />

placed in Baptist hospitals and clinics throughout Nigeria.<br />

TT° new buildi ngs were completed this year, the Blanche Sydnor White and<br />

the Hannah Reynolds buildings. Telephones have been installed between the<br />

buildings on the compound, a new electric generator is being purchased, and<br />

plumbing fixtures for the center have arrived.<br />

"There are many unsaved," relates Miss Sanders, "who hear the gospel in the<br />

seven to ten daily worship services here. The majority of our patients are from<br />

Mohammedan homes and they are very hard to win. For instance, a young<br />

woman has been here for six months and has learned a new Bible verse each<br />

week of that time. We have talked to her individually, she has been in at least<br />

two services a day, she has seen a miracle performed in the fact that she is<br />

living in spite of a severe illness, and her three-pound baby now weighs more<br />

than six pounds; yet, when she left here last week she had not publicly accepted<br />

Christ. We have one consolation, and that is that God's Word does not<br />

return void. I still believe she will become a Christian as a result of the many<br />

prayers offered by the students and even the laborers on our compound.<br />

"Our hardest task is effective follow-up work. Our more than 9,000 patients<br />

come from 85 scattered towns, some of which we have never located. Some of the<br />

patients we have visited have been difficult to find because of the similarity in<br />

their names and the many ramifications of their compounds. We are grateful<br />

that the fruit-bearing is in God's hands, and just pray that we may be molded<br />

in God's hand to do his bidding."<br />

Bethel Baptist Association<br />

In addition to her many other duties, Miss Sanders is missionary adviser for<br />

the Bethel Baptist Association, which is composed of 21 churches. There are 28<br />

Baptist day schools attached to these churches. Concerning the work of the<br />

association, Miss Sanders writes: "This year our simultaneous revival held in<br />

February was the highlight of the early part of the year and the conference on<br />

personal evangelism in October was the highlight of the latter part of the year.<br />

Many of our young people have become Christians, and this has been a year when<br />

they have stressed endeavor to win their parents to Christ. Last week an old<br />

mother was won, and the joy exhibited by the younger generation was most<br />

touching. The practice of having candidates attend Bible-study classes over a<br />

period of months, while their character is being watched, and the passing of<br />

examinations before baptism, continues. The juju belief is so strong in some<br />

that there is fear that if one is not truly converted he might request baptism<br />

as another juju added to his heathen rites. After our revivals in February the<br />

converts were put in Bible classes, and in October examinations were held.<br />

Fifty-six passed and were baptized."<br />

Igede<br />

The missionary adviser of the Igede district, Rev. J. S. McGee, is engaged i<br />

direct evangelism. There is no mission or Convention-sponsored institution in<br />

that area. His duty consists of organizing preaching stations and churches,<br />

holding training classes for new converts—and sometimes for untrained pastors<br />

who are unable to go to the seminary—supervising the construction of church<br />

and school buildings, and preaching to people Avho perhaps have never heard<br />

about Christ. This type of work is conducted from each of our mission stations,<br />

but many of the stations are more fully developed and do not cover such a large<br />

area as the Igede district. In this district there are 51 churches and preaching<br />

stations scattered over three associations within a 75-mile radius. Travel conditions<br />

being what they are, this is entirely too large an area for one man to<br />

cover efficiently. Rev. and Mrs. D. L. Saunders have been caring for the Igede<br />

district while the McGees are on furlough. Mrs. Saunders, a registered nurse,<br />

is operating the Igede dispensary this year. One of the doctors from the<br />

Ogbomosho hospital makes periodic visits to the dispensary to help with the<br />

difficult cases.<br />

Benin City<br />

"Opportunity," writes Rev. E. M. Howell, missionary adviser of Benin and<br />

Warri provinces, "is the thing one is most impressed with in looking over the<br />

past year's work in Benin Province. One may drive along in a car, or he may<br />

travel on a bicycle into places where a car cannot reach, and he will see village<br />

111


112 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

after village where no church of any denomination can be found. Benin City itself<br />

is a very large city which should have four Baptist churches instead oi one.<br />

Perhaps there is no city in Nigeria which so publicly displays its many idols.<br />

On almost one-half of the doorposts of the city one can see the blood of goats<br />

and chickens which is spilt on the idol which protects the entrance into the<br />

house. A missionary couple who will give sacrifically of their time to the developing<br />

of the churches in the province and to the opening of other mission<br />

churches is the urgent need."<br />

"Progress" is the word used by Missionary Howell to describe Baptist work<br />

in Warri Province. Churches are growing and new buildings are being erected.<br />

"There is still much to be done," says the missionary, "and the surface is just<br />

being scratched, but we are now beginning to see the fruits of many years' labor<br />

by Africans and missionaries. This gives us renewed courage to press forward<br />

for Christ now as 'advisers' helping the African pastors and teachers who are<br />

taking up the responsibilities of building a new and better Christian Africa."<br />

Eku<br />

Baptist Hospital<br />

Baptists first began medical work in Eku with a small dispensary in the<br />

village, prior to the opening of our present modern 84-bed hospital on the edge<br />

of town. This hospital was begun in 1946 by Dr. H. B. Canning and completed<br />

by Dr. W. C. Gaventa. In 1950, Dr. P. S. Cullen joined Dr. Gaventa in this<br />

enterprise. They have been assisted in the medical work by three missionary<br />

nurses, Mrs. E. M. Howell, who pioneered in the work, and Misses Mary Evelyn<br />

Fredenberg and Mary Frances Page.<br />

The hospital plant consists of eight major and ten minor buildings. With<br />

the exception of one of the wards, which at the present time serves as livingquarters<br />

for some of the missionaries, all of the major buildings and eight of the<br />

smaller ones are being used by the hospital. There are 50 beds open, exclusive<br />

of the bassinets in the maternity ward. These beds are nearly always full of<br />

medical, surgical, and maternity cases. There are also large out-patient clinics<br />

three times weekly, besides maternity and well-baby clinics, each held twice a<br />

week.<br />

The patients are ministered to spiritually as well as physically. The African<br />

chaplain, Pastor Alex Udjor, preaches to the out-patients and in-patients, holds<br />

chapel services for the hospital workers, and does much personal and follow-up<br />

work. There were 180 professions of faith from January through October, as a<br />

direct result of his labor. Miss Page and Miss Fredenberg organized a Y.W.A.<br />

circle, called "Lydias" (B.W.C.), among the girls on the staff, and this group<br />

sponsors a Sunday school for the in-patients. In this way the people who are<br />

too sick to attend Sunday school have the lessons brought to them at the hospital<br />

on Sunday mornings. The missionary nurses also work with W.M.U. organizations<br />

in the out-stations. In October, Dr. P. S. Cullen baptized almost 100 converts<br />

at the annual baptismal service of the Urhobo Association.<br />

The Lord has blessed this medical-evangelistic work, but there is still much to<br />

be done to win them to Christ. Many come to the hospital for help only after<br />

treatment from juju doctors, and some of them are already beyond hope because<br />

of the administration of native medicine. Others, whom the missionaries would<br />

like to help, are taken home too early because their people fear they will die in<br />

the hospital rather than in their homes. The Eku Baptist Hospital is set up to<br />

introduce these people to the Great Physician, thereby saving many lives and<br />

precious souls.<br />

Agbor<br />

Outstanding among the year's events at the Agbor Girls' High School was<br />

the religious emphasis week under the leadership of Rev. J. T. Ayorinde. Concerning<br />

this week Missionary Mildred Crabtree, principal of the school, writes:<br />

"The missionaries at Agbor have experienced real joy, as students in the Baptist<br />

Girls' High School have accepted Christ as Saviour and as older Christians<br />

have grown spiritually through the year. Students with concern for people in<br />

their own homes and communities are preparing themselves to serve their people<br />

as W.M.U. workers, teachers, nurses, and Christian mothers. During the<br />

revival Mr. Ayorinde gave generously of himself to the Agbor church and to<br />

village mission points nearby. There are no schools in these villages and<br />

consequently, no Christian leaders. The people are illiterate. Teachers from the


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD 113<br />

Agbor Baptist Day School and the Agbor pastor help them when they can.<br />

nS? aFe . des P er ately needed for the villages."<br />

Uther missionaries on the staff are Misses Stella Austin and Marjorie<br />

Stephens.<br />

Joinkrama<br />

Joinkrama, the center of Baptist work in the eastern river section of<br />

x<br />

-f under the supervision of Missionary F. K. Edwards. He writes that many of<br />

the churches in that area are beginning the construction of permanent church<br />

buildings. Miss Josephine Scaggs conducts a Bible school for the pastors. Upon<br />

completion of their course, some of her students will have the privilege of attending<br />

the seminary in Ogbomosho; others will continue to lead the churches<br />

with the training they receive in the Bible school. Many of the finest students<br />

in the seminary are graduates of this Bible school.<br />

Joinkrama Hospital<br />

The new buildings of the Joinkrama Baptist Hospital have been practic<br />

completed. The staff is rejoicing in the addition of three new missionaries:<br />

Miss Aletha Fuller and Dr. and Mrs. Walter Moore. Hospital records indicate<br />

that 2,500 patients received a total of 15,000 treatments during 1952. Child welfare<br />

has been emphasized by the hospital this year, and there has been a good<br />

increase in pediatric and pre-natal clinics. The chief problem continues to be<br />

the use of juju and native medicine which are used in addition to the facilities<br />

of the hospital. Many people still fear to keep twins; such children, as well as<br />

motherless babies, are still brought to the hospital until they can be placed in<br />

homes that will care for them.<br />

Port Harcourt<br />

Port Harcourt Baptist High School, one of our newer secondary schools<br />

making excellent progress. The enrolment for 1952 was 255 students. One new<br />

building (handicraft) is under construction, and plans are being made for the<br />

erection of a chapel and a dormitory.<br />

During the religious emphasis week this year many students accepted Christ,<br />

and 12 young men dedicated their lives to full-time Christian service. Missionary<br />

W. R. Davis is the principal of the High School, Rev. J. B. Durham is the missionary<br />

adviser of the Port Harcourt mission station.<br />

Northern Nigeria<br />

Southern Baptist mission endeavor during the past century has almost<br />

pletely ignored the 12 provinces and 14 million people of northern Nigeria. Mission<br />

work in that area is among two groups, the Yorubas who migrated northward<br />

and the native northern tribes—Hausas, Fulani, and others. There are<br />

60 churches and preaching stations in the north, 25 of them composed of northerners<br />

only. We have Yoruba churches in all the large cities. Some of them<br />

have services each Sunday in both Yoruba and Hausa. The Moslem attitude<br />

toward Christianity is difficult to define. At times there is direct opposition,<br />

and again there may be a kind of passive tolerance. All emirs and other rulers<br />

sternly oppose the advance of Christianity into Moslem areas, and the Nigerian<br />

Government respects their wishes in the matter. There is no real religious<br />

liberty in northern Nigeria. Winning Mohammedans to Christ takes years<br />

of constant witnessing. Medical missions seems to be the most effective way in<br />

which to reach their hearts. The Mission is hoping to locate a doctor in one of<br />

the large northern cities before long.<br />

Kaduna is the present mission headquarters in northern Nigeria. Rev. and<br />

Mrs. F. E. Runyan and Miss Bonnie Moore are our only missionaries serving an<br />

area twice as large as the area in which all our other Nigeria missionaries are<br />

working. A new mission house is nearing completion at Keffi, and Rev. and Mrs.<br />

W. J. Fergeson are to work there upon its completion.<br />

Gold Coast<br />

Nigeria's Yoruba people are inveterate traders. They may be found tra<br />

in most of the countries on the coast of West Africa. Baptist mission work in<br />

tinued the Gold to worship Coast owes Christ its existence even though to they some were of these living Yoruba in a "foreign" Baptists land. who con­ As


114 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

early as 1934 a group of Yorubas in the Gold Coast applied to the government<br />

for a plot of land on which to build a Baptist church. Today there are 42<br />

churches scattered over an area 500 miles long and 250 miles wide. These<br />

churches and their associations are members of the Nigerian Baptist Convention.<br />

Two missionary couples are located in the Gold Coast, Rev. and Mrs. H. R.<br />

Littleton and Rev. and Mrs. Q. P. Morgan. Rev. and Mrs. W. H. McGinnis were<br />

transferred from Nigeria to the Gold Coast in November to relieve the Littletons<br />

and the Morgans, who are on furlough. The Gold Coast work is a part of the<br />

Nigerian Mission.<br />

Mr. McGinnis is busily engaged in visiting and strengthening the existing<br />

churches, organizing new ones, holding revival services, supervising the erection<br />

of church buildings, training pastors, and visiting day schools. "We thank the<br />

Lord for the privilege of working here in the Gold Coast; but to be the only<br />

couple for such a large area is too much," Mr. McGinnis said in his report. "I<br />

trust that someone who reads this will come over and help us reach the Gold<br />

Coast for the Lord Jesus. The door is wide open for you to enter. You who<br />

can come personally, do come. All can come prayerfully and 'pursefully.' Do<br />

your part."<br />

GOOD NEWS IN SOUTHERN RHODESIA<br />

Missionary Clyde J. Dotson<br />

"Will the mufundisi [missionary] come quickly? A woman is very sick near<br />

Neuso's kraal."<br />

When they received the message, the missionary and his wife climbed into the<br />

large Mission truck and traveled ten miles over slippery roads to a river too<br />

deep for the truck to cross. They waded through to reach the woman and<br />

brought her back to the truck on a machilla [stretcher]. The carriers held<br />

their burden high above their heads as they crossed the swollen stream to the<br />

waiting truck. At the mission station, a few sandwiches and some water were<br />

put in the truck, and they started out to a hospital at Gatooma. Thirty miles<br />

from the station, the truck sank deep into the mud. They worked with it for<br />

hours, but to no avail. When help came the following Tuesday morning they<br />

were camped by the roadside—no food or water since Sunday night. The woman<br />

and her unborn child were dead. They dug a grave by the side of the road and<br />

buried her. The missionary wept as he said, "If only we had had medical help<br />

she might have lived."

Now, the picture is brighter. The new hospital in Sanyati will be half finished<br />

by the end of the year: fifty beds, operating and X-ray rooms, complete equipment,<br />

Christian doctors and nurses. There are other encouraging developments.<br />

Mr. _ and Mrs. R. T. Bowlin, missionaries stationed in Sanyati, will soon be<br />

moving from their pole-and-dagga (hemp) house into the missionary home which<br />

is nearing completion. God laid it upon the hearts of Nigerian Baptists to send<br />

Rev. and Mrs. J. T. Ayorinde to help organize our W.M.U. work, and Royal<br />

Ambassador and Girls' Auxiliary members are witnessing to their neighbors and<br />

friends about the Lord Jesus and what he has done for them. The seven-room<br />

school completed last year is already crowded to capacity; none of the two<br />

hundred new applicants can be accepted for next year, but by 1954 we can take<br />

others. There have been more than two hundred professions of faith in six<br />

months' time.<br />

Gatooma<br />

Work in Gatooma is among both Europeans and Africans. A group of about<br />

35 European Baptists last year built a little church with free labor contributed<br />

by the members, but they have no pastor and the missionary here gives some of<br />

his time to them. Pray with them that a pastor may be sent. There are four<br />

African church groups in the area supervised by the missionary. Sunday is so<br />

full that there is hardly time to eat. The work includes two schools, Sunday<br />

schools, work among Indians and Negroes, and W.M.S. and G.A. organizations.<br />

Rev. and Mrs. C. E. Kratz, new missionaries, will be working in Gatooma when<br />

they reach Rhodesia.<br />

Bulawayo<br />

A new church building was completed in Bulawayo this year. The evangelist<br />

is Bernhard Muzanenhamo. There are 100,000 Africans in the area. Rev. and<br />

Mrs. W. D. Lockard, new missionaries, will be stationed at Bulawayo. This<br />

group led all our churches this year in giving.<br />

Work in Other Centers<br />

An African pastor and his wife serve at Salisbury, where 140 people attend<br />

services regularly. Twelve were baptized during the year. Twenty women are<br />

enrolled in the W.M.S. The municipality has allowed us the use of one of the<br />

schoolrooms for our services, so we have moved in from under the tree where our<br />

work started in Salisbury.<br />

A Baptist church was organized this year at Que Que, a mining center where<br />

Evangelist Samuel Dgoma is working among the Chinyanja-speaking people who<br />

came from Nyasaland. Nineteen people were baptized during the year.<br />

One of our strongest centers is Gwelo where an African pastor, Joseph Nyathi,<br />

is serving. The church has 59 members and maintains eight outstations. Organizations<br />

include Sunday school, W.M.S., G.A., and R.A.<br />

There are about 35 Christians at Shabani, a mining center. Evangelist<br />

Joseph Moyana holds services in his home, but now a church site has been given<br />

us there. Meetings are held regularly at Mashaba and Selukwe<br />

God has been good to us. Eight new missionaries were appointed this year<br />

for Rhodesia, and two of them are already in Africa. Pray for us.

HI^YUGOSLAVIA V<br />

The Ruschlikon seminary was established to aid the Christian forces in Eu<br />

to herald the good news about the kingdom of God. Through the seminary<br />

Southern Baptists aid in the training of ministers, teachers, and missionaries.<br />

It is also designed to undergird and strengthen the fellowship of Baptists of<br />

Europe and to make their witness more effective through their knowledge of one<br />

another and co-operation in the evangelization of their respective nations. The<br />

seminary enables Baptist ministers of the various nations to secure education<br />

and training on a level comparable to the university preparation which the<br />

ministers of state and official churches receive.<br />

Since our seminary is only in its fourth year of operation, we cannot yet<br />

lay claim to any "tradition," but the year 1952 has shown a steadying of our mode<br />

of operation. The curriculum has been worked out on the level of the best seminary<br />

standards in the U.S.A., with adaptations to the various academic standards<br />

for theological studies in European universities. A four-year course of study<br />

requiring 128 semester hours leads to the Bachelor of Divinity degree. Our<br />

teaching staff is complete except for a professor in the fields of religious education,<br />

Christian sociology, and ethics. The present teachers are: Dr. Arthur<br />

B. Crabtree, professor of theology; Dr. John D. Hughey, Jr., professor of<br />

practical theology; Dr. John Allen Moore, professor of church history and<br />

missions; Dr. Heber F. Peacock, Jr., professor of Greek and New Testament<br />

interpretation; Dr. John D. W. Watts, professor of Hebrew and Old Testament<br />

interpretation; Mr. Claus Meister, instructor in biblical backgrounds and Greek;<br />

Miss Vella Jane Burch, librarian.<br />

The Baptist unions of Europe elect their own trustees for the seminary, who<br />

are in turn confirmed by the Foreign Mission Board. These men render invaluable<br />

service by counseling with us regarding the needs and problems facing<br />

the Baptist ministers in their countries. No student is admitted to study at the<br />

Seminary except upon the recommendation of his church, the Baptist union of<br />

his country, and the seminary trustee there.<br />

The following men at present serve as trustees: For Austria: Mr. Richard<br />

Rabenau, Salzburg; for Denmark: Dr. Johannes Norgaard, Tollose; for England;<br />

Dr. E. A. Payne, London, and Dr. M. E. Aubrey, London; for Finland:<br />

Rev. Mikko Kolomainen, Vaasa (Finnish-speaking), and Rev. Alfons Sundqvist,<br />

Veikars (Swedish-speaking); for France and Belgium; Prof. Georges Brabant,<br />

Clamart (Seine); for Germany: Dr. Hans Luckey, Hamburg, and Dr. Jakob<br />

Meister, Berlin; for Holland: vacancy; for Italy: Dr. Manfredi Ronchi, Rome;<br />

for Norway: Rev. Nils Engelsen, Oslo; for Spain: Mr. Antonio Manjon, Albacete;


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD<br />

for Sweden: Dr. Gunnar Westin, Uppsala; for Switzerland: Rev. Kaspar<br />

bcnneiter, Thalwil, Mr. Albert Mann, Zurich, and Rev. E. Pfister, Zurich.<br />

lne enrolment for the fall semester of 1952 was 38 students from 17 different<br />

nations. In addition, we have three conditionally enrolled students, two in<br />

^inland and one in France, who are aided financially by the seminary to enable<br />

them to complete their pre-university schooling before coming to Ruschlikon for<br />

their theological study.<br />

The surrounding territory, especially southern Germany, furnishes our students<br />

with many opportunities for missionary and evangelistic work. They now<br />

serve regularly at six preaching stations. Under the direction of a member of<br />

the faculty, each student participates in some mission activity.<br />

Our Baptist seminary has already become well known among Baptists of<br />

Europe. Increasingly, they look toward Ruschlikon for training, fellowship, and<br />

inspiration. The summer months between school sessions are crowded with<br />

conferences which have made the seminary campus the "Ridgecrest" of Europe.<br />

Dr. Jesse D. Franks has the responsibility for planning and organizing these<br />

conferences. Their spiritual quality and missionary outreach have been on a<br />

very high level.<br />

For the summer of 1953, the following conferences are planned: Women's<br />

Conference, May 20-June 4; Pastors' Conference, June 16-25; Chaplains' Conference,<br />

June 26-30; Laymen's Conference, July 2-8; Editors' Conference, July<br />

10-16; Youth Conference, July 21-28. Our new building facilities will enable<br />

us to accommodate a greater quota than formerly from each country.<br />

During the year 1952 a new student building was completed, and early in<br />

1953 we hope to complete a library wing and needed alterations to the main<br />

building. These new facilities will add immensely to the effective organization<br />

both of the operation of the school and the summer conferences.<br />

Plans are not lacking for the recovery of Europe. The Marshall Plan, the<br />

North Atlantic Treaty Organization, the European Payment Union, the Schuman<br />

Plan, and numerous proposals for a federation of European nations come<br />

to mind. Each claims a particular merit. Our faith is in a divine plan.<br />

From the beginning of time, God had a plan for the redemption of the world<br />

which he brought into effect in Jesus Christ. The Gospels call God's plan the<br />

kingdom of God. Through repentence and faith in Christ Jesus, the kingdom<br />

gathers citizens from all nations. This kingdom can never become an auxiliary<br />

to some other end, politically, socially or economically. The kingdom of God is<br />

primary, the highest goal men can embrace. The present fashion of "emphasizing<br />

religion" in order that "democracy and peace" may be secured, harbors the<br />

danger of making faith in God a means to a temporal end. "Thy kingdom<br />

come" is a prayer for the absolute reign of God, not a waystation to a cleverly<br />

established human society.<br />

ACROSS THE "FIELDS" OF ITALY<br />

Missionary W. Dewey Moore<br />

"I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills from whence cometh my help. My<br />

help cometh from the Lord" (Psalm 121:1-2).<br />

Unless one's view of the hills is across the "fields ripe unto the harvest," they<br />

appear only as obstacles, difficulties, and uncertainties. But with the "fields" in<br />

the foreground, they become symbols of the eternal presence of the Lord of the<br />

harvest, the source of the harvesters' strength.<br />

The 52 Baptist churches and 38 preaching stations in Italy show growth in<br />

spite of a continuing shortage of pastors. They report 268 baptisms—60 of<br />

them from the preaching stations—and 303 in pre-baptism classes. The number<br />

of ordained pastors has increased to 41, making it possible to put pastors in some<br />

places where for years there has been none. Several new preaching stations<br />

have been opened this year, and there has been an increase of over $4,000 in<br />

the total contributions. What is more encouraging, there is a steady increase in<br />

the churches' contributions towards the pastors' maintenance, amounting this<br />

year to $11,000. This represents an advance of more than $1,500 over last year's<br />

contributions. The last five years show a steady growth which has led from a<br />

little less than $3,000 for pastors' salaries to more than $11,000 in 1952.<br />

At Ariccia, the new church is now in operation, with a full-time pastor. A<br />

new hall at Barletta was inaugurated during the summer, and a beautiful new<br />

building many years, at Benedetto, we have a small full-time but pastor complete, at Gioia will be del inaugurated Colle, where shortly. a new building<br />

After<br />

117


118 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

was dedicated last year. At Rivoli, the location of Istituto Filadelfia (the men s<br />

Bible school), a new church group with a flourishing Sunday school has been<br />

organized. Out of the laboratory work of this Sunday school has come considerable<br />

Sunday school teaching material which we hope will meet this critical<br />

need in Sunday school work. A large number of Sunday schools are using the<br />

material, even though it is still in the experimental stage, and there is an increasing<br />

demand for it. During the summer, eighteen or twenty students worked<br />

among the churches, assisting pastors and groups without pastors.<br />

Because of particular problems in our work which temporarily involve also<br />

Istituto Filadelfia at Rivoli, it was decided to suspend the normal activities of<br />

the school until October 1, 1953. Meantime, the students are continuing their<br />

preparation in actual practice, dispersed among the churches, with definite<br />

assignments in the field. Certainly, this will be rich practical experience for<br />

students finishing the last year of their course in the school next year.<br />

The Armstrong Memorial Training School at Rome has twelve students,<br />

several of whom will be graduated in the spring of 1953. There should be effective<br />

fruitage when the first class, being graduated this year, find places of<br />

service in the field. Three new girls were admitted this year, joining with the<br />

others to form an excellent student family. At the close of the regular school<br />

year a summer school was held for leaders of auxiliary work in the churches—<br />

pastors' wives and young women who want to train for work in the churches<br />

but who cannot attend the full course at the school. Miss Grace Tyler, a new<br />

missionary, joined the staff of the school.<br />

Woman's Missionary Union of Italy reports 38 organized unions and another<br />

34 localities where groups of from two to fifteen co-operate in the program.<br />

Approximately 2,000 members, or almost one-half of the Baptist constituency,<br />

are enrolled. Their work has been extended this year through the organization<br />

of thirteen Royal Ambassador chapters and an equal number of Girls' Auxiliaries<br />

which, with one Young Woman's Auxiliary, have a total membership of 302.<br />

The outstanding event of the year is always the Christmas Love Offering, which<br />

increases year by year. This year, as in the past five years, it will be divided between<br />

home and foreign fields, one-half going toward summer camps for boys<br />

and girls in Italy, and the other toward the support of two African field workers,<br />

one in the Gold Coast and the other in Nigeria. Nine hundred dollars was sent<br />

to Africa last year.<br />

The second Young People's Camp was held in mid-summer for a period of<br />

two weeks, and a large group of young people and workers went to Copenhagen<br />

for the European Youth Conference and also represented Italian Baptists at the<br />

Laymen's Conference in Zurich. A new and encouraging initiative was the<br />

camp held for boys and girls of the Royal Ambassadors and Girls' Auxiliary.<br />

The Taylor Orphanage offered hospitality, and a two weeks' camp was held for<br />

boys and another for girls. A full, well-planned program made a personal appeal<br />

to the boys and girls to give their hearts and lives to Christ. This emphasis<br />

resulted in 26 boys and 15 girls out of the 50 present in each camp expressing<br />

their desire to yield their hearts to Christ. The boys and girls and their parents<br />

and pastors are eager for another camp.<br />

November, 1952, saw the inauguration of the Good Samaritan Medical Clinic.<br />

While the visible fruits will be slow, particularly because the official opening<br />

stirred up considerable activity on the part of local Catholic church leaders in an<br />

effort to keep the people from frequenting it, Dr. Marco Fasulo is constantly<br />

being called to homes. Undoubtedly, more and more people will visit the clinic.<br />

The doctor is busy in the work, much of which must be done gratis.<br />

A department of literature was established this year, directed by Dr. Roy F.<br />

Starmer. Multilithograph equipment was installed in the office building. A<br />

number of books have already been translated and published or are in the process<br />

of being published, together with other miscellaneous materials. The regular<br />

production with our own equipment of the badly needed Sunday school material<br />

is anticipated in the near future.<br />

The G. B. Taylor Orphanage has 50 boys and 27 girls. There is a staff of 20.<br />

The newly organized Sunday school, G.A., and R.A. chapters have been a bright<br />

spot there this year. With a regular Sunday morning service, the outreach into<br />

this populous community should be greater and more effective. For almost a<br />

FOREIGN MISSION BOARD<br />

SPANISH BAPTISTS LACK RELIGIOUS LIBERTY<br />

Spain has been without missionaries during the entire year except for visits<br />

made from time to time by the author of this report, who joined the staff of<br />

teachers at the international seminary in Switzerland at the beginning of 1952.<br />

In spite of the lack of missionary leadership and despite serious restrictions<br />

upon religious freedom, progress has been made. Three new churches have been<br />

organized since the last report; four more churches have become self-supporting<br />

(with the exception of the pastor's house rent in one case); and church membership<br />

has steadily increased.<br />

In September, Spanish Baptists were reminded strikingly of the lack of<br />

religious freedom when they were forbidden to hold their annual convention.<br />

Conventions are not specifically authorized by the government's recognition of<br />

"private worship," but Spanish Baptists have held three conventions since 1947.<br />

This year, however, the pastor of the Alicante church, where the convention<br />

was to be held, was advised by the police that he must obtain permission from<br />

the governor to hold the convention. The governor declared that he could not<br />

give the permit without instructions from Madrid, and officials of the Ministry<br />

of the Interior informed the pastor that the Council of Ministers would decide<br />

the matter and notify him in due time. No further word was ever received.<br />

In the latter part of November, smaller regional conferences were held in three<br />

cities without interference by the authorities.<br />

<strong>Services</strong> go on as usual in most churches, but several incidents during the<br />

year have kept Spanish Baptists aware of the fact that they do not have<br />

religious freedom. There was the official order to cease holding services in Elda.<br />

There were the fines of about $250 imposed upon two men for permitting their<br />

friends to accompany to the cemetery the body of the little daughter of one<br />

of the men. There were the many denials of civil marriage for persons baptized<br />

as infants in the Roman Catholic Church. And there was the denial,<br />

through silence, of a permit to buy property for the Second Baptist Church in<br />

Barcelona.<br />

There have also been many encouraging incidents in Spanish Baptist life.<br />

One well worth recording is the fidelity of a young Catholic priest who was<br />

coverted several months ago. A highly intelligent man, he was troubled by the<br />

lack of biblical basis for a number of Catholic beliefs and practices, and he<br />

entered into relationship with the Spanish pastor and some of the Baptist church<br />

members in the town where he lived and taught. He experienced the blessing<br />

of a personal faith which he had not known before and became convinced that<br />

he must leave the Catholic Church. He was warned that great difficulties and<br />

perhaps suffering lay ahead of him if he took it. His own mother disowned him,<br />

saying, "I had rather see you among women of the world than among Protestants."<br />

He had to enter the army for the military service from which as a priest<br />

he had been excused. Great have been his trials and temptations in the army,<br />

but. great also has been his faith. A recent letter from him states, "My earnest<br />

desire is to serve Christ as a minister, and when my military service is over<br />

I hope I may be deemed worthy to enter a seminary."<br />

Three Spanish students are now studying in the seminary in Switzerland,<br />

and another expects to enter in January. Several other young men feel called<br />

to the ministry, and are now attempting to get a secondary school education as a<br />

foundation for seminary training. Dozens of young men and women are preparing<br />

themselves spiritually and intellectually to serve as faithful and efficient<br />

members of the churches. There are many shadows on the 1952 view of Baptists<br />

in Spain; but these young people are a promise for a brighter future.<br />

NEAR EAST<br />

NEW CHALLENGE TO ISRAEL<br />

Missionary Dwight L. Baker<br />

When the new state of Israel was born nearly five years ago, many thought<br />

it could not possibly survive. Not only has it survived, it has flourished. Up<br />

to the end of 1952 it has accomplished the unbelievable feat of bringing 748,000<br />

exiles home. It has built cities, farms, industries. It has drained swamps and<br />

119


120 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

conquered deserts. It has built permanent homes for a half-million of its<br />

immigrants.<br />

Up to this time there has been no great progress toward winning the Jew to<br />

Christ, although one attempt after another has been made. The gains were<br />

counted only by ones and twos. The harvest reaped by zealous young missionaries<br />

who came to serve among these people was frustration and disappointment.<br />

We have reason to believe that that day is past. The new Jew in his own<br />

land is uninhibited, he is open minded, he is seeking truth. As a Jewish writer<br />

puts it: "One thing ... is certain. Nobody in Israel pays lip service to religion.<br />

You may be an orthodox Jew, or a free-lance seeker of God, or have a romantic<br />

attitude toward Judaism as the most precious treasure of our national past, or<br />

be altogether opposed to religion. Whatever the case may be, you profess what<br />

you believe and act accordingly."<br />

Missionaries here feel that this open, frank approach to religion—the willingness<br />

of the people to hear all sides of the question and then act in accordance<br />

with their beliefs—is an open door that heretofore has been closed.<br />

To the stimulus of this challenge, Baptists of Israel have set to their tasks.<br />

One never-to-be-forgotten spring afternoon we watched a Jewish mother and<br />

her son go down into the waters of the Sea of Galilee to follow their Lord in<br />

believer's baptism. Missionary pastor R. L. Lindsey came with them and part<br />

of his congregation from Jerusalem. They were joined at the sea by several<br />

Arab believers from the Nazareth church. A spirit of unity prevailed that one<br />

does not experience elsewhere in this part of the world when Jew and Arab meet.<br />

We remember, too, when Rachel and her brother Elijah, Jewish students in<br />

the Baptist high school in Nazareth, openly confessed Christ as their Messiah.<br />

They are recent immigrants from Egypt, and their parents are still living in<br />

tents in an immigrant camp near Tel Aviv.<br />

Other conversions and baptisms included Yousef, our Arab translator and<br />

teacher of Bible in the grade school. He was already a believer in his heart,<br />

but this year we had the joy of seeing him publicly confess Christ and follow<br />

him in baptism. Also, from fifty conversions among the students of our schools r.;<br />

during the past year, the first young man,Jjhazi, jvras baptized. He gave every J'<br />

evidence of having a genuine experience. A few months after his baptism, he<br />

surrendered to preach, and has already preached his first sermon in Cana of<br />

Galilee. Two converts, Mr. and Mrs. Carom, had left the Greek Catholic<br />

Church in search of a religion they could understand. Their testimonies joyously


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD<br />

proclaimed that they had found their heart's desire in the personal and real<br />

experience 0f salvation that they first heard preached in the Nazareth Baptist<br />

unurch. ^ They have been received by baptism into the followship of that church.<br />

Baptist work has been greatly strengthened in Nazareth with the coming of<br />

two new missionaries, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Rowden. Immediately upon arrival<br />

they took over the direction of the George W. Truett Orphanage and have given<br />

the nineteen lively youngsters living there a real home—a home in which they<br />

are trained and instructed in the Word of God and in the Baptist faith.<br />

Highlighting the year's activities was the second annual R.A. Camp at Acre<br />

on the Mediterranean Sea. Missionary Paul Rowden taught the Gospel of<br />

Mark; Missionary Tom Francis led morning and evening devotions; and I taught<br />

the R.A. Mcmual. On the last night at camp Missionary Elmo Scoggin came up<br />

from Jerusalem and brought the closing message to the thirty-five boys gathered<br />

around the campfire. At the invitation, six young men publicly accepted Christ,<br />

and one surrendered to preach.<br />

At present the Israel mission is sponsoring work in two out-stations. One is<br />

a Bible study class in Hebrew conducted by Missionary Scoggin in Tel Aviv. The<br />

other is a Sunday school and preaching service in the Arab village of Cana of<br />

Galilee.<br />

Missionary Eunice Fenderson is continuing on an ever enlarging scale her<br />

ministry in Jerusalem among the new Jewish immigrants. Missionary Lindsey,<br />

with his family, is on a year's leave of absence for graduate study at Louisville,<br />

Kentucky. Mr. Scoggin has replaced him as acting pastor of the Jerusalem<br />

Church. At this writing we are expecting the ship which will bring two more<br />

missionaries to Israel—Mr. and Mrs. Milton Murphey.<br />

We are grateful to God that we are seeing at last a united force of workers<br />

being assembled in Jewish and Arabic Israel. Pray with us that others may<br />

come. Our present needs call for at least double the present staff of workers, and<br />

within the immediate future forty missionaries ought to be in Israel. God's<br />

tomorrow is beginning today. Events move rapidly in Israel; God may not give<br />

us much longer to get ready. His time is now.<br />

JORDAN HOSPITAL TRANSFERRED TO BAPTISTS<br />

Missionary Jane Carroll McRae<br />

From ancient Gerasa a young woman in deep sorrow was brought to the<br />

Baptist Hospital in Ajloun, Jordan. Her first baby had died at birth two weeks<br />

before, and her Moslem husband exercised his right to divorce her. She lay<br />

deathly ill from gangrene, but the sickness of her heart was deeper. It was a<br />

special joy for Baptists to be able to answer the symbolic lament of Jeremiah,<br />

"Is there no balm in Gilead, is there no physician there?" This woman found<br />

healing for her body and the comfort of Christ for her aching heart, as have<br />

some 4,500 others in the year 1952.<br />

There is indeed a balm in Gilead today, for the 40-bed Baptist hospital,<br />

located in old Gilead, offers comfort, healing, and the message of Christ to the<br />

people of this troubled Bible land. The hospital faces the Jordan Valley about<br />

half way between the Sea of Galilee and the Dead Sea. This is a diseased and<br />

impoverished land, and malnutrition affects almost every patient. The presence<br />

of thousands of refugees from Palestine has added to the misery already found<br />

here.<br />

In the month of June this mission, so ably begun by British missionaries, was<br />

formally transferred to the Foreign Mission Board of the Southern Baptist<br />

Convention. Dr. Lome Brown and family, after six-months' leave for language<br />

study in Beirut, Lebanon, returned in April to effect the transfer and assume<br />

responsibility in the name of Baptists. In June, Dr. J. T. McRae and family<br />

moved to the field after their period of language study. Dr. and Mrs. L. A.<br />

Lovegren will be ready for duty in 1953. These three families constitute the<br />

Baptist missionary staff for the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, which includes<br />

such familiar Bible names as Bethlehem, Old Jerusalem, and Jericho.<br />

The problems in adopting a whole mission, its buildings and staff, were mountainous.<br />

The summer months were spent in working out details of policy and<br />

management and in making plans for needed buildings and equipment. Many<br />

of the obstacles melted away during two series of revival meetings that brought<br />

us all to a oneness in plan and purpose. Twenty-five people stood and made<br />

121


122 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

definite confessions of faith in Christ, and the staff of 45 found a deeper fellowship<br />

with Christ and with each other, renewing their vision of the opportunity<br />

before them.<br />

Material additions to the equipment have been a great blessing in carrying<br />

out that vision. A complete electrical unit with generator is in operation, making<br />

more effective the service in the hospital. An X-ray room is now equipped<br />

and in operation. During his summer vacation Paul Reagan, medical student<br />

and missions volunteer from Little Rock, Arkansas, came to set up a small<br />

laboratory and help to train a young technician. Three of the five buildings so<br />

desperately needed are under construction, and materials are being hauled for<br />

the other two. Roofs of two dwellings have been completed with due celebration<br />

by the traditional slaughtering of goats and making a feast for all the workers.<br />

The foundation of the nurses' home and chapel is laid.<br />

During the Christmas season the chief event was the graduation of the first<br />

two girls from the school of nursing. Both of these girls found Christ during<br />

their days of study here, and one states that she feels a definite call to prepare<br />

herself further and work as a missionary nurse here in her own land. Fourteen<br />

young men and women are now working as student nurses.<br />

Two schools were inherited with the mission, an elementary school in Ajloun<br />

and a primary school in the remote mountain village of Debbin. Freedom is<br />

granted for teaching the Bible daily in each school to the 123 children enrolled.<br />

The six teachers are well-trained Christian girls whose great joy is to witness<br />

for Christ. The school teacher in Debbin lives alone, isolated during most of<br />

the winter, and gives the only Christian witness heard there. She conducts the<br />

Sunday school and presents a simple message to the adults each week. The<br />

teachers in the Ajloun school form the staff of the Sunday school and are faithful<br />

helpers in all the evangelistic work.<br />

Though the group of believers in Ajloun is not yet organized into a church,<br />

about 100 meet each Sunday for worship. Mid-week Bible study and prayer meeting<br />

are conducted. The women hold their own meetings in the homes. Four members<br />

of the hospital staff take turns in preaching. A hospital seamstress gives<br />

half of each day to witnessing among the women patients. Devotional messages<br />

are brought each morning for all patients and workers. An effort is made to<br />

reach the families of all patients with the gospel message.<br />

On Sunday evenings the staff members gather in one of the missionary homes<br />

for what is equivalent to a Training Union. Many of these young Christians are<br />

learning to give a powerful testimony. Plans are being made for the organization<br />

of a Baptist church in early 1953.<br />

Perhaps God will raise up other Elijahs in this mount of the prophet of old,<br />

for surely his heart aches for the people of this land which he chose to cradle his<br />

own Son.<br />

OPPORTUNITY IS GREAT IN LEBANON<br />

Missionary Finlay M. Graham<br />

The entire length of Lebanon, from its border with Syria to its southern<br />

border with Israel, can be traversed by car in a mere four hours; and its widest<br />

part from east to west stretches no more than 55 miles. But this, the smallest<br />

of the Arab states, and surely the smallest country in which Southern Baptists<br />

have missionaries, holds a position of importance far outreaching its size.<br />

Beirut, its capital city, has the chief international airport in the Near East.<br />

Serving as a seaport for the adjoining countries of Syria and Jordan, and to some<br />

extent for Iraq and Iran, countries farther afield, it provides a meeting ground<br />

and a point of contact for businessmen from near and far in the Arab East.<br />

Here may be found the chief money-changers of the Arab world, the main<br />

regional offices of western business associations, and the American University,<br />

originally a mission school, whose influence for good cannot be denied. (Is it<br />

not significant that when the people of Lebanon, following the example of Syria<br />

and Egypt, felt the need of a change in regime, this change took place quietly<br />

and without bloodshed? A strike of a few days was sufficient to convince the<br />

old leaders that they were no longer the choice of the people.) Also it was in<br />

Beirut that UNESCO was organized. Although it has no commercially exploited<br />

oil resources of its own, Lebanon provides a terminus for two major<br />

pipe lines that transport the black gold thousands of miles across the deserts<br />

of its Iraq comparative Syria, and measure Arabia. of Lebanon religious is tolerance unique among occasioned Arab by countries the balance because of

Mos? 1 " existing between its two main groups, Christian (mainly Catholic) and<br />

Des Pite the rise of ardent nationalism with its concomitant aversion to the<br />

West, the opportunity to witness for Christ here in this land where Jesus walked<br />

has never been greater. Political reforms and improved educational and living<br />

standards can never satisfy man's soul hunger, but personal acquaintance with<br />

the Son of God can. This has been gloriously proved during the past year of<br />

witness here, especially during revival meetings held in two of our churches and<br />

at two other preaching points. Much prayer preparation was made for these<br />

ventures, and the results in decisions recorded were far beyond our expectations.<br />

When, at one village meeting, 25 Catholics stood publicly to indicate their desire<br />

to accept Christ, strident priestly opposition became evident. The house in which<br />

the meeting was held was attacked by a yelling mob and some blood was shed,<br />

but Christ had the ultimate victory; and, to the credit of the persecuted believers<br />

rejoicing in their new-found faith, not one of them raised a hand in<br />

self-defense.<br />

More than forty friends from the homeland visited the work here during the<br />

year, among them Dr. M. Theron Rankin, Mrs. George Martin of Virginia, and<br />

Mrs. R. L. Mathis of Texas. The ministry of these pilgrims was a rich blessing<br />

to Lebanese Baptists.<br />

Statistics show that the work has grown numerically and in spiritual depths.<br />

Membership in churches and affiliated organizations has increased; but the real<br />

progress may be gauged not so much by the baptisms and other additions as by<br />

the greater missionary spirit, the deepened prayer life, and the almost doubled<br />

offerings for the work of the Lord.<br />

As Baptist work progresses, the need for a Bible school to train young people<br />

for the work of the Lord is being felt more and more. But with only one missionary<br />

couple and two single missionaries (we were very grateful for the arrival<br />

in September of Miss Virginia Cobb), how much can be done in that direction?<br />

Several of our young people of promise are being assisted to finish<br />

their high-school education; two are in college, one in Lebanon and one in Texas,<br />

and a young man studying at the Zurich seminary should be ready to return<br />

to Lebanon soon to help in the work. We need more missionaries and feel that,<br />

to a large extent, any advance we make is dependent on our receiving at least<br />

two couples, one to serve in the north of Lebanon, with Tripoli as a base, and<br />

the other to promote our school work in Beirut.<br />

Politically and economically, the Arab East stands at a crossroads. A new era<br />

lies before it. Lebanon, we know, will play an important part in whatever<br />

develops. Under God, Southern Baptists can influence this country and its<br />

people for Christ. The fields are white; "pray ye therefore the Lord of the<br />

harvest that he will send forth labourers." And if you pray in faith, you will all<br />

give, and some will come in person to help make Christ known.<br />

Report on Latin America<br />

EVERETT GILL, JR., Secretary<br />

The phenomenal economic progress of Latin America continues as modernistic<br />

structures of concrete and steel gradually displace old colonial centers with their<br />

thick adobe walls and red-tiled roofs. Great strides have also been made toward<br />

improving education, medicine, and general living conditions. Latin America,<br />

however, continues to struggle to free itself from the chains of its medieval<br />

heritage of dictatorship, poverty, illiteracy, disease, and superstition.<br />

Freedom and democracy have suffered a setback during recent years as they<br />

have struggled to maintain their position between the extremes of a clericalfascist<br />

dictatorship on the one hand, and an atheistic communistic uprising on<br />

the other. The latter is still a minority group, but a relentless one which thrives<br />

in the fertile soil of poverty and landlordism.<br />

During the past year my duties took me to our new work in the Bahama<br />

Islands, with its population of 70,000, where Dr. and Mrs. H. H. McMillan serve<br />

as representatives of our Board. This is an old work initiated over a century<br />

ago by the London Baptist Missionary Society and reports some 20,000 Baptists<br />

organized into 200 churches. Dr. and Mrs. John Mein of North Brazil will join<br />

them in 1953.<br />

Another tour included all of our Spanish-speaking work in South America,


124 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

including Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, and<br />

Paraguay, with a brief stopover in Portuguese-speaking Rio de Janeiro. I returned<br />

with renewed faith in the worthwhileness of our missionary undertaking<br />

and the soundness of our strategy. In spite of many tensions, restrictions, and<br />

continuing persecutions in Colombia, there is, throughout the continent, an unusual<br />

amount of religious freedom, for which we are grateful to God. New missionary<br />

appointees are filling depleted ranks and opening new centers of work. At<br />

present, 30 of our new missionaries are enrolled in the language school at San<br />

Jose, Costa Rica, preparing for service in 12 Spanish-speaking nations, and 18<br />

are studying Portuguese in the Campinas language school, planning to serve in<br />

Brazil.<br />

During 1952 our first full-time missionaries to Honduras were appointed—<br />

Rev. and Mrs. Harold E. Hurst and Rev. and Mrs. John D. Ratliff, now in<br />

language school. In the Caribbean, Rev. and Mrs. C. W. McCullough brought the<br />

new mission launch, Dorcas, safely from Houston, Texas, to the port of San<br />

Andres Island off the coast of Nicaragua. Throughout the continent new construction<br />

is going forward rapidly, made possible through the increased giving<br />

of our churches at home. In Asuncion, Paraguay, a new 50-bed hospital was<br />

inaugurated in December, 1952, to become the first completed Baptist hospital<br />

in South America.<br />

Many visitors have made extended tours throughout South America this last<br />

year, with hundreds more planning to attend the great Youth Congress of the<br />

Baptist World Alliance in Rio de Janeiro, July 15-22, 1953. After visiting the<br />

continent, Dr. J. W. Decker of the International Missionary Council writes:<br />

"We thank God for what we saw and heard. It was a forcible demonstration of<br />

the fact that when some doors are closed . . . others are opened. . . . Latin<br />

America constitutes one of the greatest opportunities and challenges which faces<br />

the world mission. . . . The door is wide open for unlimited advance. The<br />

evangelical churches there are well rooted, very much alive, and growing."<br />

The record of that advance is portrayed in the following field reports written<br />

by those who bear the brunt of battle and who speak from years of missionary<br />

experience.<br />

PORTUGUESE AMERICA<br />

VARIETY CHARACTERIZES EQUATORIAL BRAZIL<br />

Missionary Burton de Wolfe Davis<br />

Variety is an outstanding characteristic of all mission work; it is especi<br />

evident in the work of this Mission. In each state of Equatorial Brazil, work<br />

varies from modern institutions in large cities where educated and cultured<br />

people are contacted to the most primitive work among semicivilized people of<br />

the interior. Universities, theaters, clubs and other cultural establishments may<br />

grace a modern city which is only a stone's throw from people living in a most<br />

primitive fashion. No other part of Brazil has as many primitive Indian tribes<br />

as the equatorial area.<br />

Transportation for the missionaries varies from modern planes—one owned by<br />

the Mission itself—to trucks, trains, canoes, donkey-back, and boat. Almost no<br />

highways exist in the vast area and those that do exist are not usable during<br />

the rains.<br />

As the equatorial section is one of the last to be entered in force by Baptists,<br />

we meet intense anti-Protestant opposition from the Roman Catholic Church and<br />

those under its jurisdiction. The stoning of Christians and the destruction of<br />

evangelical churches and property of Believers are not at all uncommon. The<br />

Roman church has sent great numbers of nuns and priests from America into<br />

this area, foreseeing the opening of one of the world's last frontiers. Baptists<br />

have only a few missionaries in comparison. Brazilian Baptists, though they<br />

are few in number in Equatorial Brazil, are making monumental sacrifices to<br />

carry on the work of evangelization. Because of the undeveloped stage of Baptist<br />

work, there is little possibility of their receiving a living wage for religious<br />

activities, and many are forced to take secular employment as well. The last<br />

three years, since the organization of the Equatorial Mission, has seen great<br />

steps forward in Baptist development, and the next ten years should reveal more<br />

than the previous one hundred.


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD<br />

<strong>Amazon</strong>as<br />

In the state of <strong>Amazon</strong>as, Mr. and Mrs. C. D. Hardy and Mr.^ and Mrs. J. L.<br />

Moon are covering a territory that is unbelievably vast, although it has a population<br />

of only 500,000 people. Our Baptist work is scattered through the jungles<br />

around the city of Manaus. Our elementary school there will soon have a building<br />

to replace the dormitory for girls that went up in flames after a time of Catholic<br />

persecution. Many mission points are reached by launch; Mr. Hardy preaches<br />

along the banks of the great rivers while Mrs. Hardy, a nurse, sets up her<br />

temporary clinic under the shade of a jungle tree.<br />

Para<br />

On down the mighty <strong>Amazon</strong> from Manaus is the city of Santarem in the<br />

state of Para, where our work has progressed remarkably under the direction<br />

of Mr. and Mrs. Lonnie Doyle. A new primary school building has gone up, and<br />

the school is filled to overflowing. A new church is also being built. Mr.<br />

Doyle's work varies ^from river trips to work in town. It is very similar in many<br />

ways to the work done in the city of Belem, Para, the first city that greets one<br />

upon arrival from the States. A remarkable wave of progress is evident in this<br />

section under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Vance Vernon, who have recently<br />

received the co-operation of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Sanderson. The new missionaries<br />

are already completely engulfed in the many duties of the field. One of the<br />

greatest steps forward in Belem is the coming construction of the First Baptist<br />

Church in one of the largest centers of the city. This is made possible by the<br />

women of the Southern Baptist Convention through their gifts to missions. (The<br />

schools in Manaus and Santarem are also indebted to the Southern Baptist<br />

W.M.U. for their buildings.)<br />

Maranhao<br />

The state of Maranhao, which has one of the best communication systems in<br />

the Equatorial area, has an extensive mission work. A new church is being<br />

125


126 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

built in the capital city of Sao Luiz, and the interior boasts two schools as well<br />

as several churches. Our missionaries in Sao Luiz are Mr. and Mrs. Daniel<br />

Luper and Mr. and Mrs. Joe Carl Johnson.<br />

North Piaui<br />

Mr. and Mrs. John Oliver are our missionaries in the capital of the state o<br />

Piaui. A beautiful new school building, also built by the ladies of the Southem<br />

Baptist Convention, is being opened to the public in that city. The First Baptist<br />

Church of Teresina is one of the most outstanding churches in Brazil in its<br />

denominational work.<br />

Ceara<br />

Ranking with the Teresina church is the First Baptist Church of Fortaleza,<br />

Ceara, one of the few churches where more than 95 per cent of the members are<br />

tithers. It has become one of the leading churches in Brazil in self-support and<br />

denominational giving. The building of the church was given five years ago by<br />

the Southern Baptist W.M.U. A Baptist academy, the Colegio Batista Santos<br />

Dumont, founded by the Mission and now in its third triumphant year, is located<br />

in Fortaleza. This city was without Baptist work, except for a tiny church of<br />

twelve members, seven years ago before our missionaries came here. In addition<br />

to the institutions mentioned, it now has a second Baptist church, a clinic,<br />

and a Baptist bookstore. Mr. and Mrs. Burton de Wolfe Davis and Mr. and<br />

Mrs. Robert Standley are the Baptist missionaries in this state, which has a<br />

population of about three million people.<br />

Our work in Equatorial Brazil, almost wholly staffed by younger missionaries,<br />

has taken a forward step and is very firmly established because of the unflagging<br />

loyalty of the people in America who are interested in world evangelism.<br />

STEADY ADVANCE IN NORTH BRAZIL<br />

Missionary Betty Waters Tennison<br />

North Brazil Mission includes six states and part of another, with nine mis<br />

sion stations organized to provide for efficiency. This great expanse includes a<br />

little over 355,000 square miles of land which varies from the desert dryness of<br />

the interior to the florid beauty associated with the tropics. Approximately<br />

14,000,000 people live in these regions, or an average of 39 persons per square<br />

mile. Of this number, a mere one-eighth of 1 per cent are affiliated with our<br />

Baptist churches. This is by no means a disheartening fact, but rather, is an<br />

encouragement that this much has been done in so short a time. The opportunities<br />

for future advance are challenging. The foundations are securely laid, and<br />

the edifice is just beginning. Our personnel includes 51 missionaries who are<br />

giving their time either to direct evangelism or to the important work of<br />

preaching Christ through our Baptist schools.<br />

The advancement of the Kingdom as Southern Baptists preach Christ through<br />

their representatives here, is seen in the following reports given by missionaries<br />

in the respective states.<br />

Alagoas<br />

From the five churches located in Maceio, the capital city, Baptist work<br />

radiates throughout the state of Alagoas to include a total of 18 churches with<br />

1,200 members. One new church has been received into the state Baptist convention<br />

during the year. The field missionary, Boyd O'Neal, and seven national<br />

pastors have the tremendous job of reaching people all over the state for Christ.<br />

Despite bitter opposition from the Romanists, the small Baptist group have<br />

strengthened their forces to carry out the greatest of commissions—preaching a<br />

gospel of love and hope. Like most of the other states in North Brazil, Alagoas<br />

suffers from a lack of workers both to serve the already established work and<br />

to enter new sections with the gospel.<br />

High on a cliff in Maceio, dominating a scenic view of the blue Atlantic, stands<br />

a lighthouse, giving welcome assurance and direction to weary seamen. Sharing<br />

that prominent position is the Baptist academy of the state with its 500 students.<br />

Through the years, this "lighthouse" of Christian education has penetrated the<br />

darkness with its message of assurance and hope. Each year the school sponsors


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD 127<br />

a retreat, with Baptists from all over the state coming to gain renewed vision<br />

and strength for the enormous task yet ahead. For these meetings a beautiful,<br />

spacious new auditorium, built through the gifts of the Lottie Moon Offerings,<br />

is crowded to capacity to hear outstanding Baptist leaders of the nation.<br />

Baia<br />

Comprising more than 50 per cent of the territory of the North Brazil Mission,<br />

picturesque Baia stretches her boundaries to include 4,500,000 people. Although<br />

Baptist work in Brazil first began in this historically famous state, fully twothirds<br />

of its counties, because of a lack of personnel still have no Baptist witness.<br />

Seventy churches with thirty-three pastors co-operate with Southern Baptists in<br />

the evangelization of Baia. These churches have about 8,000 members and consistently<br />

report between 450 and 550 baptisms each year. In a recent survey<br />

made by the Mission, fifteen new missionaries were requested to adequately man<br />

this vast land of opportunity. The six missionaries now living in the state must<br />

divide their time between our Baptist schools and direct evangelization and<br />

cannot possibly reach all the important centers.<br />

In the capital city of Salvador, the Kate White Domestic School continues to<br />

give practical training to young women, enabling them to better serve their own<br />

homes and people. The school implants the desire to make Christ real in every<br />

aspect of Christian life. It has seven teachers and an enrolment of 200.<br />

The sleepy, country town of Jaguaquara has as its biggest attraction and<br />

activity, the Taylor-Egidio School. Students from all over the interior section<br />

come to make up its 500 enrolment; because of the vast distances, most of them<br />

must become boarding students. From the primary to the normal school departments,<br />

the Jaguaquara school is unique in its large influence, being one of the<br />

two large Baptist centers in North Brazil that are located in the rural regions.<br />

As an indication of the strong influence of Christian education, about 50 of the<br />

70 churches of Baia are centered in the regions near our school.<br />

Missionary M. G. White speaks enthusiastically of the expected arrival of a<br />

new missionary couple to enter one of the regions now without a Baptist witness.<br />

City after city exists within a few-hours' drive where pioneer missionary work can<br />

be done. The center of this new field will be the prosperous city of Feira de<br />

Santana, crossroads for all north and south commerce.<br />

The first Baptist church organized on Brazilian soil was located in Salvador,<br />

and now not only Baia Baptists, but Baptists throughout Brazil are in a campaign<br />

to erect a memorial church building as an expression of gratitude for those who<br />

brought the gospel to the land of the Southern Cross and as an inspiration to<br />

Brazilian Baptists.<br />

Paraiba<br />

Paraiba, a state with 1,700,000 people, is just in its beginning as far as<br />

Baptist work is concerned. Sixteen Baptist churches with 1,300 members proclaim<br />

the message of salvation. Six national pastors, three evangelists, and two<br />

missionary pastors serve the 16 churches, 19 established outstations, and 72<br />

regular preaching stations. Our work in Paraiba is steadily advancing. One<br />

baptism was reported for every eight members during the past year, and an<br />

intensive spirit of evangelism permeates our ranks. Regions with 300,000 to<br />

500,000 people and with one worker or no worker at all, raise their voices in<br />

agonizing prayer, "Come over . . . and help us."<br />

The Baptist primary school in Joao Pessoa, under the able leadership of<br />

Missionary Ruby Hines, met this year in its beautiful new building provided by<br />

gifts from the Lottie Moon Offering. Each day begins with Bible reading and<br />

prayer, and definite religious services are held each week. As premiums for<br />

excellent work or perfection in their studies students are given copies of the<br />

Bible. With an enrolment of 150, of whom 60 per cent are non-Christian, the<br />

school is planting the seed of the gospel, which will surely find root and grow.<br />

Pernambuco<br />

Fifteen thousand strong, on Brazil's Independence Day, Baptists of Pernambuco<br />

and their friends met in the public square, "Treze de Maio," in the city of<br />

Recife to proclaim the gospel. This climaxed a week of simultaneous evangelistic<br />

meetings in more than 50 churches and came after months of intensive prepara-


128 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

tion led by the field missionary, J. B. Underwood. More than 700 decisions were<br />

reported as a result of this co-operative effort. Baptists in Pernambuco are<br />

on the march; Christians and non-Christians alike are marveling at the impact<br />

made for Christ. With 100 churches served by 50 national and five missionary<br />

pastors and five evangelists, Pernambuco boasts 9,000 Baptists.<br />

The theological seminary of North Brazil, located in Recife, celebrated its<br />

golden jubilee this year. Dr. John Mein, president, reported an enrolment of<br />

50—the largest in its history. The fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the<br />

school was celebrated with a week of varied activities climaxed with a moving<br />

drama of the struggles and successes of this important institution. The seminary<br />

serves all the northern section of Brazil with men from eleven states<br />

among it students. Sixteen were graduated this year, setting another record<br />

in the upward trend of Christian education. The immeasurable influence of<br />

the seminary surges through our Baptist work in the conquest for Christ.<br />

The Training School for young ladies, sister institution to the seminary,<br />

stands among the swaying foliage of tropical Recife as a lasting monument of<br />

the devotion of the W.M.U. of the South to the Christian training so necessary<br />

for our work. More than 40 girls were enrolled this year, receiving instruction<br />

that will enable them to go out to serve their own people as teachers, home<br />

missionaries, wives of pastors, and foreign missionaries.<br />

The spacious campus of the American Baptist College in Recife was the locale<br />

for the annual encampment which attracts hundreds from three states. The<br />

newly erected auditorium which seats well over 1,000 was full and overflowing<br />

for these days of information and inspiration. The college, under the interim<br />

direction of Missionary David Mein, has an enrolment of more than 1,000 for<br />

the year.<br />

Perched high on the mountains of western Pernambuco stands the Green<br />

Mountain Bible School, directed by Missionary L. L. Johnson. Ten young men<br />

and women were enrolled this year. This school, which came into existence<br />

to fulfil a desperate need for more workers for the interior regions of Brazil,<br />

is housed in new and adequate quarters.<br />

Rio Grande do Norte<br />

For several years Baptist work in the little state of Rio Grande do Norte<br />

struggled along under adverse and disheartening conditions, but during the past<br />

two years the work has more than doubled. There are now nine churches with<br />

a combined membership of 480. To serve the churches the state has five national<br />

pastors, the field missionary, and two evangelists. The mission car, fondly<br />

called "The Pilgrim" by Missionary J. A. Tumblin, has been constantly bouncing<br />

over the rocky wastes to carry the gospel message. Through the untiring efforts<br />

of the consecrated workers, the gospel has taken root. One baptism was reported<br />

for each seven members this year.<br />

Under the able direction of Mrs. J. A. Tumblin and Pastor Gabino Brelaz, the<br />

Baptist primary school located in Natal, the state capital, continues to grow in<br />

the ample building provided by Southern Baptists. Seven national professors<br />

and Mrs. Tumblin gave Christian and secular instruction to 188 students during<br />

the year. All of the teachers are Christians trained in our Baptist schools.<br />

Sergipe<br />

Conspicuous for its smallness, the state of Sergipe overcomes its territor<br />

limits by being thickly populated. Distributed over the state are twelve Baptist<br />

churches with about 900 members. Fortunate in the number of its dedicated<br />

pastors, Sergipe has more workers proportionately than most other fields. Two<br />

of this year's graduates from the seminary accepted work there, increasing the<br />

total number of pastors to seven national pastors and the field missionary,<br />

Maurice Treadwell. Located in Aracaju, the state capital, yet within easy<br />

reach of all sections of the state, three churches demonstrate their evangelistic<br />

fervor by going out once a month in rented trucks to preach the gospel and distribute<br />

literature. Encountering opposition and rebuff does not dim their zeal.<br />

Not only by the means already mentioned, but also through efficient use of the<br />

radio, the gospel is preached. Companion to these methods is the important<br />

clinical work done in Aracaju—healing the body and pointing the soul to the<br />

Great Physician. Almost a hundred patients each month are treated and each<br />

one is an opportunity to preach a living Christ.


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD<br />

Two small primary schools receive some help from our Baptist work, though<br />

not officially affiliated with the state Baptist convention. Each student is a fertile<br />

mind on which to implant Christian ideals. Who can guess the future progress<br />

that may result from right instruction in the formative years?<br />

South Piaui<br />

_ Distinctive from all other mission stations of the North Brazil Mission, the<br />

isolated section of southern Piaui presents vast areas and few people. Our work<br />

centers in the small town of Corrente where Baptists and their work predominate.<br />

Here we find a combination of each type of work of Brazilian Baptists: direct<br />

evangelism, educational, clinical, and agricultural work, and aviation. Each<br />

contributes to the other by their co-operative efforts.<br />

Two churches with 400 members in South.Piaui reported 50 baptisms during<br />

the year. Besides the two established churches, ten outstations are visited<br />

regularly, using the mission plane to cover the great distances and to distribute<br />

students to some of these points each week end. In like manner the plane,<br />

piloted by Missionary Robert Fielden, carries these students or busy laymen<br />

back to Corrente on Monday to resume their studies or occupations. By plane,<br />

communication with the "outside world" is a matter of hours; overland it means<br />

days or even weeks of travel. The little four-seated plane is held in high respect<br />

not only as a carrier of the gospel but as a messenger of mercy to aid those in<br />

physical need—bringing the people to the doctor or taking the doctor to the<br />

people. In the clinic located in Corrente over 3,000 patients received attention<br />

during the past year. Two national doctors co-operate in this valiant service<br />

of healing and preaching.<br />

A new aspect of the mission work is the agricultural development made<br />

possible by the appointment of a trained agronomist. The work is new and<br />

equipment is almost non-existent, but Missionary H. W. Fite labors courageously<br />

and gradually the soil is being restored and properly prepared to provide the<br />

physical needs of the isolated people.<br />

The primary and industrial departments of the Industrial School of Southern<br />

Piaui offer the only schooling within thousands of square miles. Baptist-owned<br />

and operated, the school is noted for its Christian atmosphere. History has<br />

proved its worth by the number of pastors and full-time Christian workers it<br />

has produced, besides the many faithful laymen and women. This year 325 were<br />

enrolled with a faculty of 18 national teachers and one missionary.<br />

From the humble beginning of one Baptist church with five members, the<br />

gospel has rapidly grown in North Brazil and the nation. The territory included<br />

in the North Brazil Mission now has 225 churches with an average of 94 members<br />

per church. Last year one baptism was reported for every 11.5 members.<br />

New church buildings have been constructed, new fields have been entered, and<br />

visions have become realities. With humble hearts, our voices are lifted:<br />

"Thanks be unto God who giveth us the victory through Christ Jesus."<br />

ACTION IN SOUTH BRAZIL<br />

Missionary Gene H. Wise<br />

The South Brazil Mission covers an area approximately equal to that of all of<br />

the Southern Baptist Convention. It includes some states which dwarf Texas<br />

in size. The Brazilian capital, the country's greatest industrial state, and 61<br />

per cent of the nation's population are found within the territory of this,<br />

Southern Baptists' largest single mission.<br />

In this vast region which has so many advantages, among which are the<br />

people's receptiveness to the gospel and the religious freedom granted by the<br />

government, great developments are taking place in the Lord's work. Last year<br />

more than 6,500 people were baptized in South Brazil. Thirty-two new churches<br />

were organized, bringing the number of Baptist churches in the mission to<br />

706, with a total membership of 80,281.<br />

To balance encouraging aspects of the South Brazil Mission's report, the<br />

discouraging part of the work also needs to be presented here. There are 905<br />

counties in South Brazil without any Baptist church, as compared to 277<br />

counties with Baptist churches. Though our work is well established in a few<br />

key cities, the vast-interior churches without trained leadership or sufficient<br />

missionary supervision are suffering from divisions and are losing members to<br />

other denominations.<br />

130 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Goias<br />

Blonnye H. Foreman, missionary in central Goias, a vast frontier area just<br />

now in the beginning stages of government development, feels that he is in a<br />

strategic place so far as future Baptist work is concerned. "Within ten years<br />

central Goias should become a real Baptist stronghold," he declared at the annual<br />

mission meeting. To illustrate development of the area, he told of the progress<br />

being made in one of his preaching points, Parana. Formerly an isolated, unhealthy<br />

village, it is now free from mosquitos, has a fine airport, and has the<br />

promise of two state roads in the future. Mr. Foreman opened a school in<br />

Parana this year with a young Baptist woman as teacher. Two years ago<br />

there were three Christians in this interior village; today there are twelve. Mr.<br />

Foreman hopes to have an airplane soon, which will make it possible for him to<br />

visit all of his mission points much oftener than he has been able to in the past.<br />

Other missionaries in the state of Goias are Mr. and Mrs. James Musgrave<br />

and Mr. and Mrs. Horace Buddin. Mr. Buddin reports the following gains<br />

during the last year: For the first time, all ten churches of the state co-operated<br />

in the state program of evangelism; five new national workers were located;<br />

two churches became self-supporting; the Baptist primary school in Goiania<br />

has increased its enrolment to 103 pupils and now has five teachers; a Baptist<br />

bookstore was opened in Goiania.<br />

Mato Grosso<br />

Work in the huge state of Mato Grosso, which dwarfs Texas in size, is bein<br />

carried on by two young missionaries, Glenn Bridges and Charles Compton, and<br />

their families and Miss Ann Wollerman. Though they all like the wide open<br />

spaces, the immensity of their field together with its small, scattered population<br />

creates problems as well as benefits. It is literally impossible for them to accept<br />

all the invitations that come to preach and visit in the villages and on the<br />

ranches of their vast region. "It was our sad experience recently to have to<br />

refuse the invitation of a lady who had come to beg us to visit her village and<br />

hold preaching services," said Mr. Bridges. "She said there were twelve people<br />

in the village who were studying the Bible but that no missionary has ever<br />

visited them. I had to say, 'I am sorry, but this time I cannot go. I will try<br />

to return in August!'"<br />

As secretary of the state convention, Mr. Bridges, who lives in the city of<br />

Campo Grande, has much bookkeeping and administrative work to do. Nevertheless,<br />

he was able to make this report of his personal activities during the<br />

year: "This year I have preached 125 times, witnessed 53 professions of faith,<br />

performed 21 baptisms, spent 160 days away from home, and slept 96 nights in a<br />

hammock!"<br />

Mr. Compton, reporting on the north central zone where he works, said there<br />

is an ambitious little church with 47 members in Coronel Galvao, a city of 3,000<br />

people. This church, of which Mr. Compton is interim pastor, is at present looking<br />

forward to buying an organ and to building a Sunday school-dayschool<br />

building. It has adopted a unified budget of more than $700 and is contributing<br />

to all causes. Though the church is weak in Coxim, a town which<br />

lies 35 miles to the north on the federal highway, it has a congregation which is<br />

larger than the mother church! Two beautiful lots have been chosen on which<br />

to erect a building for this congregation. On beyond are twenty-five to thirty<br />

settlements with more than 500 people each, in which there is no Baptist work.<br />

Mr. Compton, who has just completed his first year on the field, is enthusiastic<br />

about the future prospects in the huge plains country. He reports that<br />

Catholicism in the area is weak and unorganized.<br />

Some of the highlights of the year's activities of Ann Wollerman, who is<br />

doing real pioneer work alone in the town of Amambai, are as follows: During<br />

an evangelistic trip which she made with members of her church, their rented<br />

truck overturned and a number of the people were injured. All showed such<br />

calmness and courage that the townspeople were much impressed. As a result<br />

of the accident, two people rededicated their lives and a young man of the<br />

church surrendered to the ministry. He was ordained and called as pastor of the<br />

church a short time later. Miss Wollerman's school reached a record enrolment<br />

FOREIGN MISSION BOARD<br />

Minas Gerais<br />

On the first day of the year the new Minas state Baptist headquarters building<br />

in Belo Horizonte was dedicated, and the 0. P. Maddox Baptist Book Store<br />

was opened. This, to Missionary S. S. Stover, corresponding secretary of the<br />

state Baptist convention, was a significant indication of the progress of Baptist<br />

work in this state which has over 8,500,000 people and almost nine thousand<br />

Baptists. The new building houses the state office and book store on the ground<br />

floor, and a modern apartment on the second floor.<br />

Mr. Stover is quick to point out, however, that the progress evidenced by the<br />

new headquarters building presents only one side of the picture of Baptist work<br />

in Minas Gerais. "In the south zone where there are over four and one half<br />

million people, there are only four small Baptist churches and not one pastor,"<br />

he said. "In addition to the opportunities for evangelistic work in this and other<br />

thickly populated sections, we have congregations with as many as 40 members<br />

which could be organized into churches if we had someone to visit and indoctrinate<br />

them."<br />

J. A. Lunsford, who teaches night Bible classes for a group of 38 students<br />

in the Baptist Academy of Belo Horizonte and who serves as co-pastor of a<br />

church in nearby Barreiro, held a number of excellent revival meetings last<br />

year, one of which resulted in the conversion of a bank inspector who had been<br />

contemplating suicide. "Such experiences as this make one forget all the difficulties<br />

he has had in trying to serve," he said.<br />

Mrs. Rosalee Appleby moved into a mission building last year in which there<br />

is space for Sunday school classes in addition to living quarters. She has been<br />

leading an active congregation and has also spoken at a number of youth meetings<br />

in other states, and has finished a devotional book in the Portuguese language.<br />

Other missionaries in Minas Gerais are Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Harrington, who<br />

direct the Baptist Academy of Belo Horizonte in which there are 748 students,<br />

and Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Jackson who are doing field work in the southeastern<br />

part of the state. This is a rapidly developing area in which there are unlimited<br />

opportunities for Baptists to start work in new towns where tradition and<br />

Catholicism are not strongly entrenched.<br />

Espirito Santo<br />

Rev. and Mrs. James P. Kirk are the only Southern Baptist missionaries in<br />

the state of Espirito Santo, which has a population of 870,000. Mr. Kirk, who<br />

spent a good part of his time last year traveling horseback and on top of loaded<br />

trucks to visit as many interior churches as possible, said there are now 76<br />

Baptist churches in Espirito Santo, and 34 national pastors. About half of the<br />

pastors give their full time to the ministry and the others are businessmen,<br />

teachers, and politicians, as well as preachers.<br />

"In spite of the comparatively large number of churches in the state, less<br />

than 1 per cent—.86 of 1 per cent, to be exact—of the total population or the<br />

state are evangelical Christians." Mr. Kirk declared. There is only one other<br />

evangelical missionary couple in the state.<br />

Rio de Janeiro<br />

The leading military academy of this country, which is located in the state of<br />

Rio de Janeiro and known as the "West Point of Brazil," added an interesting<br />

feature to its graduation exercises this year. The commanding general presented<br />

a Bible to each member of the graduation class. These Bibles had been made<br />

available by our field missionary, Walter McNealy, who reports that he was<br />

given the privilege of preaching to the student body of the academy. Mr. Mc­<br />

Nealy reported that there are now 207 churches in the state of Rio de Janeiro.<br />

Miss Blanche Simpson gave the following information about her work in the<br />

Baptist school in the city of Campos: "Seventy-seven students who are preparing<br />

for definite Christian work are enrolled in my two courses. Fifty-seven of them<br />

are taking the pre-theological course of three years. Twenty students are in<br />

my advanced Bible course. My ministerial students go out on evangelistic trips<br />

on Saturdays and Sundays to get practical training." Miss Simpson said the<br />

school in Campos has an enrolment of more than 1200; dormitories and classrooms<br />

are very crowded, though 100 new desks in three classrooms have been<br />

added. Chapel services are held daily for the primary students, and at least<br />

three times a week for the rest of the students.<br />

132 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Sao Paulo<br />

Two young missionaries have recently come to the assistance of our vetera<br />

missionary, Paul C. Porter, who was for many years the only field missionary in<br />

Sao Paulo, the leading industrial state of Brazil, which has a population of almost<br />

ten million. One of the new missionaries, Lester C. Bell, sums up his<br />

first year's work in Sao Paulo in this way: "During this time I have preached<br />

to more lost people, eaten more sand, and drunk more black coffee than in any<br />

other year of my experience."<br />

When Mr. Bell arrived in Presidente Prudente, center of a rapidly developing<br />

area in the southwestern part of the state, he found only two pastors among 16<br />

churches. At least one church was ready to close its doors, and the name "Baptist"<br />

was in disrepute. Realizing that the most urgent problem was lack of<br />

leadership, Mr. Bell began a vigorous campaign to interest pastors in his section<br />

and was successful in placing three young seminary men and one experienced<br />

pastor. He also was able—traveling some 10,000 miles by jeep and another<br />

5,000 miles by plane, train, and bus—to hold week-end revivals in nine churches<br />

and to visit all but one of the others. He now reports: "There seems to be a<br />

genuine spirit of revival among the churches."<br />

The other new field missionary to Sao Paulo, who is now finishing his first<br />

year's language study, is William Clinton. He is going to the northwestern<br />

section of the state where a new railroad is being built and where people are<br />

moving in by the thousands, clearing the forest, and building cities. Places that<br />

three or four years ago were nothing but wilderness are now thriving towns<br />

with 5,000 to 15,000 people.<br />

Other missionaries in the state of Sao Paulo are: T. C. Bagby, who has<br />

worked with the church he organized in Sao Vicente, and has done evangelistic<br />

work in other cities; Miss Mattie Baker, who has continued her work as state<br />

Y.W.A. leader, corresponding secretary for the Sao Paulo associational W.M.U.,<br />

and teacher of a Sunday school class of 25 young women.<br />

Parana<br />

Missionary Harvey Headrick, who has worked in the northwest part of the<br />

state of Parana for one year after finishing language school, reports: "I can<br />

already see the unlimited possibilities of this new, rich zone. At present, our<br />

area has only four organized churches with only one of these self-supporting.<br />

However, more than a dozen congregations have already been organized, and<br />

there are six or eight places where we have been invited to start work. The<br />

task takes on gigantic proportions because it is impossible to visit enough to<br />

organize the work as fast as the cities grow. That is to say nothing of developing<br />

the already established work."<br />

In Londrina, Thomas Clinkscales has served as interim pastor of seven<br />

churches, but by preaching and holding business meetings in these churches on<br />

Saturday nights as well as Sunday mornings, afternoons, and nights, he has been<br />

able to do field work on the third, fourth, and fifth Sundays. In addition, he,<br />

has served as president of the Parana Baptist Orphan's Home Board, which<br />

hopes to complete by the end of the year a building to house 50 to 75 children,<br />

and as corresponding secretary for the North Parana Association which has 20<br />

churches.<br />

Dr. A. Ben Oliver, whose training school for ministerial students in Curitiba<br />

has already demonstrated its value through providing a number of pastors for<br />

Parana churches, has spent most of this year in Rio de Janeiro working with<br />

Missionary W. E. Allen on a new translation of the New Testament which is<br />

being prepared by the Brazilian Bible Press. Substituting for Dr. Oliver in<br />

Curitiba was Albert W. Luper, former missionary in Brazil and Portugal,<br />

who is being supported for a five-year term by the First Baptist Church of<br />

Oak Cliff, in Dallas, Texas.<br />

Santa Catarina<br />

In the midst of optimistic, forward-looking reports from all the other s<br />

in South Brazil, the Santa Catarina report looks out of place. Without any<br />

missionary for many years, this state offers only needs and difficulties. Missionary<br />

A. E. Blankenship, after his first year's work there, outlines some of<br />

the only is evangelical made problems five pastors, more move, as difficult follows: excluded and by by "The indifferent more fanatical ten members weak, foreign Romanists, last struggling elements year always than churches who they ready conduct took in to the in. their obstruct state, The services<br />

in their own languages. Naturally this discourages association with Brazilians<br />

in any evangelistic effort." Mr. Blankenship says he is making every effort to<br />

lead churches and pastors to conduct services in the Portuguese language, and<br />

that he is traveling as much as the mountainous roads will permit in order to<br />

strengthen the churches and open new preaching points. Without more missionaries<br />

and national workers to help in the state, he feels that progress will<br />

be extremely slow.<br />

Rio Grande do Sui<br />

Though Dan Sharpley, field missionary, was able to report "steady and<br />

thorough" growth in his two-and-one-half-year-old church in the interior city of<br />

Santa Maria and in the preaching points he has maintained during the year,<br />

his annual report consisted mainly in outlining "what remains yet to be attempted"<br />

in the state of Rio Grande do Sui. He said that though organized<br />

Baptist work has been known in the state for sixty years, it has, until recently,<br />

been largely limited to three coastal cities and the northwestern corner of the<br />

state. "There are 3,000,000 people in the state who have no opportunity of<br />

hearing the Baptist message except by radio," he declared. "In 72 out of 92<br />

counties there is no Baptist work whatever." Among the cities of Rio Grande<br />

which have no Baptist work of any kind, there are 12 with a population of<br />

10,000 or more. Six of these have a population of more than 20,000. There are<br />

eleven cities of 5,000 to 10,000 population with no Baptist work, and 21 cities of<br />

3,000 to 5,000. "Though the prospects of reaching these people are few, they are<br />

encouraging," said Mr. Sharpley. "We expect at least two new pastors to begin<br />

work in our state by the end of this year. More encouraging yet is the fact<br />

that we now have fourteen young volunteers for Christian service. These<br />

fourteen are our greatest hope." Mr. Sharpley said four new missionary<br />

couples are needed in the state.<br />

The Baptist school (grade and high school) in Porto Alegre, under the direction<br />

of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Bagby and Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Harrison, celebrated<br />

its twenty-fifth anniversary last year and completed its new covered, open-air<br />

stadium, which was made possible by Lottie Moon offerings. The stadium, in<br />

addition to being used for sports activities, one of which was the National<br />

Brazilian Volley Ball Tournament, is to be used for evangelistic rallys, graduation<br />

exercises, etc. Mrs. Harrison reports that the Bible is taught in all grades<br />

during the week, and that every department has at least three chapel services<br />

a week. The school matriculated around 600 students last year.<br />

Nationwide Agencies<br />

Atlas News Service<br />

Helping to make evangelical Christianity known to the masses of Brazilian<br />

people through the press, the radio, and gospel recordings is the Atlas News<br />

Service, publicity organization of the South Brazil Mission. Head of this department<br />

is Missionary W. H. Berry. He reports that the daily radio program<br />

of the ANS, "The World in Review," was moved to the most powerful radio<br />

station in Brazil on May 1. "The program consisting of international evangelical<br />

news, features, and commentaries, promotes the sale of Bibles and other literature<br />

of the Baptist Publishing House and aids all other denominational interests,"<br />

Dr. Berry said.<br />

Missionary Gene Wise, in charge of the journalistic work, reports that weekly<br />

editions of international evangelical news are being sent to 300 of the major<br />

newspapers in Brazil. Through a clipping service, and through questionnaires,<br />

he has found that many secular newspapers publish these evangelical news items.<br />

He says the denominational press of Brazil also makes wide use of his news<br />

items. Mr. Wise prepares a feature column for the national Brazilian Baptist<br />

paper, in which he gives outstanding Christian testimonies, and sends news of<br />

Baptist work in Brazil to denominational papers in the United States.<br />

The Atlas News Service sold approximately 18,000 gospel records last year,<br />

according to Edward Berry, son of Missionary W. H. Berry, who is in charge of<br />

the recording work. He made 23 new records last year, bringing the total<br />

number on sale to 87. These records, distributed in all of Brazil, are used on<br />

radio programs, church loud-speaker programs, and in open-air evangelistic<br />

meetings.<br />

The Sunday School Board<br />

The Baptist Sunday School Board of the Brazilian Baptist Convention is a<br />

large and complex organization serving all the Baptist churches in Brazil. Mis-


134 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

sionary Edgar Hallock served as interim director last year, in the absence oi<br />

Missionary T. B. Stover, who was on furlough. f .••<br />

The Baptist Publishing House passed through a financial crisis due to the<br />

inflationary wave which increased office salaries 45 per cent in two years, and<br />

more than doubled the cost of printing books. However, with the generous help<br />

of the Southern Baptist Foreign Mission Board the crisis was weathered so<br />

that production was not held up. The Publishing House printed last year:<br />

169,363 books and Bibles; 1,674,335 tracts; 570,900 quarterlies; and 358,250<br />

copies of the national Brazilian Baptist paper, O Jornal Batista.<br />

The Sunday school department reported that 120 churches conducted study<br />

courses last year, with 1,831 students completing the course. Missionary James<br />

Garrett, interim director of this department, said that two new teachers' quarterlies<br />

are being prepared, and special lessons written on stewardship, doctrines,<br />

evangelism, etc. Vacation Bible school enrolled 5,128 children last year.<br />

The Royal Ambassador department, under the direction of Missionary Alvin<br />

Hatton, completed its first year of work, reporting 30 R.A. chapters. A magazine<br />

for boys, O Embaixador, was printed quarterly, and Mr. Hatton visited churches<br />

in 12 states to describe the work of this new department and to lay the ground<br />

work for the organization of new chapters. He also directed two R.A. camp's.<br />

Missionary J. J. Cowsert, director of the publicity department and director<br />

of production of the Publishing House, aided in all of the work mentioned above,<br />

as did Missionary Samuel Quails, assistant treasurer of the Mission, and Missionaries<br />

Virginia Terry and Lois Roberts.<br />

Brazilian Bible Press<br />

In an effort to speed work on a new translation of the New Testament being<br />

prepared by this organization, Missionary A. Ben Oliver, assistant editor, moved<br />

to Rio de Janeiro where he could work regularly with the general editor, Missionary<br />

W. E. Allen. Dr. Allen reports: "The Gospels have been checked over<br />

again, and we are pushing on through the remainder of the New Testament."<br />

Thanks to the Bible Day contributions of Baptist churches all over Brazil, the<br />

Bible Press was able to sell around 6,000 Bibles at 30 cents each, much below the<br />

cost of production. During the year an additional 14,000 Bibles and 5,727 New<br />

Testaments were sold. "We could sell many more than this if we could create a<br />

constant stock so that we could advertise our Bibles," said Mr. J. J. Cowsert,<br />

executive secretary. "Our greatest need at present is for a larger capital so<br />

that we might print more Bibles at one time rather than having to wait until<br />

one printing is sold out before we can print another." Fifty thousand Bibles<br />

were printed last year and work started on another 50,000.<br />

South Brazil Theological Seminary<br />

Perhaps the truest indication of the progress being made by the theological<br />

seminary is the addition of six new teachers to the staff, bringing the total<br />

number to 15. One missionary, Dr. A. Ben Oliver, was among the new professors<br />

who began their work in 1952. Others missionaries teaching in the<br />

seminary are: A. R. Crabtree, president, W. E. Allen, and Robert Bratcher.<br />

Sixty students were enrolled in the regular course last year, and an additional<br />

18 took the night course offered for the first time. Work on a new administration<br />

and class building is scheduled for completion early in 1953.<br />

The seminary extension course, directed by Missionary John L. Riffey,<br />

established two new centers of work last year, one in Ponta Pora, Mato Grosso,<br />

and the other in Campinas, Sao Paulo. Dr. Riffey reports that 102 students<br />

were enrolled last year. Of these, 20 are active pastors. During the thirteen<br />

years the extension course has been functioning, 85 students have completed the<br />

five years of work. Of these, 61 are pastors in South Brazil.<br />

Home Mission Board<br />

Highlight of Secretary L. M. Bratcher's work last year was the dedication of<br />

a new church constructed by the Brazilian Home Mission Board, the "Tabernaculo<br />

provide part Batista" and vear evangelists, missionaries Eighteen at of bringing the New the in same the 19 Board's serve new Testaments the teachers, Marituba time missionaries in total program the 15 states 3 to saddest Leper for itinerant 134. all of were and Colony meeting the literature Of territories, workers, appointed lepers these, in that Belem, distribution, there in 5 I by nurses, Brazil. most have Para. the are of ever Home 23 and them "This Mr. attended," pastors 18 Mission being Bratcher colporteurs. was and located the he Board wives, said. hopes happiest in These last As 15 to the

vast, backward interior region called the sertao. Three dispensaries and an<br />

orphan's home are also supported by the Home Mission Board.<br />

According to Miss Letha Saunders, promotional secretary, the following<br />

literature was distributed last year: 705 tracts, 307,000 Bibles and Gospels, 15,000<br />

magazines, 13,000 copies of sermons preached on the Board's radio program,<br />

400 books, and 2,000 "learn to read" booklets.<br />

Woman's Missionary Union<br />

The W.M.U. field worker for all of Brazil, Missionary Sophia Nichols, has<br />

probably set an all-time record in missionary traveling. She reported at the<br />

annual Mission meeting: "Five years ago today I received a letter from Dr. Gill<br />

advising me of my appointment to Brazil. Immediately, I began studying maps<br />

and making trips over Brazil on the magic carpet. Today, five years later, every<br />

state on my little map of Brazil has at least one mark indicating my visit<br />

there." Last year Miss Nichols visited 83 churches in 15 states. She made<br />

146 talks about W.M.U. work and directed 19 study courses.<br />

Miss Minnie Landrum, corresponding secretary-treasurer of the Brazilian<br />

W.M.U., reported that there are now 721 societies, 217 Y.W.A.'s, 60 G.A.'s, and<br />

533 Sunbeam Bands in the country with a total membership of approximately<br />

35,000. "These societies reported having raised 23,000 cruzeiros last year,"<br />

she said. The Anna Bagby Memorial Fund, set up by Brazilian women in honor<br />

of Missionary Anna Bagby, reached its goal of $3,500 last year. This fund is<br />

being used to provide scholarships for Training School girls.<br />

Miss Minnie Lou Lanier is in charge of G.A. work in Brazil. She presented<br />

a special program at the annual meeting of the Brazilian W.M.U. in Recife,<br />

reporting that 16 new G.A.'s were organized last year.<br />

The W.M.U. Training School<br />

According to Missionary Dorine Hawkins, director of the Training School,<br />

the 41 girls in the school this year are, in addition to their class work, ministering<br />

to more than 3,000 people a week in the city of Rio de Janeiro. "Every<br />

Thursday afternoon we close the doors of the school and take the gospel to the<br />

slum districts of this huge city," she said. "We have 16 mission points, hospital<br />

work, and Girls' Auxiliary work. According to the weekly reports of the girls,<br />

we have reached an average of almost one thousand children per week with the<br />

gospel flannelgraph stories and have had almost 400 children of older Junior age<br />

wanting to accept Christ as their Saviour."<br />

During its three years' existence, the school has graduated 28 young women.<br />

Seven are serving as pastors' wives, six as W.M.U. field workers, five as school<br />

teachers, one as Sunday school and Training Union field worker, and two as<br />

missionaries, three as church missionaries, and three as secretaries in religious<br />

organizations.<br />

The following missionaries teach in the Training School: Mrs. W. E. Allen,<br />

Dr. Robert Bratcher, Mrs. L. M. Bratcher, Sr., Dr. W. C. Taylor, Miss Edith<br />

West, Miss Lois Roberts, Mrs. J. J. Cowsert and Mrs. Alvin Hatton.<br />

Other Work<br />

Dr. W. C. Taylor, who teaches in the Rio Training School, reports a fruitful<br />

year in "bearing witness in a score of churches, in various youth retreats, in<br />

chapel addresses and sermons to youth, and in doctrinal studies in classes, chapel<br />

addresses and college groups." He completed his book on Baptist doctrines, continued<br />

his weekly column in O Jornal Batista, national Brazilian Baptist paper,<br />

and wrote for other publications.<br />

Missionary W. W. Enete, in addition to extensive evangelistic work in the<br />

SPANISH AMERICA<br />

ALL SPANISH BAPTIST PUBLISHING HOUSE<br />

Missionary Frank W. Patterson<br />

The Baptist Spanish Publishing House, located at El Paso, Texas, serves as<br />

a publishing agency for all Baptist Spanish-speaking mission fields. Literature<br />

goes regularly into 25 countries.<br />

Periodicals<br />

Seven periodicals and a teacher's quarterly supply lesson material for each<br />

Sunday school department. Oldest of these quarterlies is the Expositor Biblico,<br />

now in its sixtieth year, founded by missionaries in Mexico before a mission<br />

publishing house existed. Quarterly circulation of this publication is 29,900.<br />

Although there are approximately 45,000 Spanish-speaking Baptists on Southern<br />

Baptist Home and Foreign Mission fields, our quarterly distribution of Sunday<br />

school periodicals exceeds 90,000. This is because other Baptist groups and many<br />

churches of other denominations use our literature.<br />

Training Union quarterlies are provided for the Story Hour, and for the<br />

Junior, Intermediate, Young People's, and Adult unions. El Promotor de ZEducacion<br />

Cristiana promotes the work of both the Sunday school and Training<br />

Union. Revista Evangelica, a monthly magazine, helps promote fellowship<br />

among the Latin American Baptist conventions, strengthens our churches doctrinally,<br />

and provides homiletic material for pastors. Quarterlies and monthlies<br />

published in 1952 totaled 514,600.<br />

Books<br />

In 1952 a total of 72,400 copies of 27 book titles were published. Fifteen of<br />

these were reprints and 12 were first editions. In addition, 6,500 copies of four<br />

booklets providing materials for special occasions were printed. Our 1953 general<br />

catalog describes 230 books published in Spanish by this institution.<br />

Tracts<br />

An annual appropriation from the Lottie Moon Offering makes free tract<br />

distribution possible. This year 1,685,000 two-color tracts—12 titles—were<br />

printed. Inquiries from many lands arrive almost daily, asking further light on<br />

how to be saved, or professing faith and asking further instruction. Each letter<br />

is analyzed, answered, and materials sent accordingly.<br />

Church Supplies<br />

Record materials, offering envelopes, choral music, maps, Vacation Bible<br />

school materials, Standards of Excellence, certificates, study course diplomas,<br />

etc., are provided.<br />

Personnel<br />

Eight missionaries and 27 employees are responsible for writing, editing,<br />

printing, binding, and distributing literature and supplies. Rev. and Mrs. Frank<br />

W. Patterson, Dr. and Mrs. C. O. Gillis, and Mrs. N. H. Eudaly are missionaries<br />

given to editorial work. Rev. N. H. Eudaly is business manager. Rev. and Mrs.<br />

J. W. McGavock, while on furlough in South America, have visited book stores<br />

and represented the Publishing House at denominational meetings. They will<br />

retire at the close of their furlough year. The Eudalys succeed the McGavocks,<br />

but replacements are urgently needed to fill the vacancy left by Rev. and Mrs.<br />

Hiram Duffer, who have transferred to the Baptist Seminary in Torreon, Mexico.<br />

Progress<br />

A small chapel has been furnished and weekly devotional services instituted<br />

at the publishing house. Although attendance of employees is voluntary, attendance<br />

has been practically 100 per cent.<br />

Net assets of the Publishing House as of April 30, 1952, were $201,927.61,<br />

exclusive of the building which is also property of the Foreign Mission Board.<br />

The net worth has tripled during the past ten years. With additional personnel,<br />

we could increase production 30 per cent with present equipment.<br />

Those desiring a folder giving additional information about the Baptist<br />

Spanish Publishing House, should direct their requests to Box 1648, El Paso,<br />

Texas.

FOREIGN MISSION BOARD 137<br />

A TRIP THROUGH MEXICO<br />

Let's take a trip through Mexico to see what Southern Baptists are doing.<br />

We'll start in the northwest and end in the southernmost mission section.<br />

Chihuahua<br />

Student Home<br />

The Baptist Student Home in Chihuahua is "a home away from home" where<br />

boys and girls enrolled in the public schools may live and have Christian training.<br />

This year Mr. and Mrs. J. Wilson Ross have been in charge of the Home while<br />

Mr. and Mrs. A. P. Pierson were on furlough. Miss Katherine Skinner supervises<br />

the work of the girls. Mr. Ross reported a total enrolment of 32 boys<br />

and girls from five states. The Home was filled to capacity, and many were<br />

turned away because of lack of space. An adequate building constructed expressly<br />

for this purpose is needed.<br />

Northwest Field<br />

A million and a half people live in the area that comprises the Northwest<br />

Field, under the supervision of Mr. Ross this year. The work among so many<br />

is overwhelming for the seven ordained and three unordained pastors who<br />

serve there. More workers are needed, for many "isms" are multiplying in the<br />

land and threaten the ground that has been gained.<br />

An institute for the Woman's Missionary Union of the state of Sonora and<br />

ten Vacation Bible schools were held on the field, with an average attendance of<br />

48 for each. It is encouraging to see a people who have had a sense of incapacity<br />

and financial dependence reaching out to serve unchurched communities.<br />

Torreon<br />

Baptist Seminary<br />

Because the Baptist seminary is located in Torreon, several missionary families<br />

live there. Teaching in the seminary, which fills a real need for Mexico, are<br />

five missionaries—J. D. Crane, president, Miss Viola Campbell, A. C. Muller,<br />

Hiram F. Duffer, Jr., and Cecil Johnson—and four nationals. Mr. and Mrs.<br />

Crane have charge of the boys' dormitory; Miss Campbell is supervisor for the<br />

girls' dormitory. Most of the men handle field work or other mission work along<br />

with teaching. The women carry their household responsibilities and work in<br />

the local churches. This year, construction is beginning on new buildings for<br />

the seminary, a dream for a long time. Classes are still meeting in the First<br />

Baptist Church building in the center of town; and the boys use a lot of valuable<br />

time going from their dormitory to the church for classes and to the girls'<br />

dormitory to eat. By next year the new classroom building will be completed.


138 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Because the laws of Mexico require that a school of this sort be held in a church,<br />

the new building will be used also as a church until a church building can be<br />

added.<br />

North-Central Field<br />

Missionary Muller, president of our Mission, is the field worker for th<br />

Central area, traveling when necessary from Torreon to the churches and outstations<br />

throughout the territory. The North-Central Field includes the coastal<br />

state of Sinaloa (the Ebenezer Baptist Association) and the mountain states of<br />

Zacatecas and Durango and parts of Coahuila and Jalisco (the North-Central<br />

Baptist Association). All of these states are rich in mineral and agricultural<br />

resources. Five years ago only one of the then eleven churches in the territory<br />

of the two associations was self-supporting. Since then, four new churches<br />

have been organized, and we now have five self-supporting churches located<br />

in Torreon, Gomez Palacio, Durango, Mazatlan and Culiacan. The achieving<br />

of this goal of self-support has not only changed the outlook of these churches,<br />

it has also stimulated throughout the area a greater interest in missionary expansion.<br />

Whereas the financial and administrative responsibility for this work<br />

formerly rested on the shoulders of the missionaries and the Mission Board, the<br />

national churches now share substantially in bearing this burden, thereby gaining<br />

needed experience and receiving the blessing that can come only through<br />

active and direct participation in mission work.<br />

In the North-Central Association, Mexican Baptists are realizing what it<br />

means to work "both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria," as they are<br />

beginning relatively new work and helping weaker churches. A new building<br />

is going up at the Torreon church's Oreb (Horeb) mission, which we trust will<br />

grow into a church soon. Two men—Antonio Pedroza, whom God has blessed in<br />

his machine shop business, and Pedro Ibarra, Jr., of the Torreon church, who<br />

offered the Lord the income from a piece of cotton land if he blessed it with a<br />

good crop—gave enough money for the Gomez Palacio church to buy a station<br />

wagon for use in the mission work. The pastor and church members have gone<br />

on evangelistic trips to Miguel, Auza, Zacatecas, out on a high plateau five hours<br />

away from Gomez Palacio by car. Twenty-three new believers have been baptized<br />

within the last year. At Guadalupe Rogriguez 13 new members were also<br />

baptized, and seven more are soon to be received.<br />

In the Ebenezer Association, a large new property sufficient for present needs<br />

has been purchased at Escuinapa. The church in Mazatlan is helping this sister<br />

church. For the national Baptist convention last year, the Mazatlan church,<br />

without any outside aid, enlarged its auditorium to almost double its size. It<br />

is evident that this spontaneous emphasis on missionary expansion is vitally<br />

linked with the understanding, assurance, and sense of responsibility that comes<br />

to the churches when they become self-supporting.<br />

Coahuila Field<br />

When Mr. and Mrs. Pierson returned to Chihuahua after furlough, Mr. and<br />

Mrs. Ross, who had replaced them there, went to the Coahuila Field to take the<br />

place of Mr. and Mrs. Hoyt Eudaly, who were transferred to the Publishing<br />

House in El Paso. Mrs. Ross is secretary of our Mission. One of the highlights<br />

of our work on the Coahuila Field was a simultaneous evangelistic campaign<br />

in which eight of the ten churches co-operated. Visible results were 150 professions<br />

of faith. Also, attempts were made to have extensive religious education<br />

campaigns, as there is a great need for developing leadership within our<br />

churches. Another highlight was the dedication of a new church building in<br />

Ciudad Acuna. Two evangelistic campaigns there resulted in 113 professions of<br />

faith and 18 baptisms. A parsonage has been bought in Acuna; one almost<br />

completed in Piedras Negras; another partially built in Morelos; another begun<br />

in Terminal; and one repaired in Muzquiz.<br />

Guadalajara<br />

Our medical mission work is located in Guadalajara in a 16-room building<br />

belonging to a Mexican evangelical doctor who became the associate of our<br />

missionary doctor, E. Lamar Cole. Careful, attentive treatment of the patients<br />

has revealed evangelical Christianity to them in a new light. Having despised<br />

us, they have learned to love us. This was brought out by the statement of one<br />

mother night my who husband has seen and two I went of her to children the revival saved services, from the he grip for the of first typhoid, and "Last I for


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD 139<br />

the third time. We were thrilled over the beautiful explanations, and he promised<br />

to take me again tonight."<br />

The clinic has made good use of a hydraulic operating table contributed by<br />

friends in Texas. Seventeen deliveries and 65 major operations were performed<br />

during the year. A total of 1,304 patients were treated.<br />

Student Homes<br />

In Guadalajara, where there are many fine schools, we maintain two more<br />

student homes, one for boys and one for girls. Miss Miriam McCullough has<br />

charge of the 16 girls enrolled this year, Mr. Wyatt W. Lee, a new missionary,<br />

will be in Guadalajara soon to have charge of the boys and of the city mission<br />

work. A change has been made in the locations of both homes, providing much<br />

better accommodations for the students and the missionaries. Writes Miss Mc­<br />

Cullough: "With three dresses in her straw bag, Enriqueta came from the state<br />

of Guerrero with its mud-floor huts because there was no grammar school near<br />

her home. On the other hand, a veritable fashion-plate was Altagracia when she<br />

arrived from the city of Juarez to study dentistry. Their 'sisters' have come<br />

from all walks of life to live as one big happy family in your Baptist Student<br />

Home for girls while they attend public schools in this city. Our former students<br />

are missionaries within their chosen professions and we have like hopes for our<br />

future teacher, doctor, artist, and others who are yet in high school and grammar<br />

school. The girls are being trained in the local church and are active in its<br />

missionary work."<br />

South Field<br />

Mr. Orvil Reid, missionary for the South Field and supervisor of the printing<br />

shop in Guadalajara, is on furlough, and Mr. W. M. Haverfield who, with Mrs.<br />

Haverfield, has been transferred to the Mexican Mission, has charge of his work.<br />

Mr. Haverfield reports that the four self-supporting churches, the six organized<br />

churches, the two organized missions, and the three unorganized missions on<br />

the South Field have a good spirit of evangelism. Because of fanaticism, it is<br />

difficult to work in the "open" in some places. Consequently, the pastors emphasize<br />

personal work more than any other phase of their ministry. Two workers'<br />

conferences a year are planned to help the pastors work out the development<br />

problems they are having in their churches. These conferences, together with<br />

the pastoral institutes held at a different time, will afford inspiration, education,<br />

and fellowship for the pastors. Every church and mission is expected to<br />

contribute at least 45 pesos monthly toward the pastor's salary. All are encouraged<br />

to gradually increase their giving until the goal of self-support is<br />

reached. New construction is in progress at La Huacana, Michoacan, and property<br />

has been purchased in Salamanca, Guanajuato. The pastor has moved into<br />

the house on the Salamanca property and holds services in his home.<br />

Looking Forward<br />

A needed division is to be made in the field work of the Mexican Mission,<br />

and we are grateful to the Lord for the additional workers who make it possible.<br />

Four new missionaries were appointed for Mexico in 1952. Mr. and Mrs. Roy L.<br />

Lyon will live in Torreon while engaged in language study. Mr. and Mrs. E. E.<br />

Hasty, in the Costa Rica language school this year, will arrive in Mexico in 1953.<br />

We are also looking forward to the completion of the new building for the<br />

seminary. Our prayer is for greater and more effective work in Mexico for the<br />

extension of Christ's kingdom.<br />

ARGENTINA SEMICIRCLE<br />

Missionary Frances Scott Watson<br />

Buenos Aires, the capital city of Argentina, dominates the commerce, culture,<br />

and industry of the republic and is a natural center for our Baptist work. Onethird<br />

of Argentina's 17,000,000 people live in or very near the great metropolis,<br />

which is called the "New York" of South America, and it is the center of a<br />

semicircular system of railroads which carry us to the interior and to our mission<br />

stations. This semicircle, with a radius of 700 miles, includes less than 50 per<br />

cent of the total area of Argentina, but because 90 per cent of the nation's population<br />

is concentrated there, almost all Southern Baptist mission work falls within<br />

that area.


140 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Buenos Aires<br />

Missionary E. S. Swenson, who directs the Publication Board, reports the<br />

publication of 14 books this year—also, 600,000 tracts, 35,000 posters, and the<br />

distribution of 250,000 Gospels as a contribution to the evangelistic campaign<br />

directed by Mr. C. Y. Dossey in 1951. The Baptist Expositor, official publication<br />

of the Argentine Baptist Convention, has a circulation of 2,100 in spite of soaring<br />

prices, while Paths of Light, a Sunday school leaflet edited by Miss Minnie<br />

Mcllroy, has reached the mark of 9,200 copies per week.<br />

Construction is nearing completion on a magnificent building for the international<br />

theological seminary of southern Spanish America. The men's dormitory<br />

was occupied this year in April, and classes were held in the old building;<br />

the administration building and women's dormitory will be ready for occupancy<br />

early in 1953. Seminary President W. L. Cooper reports an enrolment of 17<br />

for this year and an encouraging number of applications for next year. Missionary<br />

Judson Blair, director of practical activities, says that in spite of official<br />

restrictions they have been able to direct some street preaching, tract distribution,<br />

and personal work. Missionary S. H. Cockburn, in his first year as professor<br />

of New Testament and Greek, spends many of his week ends preaching in local<br />

churches. The seminary welcomes Dr. Cockburn and also looks forward to the<br />

return, early in 1953, of Dr. Charles Whitten and Dr. and Mrs. T. B. Hawkins<br />

from their furloughs and to the arrival of Dr. Hugo Culpepper who is being<br />

transferred from Chile at the end of his furlough.<br />

Miss Irene Smith conducts a well-rounded program at Fellowship House,<br />

the Goodwill Center in Avellaneda, meat-packing section of Buenos Aires. The<br />

kindergarten and Christian recreation program have established contacts with<br />

families of Jewish and Catholic background who would otherwise not have had<br />

relations with the evangelical work. Enrolment in the kindergarten has reached<br />

70, with an average attendance of 60, and many children were turned away because<br />

of lack of space.


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD 141<br />

Mr. Martin S. Blair, district missionary, has successfully used visual aids in<br />

evangelistic campaigns in the districts of West and South Buenos Aires and<br />

Cordoba. "In Banfield an estimated crowd of 800 people listened attentively to<br />

the gospel message after seeing the Bible films," Mr. Blair said. In Avellaneda<br />

even the busses stopped in order that the passengers might see the films being<br />

projected in front of the church. Attendance at Sunday school and other services<br />

has increased as a result of our use of the films. Mrs. Blair gives enthusiastic<br />

reports of the Woman's Training School graduates who serve as presidents of<br />

missionary societies, and adds, "Now the district is raising money for the support<br />

of one of its own Training School graduates who will promote the children's<br />

work in the local churches."<br />

Rosario<br />

In the heart of the province of Santa Fe, and 200 miles up the Parana River<br />

from Buenos Aires, is Argentina's second largest city and our second largest<br />

mission station—Rosario. It has perhaps the most active association of churches<br />

in the Argentine republic. Of the 16 churches in the association, only two receive<br />

help for pastoral support; the others receive only hall rent for their mission<br />

points. The W.M.U. work, which is growing in size and activity, places great<br />

stress on the young people's organizations. "Rosarinos" are grateful for a new<br />

camp site made possible by the Lottie Moon Offering. First encampments on this<br />

new property will begin in February. Evangelistic fervor, better organized since<br />

the simultaneous crusade by Mr. Dossey last year, continues in the heart of the<br />

churches. Professions of faith numbered 299 in a similar campaign this year,<br />

Mr. James 0. Watson, field missionary, says that, with the right kind of program<br />

the work in Rosario could easily be doubled in the next ten years.<br />

Activities of the Woman's Training School during its last days in Rosario,<br />

testified to its contribution to the Baptist work in and around the city. Various<br />

organizations expressed their sincere gratitude for the school—which they think<br />

of as their own child—and their prayerful interest that it be a blessing to the<br />

people in Buenos Aires as it becomes the woman's division of the international<br />

seminary in 1953. The Training School is under the capable direction of Mrs.<br />

Anne Margrett, daughter of Argentina's pioneer missionary, S. M. Sowell. They<br />

are affectionately called Mamita (little mother) and Abuelito (little grandfather)<br />

by the students. Because they form the link between the beginnings of<br />

Baptist work in Argentina and the present, they have a special entree into the<br />

churches and hearts of the Argentines, thus opening many doors of service.<br />

Miss Helen Nixon, who teaches in the Training School, also offers Bible<br />

classes in the local churches each week. Response in these classes has demonstrated<br />

a hunger for a more profound knowledge of the Word of God. Miss<br />

Nixon has also organized a Y.W.A. in South District Church, completing a fully<br />

graded W.M.U. in the church.<br />

Miss Sara Taylor of Friendship House reports: "We are working with<br />

approximately 60 families through this Good Will Center. Bible studies held in<br />

connection with girls' sewing and English classes and the Mothers' Club open<br />

the way for the evangelization of adults. Already, several of our kindergarten<br />

children have become members of a nearby church." Miss Taylor serves as<br />

superintendent of the Sunday school of Etchesortu Church where she is a member.<br />

Entre Rios—North Santa Fe<br />

Farther up the river is Parana, capital city of the province of Entre Rios.<br />

Mr. and Mrs. Fay Askew are our missionaries for this province and also for<br />

North Santa Fe. Through the generosity of the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering,<br />

some of the 14 churches in the area will have new chapels soon. Mr. Askew<br />

has rendered invaluable service in this area through the use of audio-visual aid<br />

equipment, a phase of his work which has been continued by his assistant while<br />

the Askew family was on furlough.<br />

North Argentina<br />

Farther up the Parana River are the Argentine tropics. In the Territories of<br />

Misiones, Corrientes, Formosa, and Chaco are scattered churches which co-operate<br />

with the Association of Baptist Churches in Paraguay. Missionary Sydney Goldfinch<br />

crosses the Paraguay River from Asuncion to encourage the work in


142 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Formosa and "the Chaco," while Missionary W. E. Craighead has two stations—<br />

one in Encarnacion, Paraguay, and one across the Parana River in Posadas,<br />

Argentina. He is laying an excellent foundation for work among the Russian<br />

population in this section. During his furlough, Mr. and Mrs. Tom Hollingsworth<br />

will oversee the work.<br />

Cordoba<br />

At the geographical center of Argentina, is Cordoba, the nation's most popu<br />

lar vacation resort. The city of Cordoba has a population of 500,000, and is<br />

the home of four Baptist churches and the center for seven more in the province<br />

of Cordoba. When Mr. and Mrs. Jack Matthews arrived in the district they<br />

found little unity and fellowship among the churches. "After nine months of<br />

work and prayer," reports Mr. Matthews "God blessed our efforts, and in a public<br />

service all interested parties came together thanking the heavenly Father for<br />

his power to forgive and to inspire his children to forgive also. We are convinced<br />

that we should concentrate our efforts and most of our energy in the city<br />

of Cordoba, and that throughout the province we should major on making the<br />

existing churches strong instead of hurriedly organizing small groups of Christians<br />

into churches incapable of self-support."<br />

Tucuman<br />

An overnight trip by train from Cordoba carries a traveler north into the<br />

sugar-producing section that is called "The Sugar Bowl" of Argentina. Upon<br />

returning to that area after a year's furlough, Mr. and Mrs. Z. Paul Freeman<br />

report, "In spite of the restrictions that have come, we have found more open<br />

doors and a greater need than we have been able to meet." Serving as pastor<br />

of the church in Tucuman, Mr. Freeman and his wife are kept busy with Sunday<br />

school, W.M.U., Bible school, and other work in their own church and with activities<br />

at the mission and other preaching points.<br />

Mendoza<br />

Mr. and Mrs. Boyd Robertson arrived in Mendoza in April of this year to<br />

direct mission activities in the Cuyo district left vacant at the retirement of<br />

Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Quarles. Comprised of three provinces bordering Chile and<br />

the Andes, this association is made up of 12 churches with a combined membership<br />

of 672. They report 85 baptisms during the year. "Although this work is<br />

progressive in several respects," says Mr. Robertson, "only recently have we<br />

made a start in Training Union work. We are now forming two unions, the first<br />

fully graded ones in the republic to be organized according to the Standard of<br />

Excellence. The Woman's Missionary Union is growing steadily, and when we<br />

have ample literature we plan to begin Royal Ambassador and Girls' Auxiliary<br />

work. Already, there are a few scattered Sunbeam Bands. God is blessing the<br />

work in Cuyo and we believe that every church will report baptisms and increased<br />

gifts this year."<br />

Enrolments at the Mendoza Good Will Center reached 170 this year in sewing<br />

classes, handwork for girls of school age, English, and the kindergarten.<br />

One of the workers is Senora Luch de Schack who was won to Christ through the<br />

center, having become interested in the gospel while her son was attending<br />

kindergarten. She teaches the sewing class. Missionary Vada Waldron gives<br />

most of her time to the Goodwill Center, although she is also active in the Godoy<br />

Cruz church.<br />

Bahia Blanca<br />

An overnight trip from Buenos Aires carries Mr. Swenson to the Bahia<br />

Blanca district of five churches. The annual Young Peoples' meeting was an<br />

unusual success with about 200 representatives attending from 73 centers in the<br />

interior. As a result of similar meetings, three young men are in the seminary<br />

and a young lady is in the training school. One of our seminary graduates is<br />

doing a splendid work in Punta Alta, reporting many baptisms this year. In the<br />

important center of Coronel Pringles, several have been baptized into the fellowship<br />

of the church, but because the exodus of members keeps pace with<br />

those who are added, no special increase in membership has resulted. This is a<br />

typical country church problem.


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD 143<br />

Rio Negro-Neuquen<br />

Along the railroad line from Bahia Blanca to Zapala on the border of Chile<br />

located the churches of the Rio Negro-Neuquen district. Mr. and Mrs. George<br />

A. Bowdler, Sr., report, "We wish to especially acknowledge the Lottie Moon<br />

Offering which made building improvements possible in Neuquen, Cipolletti,<br />

and Zapala. The better buildings aroused a Roman Catholic campaign of villifying<br />

propaganda against us, but in spite of it our churches and outstations are<br />

growing in numbers and strength. Our major need continues to be pastors and<br />

preachers, ordained or lay. Our people are becoming more missionary-minded<br />

and more ready to undertake added responsibilities."<br />

Visitors<br />

A highlight event of our year was the visit this year of Dr. W. L. Howse, an<br />

Mr. Ernest Loessner of Texas who held the first Sunday School Enlargement<br />

Campaign in Argentina. Their efforts have been invaluable in their influence and<br />

far-reaching aims.<br />

Missionary J. Frank Mitchell<br />

DEEPENING SPIRITUAL LIFE IN CHILE<br />

The "Shoestring Republic" is the adopted country of thirty missionaries<br />

located in five different centers.<br />

Antofagasta<br />

Antofagasta and the surrounding country are so isolated from the rest of<br />

Chile by the desert that they seem like a foreign country to most people in the<br />

southern part of the republic. Yet, it is a region of extreme importance to the<br />

economic and spiritual life of Chile. The Antofagasta church has been one of<br />

our most progressive, maintaining several widely scattered outstations, including<br />

Chuquicamata, Pedro de Valdivia, Mejillones, Oficina Chilex, and Copiapo. The<br />

Chuquicamata group has recently been organized as a church. Until his return<br />

to the States recently, Mr. Howard Bryant was field worker for the vast area.<br />

Mr. and Mrs. Marlin Hicks are replacing the Bryants. Miss Lois Hart is finding<br />

ample opportunity to use her talents as teacher, nurse, and evangelistic worker<br />

in the Good Will Center where she maintains a kindergarten.<br />

Valparaiso<br />

Miss Ruby J. Howse was the only missionary in the great port city of Valparaiso<br />

until September, when Mr. and Mrs. J. Ivey Miller returned to Chile<br />

after furlough. Good use has been made of the new building during the year,<br />

and the spiritual strength of the church is attested by its missionary activity in<br />

its several outstations.<br />

Santiago<br />

About one-fourth of the population of Chile lives in Santiago and the surrounding<br />

province. The challenge for evangelism is tremendous. Our churches<br />

pastors, and missionaries, few as they are in so vast a city, are striving to meet<br />

the challenge. Much progress has been made by the seven churches of the city.<br />

Several new outstations have been opened, and the older ones have been more<br />

firmly established. Missionary effort in Santiago has been strengthened by the<br />

coming of Mr. and Mrs. H. K. Middleton and Mr. and Mrs. Ruben I. Franks.<br />

Seminary-Training School<br />

This has been an exceptional year in the life of our combined Seminary and<br />

Training School. There has been a deepening of the spiritual life and a consequent<br />

increase of evangelistic fervor among the twenty-three young men and<br />

women students. Perhaps the most tangible evidence of this was a highly successful<br />

evangelistic tour made by a group of students during the July holidays.<br />

During the year, Mr. and Mrs. Franks have come to the seminary. Mr. Franks


144 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

replaces Mr. John Parker as Dean of Men, while Mr. Parker gives the major part<br />

of his time to the First Baptist Church, which is in the midst of a building<br />

program. Mr. Middleton has also accepted work on the seminary faculty, m<br />

addition to pastoral and other duties. Other missionaries working with President<br />

Honorio Espinoza on the faculty are Mrs. Franks, Mr. and Mrs. H. C. McConnell,<br />

and Miss Oleta Snell.<br />

Publications<br />

Dr. R. C. Moore, head of the publication work, has resumed his duties which<br />

were carried on during his furlough by Mr. McConnell. Books are distributed<br />

through six strategically-placed book stores. Responsibility for that phase of the<br />

publication work is to be taken over by Mr. Middleton.<br />

Chilean Baptists have three periodical publications: La Vox Bautista, official<br />

organ of the Chilean Baptist Convention, edited by Mr. Honorio Espinoza; La<br />

Ventana and La Estrella, quarterlies published by the W.M.U. of Chile.<br />

Concepcion<br />

Since Mr. and Mrs. Evan F. Holmes left for their furlough the middle of t<br />

year, missionary work in the Concepcion area has been carried by Mr. and Mrs.<br />

H. L. Hardy and Mr. and Mrs. W. P. Andrews, new missionaries. Mr. Hardy<br />

temporarily replaces Mr. Holmes as pastor of the First Baptist Church, and<br />

both he and Mr. Andrews are busy in field work in that populous district.<br />

Temuco<br />

The southern district, of which Temuco is the center, is the biggest dist<br />

in point of the number of Baptists. It also has the largest number of pastorless<br />

churches. Approximately half of our Baptist work is in this area. Yet, for three<br />

years Missionary J. Frank Mitchell has been the only field missionary in the<br />

entire region. Thanks to the consecration of the Chilean workers, many of them<br />

laymen, the gospel has been preached and many people have been won to Christ.<br />

The missionary's activities include, in addition to evangelistic meetings, the<br />

direction of the young people's camp in the summer and a Laymen's Institute<br />

(ten-day study course) for lay preachers in the winter, and also the supervision<br />

of two church building projects.<br />

W.M.U. of Chile<br />

This year, while Miss Georgia Mae Ogburn has been at home on furlough, th<br />

work of General Secretary of W.M.U. has been ably carried by Miss Roberta<br />

Ryan. Perhaps the most notable advance this year has been made in the work<br />

of the Girls' Auxiliary and the Royal Ambassadors. These organizations are<br />

young in Chile, but we are noting a remarkable rise in interest as the idea takes<br />

hold among the churches.<br />

Colegio Bautista<br />

There has been very gratifying progress in the Baptist school under the<br />

capable leadership of Mr. Timoteo Gatica, himself an alumnus of Colegio Bautista<br />

and a long-time fellow worker with Miss Agnes Graham, its founder. We feel<br />

that there has been very definite progress in the spiritual development of the<br />

student body. On their own initiative, a group of students have set up an organization<br />

similar to the Student Volunteer Movement. Several boys have manifested<br />

their decision to devote their lives to the ministry, and every girl in the<br />

dormitory has made a profession of faith.<br />

The scheduled celebration of the thirtieth anniversary of the school has been<br />

postponed because the first unit of the new building was not ready for use, and<br />

also because of the sudden death of Mrs. Elizabeth Condell Pacheco, a teacher<br />

in Colegio Bautista since its founding, a granddaughter of the late Missionary<br />

W. D. T. MacDonald, and author of Apostle of the Chilean^ Frontier. The celebration<br />

will probably be held in connection with the dedication of the new building,<br />

the Agnes Graham Memorial, next year.<br />

Missionaries now working in Colegio Bautista are Miss Cornelia Brower, Miss<br />

Marjorie Spence, and Miss Roberta Ryan. Mrs. W. Q. Maer, a former missionary<br />

has ^.ndered invaluable assistance in the work with the girls.

PARAGUAY BECOMES A SEPARATE MISSION<br />

Missionary Frances Lawrence Skinner<br />

Paraguay has been called the garden spot of South America. Flowering<br />

trees and shrubs of every hue blend into a panorama of color. The songs and<br />

bright colors of the birds are as varied as the flowers. A picturesque part of the<br />

scene are the oxcarts pulled lazily through the cobblestone streets as men sell<br />

their wares, and the women mounted on brisk little donkeys bringing fresh<br />

produce from the markets to furnish housewives with food. Mansion-like homes<br />

on the main streets of the capital city reveal the country's wealth, shared by a<br />

very small minority.<br />

In contrast to this pretty picture is the poverty on every side, much of it<br />

the result of sin buried deep in the lives of the people. Barefooted women walk<br />

through the streets bearing in their arms the fruit of their sins. Young children,<br />

abandoned by their fathers, roam the streets poorly clad and undernourished.<br />

Paraguay is a mission field in need of the gospel to change the hearts and lives<br />

of the people.<br />

The year 1952 has been significant in Baptist mission work in Paraguay,<br />

formerly a part of the River Plate Mission. With sixteen missionaries on the<br />

field and increasing problems and difficulties in travel into Argentina, the need<br />

for a separate mission was realized. On August 21, the Paraguay Baptist Mission<br />

was organized with 14 of the Paraguay missionaries present, and with Mr. and<br />

Mrs. B. W. Orrick, missionaries to Uruguay, representing the River Plate<br />

Mission.<br />

In December, Miss Ruth Porter, R.N., arrived on the field to work in the<br />

Baptist Hospital.<br />

The Churches<br />

The First Baptist Church of Asuncion, under the leadership of Missionary<br />

Sydney Goldfinch, reports 30 baptisms this year. The organization of a departmentalized<br />

Sunday school and a combination Training Union and Woman's Missionary<br />

Union are highlights of this year's work.<br />

The Ciudad Nueva Baptist Church in Asuncion became self-supporting in<br />

1950 after only four years of existence. The national pastor attributes this<br />

record to the stewardship method practiced by the church, in which every member<br />

pledges to tithe. This year a building fund was started, and more than a<br />

hundred dollars was pledged the first Sunday. The church is located in a strategic<br />

area directly in front of one of the busiest open markets in the city.<br />

The Baptist Bible Institute in Asuncion, which offers Bible courses during the<br />

year, houses ten young men students who work during the day and attend high<br />

schools and colleges at night. Among this group are some of the promising<br />

leaders of future Baptist work in Paraguay. A Baptist Book Store is also located<br />

in the institute building.<br />

In July, a three-day youth retreat was held on the Baptist hospital grounds.<br />

About 150 young people attended from all over Paraguay and parts of northern<br />

Argentina. The effects of this retreat have been seen in the lives of many young<br />

people as they rededicated themselves to the cause of the Master.<br />

Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Craighead report from the Russian center of Encarnacion<br />

that separate worship services are held in Spanish and Russian because of the<br />

two nationalities in the church. The culmination of two years' work in Posadas,<br />

a Russian center in northern Argentina, reached its height on Sunday, July 27,<br />

in the river baptism of six converts. After the return to the hall, the First<br />

Baptist Church of Posadas was born as a spiritual reminder of life conquering<br />

death and sin. The largest project of the year was the second annual Baptist<br />

Institute at the Encarnacion Baptist Center from October to December, with<br />

intensive courses in Bible, church history, choir training, methods, etc.<br />

Medical Work<br />

On December 9 the Baptist Hospital of Asuncion was inaugurated. Dr. Carlos<br />

de la Torre, medical physician and Baptist pastor from Buenos Aires, gave the<br />

inaugural address. A crowd estimated at about 2,000 stood motionless as Dr.<br />

de la Torre presented the gospel of our Christ in a simple but dignified manner<br />

and pointed out the purpose of the hospital. Dr. Everett Gill, Jr., representing<br />

the Foreign Mission Board, received the keys from the architects and opened<br />

the door to the hospital for inspection by the visitors present. Several influential


146 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

men of the city have expressed definite interest in the gospel as a result of the<br />

inauguration ceremony. The hospital will begin operation on Monday, January<br />

5, 1953.<br />

Two out-patient clinics are operating under the direction of the hospital.<br />

The six-year-old clinic in Chacarita, slum section of Asuncion, reported 4,Zb7<br />

patients this year. A new clinic in Caacupe, patron-saint city of Paraguay, was<br />

inaugurated on July 5. The need for medical treatment in this town is appalling.<br />

It is said that two or three babies die daily for lack of medical attention. One<br />

man traveled a long distance and remained a week for the opening of the clinic.<br />

Both clinics are actively engaged in evangelistic programs with Sunday school on<br />

Sunday and a prayer meeting service during the week. Many conversions have<br />

been realized as a result of the evangelistic emphasis in these clinics.<br />

As we reflect upon the past, we realize that what has been done in Paraguay<br />

was wrought by God. We praise him for his blessings. As we look to the future,<br />

we take courage in his promise that as we plant and sow, the Lord of the harvest<br />

will give the increase.<br />

URUGUAY BEGINS EDUCATIONAL WORK<br />

Missionary Mary McKee Shelton<br />

Baptist work in Uruguay has had a good year. An outstanding event was the<br />

gift of a primary school building and a church building in Conchillas, in the<br />

extreme southwest about 20 miles north of Colonia. Plans are being formulated<br />

for a firstclass, up-to-date Christian educational institution, using the present<br />

building and a hotel recently purchased. The school is being operated by the<br />

mission already, but we are searching for a better-trained and a larger faculty.<br />

The churches have progressed in self-support. A "May-month-of-Missions"<br />

financial drive served to give new enthusiasm to the churches and brought home<br />

to the people the spirit of missions. They realize they can give more than they<br />

did before. The proceeds went to home mission work.<br />

Paysandu<br />

Mr. and Mrs. J. D. McMurray are district missionaries for the Paysandu<br />

area. The churches are: Salto, where we are building a new church, Tacuarembo,<br />

Paso de los Toros, and Conchillas. The Conchillas Baptist School is being administered<br />

by Mr. McMurray until more definite arrangements can be made for<br />

the new educational work. The McMurrays returned from furlough in June.<br />

Mr. McMurray is pastor of the Paysandu church and outstations.<br />

Montevideo<br />

Mr. and Mrs. B. W. Orrick are serving for the thirty-fifth year in Montevideo.<br />

Their 24-year-old Ford takes them on busy trips from early morning<br />

till late at night. Mr. Orrick is missionary for the Montevideo area, pastor of<br />

the Pando church just northeast of Montevideo, and pastor of the Radio Norte<br />

Church in Montevideo. A young Uruguayan woman is helping with the work<br />

at Pando. The Radio Norte Church is the leading church in the country as far<br />

as giving, growth, spirit, and enthusiasm are concerned. This year two Catholic<br />

priests were converted. Baptisms have resulted from the Sunday radio preaching<br />

services.<br />

San Carlos<br />

Until June, Mr. and Mrs. Ray Shelton were working in Paysandu in the<br />

absence of the McMurrays. Since then, they have been in San Carlos, an agricultural<br />

and business center in the southeastern part of the country. A new work<br />

has been started there. Sunday school and preaching services with a full program<br />

have been set up in this center so promising for the Lord's work. They<br />

hope to start work soon in outstations around San Carlos.<br />

Among our many needs is that of more national and missionary workers.

TELLING AND TEACHING IN COSTA RICA<br />

"Go and tell" (Isa. 6:9) and "Go, and teach" (Matt. 28:19) characterize the<br />

activities of the Baptist Mission of Costa Rica for this year of 1952.<br />

Go, and Tell<br />

To tell means "to make known" or "to publish." The New Testament message<br />

of Baptists has been made known to almost every individual in Costa Rica this<br />

year. Everyone knows who the Baptists are and what their doctrinal position is.<br />

Our position has been made known through the secular press. A series of<br />

articles entitled "The Baptist Message for the World" appeared in the leading<br />

newspaper in the country. The articles were a positive statement of our Baptist<br />

position. The Roman Catholic archbishop demanded that the editor stop publishing<br />

our articles. Reminding him that in Costa Rica we have religious liberty and<br />

freedom of the press, the editor refused to stop them. This started an argument<br />

that hit the front page of every newspaper. The majority of the thinking<br />

people were on our side. After a few days, we withdrew our articles to prevent<br />

serious trouble between the archbishop and the editor. The total effect of the<br />

articles and the controversy was good. The name Baptist, linked with freedom<br />

of religion and freedom of the press, was on the front page of every newspaper<br />

in the country.<br />

Our position has been made known through Baptist publications. When we<br />

withdrew our articles from the press, we immediately published a book containing<br />

all of the articles and then advertised the book through the press. Requests<br />

for it came from every section of the country. Many are writing for more<br />

information and requesting a personal interview with one of our Christian<br />

workers. The author, Adolfo Robleto, is working day and night to keep up with<br />

correspondence about the articles. We have also published several thousand<br />

tracts and have given away hundreds of New Testaments. Seeds which will be<br />

reaped in the future have been sown in every part of the country.<br />

Go, and Teach<br />

The winning of souls is still our primary objective, and this year has been<br />

the most fruitful year of our ministry in Costa Rica. However, we have another<br />

solemn obligation in the Great Commission; that is, "teaching them to observe<br />

all things."


148 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Teaching prompted the commencement of our seminary. This year the sem -<br />

nary enrolled twenty-two students. Three students received degrees in Decemper.<br />

All of the students enrolled in the seminary have given their lives to full-time<br />

Christian service. Herein lies the future of our Baptist work. ,<br />

Teaching prompted the commencement of study courses in our churches.<br />

The teaching program of the W.M.U. and the Sunday school has been emphasized.<br />

The W.M.U. manual has been taught, and through it the ladies of our churches<br />

have come to a new appreciation of the work of W.M.U. Auxiliaries of the<br />

W.M.U. have been started with great success. The Sunday schools have found<br />

new life through studying the book, Building a Standard Sunday School.<br />

A new church building in Alajuela was built this year through the Lottie<br />

Moon Christmas Offering. With classroom space, even more emphasis can be<br />

placed on the teaching phase of our work, and with all of the organizations<br />

functioning properly, we can win more souls to Christ.<br />

We glory in the sufficiency of God's grace to supply our every need. _ He has<br />

directed our way in the past year, and we look forward to a new year with faith<br />

and trust.<br />

GUATEMALA-HONDURAS MISSION STAFF INCREASED<br />

Missionary G. A. Bowdler, Jr.<br />

Guatemala, colorful land of eternal spring, with its million and a half<br />

living in the northwest highlands, still waits for the more powerful and convincing<br />

presentation of the New Testament gospel witness that only Baptists can<br />

give. Out of nearly 3,000,000 people, scarcely 50,000 are now counted as evangelical<br />

Christians after almost 75 years of Protestant missions. Now is the hour<br />

of destiny for Baptists.<br />

With this in view we are grateful to Southern Baptists for, and are rejoicing<br />

in, the appointment of Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Hurst and Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Ratcliff<br />

to Honduras and of Mr. and Mrs. C. S. Cadwallader, Jr., to Guatemala. With the<br />

arrival of these co-workers on the field in 1953-54 a new epoch will begin in the<br />

history of Baptist missions in Central America.<br />

A vital factor in the future of the Guatemala-Honduras Baptist Convention,<br />

the Bible Institute completed its fifth session this year with the graduation of<br />

four students, the largest graduating class so far. One of the graduates, the first<br />

to complete the five-year theological course, has been called to serve in two<br />

churches in Guatemala, and the other three have returned to Honduras to reinforce<br />

the needy churches and missions there.<br />

A tribute to the faithful labor of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. <strong>Web</strong>b, the first resident<br />

Baptist missionaries to these republics, two new church buildings were completed<br />

this year and one excellent church site with a building was secured. These<br />

are located in three different zones of Guatemala, Escuintla in the south, Morales<br />

in the north, and Parramos in the west. The Escuintla church especially, is the<br />

product of Baptist giving through the Lottie Moon Offering. A small educational<br />

unit was completed by the Bethania church, Guatemala City, entirely by their<br />

own labor and gifts.<br />

Progress on a mission field should sometimes be measured by the number and<br />

quality of ordained men and the degree of self-support their churches attain.<br />

This year, the ordination of the pastor of the Indian church at Santa Catarina<br />

Barahona, near the ancient colonial capital of Antigua, brought the total of ordained<br />

pastors to seven in Guatemala and one in Honduras.<br />

Constant evangelism and gradual progress in self-support are keynotes of the<br />

work among the churches of Guatemala and Honduras. In Honduras, the churches<br />

and missions benefited greatly from a campaign conducted by Dr. Jose Maria<br />

Ruiz, formerly a Romanist priest. The Women's Auxiliary of the national convention<br />

and the Religious Education Commission are training national Christians<br />

for church leadership.<br />

Our greatest need continues to be missionaries in both republics to collaborate<br />

with the 18 churches and 83 missions scattered over a territory comparable to<br />

the states of Louisiana and Mississippi. About a third of the churches are handicapped<br />

in many respects because of the lack of sufficient missionary personnel to<br />

resell tliGm.<br />

Nevertheless, a broad foundation has been and is being laid for a great Baptist<br />

denomination in these countries. By God's grace and the all-out stewardship<br />

of a reality Southern in the Baptists years translated ahead.<br />

into an adequate missionary force, it will become

IN SPITE OF PERSECUTION IN COLOMBIA<br />

Not in many years has there been such close co-operation between the state<br />

church and the government of Colombia. The will of Roman Catholic prelates<br />

is easily recognizable in government policies and decrees. Opposition to all other<br />

groups, whether political or religious, has steadily increased during the past<br />

four years. Amidst ecclesiastic splendor—and with full government assent revealed<br />

in a colorful display of military forces—the nation recently celebrated the<br />

fiftieth anniversary of its dedication to the "Sacred Heart of Jesus." Upon the<br />

surface, it appears that the church and the government have strongly fortified<br />

their position, but this is not so.<br />

Never before in all recorded history of the evangelical movement in Colombia<br />

has there been such a rising tide of spiritual blessing. And this in the face of<br />

relentless and diabolical persecution! In my possession I have almost one hundred<br />

pages, closely typed, of reported and carefully investigated cases of persecution.<br />

Many church buildings have been destroyed, some by dynamiting, others by<br />

burning. Many evangelical Christians have suffered loss of properties, physical<br />

violence, and death.<br />

Scattered believers have spread their testimony. New groups are meeting in<br />

regions where the gospel was previously unknown. Baptist churches, principally<br />

those in the mountainous interior, are having to cope with congregations much<br />

larger than the capacity of their buildings. Spiritual hunger is most evident.<br />

Five Vacation Bible schools enrolled 507 pupils; hundreds of people have confessed<br />

faith in Christ; church membership has increased, new mission centers<br />

have been opened, and our whole Baptist testimony has been greatly strengthened.<br />

In a real sense, we are reaping a harvest today because years ago Baptist<br />

publications found their way into Colombia, thus preparing the way for our<br />

missionaries. Convinced of our scriptural position, people are persistently requesting<br />

us to send in workers.<br />

Southern Baptists have more than a superficial work in Colombia. It has gone<br />

deep into the lives of hundreds of people, is claiming the attention of thousands,<br />

and is destined to produce scores of progressive New Testament churches in the<br />

future. We are convinced that the Lord is challenging us to attempt great things<br />

for him, and to expect great things from him. By faith we cry "It shall be done!"


150 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Barranquilla<br />

Known to be Colombia's most "Liberal" city, Barranquilla has continued to<br />

enjoy true democracy during the past four years of relentless and bitter PoW} cal<br />

and religious strife. However, it has not altogether escaped the rod of affliction.<br />

A severe economic crisis has resulted in many thousands of people losing their<br />

jobs. Poverty is most pronounced; crime is on the uptrend.<br />

What are Baptists doing ? A most convincing consolidation of their efforts is<br />

evident in all four churches. We have achieved an average Sunday-school attendance<br />

of 240, and all other organizations are steadily advancing in attendance.<br />

Evangelism is reaching and claiming hundreds. Churches, too, are developing<br />

spiritually, and new leadership is coming to the fore. A W.M.U. training institute<br />

with 35 women attending gave pleasing results. Missionaries and national<br />

pastors comprised the teaching and administrative staffs.<br />

We have suffered the severe loss of our Baptist Half-Hour radio program,<br />

due to the state church's pressure on the owner of the station. Thousands of<br />

people within a radius of 250 miles are now without our message. We were the<br />

last of evangelical Christians in Colombia to be put off the air.<br />

Baptist Hospital<br />

Construction on the hospital, though unfinished, is slowly advancing. Not<br />

quite half of the planned buildings are in operation, but achievements are almost<br />

miraculous. About 6,500 outpatients received treatment in one year. Some are<br />

waiting in line at 4 o'clock in the morning in order to be treated. We prayerfully<br />

trust that Missionary George Kollmar within a few weeks may have his license<br />

to practice medicine in Colombia. At present he is serving as administrator. Dr.<br />

Roy C. McGlamery is serving nobly with the assistance of two Colombian medical<br />

interns. Our hospital, together with our four churches, give Baptists a powerful<br />

testimony in Barranquilla.<br />

Cartagena<br />

Cartagena is a historic gem of the Spanish colonial period and the only sur<br />

viving walled city in the New World. Catholicism remained snugly secure during<br />

four centuries, trusting implicitly in the denfenses of old Spanish tradition. But<br />

her defenses have been breached! Baptists are winning a battle for the Lord;<br />

we are reclaiming blood-bought souls for our mighty Redeemer.<br />

Every Sunday morning approximately 500 people gather for worship in our<br />

two churches in Cartagena. Under the leadership of Missionary Zach Deal and<br />

two national Baptist pastors, aggressive and successful campaigns are going<br />

forward. Both churches have mission centers (outstations) strategically located<br />

and are winning many to Christ. Visitation teams cover the city; daily prayer<br />

groups assail the Throne of Mercy, and no opportunity is lost to spread the<br />

message.<br />

Fifty-five miles southeast of Cartagena, in the town of Maria la Baja, ano<br />

Baptist church was organized. Its growth is pleasing and promises well for the<br />

surrounding agricultural populations. The outstation of Quebrada Honda, 250<br />

miles south of Cartagena, continues to bear a fruitful ministry in spite of opposition.<br />

San Andres Island<br />

Our "loneliest" missionaries live on the island of San Andres, 450 miles du<br />

west of Cartagena, across the blue and often troubled waters of the Caribbean<br />

Sea. The arrival of Rev. and Mrs. C. W. McCullough from furlough aboard<br />

the Dorcas was widely proclaimed. This, the only deep-sea launch owned by<br />

Southern Baptists, is already proving to be an invaluable help. It enables our<br />

missionaries to widen their ministry to include surrounding islands. The ministry<br />

of Mr. and Mrs. James Hatley was most successful during the McCulloughs'<br />

furlough.<br />

A severe trial has hit the islanders, and consequently hindered plans for<br />

advance; their one crop, coconuts, is blighted. This is a matter of deepest<br />

concern.


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD 151<br />

Cali<br />

Probably Colombia's fastest-growing city outside of Bogota, Cali's streets<br />

are thronged with people and traffic blocks its highways. Baptists chose wisely<br />

when they made it their first station in the western interior of the republic.<br />

Expansion of Baptist work has been remarkable in both attendance and finance.<br />

During the past year the meeting place has been totally inadequate; often 275<br />

to 300 people crowd into a reconditioned colonial-type house. The First Baptist<br />

Church will move into its new three-story educational building in January of<br />

1953. Also, a new page of Baptist history will be written with the opening of<br />

the international seminary for northern Spanish America early in 1953. The<br />

seminary will occupy the top floor of the educational building. The church has<br />

called as pastor, Hugo Ruiz, the first of our Colombian Baptist young people to<br />

enter the ministry.<br />

Outstations<br />

Bitter clerical opposition has completely failed to wipe out the gospel testimony<br />

in Palmira, an outstation 30 miles east of Cali. Within a few days of the<br />

dynamiting of two evangelical Christian meeting places in this city, Baptists<br />

there organized themselves into a church with 13 charter members. This is a<br />

church born in the fires of persecution!<br />

Baptists are finding excellent opportunities to evangelize in Armenia, an<br />

outstation 200 miles northeast of Cali. The recently enlarged auditorium of<br />

the Helvecia Church is constantly crowded. We are now concentrating efforts<br />

in the city, where in the course of a few months another church ought to be<br />

organized.<br />

Bogota<br />

Colombia's rapidly growing capital is the center of much political and religious<br />

agitation. Ten years ago evangelical work there was barely inching forward;<br />

today giant strides can scarcely keep up with it. Baptists are reaping, too.<br />

We have two churches and two outstations, each strategically located. <strong>Services</strong><br />

are well attended, and many confessions of faith result from them. The two<br />

national Baptist pastors are to be commended for their splendid co-operation.<br />

Church members, too, are actively participating in evangelistic work.<br />

In January, 1952, Rev. Jeronimo Ramirez, president of the Colombia Baptist<br />

Convention, was also appointed editor of the Heraldo Bautista, official journal<br />

of the convention. This necessitated his moving to Bogota with his family. He<br />

is also serving as pastor of the Central Baptist Church during the absence of<br />

Missionary Gerald Riddell.<br />

Bogota is to be the meeting place for the 1953 Colombian Baptist Convention,<br />

with some messengers coming 600 miles by plane.<br />

The Colombia Mission faces 1953 with eager anticipation and with deep<br />

assurance, that, in spite of increasing Catholic opposition and restricted liberties,<br />

we will continue to advance.<br />

SECOND YEAR IN ECUADOR<br />

Missionary Garreth E. Joiner<br />

On November 30, 1952, the Baptist Mission in Ecuador celebrated its second<br />

anniversary. The first year was well spent in organizing the work, beginning<br />

with a national preacher, Rev. Jorge Vasquez, and a nicely furnished and<br />

decorated "Baptist Center" in downtown Quito, the capital city of Ecuador. On<br />

March 9, 1952, four persons were baptized by authorization of the First Baptist<br />

Church of Cali, Colombia. The beautiful outdoor ceremony performed by Missionary<br />

Gordon Crocker thrilled the hearts of those who witnessed the first<br />

Baptist baptismal ceremony ever to be performed in the country of Ecuador.<br />

The following Wednesday night, March 12, the Central Baptist Church of<br />

Quito, the first Baptist church of all Ecuador, was formally organized with nine<br />

charter members. Rev. Gordon Crocker was called as pastor and Rev. Jorge<br />

Vasquez as assistant pastor. The second week in March will always be a historic<br />

one for Ecuadorian Baptists.<br />

Also in March, plans were made to open a small mission preaching point in<br />

one of the more populous residential districts of the city where there was<br />

absolutely no evangelical work in progress. A small hall was rented and re-


152 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

decorated, and on the first Sunday of May, services were held for the first time<br />

in the Baptist Center of The Tola, as that particular district of Quito is called.<br />

The Tola, like most of the poorer residential areas of the city, is very strongly<br />

priest-controlled, and for that reason progress in the new mission has been very<br />

slow. But there are now a handful of faithful ones who regularly attend the<br />

Friday night services there, and we look forward to the day when the second<br />

Baptist church in Quito will be located in that district. The Central Baptist<br />

Church, from the first, adopted the new mission as its own, thus expressing an<br />

admirable missionary sentiment without which our work would never grow.<br />

During the months that have followed the organization of the Central Baptist<br />

Church, eight more members have been added by baptism. Two members were<br />

temporarily lost by transfer of letter when the Gordon Crockers left on furlough.<br />

At present, others are studying in the baptismal class preparatory to baptism<br />

and church membership.<br />

As the year ends, it finds the Baptists of Quito engaged in a special Christmas<br />

series of evangelistic services. A distinguished gentleman, Dr. J. M. Ruiz<br />

of Managua, Nicaragua, who for 17 years was a Catholic priest and for the<br />

past 17 years or so has served as a Baptist pastor and teacher in his native<br />

Nicaragua, is preaching in this campaign. He was educated in Rome and is well<br />

qualified to speak with authority regarding the Roman system and doctrines.<br />

Our little chapel has been full for every service so far. Roman Catholic Quito<br />

is not easily moved by the gospel except in opposition—to which the priests<br />

constantly exhort the people. The prayers of all Southern Baptists are urgently<br />

needed for the Central Baptist Church of Quito and for the future of our still<br />

infant Baptist work in the country that Simon Bolivar—the George Washington<br />

of Venezuela, Colombia, and Ecuador—called "the convent of South America."<br />

EXPANDING MISSION IN PERU<br />

Missionary Robert L. Harris<br />

At the beginning of the year, two missionary couples and a national pastor<br />

and his family comprised the Baptist witness in Lima, Peru. There was one<br />

church, that of the Miraflores, ("look at the flowers") section, where Missionary<br />

M. D. Oates has been pastor since its organization late in 1951. The church<br />

operated an outstation in the Lince district, which early in the year was turned<br />

over to the direction of Missionary Robert Harris.<br />

About the first of March, Senor Antonio Gamarra, our national pastor from<br />

Argentina, began work in the center of Lima. After many unsuccessful attempts,<br />

we secured a hall which has proved to be excellently situated. Only<br />

two blocks away is the junction of three great traffic lines right where they enter<br />

the business heart of this Latin American metropolis. The Lord's blessings have<br />

been felt from the first service on April 10. In a month's time the Sunday school<br />

was averaging 45, including a fine group of young people whose lovely voices<br />

have contributed effectively to our radio program.<br />

This radio venture is a thrilling story in itself. In February, most of the<br />

evangelical radio programs were forced off the air by obstacles of various kinds.<br />

When Mr. Oates came back from his talk with a radio executive to report that<br />

he had been able, through the Lord's help, to contract for a weekly Sunday<br />

evening program, we knew we had been signally blessed. This program, with<br />

its fine music and the heart-warming preaching of Senor Gamarra, is a real<br />

testimony. We have many letters and other signs of its good work.<br />

The first anniversary of the founding of the Miraflores Church came on the<br />

evening of August 19. It was a time of rejoicing for what the Lord had done in<br />

so short a time. The program was planned, presided over, and presented by<br />

the members of this well-organized and very active church. The program fittingly<br />

terminated with the decisions of eight people to follow the Saviour. For them<br />

it was the beginning of a period of study and instruction which will culminate in<br />

church membership for some. The Woman's Missionary Society of this church<br />

is functioning well, participating this year in the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering<br />

for world missions. The Training Union is already yielding young men who<br />

are feeling God's call to preach.<br />

On November 16 the downtown Lima church, which has grown steadily since<br />

its beginning early in the year, was formally organized. It is thrilling to see the<br />

members taking responsibility. The last business meeting of the year saw them<br />

take their first step toward self-support. The church voted to pay the operating


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD 153<br />

expenses of the hall and pay a small percentage of the pastor's salary. May<br />

K f-p^Ti an * *kat ^ e churches quickly will come to be not only self-supporting<br />

but full of missionary zeal to spread the gospel of personal redemption to every<br />

corner of this republic.<br />

HIGH COSTS AFFECT VENEZUELAN MISSION<br />

Missionary J. Ulman Moss<br />

Venezuela seems to have the reputation of being the most costly place in<br />

the world to live. It costs from two to three times as much as to live in the<br />

United States. Naturally, this has had its influence on our mission work. For<br />

example, we had a small increase in our operating budget but were unable to<br />

open the new centers mentioned in last year's report because the increase was<br />

eaten up in higher rents and other costs. However, one of the new centers<br />

mentioned, Valencia, was opened at the end of 1951. The fact that other countries<br />

can do twice the amount of work on the same money does not lessen the<br />

importance of Venezuela.<br />

Recent elections in Venezuela have left us wondering what the year 1953<br />

has in store for our work. However, great emphasis has been given to evangelism<br />

in all our program, and we have had the greatest number of professions of faith<br />

of any previous year. During the convention year we had about 360 professions<br />

of faith. During a special campaign in the churches in August, we had about<br />

135 professions, and hope for even greater results in 1953.<br />

Caracas<br />

The large city of Caracas was without a resident missionary for a year,<br />

and had only occasional visits from the other missionary in Venezuela during that<br />

time. Although the church has had increases in all phases of its work, it remains<br />

as our only church center in the city. We have had hopes of establishing a<br />

second church in another section, but the housing problem still remains a big<br />

factor to deal with. Mr. and Mrs. T. L. Neely are back from furlough, and<br />

we hope to open a new center in early 1953. A Baptist bookstore, which we<br />

hope will mean much to our work in general, is now in operation in Caracas.<br />

Barquisimeto<br />

In Barquisimeto we had the largest number of converts of any previous year<br />

and the church has been pushing toward self-support. The work of the local<br />

missionary [J. Ulman Moss] has been largely that of promotion. After a course<br />

of study on finance and stewardship, church finances have almost doubled, with<br />

many more people tithing. Other special studies and promotion of a national<br />

Baptist calendar of activities also have meant much to the program of the local<br />

church.<br />

A special Bible-Month campaign for the distribution and reading of the<br />

Scriptures was sponsored by the Training Union during October. We sold about<br />

500 Bibles, Testaments, and Gospels, climaxing the month's activities with a<br />

special program on Bible Day.<br />

Barquisimeto has the only day school, Colegio Bautista, that the Mission<br />

sponsors. It has entered the school year with 85 students. Three of the five<br />

teachers are members of our church; the other two are believers from another<br />

church. Schools are definitely needed in other churches.<br />

Maracaibo<br />

Baptist work in Maracaibo has had a marvelous growth in two years. The<br />

Sunday school attendance averages now between 125 and 150 each Sunday. The<br />

big problem is the chapel. With 100 people, it is packed; and with 150 it is<br />

overflowing. Tropical heat makes crowding more disagreeable. Rents are so<br />

high that it has almost been out of the question to look for another place. The<br />

only solution will be the purchase of property. Rev. and Mrs. Charles B. Clark<br />

have arrived in Maracaibo as our third missionary family in Venezuela. We<br />

hope he will be able to help solve this big problem of space.<br />

Maracaibo has the only Baptist radio program in Venezuela. The half-hour<br />

program furnished by the local church each Saturday has a wide reach and is<br />

well received.


154 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

A neighboring oil-field city, Cabimas, with about 80,000 people, offers a great<br />

mission opportunity for Maracaibo Church. With some Baptist families already<br />

there, we hope to start work early 1953. Maracaibo is the only Baptist church<br />

that works among the Indians. This mission among the tribe of the Guajiros<br />

(called Mamfuey) now has an attendance of some 50 to 60 in Sunday school.<br />

La Mensura, another Baptist church that has been sponsored by the Maracaibo<br />

church, was accepted as a member of the National Convention in the August<br />

meeting, though it receives no support from the Mission.<br />

Baptist Work in Other Centers<br />

Acarigua<br />

The Acarigua Church now has four mission Sunday schools that bring the<br />

total attendance to nearly 250 each Sunday. Preaching services are also held in<br />

each center. This church has more of its members at work in the program of<br />

evangelism than any other Venezuelan church. A small day school was started<br />

during the year, with three grades and one teacher. This educational need is<br />

great and needs expanding. Acarigua is in the region covered by the Barquisimeto<br />

missionary.<br />

Guanare<br />

Guanare is the city of the national patron saint, the Virgin of Coromoto, an<br />

promises to offer many headaches for the future. The priests are hoping for a<br />

government that will be in favor of throwing out all evangelical Christian work.<br />

In spite of all this, Baptists have progressed. Money is now in hand to start<br />

work on a chapel. Guanare is the center of a large rural region that is largely<br />

evangelical.<br />

The church in San Nicholas has its own pastor, but is sponsored by the<br />

Guanare church. A new chapel offers great promise, though the Romanists have<br />

made many threats and charges, trying to scatter the people.<br />

Valencia<br />

Baptist work in Valencia has been in progress about a year under the leadership<br />

of Efraim Silva, an experienced national pastor, and the attendance has<br />

passed the 50 mark. An attractive building for the meetings has been a big<br />

help here. Baptismal or doctrine classes are in progress and we hope a new<br />

church will soon be organized.<br />

National Baptist Convention<br />

The national convention had its second meeting in August in Barquisimeto.<br />

All reports showed much progress. Two other churches were accepted as members,<br />

La Mensura and Valle de la Pascua. These two receive no support from<br />

the Mission but are doing a good work.<br />

Luminar Bautista, the Convention paper, had a good year. We are also publishing<br />

tracts and have published a booklet for doctrinal or baptismal class<br />

studies.<br />

Our opportunities are as great as God's promises, so we are expecting greater<br />

things in 1953.<br />

Report on The Orient<br />

BAKER J. CAUTHEN, Secretary<br />

The story of Christian work inside Communist China is both tragic and<br />

glorious. On the one hand, there is the grim fact of large numbers of Christian<br />

leaders enduring long months of bitter imprisonment, with the pressure from<br />

the Communist government growing steadily more intense upon all phases of<br />

Christian work. Persecution is not direct. That is to say, a person is not imprisoned<br />

because he is a Christian. Those who are loyal to Christ often must<br />

face charges that they are spies for Western powers or are unfriendly toward<br />

the Communist government. Although their Christian fidelity may be the real<br />

offense to the Communists, the charges are usually on the basis of some<br />

political pretext. , . ... ,. , ,<br />

All Christian schools, hospitals, and other institutions have been brought so


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD<br />

firmly under the grip of the government that they have lost their Christian<br />

usefulness. The University of Shanghai no longer exists under its own name,<br />

but is now a government school for industrial and technical workers. The China<br />

Baptist Theological Seminary, along with ten other seminaries of East China,<br />

was forced to close, and its work has been amalgamated into a general institution<br />

in Nanking.<br />

_ Pastors and other leaders are under constant suspicion. They are aware of<br />

being watched by enemies who are ready to cause their arrest upon the first<br />

opportunity.<br />

Amid these stern realities, the Christians of China continue to manifest their<br />

devotion to the Lord Jesus. There are some who have in their weakness or<br />

ignorance begun to serve the purposes of the Communists, but their numbers are<br />

few in comparison to the total company of believers. Repeatedly, there come reports<br />

out of Communist China indicating that amid all the pressure and difficulty<br />

upon Christ's servants the work of God goes on. Souls are being saved,<br />

and Christians are growing deeper in their faith. We are convinced that in<br />

this crucible of suffering, God's people in China will learn richer lessons of the<br />

grace of God and the power of prayer. We must continue to uphold them at<br />

all times before the Throne of Grace.<br />

Upon the borders of China, in Hong Kong and Macao, a strong work goes on.<br />

There are approximately 500,000 people in Macao who live under Portuguese<br />

government and 2,000,000 in Hong Kong under British government. In this<br />

area there are seventeen churches and chapels. Some of the churches are strong<br />

and have aswell developed program of work. Pooi Ching School for Boys and<br />

Pooi To High School for Girls have branches in both cities. Pooi Ching and<br />

Pooi To Schools in Hong Kong are engaged in constructing new classroom buildings,<br />

most of the money for which has been given by Chinese in Hong Kong.<br />

The Hong Kong Seminary is providing opportunity for Christian workers to<br />

study, and already graduates are taking up responsibilities.<br />

Much relief work is being done among the refugees from Communist China,<br />

who live in miserable conditions of poverty and malnutrition in pitiful huts and<br />

shanties constructed in the mountainsides. The most outstanding relief project<br />

for them is the "Village of Brotherly Love" built by Baptist relief funds.<br />

A splendid staff of missionaries both in Macao and Hong Kong represent<br />

Southern Baptists in this important beachhead in the doorway of Communist<br />

China. There are twelve missionaries at work in these two cities.<br />

Baptist work in Formosa has gone forward in a splendid manner. Remarkable<br />

opportunity prevails among the 9,000,000 people who live on this island.<br />

Twenty-six missionaries of our Board are working in seven main cities of the<br />

island, with other points of witness in smaller cities and villages. Many people<br />

have been won to Christ, and the churches have experienced rapid growth. The<br />

seminary in Taipeh opened in the fall of 1952 with thirty-four students. Formosa<br />

presents a remarkable challenge because of the opportunity to win large numbers<br />

of people to Christ and train a strong staff of workers to take up places of<br />

responsibility when the door to China reopens.<br />

Baptist ministry in Korea has been a source of joy and blessing to many<br />

hearts. The Korean Baptist Convention has been greatly strengthened, and<br />

only eternity can tell of the wonderful blessing which has been brought through<br />

preaching of the gospel, the medical ministry, and relief. During 1952 more<br />

than 53,000 treatments were administered by Dr. N. A. Bryan and his small<br />

staff of helpers. Many tons of relief clothing were distributed by Rev. Rex Ray,<br />

as he traveled throughout the churches of South Korea. Rev. and Mrs. John<br />

Abernathy have brought very great encouragement to the Korean Baptist<br />

Convention, as they have told the story of Christ and have encouraged the<br />

leaders of the Convention in the organization of their work. New missionaries<br />

are now being appointed to Korea for life service. One of the first projects to<br />

be launched is that of a Bible school, so that there will be opportunity for study<br />

on the part of Korean preachers.<br />

Progress in Japan continues in a remarkable manner. It is expected by the<br />

meeting of the Southern Baptist Convention in May that we will have 100 missionaries<br />

for Japan. Missionaries are now located in the major cities extending<br />

from the northern island of Hokkaido to the extreme southern tip of Kyushu.<br />

There are more than 2,400 students in this splendid Christian school, ^ere aiso<br />

are located the Japan Baptist Theological Seminary and the Woman s l raining<br />

School. To these institutions, Japan Baptists are looking for the preparation<br />

of their leaders.<br />

Medical missionaries have been appointed, and a hospital is to be opened<br />

shortly. Four missionary doctors have been appointed for Japan, so as to give a<br />

strong medical team to project this important phase of the work. God has remarkably<br />

blessed the work in Japan, and we are greatly encouraged.<br />

Work in the Philippines has been expanded especially in the ministry toward<br />

Filipino people. Work was begun first with the Chinese, but as time has gone<br />

on it is evident that needs among the Filipinos are even greater. Especially<br />

challenging are the opportunities on Mindanao, where work is centered in the<br />

city of Davao. A splendid seminary has been opened in Baguio and is soon to<br />

complete its first year of work. Plans are being laid now for the projection of<br />

a clinic. All the reasons which lead us into a great program of mission work in<br />

Latin America apply to the Philippine Islands, where a population of more than<br />

20,000,000 people needs to know a living Christ.<br />

Work in Thailand has been strengthened throughout the past year. A staff of<br />

fifteen missionaries now ministers to Thailand, where work is being projected<br />

both among Chinese and Thai people. Grace Baptist Church in Bangkok has<br />

shown rapid growth throughout the past year. Chapels are now ministering in<br />

different sections of the city, and missionaries are preaching in surrounding<br />

localities. ^ Rev. and Mrs. Deaver Lawton have opened a station at Ayuthia, which<br />

is the ancient capital of Siam. This field remains one of our most challenging<br />

opportunities.<br />

The work in Malaya has progressed rapidly in the last year. There are<br />

two churches in Singapore, one in Kuala Lumpur, and one in Alor Star.<br />

Eight_ missionaries of our Board are now located in Malaya. Work is being<br />

established in the city of Penang. Although there is guerrilla disturbance in<br />

Malaya in the jungles, the cities are secure, and there is complete freedom to<br />

work among the Chinese population.<br />

The city of Singapore, with 1,000,000 people is a great field of service. Dr.<br />

and Mrs. Eugene Hill and Miss Lora Clement are located in this great metropolis.<br />

Bible school work in Malaya is urgently needed, and we are hopeful it can be<br />

begun in the coming months.<br />

Work in Indonesia is centered upon the island of Java, where live 50,000,000<br />

people. We now have fifteen missionaries for Java, located in Jakarta, Bandung,<br />

Semarang, and Soerabaja. The first church was organized in Bandung, and other<br />

churches will be organized in the days ahead.<br />

In Indonesia medical work will have a significant contribution to make. In<br />

all of Indonesia there are only 1,400 doctors, giving a proportion of one doctor<br />

for every 60,000 people. We are expecting to launch medical work in Indonesia<br />

in 1953. It will also be urgently necessary to establish a seminary for the<br />

training of both Chinese and Indonesian Christian workers. Dr. B. L. Nichols<br />

is in Indonesia now, and will give leadership to this project.<br />

Literature for Chinese work throughout all of Southeast Asia is being prepared<br />

in Hong Kong by the Baptist Press. This phase of the work in the Orient<br />

is of great significance.<br />

We stand ready to enter India and Pakistan. Applications for missionaries<br />

of our Board to enter India were rejected by the Indian government in 1950.<br />

We are praying that the Lord will lead in a definite way, so that Southern Baptists<br />

may have in India a ministry among the 400,000,000 people of that land.<br />

By the end of 1953 all China missionaries available for return to the field<br />

will be at work on mission fields of the Orient. At the same time, new missionaries<br />

are being appointed to go into the various areas which have been entered<br />

where they will acquire the national languages and enter upon life service. In<br />

this manner a permanent staff of missionaries will be built up in all the missions<br />

we have entered, looking forward to the day when some of the missionaries who<br />

formerly served in China will be able to return to China as the powers of<br />

communism in that land are swept aside. There is need for as many mission­<br />

CHURCHES INCREASE IN HAWAII<br />

During Thanksgiving week the tenth annual Hawaii Baptist Convention met<br />

in the Wahiawa Baptist Church on the island of Oahu. Truly, there was cause<br />

for giving thanks to God for marked progress made in all churches and agencies<br />

of the convention during the year 1952. The total membership of the churches<br />

is now 2,775, with a Sunday school enrolment of 5,086. Baptisms number 331<br />

for the year. Vacation Bible school enrolment reached 3,039. Baptist Training<br />

Union reports show 1,168 members and Woman's Missionary Union with its 83<br />

societies and auxiliaries has a total membership of 1,350. Contributions for all<br />

causes amounted to about $47 per capita. This fact reveals that local cHurch<br />

members, a great number of whom are yet in school, are giving generously to<br />

the support of the work in these islands.<br />

Four new churches were organized during the year: on the island of Oahu, the<br />

Kaneohe Baptist Church was organized January 13 with 25 charter members;<br />

on March 2 the Kalihi Baptist Church was formed with 29 members; and on<br />

October 5 the Waikiki Baptist Church was organized with 27 charter members;<br />

on the island of Maui, the Wailuku Baptist Church was organized on November<br />

16 with 25 members.<br />

Island of Hawaii<br />

On the island of Hawaii, known to Islanders as the "Big Island," there are<br />

two Baptist churches, both located in the city of Hilo.<br />

Missionary H. B. Ramsour, pastor of the Kinoole Baptist Church, writes:<br />

"The year of 1952 has been a year of many changes for the Kinoole Baptist<br />

Church. Some changes have contributed materially to the advancement of<br />

Baptist work, while others have brought difficulties. The most serious difficulties<br />

have been those created by the departure of a number of faithful members who<br />

moved elsewhere; especially was the loss felt in the going of Miss Wilma Weeks,<br />

who returned to the States in August to make preparation to go to Java where<br />

she is to work with Chinese-speaking people. In spite of difficulties, however,<br />

our work has steadily progressed. Probably the most marked change in the<br />

church has been in a material way. In the month of April a new $40,000<br />

auditorium was completed, and the church moved out of an improvised army<br />

shack into one of the most attractive buildings in the city of Hilo. The<br />

simplicity and beauty of this building has added much to the spirit of worship<br />

in all the services. We are grateful to the Foreign Mission Board and contributors<br />

to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering who provided $30,000 of the<br />

funds needed for the erection of the building."<br />

Missionary H. R. Tatum reports that the Kaumana Drive Baptist Church of<br />

Hilo, now in its second year, has extended its reach to the community. The<br />

membership^ of the church is now 35, and several are awaiting baptism. The<br />

Tatum family went on furlough for four months, during which pastors from<br />

Oahu conducted worship services. Missionary Mary Lee Ernest carried on the<br />

educational work of the church in an effective manner.


158 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Island of Maui<br />

Members of the Kahului Baptist Church have had special reason to tha nk God<br />

for the beautiful new and adequate church building which they have Deen enjoying<br />

for about a year. The Lottie Moon Christmas Offering has proyiaea<br />

$30,000 of the funds for the building. Since moving into the new church there<br />

has been an increase in Sunday school and church attendance. The work ol: tne<br />

Kahului Church is under the leadership of Rev. and Mrs. E. J. Tharpe, Miss<br />

Alda Grayson, and Miss Hilda Bledsoe, the kindergarten teacher.<br />

Rev. Daniel Ongais of Hawaii was called as the pastor of the newly organized<br />

Wailuku Baptist Church in Wailuku, Maui. Mr. Ongais is a pioneer Baptist<br />

worker on Maui and a graduate of the Baptist Bible School in Honolulu. Miss<br />

Bertie Lee Kendrick is associated with Mr. and Mrs. Ongais in the educational<br />

work of the Wailuku church. This new church is located in the largest town<br />

on the island. At present, meetings are being held in a rented house near the<br />

center of town.<br />

' Islands of Molokai and Lanai<br />

Rev. and Mrs. Roy L. Davis, Jr., are missionaries of the Hawaii Baptist<br />

Convention to the islands of Molokai and Lanai. Mr. Davis reports that in ten<br />

months the membership of the Kaunakakai Baptist Church has doubled and there<br />

has been a great increase in Sunday school attendance. Because of lack of space,<br />

Sunday school classes meet in the yard and in the church station wagon.<br />

The Kaunakakai Church sponsors a mission church on the island of Lanai.<br />

Mr. Davis travels to Lanai for services on one Sunday each month and remains<br />

on the island a part of the following week for visitation and the strengthening<br />

of Christians there.<br />

Island of Kauai<br />

Baptist work on the island of Kauai centers in the Waimea Baptist Church,<br />

which Missionary Carter Morgan is pastor. Mr. Morgan writes: "In the past<br />

year we have seen our Sunday school stay between 150 and 190. But more encouraging,<br />

we have seen adults confess Christ, though it was followed by persecution.<br />

We welcomed a new helper in June, Miss Pearl Grigg from Kentucky.<br />

Ways have been found to meet with some 250 persons weekly, apart from Sunday<br />

services, to give a better grasp of the Christian faith. Yet, with all this,<br />

we have had families leave the church and return to the Buddhist temple; we've<br />

seen indignation and resentment flame through a neighborhood as someone gave<br />

up old-country customs to become a follower of Jesus Christ; and we have seen<br />

others turn back after making a beginning—unable to resist the pressure from<br />

family, friends, and business. We've seen some carried away by the false claims<br />

and promises of cults that twist the Scriptures. Through it all, we know that<br />

God is working, and some friends have really helped us by their faithful<br />

prayers."<br />

Island of Oahu<br />

The island of Oahu is the governmental, educational, and financial center<br />

the Territory of Hawaii. This island, with Honolulu as the capital city, is the<br />

principal port of call for transoceanic planes and ships. More than one-half of<br />

the population of the territory is found here. Therefore, about three-fourths of<br />

all Southern Baptist missionaries are stationed on Oahu. Located on this island<br />

are 11 of the 17 churches affiliated with the Hawaii Baptist Convention, as well<br />

as the Hawaiian Baptist Academy, the Baptist Bible School and Baptist Student<br />

Union Center, the Baptist bookstore and headquarters building, and the Baptist<br />

assembly—Camp Puu Kahea.<br />

Churches of Oahu<br />

Concerning the progress in the Olivet Baptist Church, Missionary Malcolm<br />

Stuart, pastor, writes: "Olivet Church has just experienced one of the greatest<br />

vears of spiritual advance in her history. Many people have come to know Christ<br />

as Lord and Saviour; 96 followed Christ in baptism and 101 joined the church<br />

bv letter A budget of $34,200 has been adopted for 1953. The spirit of missions<br />

permeates the entire life of the church. Our young people are carrying on mis-


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD 159<br />

sion work in the Kamehameha and Kalakaua housing areas. The church is now<br />

looking for locations for new missions. The Sunday school has shown steady<br />

growth with an enrolment of 1,190 and a peak attendance of 902. Advance in<br />

Training Union is encouraging; the enrolment has reached 233. Woman's Missionary<br />

Union is well organized and means much to the life of the church; a goal<br />

of $2,000 has been set for the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering this year. The<br />

kindergarten, with Miss Lydia Greene as director, is in one of its best years<br />

with an enrolment of 53."<br />

The Nuuanu Baptist Church has also experienced a great year under the<br />

leadership of Rev. and Mrs. J. H. Ware. There have been 68 baptisms, bringing<br />

the membership of the church to 482, and 690 are enrolled in Sunday school.<br />

Miss Olive Allen directs the church kindergarten and also helps in the educational<br />

work of the church.<br />

On March 2, Dr. and Mrs. D. F. Stamps, veteran China missionaries, arrived<br />

in Honolulu to begin work in the University Avenue Baptist Church. There have<br />

been evidences of the working of God's Holy Spirit in that church under their<br />

leadership. The Sunday school enrolment has climbed to 358; the church membership<br />

is 130. The church kindergarten, of which Miss Cornelia Leavell is<br />

director, provides a means of contact with many families in the community.<br />

Members of the Waialae Baptist Church are still worshiping in reconditioned<br />

army buildings. There is need for a bigger church lot as well as a permanent<br />

church building. Rev. and Mrs. L. E. Blackman have served in the Waialae<br />

church since its organization in 1949. Miss Martha Morrison is doing a fine<br />

work as kindergarten teacher at Waialae as well as helping in the work of the<br />

church.<br />

The Academy Baptist Church, where Dr. Frank T. Woodward is pastor, has<br />

had a good year. This church meets in the buildings of the Hawaiian Baptist<br />

Academy. Miss Mary Crawford and Miss Lillie Hundley, who teach in the<br />

Academy, are associated with the Woodwards in the work of the church.<br />

Missionary Chester Young is pastor of the Kalihi Baptist Church. During<br />

the furlough of the Youngs, Missionary Victor Koon has preached in the church.<br />

Missionary Hannah Plowden, Secretary of Religious Education for the Hawaiian<br />

Convention, has directed the educational work of the Kalihi church for four<br />

months and kept up her other duties as well. At present, services of the<br />

Kalihi church are being held in a community hall in a thickly populated area<br />

where there are wonderful possibilities for the growth of the church.<br />

Kaneohe Baptist Church, where Missionary W. E. Haltom is pastor, has<br />

shown rapid growth since its organization. It is located on the windward side of<br />

Oahu and is the only Baptist church on that side of the island. A lot has been<br />

purchased, and the first unit of a church building is under construction. Members<br />

of the Kaneohe Baptist church are grateful to the Foreign Mission Board<br />

and to Woman's Missionary Union for funds given through the Lottie Moon<br />

Christmas Offering for this undertaking.<br />

Rev. and Mrs. Eugene Cross lead in the work of "the Wahiawa Baptist Church,<br />

located about 25 miles from the city of Honolulu. Church membership numbers<br />

270, with 708 enrolled in Sunday school. Miss Ethel Chong and Miss Ah How<br />

Ching serve faithfully with the missionaries in the Wahiawa Church.<br />

Pastor David W. Petherbridge of the Waikiki Baptist Church writes: "The<br />

pastor taught in the Baptist Academy during the school year 1951-52, while he<br />

served as volunteer pastor at Waikiki Baptist Chapel. He was called as fulltime<br />

pastor, his salary to be paid by the chapel, beginning June 1, 1952. During<br />

the year the following organizations were begun: W.M.S., Sunbeams, R.A., and<br />

G.A. Ten per cent of monthly receipts go to the Cooperative Program, and a<br />

budget for the new year is $460 per month. Of our 29 resident members, 20 are<br />

pledged tithers. Our church is in a one-room building. Four classes of the<br />

Sunday school meet inside; six meet in the yard. Fortunately, we are in a dry<br />

area, but a few Sundays we are caused to omit our class period because of the<br />

rain."<br />

Hawaiian Baptist Academy<br />

In the absence of Rev. and Mrs. H. P. McCormick, who are on furlough, Dr.<br />

A. E. Prince is serving as principal of the Baptist Academy. There are 227<br />

students enrolled for the current school year—127 in the elementary grades of<br />

Miss Cornwell is doing a very fine work in this position. A new missionary,<br />

Miss Frances Hatcher, has also been added to the faculty of the high school as<br />

home economics teacher. Dr. Prince reports that the school has a choice group<br />

of students who are doing splendid work.<br />

Baptist Student Union<br />

The Baptist Student Union of Hawaii, with Missionary Josephine Harris as<br />

secretary, is in its seventh year of organized work. It is the aim of the B.S.U. to<br />

reach young people in the University of Hawaii and also in professional schools<br />

in Honolulu. Miss Harris reports that a more definite spiritual program has been<br />

in force this year, and the officers are carrying through their respective duties<br />

in a splendid way. One high point of the year was the visit of Mr. and Mrs.<br />

William Hall Preston of the Southwide Student Department, who helped in the<br />

pre-school retreat and other initial meetings of the year.<br />

Baptist Book Store<br />

Staff members of the Baptist Book Store, of which Mrs. Bess Harrison is<br />

manager, have consecrated their services to the Lord's work. The aim of the<br />

store is spiritual, not commercial; however, Mrs. Harrison reports that sales<br />

have increased this year, reaching $44,659.41 through September of 1952.<br />

Magazine and Radio<br />

The monthly journal of the Hawaii Baptist Convention is the Hawaii Baptis<br />

Rev. David Petherbridge is the new editor. The paper has a paid circulation of<br />

776 and is very helpful in keeping Baptists of the island informed about local<br />

happenings in the churches as well as bits of news from the outside. There is<br />

an exchange service with mainland Southern Baptist publications.<br />

Recordings of the "Baptist Hour" from the mainland are broadcast from<br />

Honolulu every Sunday afternoon over the strongest station in the islands and is<br />

well received. The messages reach many people who never attend any church.<br />

A Japanese-language program is also broadcast each week from Honolulu, with<br />

Rev. T. Hirano, pastor of the Japanese division of Olivet Church, bringing the<br />

messages. An effective radio ministry has also been carried on by the Kinoole<br />

Baptist Church in Hilo. On the island of Maui, a 15-minute program is broadcast<br />

each Saturday morning through the courtesy of the local station. Although<br />

planned especially for children the program is also reaching many adults.<br />

Camp Puu Kahea<br />

The Baptist assembly grounds, Camp Puu Kahea (Echoing Hills), are located<br />

about thirty-five miles from Honolulu. From the time of the dedication of the<br />

buildings and the sixteen and one-half acres of land on November 24, 1950, this<br />

camp has been a great spiritual influence among Baptists of Hawaii. Decisions<br />

for Christ as Saviour have been made, many have rededicated their lives to the<br />

Lord, and some have surrendered to God's call for definite Christian service.<br />

Among the conference speakers for the year were Dr. and Mrs. A. Hope Owen<br />

of Plainview, Texas, Dr. and Mrs. Joe Trussell, also of Texas, Dr. and Mrs.<br />

J. Gilbert Hutchinson of Clanton, Alabama, and Dr. Baker James Cauthen of<br />

Richmond, Virginia. Camp director, Missionary Malcolm Stuart, reports that 209<br />

people were registered for the summer conference, and that after all expenses<br />

were paid $520 was turned into the Hawaii Baptist Convention treasury.<br />

The Puu Kahea Baptist Mission of which Dr. A. E. Prince is now serving as<br />

pastor, is growing rapidly. In one three-month period, there were twenty-five<br />

additions to the membership, most of them adults. Plans are being made for<br />

the construction of an auditorium which will probably be used for the encampment<br />

as well as for regular church services.<br />

JAPAN MISSION OPENS NEW AREAS<br />

Missionary Lucy Belle Stokes<br />

The year 1952 has brought many advances in the work of the Japan Baptist<br />

Mission and the Japan Baptist Convention. There are more missionaries in<br />

Japan than ever before in the history of our work, and there are more Baptist<br />

churches than have ever witnessed to the Japanese people before. Baptist work<br />

has been started for the first time in several new areas, and pastors as well as


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD 161<br />

missionaries are being kindled anew with the fires of evangelism. As compared<br />

with eight self-supporting churches in 1949, this year there are 20. In 1949<br />

medical work in Japan was only a dream; today it is much nearer reality with<br />

the coming of medical missionaries to Japan in the fall of 1952. In 1949 it was<br />

a deep desire on the part of both the Mission and the Convention for Dr. Baker<br />

James Cauthen and his family to spend some time in Japan, and this became a<br />

reality when they spent the year in Tokyo. Perhaps one of the greatest accomplishments<br />

this year has been the "dendokai" (preaching mission) in the<br />

churches and outstations, with missionaries and national pastors preaching.<br />

Though vast crowds of people have not attended the services this year, the<br />

majority who came were adults and attended because they sincerely wanted to<br />

understand and believe in the Christ who was preached to them. The work<br />

in Japan has been strengthened, and the church members are growing in grace<br />

and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour.<br />

South Kyushu<br />

Kagoshima, with Mr. and Mrs. Ed Oliver as missionaries, and Nagasaki, with<br />

Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Spence, are the two most southern points where our missionaries<br />

are located. Kumamoto is also among the "southern" cities where<br />

Southern Baptists work. The W. R. Medling family, stationed there, is on furlough<br />

this year. From these cities, as in other locations, missionaries, pastors<br />

and local church members go out to rural areas to preach the gospel of Jesus<br />

Christ. In Nagasaki the W.M.S. of the local church is sponsoring a cooking<br />

class for the women of the various neighborhoods. Preceding each class, a<br />

religious service is held, and the women are given tracts to read. On several<br />

occasions this has led to a gift of a Bible to further the word of God in the<br />

lives of the mothers of the homes.<br />

Seventeen missionaries have their homes located in or near the city of<br />

Fukuoka, where our school, Seinan Gakuin, is located. Their activities range<br />

from teaching in a department of the school to rural evangelism and training<br />

missionary children in the "way in which they should go."<br />

The total enrolment of Seinan Gakuin is 3,483. Missionary W. M. Garrott is<br />

president of the school and Missionary E. L. Copeland is dean of the university<br />

department of the school. We have junior high, senior high, and university levels<br />

of training at Seinan. The university level is divided into two sections—a two-


162 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

year junior college and a four-year senior college. In connection wit budget<br />

college, we have the Women's Training School which operates on ats " needs of<br />

ine in the Trainine School in September. A new university building has been<br />

competed! Jnd Se*foS dedication was held on May 10. Under its post-war<br />

reorganization, Seinan is gaining more and more recognition throughout Japan<br />

and is affording considerable prestige to our denomination Constant prayer<br />

and effort on the part of the missionaries are directed toward making the school<br />

more thoroughly Christian. Mr. and Mrs. John Shepard began teaching at<br />

the university in April of this year, and Mr. and Mrs. James E. Wood also give<br />

their time to the university. Mr. Wood has recently published a book entitled:<br />

A History of American Literature: An Anthology, which is designed especially<br />

for use in Japanese colleges.<br />

Mr. and Mrs. George Hays are working in several points out from Fukuoka—<br />

among them the town of Koga. The church there is composed largely of patients<br />

in the tuberculosis sanatoriums in the town, and as a result the membership is<br />

not very stable. However, the Christians are deeply earnest and Spirit-filled.<br />

Perhaps this is due partially to the contagious spirit of Sueharu Yoshiwara<br />

Sensei, the pastor. He has had tuberculosis since a boy of 14 and has only one<br />

lung and lacks six ribs on one side. To see him and think only of his body is to<br />

think of a walking skeleton, but to hear him preach and talk to those in trouble<br />

is to witness an indomitable spirit housed in a frail temple of the Holy Spirit.<br />

Mr. and Mrs. Tucker Callaway have been giving special emphasis to the work<br />

in their own neighborhood in Fukuoka. The work was started under the<br />

auspices of the Fukuoka Baptist church and was held in the home of one of the<br />

members until the Callaways moved into the neighborhood. Since that time,<br />

the meetings have been in their home because there is more space. With a<br />

minimum of publicity, the average attendance in Sunday school has been 85.<br />

For most of the year the worship service was held on Saturday night with an<br />

attendance that varied from 20 to 45. After a two-day special evangelistic<br />

meeting led by Pastor Shuichi Ozaki from Fukuoka, the worship service was<br />

moved to Sunday morning. On July 13 the first baptismal service was held<br />

and five young people followed the Lord on that day.<br />

Georgia state R.A. secretary, Glendon McCullough, who was in Japan for<br />

the year, made a splendid contribution to the work of the missionary organizations<br />

in Japan and also to the spiritual life of the students on Seinan campus.<br />

North Kyushu<br />

In North Kyushu, Oita, where Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Walker are stationed,<br />

shows many signs of advance as the church has grown and as opportunities have<br />

come to launch out into many small towns with an evangelistic program. English<br />

Bible classes for all age groups have proved to be an excellent way of presenting<br />

Christ. One of the richest experiences of the missionaries this year was seeing<br />

a teacher in one of the Japanese high schools saved. He is now serving as the<br />

missionary's interpreter.<br />

The city of Tobata and the Good Will Center there cannot be mentioned this<br />

vear without combining the names of Missionaries Elizabeth Watkins and Mary<br />

Limbert Miss Watkins served at the Good Will Center for the first six months<br />

and then went to a new field of service; Miss Limbert is now connected with<br />

the Good Will Center. The most outstanding advance of the year was the erec­<br />

tion of a kindergarten building. Because of extensive social work done in the<br />

the fall of this year. Missionary Frances Talley has been working with the<br />

churches in and around Kokura but is now on furlough. Seinan Jo Gakuin was<br />

given wide publicity through honors received by Miss Lancaster when the<br />

Ministry of Education and the Emperor and Empress of Japan conferred on her<br />

the fifth grade of the Order of the Sacred Treasure and presented her with a<br />

scroll imprinted with the Emperor's seal.<br />

Fourteen of the 49 churches in the Japan Convention are located in the North<br />

Kyushu area and the responsibilities and opportunities are many. Mr. and Mrs.<br />

Stanley Howard live in the city of Shimonoseki, and in this city, as well as the<br />

entire area, the seed of evangelism has been planted and is bearing fruit.<br />

The headquarters office of the W.M.U. of Japan is located at Kokura. The<br />

challenging message of Shuichi Ozaki at the W.M.U. Convention in Hiroshima,<br />

"Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world" (John 1:296),<br />

has been the year's watchword of the W.M.U. organizations this year, and 21<br />

new organizations have been reported. The World Day of Prayer offering at<br />

Christmas time went far beyond the goal. Of far greater value than the money<br />

is the increased interest and the spirit of sacrifice of our women and young<br />

people. Other offerings have increased steadily throughout the year. Missionary<br />

Floryne Miller works hand-in-hand with the Japanese women in the program<br />

of giving a vision of all the world to Japanese Christians. Although many joys<br />

have come to the W.M.U. this year, there has been real sorrow because of the<br />

death of Mrs. Junko Hara, for four years president of Japan's W.M.U. However,<br />

even from this sorrow joy has come also, because others have been drawn<br />

closer to the cross as a result of the Home-going of one who has meant so much<br />

to the work.<br />

Kansai<br />

In the Kansai station, Mr. and Mrs. Curtis Askew are located in the city o<br />

Hiroshima, Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Sherer in Kobe, Mr. and Mrs. Loyce Nelson in<br />

Okayama, Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Gillespie (on furlough this year) and Misses Mary<br />

Neal Morgan and Virginia Highfill in Osaka, Mr. and Mrs. C. D. Clarke in<br />

Kyoto, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Lee Hollaway in Nagoya, Mr. and Mrs. B. P.<br />

Emanuel in Takamatsu, and Misses Elizabeth Watkins and Frances Talley (on<br />

furlough this year) in Matsuyama.<br />

A church was organized at Nagoya on July 15, with a total of 62 charter<br />

members, 48 of whom were baptized at Nagoya. Keiji Tomita is pastor of the<br />

new church. He and the missionaries are working together to build a strong<br />

local church organization to serve the people in the area. Already, a mission<br />

church school is being conducted on Saturday evenings.<br />

During our first year in the ancient capital city of Kyoto, precious seeds of<br />

the gospel of Christ have been sown and God has given a good harvest of souls.<br />

In the city of over one million population and over 1,300 temples and shrines, a<br />

nucleus of Bible-loving Baptists have organized a church and are especially emphasizing<br />

evangelism and teacher training.<br />

A church building at Okayama, made possible by funds from America, was<br />

dedicated on September 12. The preaching mission and special evangelistic campaign<br />

in the fall resulted in 80 people there making decisions for Christ.<br />

The Osaka church has a membership of 100. It is one of the 20 self-supporting<br />

churches in the Japan Convention.<br />

A new church building was dedicated at Kobe in March. In April a fully<br />

graded Sunday school was organized, with the attendance averaging 150. In<br />

addition to regular services at the church, two church schools sponsored by the<br />

church meet during the week in the home of the missionaries. Prayers have been<br />

answered as many in this city, young and old, have come to know the saving<br />

power of Christ.<br />

Hiroshima has had an open door for the gospel from the end of the war, but<br />

since the signing of the peace treaty there is an attitude of the people to forget<br />

about "foreign things." Consequently, the mass evangelism of two or three years<br />

ago is not possible today. However, the church—organized before the war—<br />

moves forward in a steady program of winning people to Christ, and young people<br />

are answering the call of God to give their lives in full-time Christian service<br />

even when it means hardship and sometimes persecution.<br />

Mr. and Mrs. Morris Wright and Miss Lucy Belle Stokes have been assigned<br />

to work in Urawa, with the Wrights living in Urawa and Miss Stokes commuting<br />

from Tokyo, about an hour's trip away. In addition to their regular<br />

church activities, they are opening mission points in smaller rural areas out of<br />

the city. At present, both the missionary's home and the pastor's home are being<br />

used for Sunday school and other services. A church building has been started<br />

as the year ends, which should be completed within the next six or eight months.<br />

The preaching mission in November of this year was a great help to Mr. and<br />

Mrs. Tom Gullatt and the pastor at Mito as they organized church activities in<br />

the newly opened field. The missionary home is being used for all of the church<br />

services. There are plans for going out into the nearby cities with an evangelistic<br />

program in the very near future.<br />

The preaching mission in November also opened Baptist work in Sendai.<br />

Missionaries Kathryn and Worth Grant moved to the city about two weeks later.<br />

Sendai is a field "white unto harvest" and, though there are several other<br />

denominations in the city, there is no preaching service to be found on any<br />

Sunday evening. The missionaries plan to begin immediately with an evening<br />

preaching service.<br />

Hokkaido<br />

The northernmost point of Southern Baptist work in Japan is the city of<br />

Sapporo. When the Marion Moorhead family' and Miss Annie Hoover went to<br />

the city of Sapporo in the fall of 1952, we opened work, for the first time<br />

on the island of Hokkaido. A national pastor and his wife went to the city<br />

also. An evangelistic meeting has been held, and from this a nucleus has been<br />

formed for the ten different services which are being conducted on Sunday.<br />

Communism and other "isms" are seeking a stronghold on the island of<br />

Hokkaido, but there is a real opportunity to tell the message of Christ and his<br />

love.<br />

Tokyo<br />

Tokyo is considered a separate mission station because of the large numbe<br />

missionaries living there as language students. They give two years of intensive<br />

study to the Japanese language, after which they move to other points in Japan<br />

to begin new churches, work in our schools, and in other ways carry on the<br />

evangelistic program of winning the lost to Christ. Though the missionary's<br />

knowledge of Japanese is limited while he is in language school, opportunities<br />

for service in and around Tokyo are extensive. One major opportunity comes<br />

as a result of the desire of Japanese young people to attend an English class.<br />

Many young people are won to Christ as a direct result of attending an English<br />

Bible class held by new missionaries. As they study English, the young people<br />

also hear and later understand the message of the love of God that caused him<br />

to give his Son for them.<br />

There are six churches in the city of Tokyo, all but one of them self-supporting.<br />

In addition to the churches in the city itself, there are several mission<br />

points and churches two or three hours distant. Some of the language-school<br />

students give their Sundays to teaching Bible classes in these churches.<br />

In Tokyo, Tokiwadai church, where Shuichi Matsumura is pastor, has shown<br />

remarkable growth during the year. Organized in 1950, it became self-supporting<br />

this year and reached a membership of 157. Mr. and Mrs. Calvin Parker and<br />

Miss Frances Horton work with them. The Oi-Machi church building was


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD<br />

finished and dedicated in November. More than 30 people have been baptized<br />

into its membership during the year. In addition to the pastor's able leadership,<br />

the church is blessed with a number of deeply consecrated businessmen and<br />

women to lead in the activities. Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Jackson teach Bible classes<br />

in the church. Missionaries Johnni Johnson and Carl and Ruth Halvarson report<br />

that the opportunities to win and enlist the young people of Mejiro church<br />

are unlimited. Three young people who have surrendered for full-time Christian<br />

service are now studying in the seminary at Fukuoka. In reporting the<br />

activities of the Shinkoiwa church in Tokyo, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Culpepper say:<br />

"During the preaching mission, 12 young people made decisions for full-time<br />

Christian service. One of them is now enrolled in the seminary and another is<br />

a student at Seinan Gakuin." This church has many activities during the week,<br />

among them a service at a newly opened mission point. Other missionaries in<br />

language school and working in and around Tokyo include Mr. and Mrs. Virgil<br />

McWilliams, Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Calcote, Mr. and Mrs. Bud Spencer, Mr. and<br />

Mrs. Leslie Watson, Miss Hannah Barlow and Miss Dottie Lane. The Lord uses<br />

and blesses the work of the missionaries and national Christians in Tokyo, the<br />

heart of Japan's population.<br />

With the coming of medical missionaries in August, Baptists of Japan look<br />

forward to the time when they will be able to have a hospital. Dr. and Mrs.<br />

James Satterwhite and Dr. Audrey Fontnote, the medical missionaries, are now<br />

in language school.<br />

In April of 1952 Dr. and Mrs. Frank Connely, formerly stationed in China,<br />

came to Japan to assume the office of mission treasurer. Miss Lucy Smith, also<br />

of China, works in the treasurer's office as assistant. The Baptist building in<br />

Tokyo houses the Mission offices, the Japan Convention's executive-secretary and<br />

his staff, and the Jordan Press. Mr. and Mrs. E. B. Dozier are located in<br />

Tokyo; Mr. Dozier is head of the publication work, in addition to other duties.<br />

Japanese people read anything and everything—Communist papers, scholarly<br />

works of ancient writers, light flimsy novels, and anything that is printed on<br />

religion. What a privilege! And what a responsibility! Through the printed<br />

word—a tract, a Gospel, or a New Testament—many Japanese have had their<br />

first opportunity to hear of the love of Christ. Our publication department prints<br />

materials that can be used to spread the gospel in Japan.<br />

BAPTIST MISSION IN KOREA<br />

Missionary John A. Abernathy<br />

In spite of continued war and suffering on every hand, it has been a good<br />

year for Baptist work in Korea. In cities and towns all over south Korea new<br />

work has been projected. Almost every week we have reports of a new church<br />

being organized in some place.<br />

At the meeting of the Convention in May, 1951, messengers reported from<br />

forty churches. At the end of 1952, we had 134 churches and missions. In addition<br />

to 1,128 baptisms reported during the year, there have been 8,396 inquirers.<br />

These have professed Christ as Lord and Saviour, but have not yet been baptized.<br />

This does not include the large numbers of Chinese prisoners of war, to whom<br />

we minister weekly, who have confessed Christ. Neither does it include the<br />

large number who signed cards confessing Christ in Pusan during the Billy<br />

Graham meetings.<br />

We all feel that God sent Billy to Korea on this special mission at just the<br />

right time. Baptist missionaries helped in the planning of the meetings and in<br />

carrying out the program. There being no auditorium or tent big enough to accommodate<br />

the large crowds, we were forced to have the meetings in an open-air<br />

park. Cold winds from the north and the nearby snowcapped mountains blew<br />

through the dusty park, but thousands of Koreans and U.S. soldiers and sailors<br />

found their way to the meeting place. The last night, the crowd was estimated<br />

to be ten thousand. The people either sat on straw mats or stood around the<br />

outer edge of the crowd. Billy, dressed in the clothing of a GI, poured out his<br />

heart as he told the old, old story of the cross.<br />

When the invitation was given, hundreds from all over the congregation found<br />

their way to the platform where they confessed their sins and accepted Christ as<br />

Saviour. Over 2,000 signed cards; among them were many of our own American<br />

lads. One U.S. soldier said, "I'd always wanted to hear Billy Graham preach,<br />

but year. Evangelistic had This to come has work all not the only among way been to Chinese Korea most interesting, to prisoners-of-war hear him but and very to has get fruitful. continued saved." Every through week<br />

God has called to preach and who are doing all they can to help in tne^services<br />

when we do not go. I often say, "The door for witnessing to Chinese inJ^ina<br />

was closed, but God made it possible for Chinese to come to Korea where we<br />

could help them with the gospel." . , ,. , ., ,,<br />

Many of our American boys have been saved or revived through the weekly<br />

service we have in the Pusan Baptist Church. While we are here primarily to<br />

work with Koreans, it is a joy to be able to minister to these men who are so<br />

far away from their own homes. .<br />

Four Bible classes have been conducted weekly m the church in Pusan with<br />

splendid results. As many as 150 are in attendance at one of these classes. A<br />

number have been saved during the year, and baptized.<br />

Medical Work<br />

For awhile a doctor of another mission and the medical men connected with<br />

United Nations Civil Assistance Corps had difficulty believing the bi-monthly<br />

reports Dr. N. A. Bryan and his staff turned in. They wondered how it<br />

could be possible to see and treat so many patients with such a limited staff and<br />

crowded quarters.<br />

In December, 1951, Dr. Bryan with one Korean doctor and two nurses<br />

opened a clinic in an old tent. Only a few patients came each day for some<br />

time. When the rooms of the clinic were prepared and they moved in, the<br />

number of patients increased from the first day. During most of the past year<br />

Dr. Bryan and his staff of four Korean doctors and three nurses have seen<br />

around 300 patients daily. Nearly all are refugees and have no money to pay.<br />

All treatments and medicines are given free. During the year there were 53,138<br />

treatments given to 14,538 people. Before the people see the doctors they have<br />

opportunity to hear the gospel from two evangelists who are in the hospital for<br />

this purpose. Large numbers of Gospels and tracts are given to the people to<br />

read and take home with them. Not only has the medical work been a great<br />

blessing to the needy people, but many sin-sick souls have found the Great<br />

Physician and received spiritual healing.<br />

Relief Work<br />

This report would not be complete without telling about the relief program<br />

that has been carried on. With the continuation of war, it has been necessary<br />

to continue relief among the thousands of suffering people. Few of the refugees<br />

from north Korea have been able to return to their homes. Thousands are still<br />

dependent on us for food and clothing. During the year we used $59,174.17 for<br />

all phases of relief. More than 30,000 were helped with money for food. Five<br />

hundred students from Baptist homes were helped to attend college and high<br />

school. Many of these have dedicated their lives for special service whereyer<br />

the Lord leads and are already working where they are. Pastors and other<br />

workers and many widows and orphans have been helped with relief funds. Many<br />

wounded Korean soldiers and their families have been helped. Fifty churches<br />

have been built, rehabilitated, or assisted in completion. These are only a few of<br />

the many ways your money has been used to help in the alleviation of suffering<br />

and anxiety, and in the advance of Christ's Kingdom.<br />

Missionary Rex Ray has been in charge of the distribution of relief clothing<br />

and has done an excellent job. We'll quote from a recent report of his:<br />

"During summer, fall and winter I have been delivering relief clothing all<br />

over south Korea. Recently, within five days time I traveled about 1,000 miles<br />

and distributed about three tons of clothing in the northwest and northeast<br />

corners of south Korea. During the past three months Mike Chu and I distributed<br />

some 15 tons of clothing to those who shiver m the biting cold winds as<br />

war marches on its bloody way across the battlefields of suffering Korea. Recentlv<br />

mv assistant and I stopped for the night in a Korean inn Working there<br />

was a little orphan girl. After she had our tiny room ready for us to make<br />

down our sleeping bags for the night she told us how the war had left her and<br />

her little brother homeless. When she had finished her heartbreaking story I<br />

'Now save didn't her I tell have some her enough but money. early money next Her to thin morning buy little a shirt we face for pulled broke my back small into the brother. a tarp smile on as Mike top she of and said, our<br />

hired truck and dug into your relief boxes of clothing. It wasn't long until<br />

that shivering little orphan girl and her little brother were warmly clothed with<br />

clothing that had once kept your own children warm. And our pay? Yes, we got<br />

that too. As Mike and I looked into those two happy faces we saw smiles<br />

that silver and gold could not buy. I think Jesus was watching, and happy<br />

too. No wonder these homeless orphans wanted to go with us on our way. They<br />

felt that somewhere in the world were loving hearts who had sent them the<br />

warm clothes and who would take them in from the storm that rages around<br />

their lonely, homeless little hearts. During my first four months in Korea I saw<br />

more than 1,000 people publicly confess Jesus as Saviour and Lord. After that,<br />

there were so many who believed that we couldn't count them. So, I just quit<br />

trying and leave the results with the Lord. Everywhere I go I try to carry<br />

out the commission, 'Preach as ye go.'"<br />

One of the happiest events of the year was Mrs. Abernathy's return to Korea<br />

in September. We are now looking for others to join our number. We need<br />

many God-called, Spirit-filled missionaries for Korea.<br />

MEMBERSHIP DOUBLED IN FORMOSA<br />

Missionary Josephine Ward<br />

"I was born in North China, but was grown in wandering," is the way a<br />

freshman in the national University of Formosa began his autobiography. He is<br />

typical of the several million people from the mainland of China who are now<br />

in Formosa. As the missionaries are Mandarin-speaking, the church members<br />

are mostly from that group. Some Taiwanese who understand Mandarin are<br />

being saved, and all seven of the Baptist churches are becoming more aware of<br />

the idol-worshiping Taiwanese. Some churches have one or both of the Sunday<br />

services interpreted into Taiwanese.<br />

The purchase of a beautiful site for a summer conference ground on Grass<br />

Mountain, nine minutes by car from the Baptist Seminary, made possible three<br />

conferences last summer. With minimum equipment, there were maximum<br />

results. Teachers for Vacation Bible schools were brought to Taipeh for a workshop,<br />

and uniform programs were carried out in all our churches.<br />

The opening of a Baptist seminary in Taipeh in the fall of 195^2 wl **<br />

students under the leadership of Dr. C. L. Culpepper, Sr., is perhaps the most<br />

outstanding event of the year. Dr. Culpepper and Dr. Y. K. Chang, m addition<br />

to their seminary work, bless all the churches with their preaching and tfiDle<br />

teaching. Miss Martha Franks takes time from her seminary duties to teach<br />

the Bible to 70 business and professional men, many of whom are not

met five nights for their Week of Prayer for foreign missions, using the printed<br />

material sent out by W.M.U. Headquarters in Hong Kong, but spent half of the<br />

time on their knees in prayer for the various countries and their needs. On<br />

Wednesday nights in a nearby village about fifty children and adults attend<br />

services held in a Japanese-style house. These children probably know more<br />

songs and Bible verses than most corresponding groups in the States—this in<br />

spite of the fact that most of them are from pagan homes in which neither<br />

parent has ever heard the gospel before. On Saturday nights about 50 converts,<br />

mostly men, attend a class in preparation for baptism and church membership.<br />

Chiayi<br />

The Chiayi work was opened as a chapel by the Kaohsiung Church. In<br />

December of 1951, Missionary Olive Lawton and Mrs. Wang Shou Hsin moved<br />

to this field. As there was no central meeting place, services were held in three<br />

locations. The day the church was organized in June of 1952, its first meeting<br />

was held in a new bamboo shelter which was to serve as the temporary place of<br />

worship. A new building is being erected opposite the postoffice. Marie Conner<br />

returned from America to begin fall work when Miss Lawton went on furlough.<br />

Tainan<br />

Missionary Bertha Smith opened work in Tainan in May. After Dr. Y. K.<br />

Chang's three-weeks evangelistic meeting in the city auditorium, followed by<br />

three weeks of Bible teaching, there came to be a steady Sunday congregation<br />

of from 60 to 80, and from 30 to 40 in attendance on Wednesday nights. The<br />

city auditorium is still rented for these services. Two Sunday afternoon meetings<br />

are conducted for children, in which 300 are learning about the Saviour. Nine<br />

services are held each week. Sixty people have asked to be charter members<br />

when the church is organized. Among them are about 20 Baptists from the<br />

mainland, some of whom are graduates of our Baptist schools.<br />

a<br />

Kaohsiung<br />

The church at Kaohsiung is rejoicing over a lovely new building which was<br />

dedicated in the fall of 1952 before Miss Clifford Barratt left for furlough. She<br />

and Miss Mary Sampson have filled their time with regular church work, English<br />

Bible classes, work with individuals, visiting in homes, hospitals, and jails, and<br />

many other activities. During the year the church has received 94 members<br />

by baptism. A kindergarten with 80 children was opened in September. The<br />

church has an English service on Sunday afternoons. Missionary Lorene Tilford,<br />

_ who moved to Kaohsiung in the summer, is working with the church,<br />

teaching English Bible classes, and conducting regular radio hours.<br />

Conclusion<br />

Mr. Bob Bratcher of Wayland College spent the summer here holding fruitfu<br />

meetings. The island was also blessed by the visits of Dr. and Mrs. A. Hope<br />

Owen of Plainview, Texas, Mr. Glendon McCullough of Georgia, and Dr. B. J.<br />

Cauthen, Secretary for the Orient. The coming of missionary reinforcements<br />

has been truly heartening, yet three sections in the south are still without<br />

resident pastors.<br />

Half of the present church members on the island were baptized this year.<br />

Prayer and wisdom are needed to train these babes in Christ.<br />

HONG KONG-MACAO MISSION ORGANIZED<br />

Missionary Mary C. Alexander<br />

The Hong Kong-Macao Baptist Mission of the Southern Baptist Convention,<br />

formerly a part of the South China Mission, was formally organized on May 23,<br />

1952. The missionary staff of the two stations has been changing almost constantly.


170 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Hong Kong<br />

In the area generally known as Hong Kong is the island of Hong Kong plus<br />

suburban Kowloon and the rural New Territories across Hong Kong vayon a<br />

peninsula of mainland China in the British leased territories. . The population<br />

has increased from about 900,000 in 1931 to nearly 2,500,000 in l yi) ^ <br />

one-half of 1 per cent are European and American; the other 99 h per cent are<br />

Chinese. Thousands of refugees from mainland China's eighteen provinces have<br />

poured into Hong Kong since 1949. The crowded living conditions m inadequate<br />

and expensive housing areas are indescribable. Innumerable wooden and grassmat<br />

squatter huts cover hills and valleys throughout the city. Ihey house the<br />

homeless, destitute, sick and jobless refugee population, posing for government,<br />

civic, and church leaders an almost unparalleled problem.<br />

Churches<br />

In Hong Kong there are eight organized churches and eight outstations, not<br />

including one other opened by the Hong Kong Baptist women's organization and<br />

one directly under Caine Road Baptist Church. These churches and chapels reported<br />

550 baptisms this year and an approximate total membership of 7,000.<br />

For Sunday school, an enrolment of 2,000 was reported; for young people's<br />

organizations, more than 1,000; and for W.M.S., nearly 600.<br />

The oldest church in the Hong Kong area in point of continued existence is the<br />

Cheung Chow Baptist Church, which was organized on Cheung Chow Island in<br />

1842. Their new building was dedicated on December 6, 1952. Caine Road<br />

Baptist Church (Hong Kong's First Baptist Church) and one of the Swatow<br />

Baptist churches hope to occupy new buildings in early 1953. Hillwood Road<br />

Baptist Church is planning for enlarged church facilities to meet the Christian<br />

opportunities in their central location. A growing Sunday school consciousness<br />

and effective young people's work are evident in the life of this church. Aberdeen<br />

Baptist Church, the church of the fisher-folks on Hong Kong Island, is in a<br />

building program. Stirling Road Baptist Church in Kowloon City has good<br />

Sunday school and graded young people's work carried on by its paid and<br />

volunteer staffs. An excellent Vacation Bible school was carried on in the<br />

summer of 1952. <strong>Services</strong> in English are held each Sunday morning.<br />

The Hong Kong Baptist Association, through its officers and its six boards and<br />

committees, has very effectively united and strengthened Baptist work. Two<br />

summer conferences for young people were held in July. A Hong Kong "Ridgecrest"<br />

is a "must" for the Hong Kong Baptist Association.<br />

Schools<br />

Schools in the Hong Kong station include one theological seminary, three<br />

kindergartens, five elementary schools, and five high schools, with approximately<br />

5,500 enrolled and 255 teachers, including five foreign missionary teachers.<br />

The theological seminary enrolled about 25 students, five of whom graduated<br />

in June and now hold places of responsibility, four in Hong Kong Baptist<br />

churches, and one in Malaya. There are six Chinese and four missionary<br />

teachers. The most urgent needs of the seminary are more dormitory space and<br />

auxiliary rooms, better equipment, and a stronger Chinese staff.<br />

Pooi To Girls' School, still in rented buildings, has an enrolment of more than<br />

1,200, with a staff of 60, including three missionary teachers. More than 75<br />

professions of faith were made in the fall of 1952 in meetings held by Dr.<br />

Y. K. Chang of Formosa. More than 250 girls are enlisted in Sunday school and<br />

B.Y.P.M.O. work. Plans have been begun for a sorely needed administration<br />

and classroom building.<br />

Pooi Ching School owns its own buildings and campus. The enrolment in all<br />

grades, and including boys and girls, is nearly 3,200. The faculty numbers more<br />

than 200, including one missionary teacher. An enlargement building program<br />

is in progress.<br />

Henrietta Hall Shuck Memorial School (Chinese name Hin Lei) has an enrolment<br />

of about 150 boys and girls. Students from this school placed beautiful<br />

flowers on Mrs. Shuck's grave in October at the time of the Hong Kong Baptist<br />

WMU.'s annual pilgrimage to the grave. Mrs. Shuck "though dead yet<br />

speaketh" of love, loyalty, and sacrifice.<br />

Either kindergartens, literacy classes, day schools for refugees, night classes,<br />

of or classes the Hong for Kong underprivileged station.<br />

are operated by nearly all the churches and chapels


Publication Work<br />

FOREIGN MISSION BOARD 171<br />

Baptist publication work in Hong Kong has recently been named "Baptist<br />

Press. Our number of tract titles was brought up to 50 by the addition of 15<br />

"®w titles in 1952. Some 1,000,000 tracts were printed and distributed during<br />

1952. Among these were three special issues of 100,000 each for two special<br />

B.Y.P M.O. Tract Distribution days in Hong Kong and for one Tract Day in<br />

Taipeh, Formosa. Four special Christmas tracts, as well as other Christmas<br />

materials in cards, carols, playlets, and devotional books, were widely used during<br />

the holiday season. About 25,000 portions of Sunday school literature were<br />

printed and distributed to the churches in Hong Kong, Formosa, Philippines,<br />

Malaya, Indonesia, and Thailand. About fifteen study course books have been<br />

put on the market, most of them reprints. In March, an issue of 10,000<br />

number-word edition of the Baptist Hymnal was prepared and distributed.<br />

Urgent _ requests have come for music editions of the Baptist hymnal, Everybody<br />

Sings, for young people and a children's song book and plans for them<br />

have been put in motion. W.M.U. manuals and quarterlies and B.Y.P.M.O.<br />

graded materials were also ready for use in the fourth quarter of 1952. Vacation<br />

Bible school and literacy manual and primers have also been prepared for<br />

use by the churches and church groups.<br />

Macao<br />

The one Baptist church in Macao brings the total of organized churches in<br />

the Hong Kong-Macao Mission to nine. In the Macao Baptist Church an effective<br />

program of evangelism and training is outstanding. A new fire-proof termiteresistant<br />

building with an auditorium of 800 capacity and classrooms of 500<br />

capacity, is now the pride and joy of Macao Baptists. The Sunday school enrolment<br />

is 360, and the B.Y.P.M.O. enrolment is 260. An event of historic interest<br />

in the church was the passing of Mrs. Sun Yat Sen, a faithful member<br />

for 37 years and a deaconess for 27 years. Seven young people from the<br />

church are studying for full-time Christian service.<br />

Pooi To School and Pooi Ching School in Macao are still in operation, but<br />

with enrolment off by 50 per cent as compared with pre-Communist days. They<br />

have suffered in many ways from the Communist influence among teachers and<br />

students.<br />

Some publication work has been done in Macao. Program materials, daily<br />

Bible reading and prayer guides, and a number of special doctrinal booklets have<br />

been prepared by the missionary staff and their Chinese co-workers.<br />

FIRST YEAR IN INDONESIA<br />

Missionary W. B. Johnson<br />

January 1, 1952, found Missionaries Charles Cowherd, Stockwell Sears,<br />

and W. B. Johnson living at the Homan Hotel in Bandung. They had visas valid<br />

until January 24. On January 11, a house was secured in Bandung, and the<br />

three missionaries moved in. Charles Cowherd immediately returned to the<br />

Philippines to apply for permanent visa for himself and family. Sears and<br />

Johnson got their visas extended two and three months, respectively. On<br />

February 25, the Indonesian Government granted to Southern Baptists the<br />

privilege to establish and carry on mission work in Indonesia. Mr. and<br />

Mrs. Cowherd arrived in March; Mr. Sears and Mr. Johnson received permanent<br />

visas in May; Mrs. Sears arrived in June, and Mrs. Johnson in September.<br />

In the meantime, a second house was purchased in Bandung and made into<br />

two apartments and a classroom. It will be used to house the missionaries while<br />

they are studying the Indonesian language. Dr. and Mrs. Buford L. Nichols<br />

arrived November 14; Miss Catherine Walker and Miss Grace Wells arrived in<br />

December just in time for Christmas. This gives us a total of four families and<br />

two single ladies.<br />

Rev. and Mrs. Charles Cowherd were assigned to work in Bandung. On May<br />

11, the Baptist Chapel was opened in Bandung and began services in the<br />

English language. Mr. Cowherd is the minister in charge; the other missionaries<br />

assisted where they could. Interest and attendance have been good from the<br />

start. The group was organized as the First Baptist Church of Bandung on<br />

November 23, with 20 charter members, including seven received by baptism.<br />

Since that time there have been two additions by letter and one by baptism,


172 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

bringing the total membership to 23. In addition to the Sunday school at, the<br />

church, Mrs. Cowherd has a Sunday school in her home every s un da £,?~*,'<br />

noon. In the two Sunday schools, classes are taught in the English, uninebe,<br />

Indonesian, and Dutch languages.<br />

Land has been purchased and missionary residences are being built "J Soerabaja<br />

and in Jakarta. Mr. and Mrs. Sears will go to Soerabaja, and Mr and<br />

Mrs. Johnson will move to Jakarta early in January, 1953 to begin work in the<br />

two cities. A building in Jakarta has also been purchased to provide space for<br />

a chapel and offices for the mission headquarters for Indonesia. Since the arrival<br />

of Dr. and Mrs. Nichols and Miss Walker, efforts are being made to secure<br />

property for missionary residences in Semarang.<br />

Plans are in the making for the beginning of medical work during 1953. Some<br />

medical missionaries have already been assigned to Indonesia, and we are looking<br />

forward to their coming during the next few months. Other workers for direct<br />

evangelistic work will also be coming as soon as visas can be obtained for them.<br />

The Indonesian mission was organized November 28.<br />

As we look back over our first year in Indonesia our hearts are filled with<br />

gratitude and praise to God for his bountiful mercy and blessings. It has been<br />

an experience in which the Lord has opened door after door which seemed<br />

closed to us. Truly, he has undertaken for us and much has been accomplished.<br />

We thank God and take courage as we go forward with plans and expectations<br />

for even greater progress in the coming year.<br />

BAPTIST EXPANSION IN MALAYA<br />

Missionary Louise Hill<br />

In the Malaya Mission there are three mission stations: Singapore, Kuala<br />

Lumpur, and Alor Star.<br />

Three missionaries represent Southern Baptists in Singapore, a British Crown<br />

Colony of more than a million people. We are happy in the blessings of the Lord<br />

upon the work at the Gospel Center, where Lora Clement has been living all this<br />

year. She and a national co-worker have been conducting children's classes, a<br />

Bible study class for women, and a Bible class in English for Intermediates. They<br />

have conducted two Vacation Bible schools of two weeks' duration each, one at<br />

the Easter vacation and the other during the summer. In addition to regular<br />

evangelistic services on Wednesday and Sunday evenings, there have been five<br />

revival meetings. Several adults and young people who accepted the Lord early<br />

in the year have been faithful in attendance. Although there have not been<br />

great numbers of people saved, the seed has been sown; and much of it, we<br />

trust, has fallen on good soil. Sunday school work at the Gospel Center, the<br />

Cantonese Church, and the Swatow Church has grown this year. At the Gospel<br />

Center, as many as 88 have attended, at the Cantonese Church 69, and at the<br />

Swatow Church 85. Also an English service has been introduced at the<br />

Cantonese Church on Sunday afternoon because we feel that many Chinese,<br />

Indians, and Caucasians need such a service.<br />

Kuala Lumpur, the second of our stations and the capital of the Federation<br />

of Malaya, is in Selangor State in the west central portion of Malaya. Our<br />

work is carried on at an Evangelistic Center, where Missionary Jessie Green<br />

and her national co-workers conduct literacy classes for children, a special<br />

English Bible-class, Sunday school, Training Union, prayer meetings, and worship<br />

services. They have had a program of regular visitation in a hospital and<br />

evangelistic services in an old ladies' home, in addition to the work at the Center.<br />

There have been many professions of faith, and seven people were baptized on<br />

December 14. For most of the year there has been one missionary and one<br />

Chinese teacher for all the work except Sunday school, in which two others<br />

helped. At present, there is a Chinese evangelist in addition to these. The<br />

biggest event of the year in our Mission was the organization of the Kuala<br />

Lumpur Baptist Church on December 14, with eighteen charter members. All<br />

the missionaries and representatives from each of the Baptist churches were<br />

present for this important occasion.<br />

The third of our stations is Alor Star in Kedah, a state in far northwest<br />

Malay In this city is the strongest Baptist church in Malaya, and the only one<br />

that has constructed a house of worship. Its members attend with enthusiasm<br />

fh \-Vi e l* n & the need of help, they pleaded for a missionary to come to work<br />

with them in the local church and in the outlying districts. With rejoicing, they<br />

nave welcomed Elizabeth Hale, our lone missionary addition of 1952, to join<br />

hands in the work.<br />

MISSION TO THE FILIPINO PEOPLE<br />

Missionary Mary Lucile Saunders<br />

God often uses periods of strain to open more doors, for when his workers<br />

are forced to lean upon him, he can work through them better. It has been<br />

so in the Philippines during 1952. Although the missionaries frequently found<br />

themselves twins and triplets in spirit if not in body, the work has grown; not<br />

easily, not as rapidly as increased personnel would have made possible, but<br />

it has grown steadily. We give God the credit and the glory.<br />

The heaviest strain came from growing work and unusually limited missionary<br />

personnel with the added handicap of Mandarin-speaking missionaries<br />

working with Fukienese- or Cantonese-speaking Chinese. Of the regular<br />

Philippine Mission personnel, Miss Theresa Anderson has been home on furlough,<br />

and leaving on furlough during the year have been Miss Fern Harrington, Mr.<br />

and Mrs. Clyde Jowers, Mr. and Mrs. Bill Solesbee, Miss Margaret Collins, and<br />

Mr. and Mrs. Jimmy Foster. Also, two couples, Mr. and Mrs. Carl Hunker and<br />

Mr. and Mrs. Max Pettit, were reassigned to Formosa; and in September Mrs.<br />

John Abernathy was privileged to rejoin her husband in Korea. Only eight<br />

replacements reached the field: Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Larson, Miss Virginia Mathis<br />

and Miss Mary Lucile Saunders in April, Dr. Winston Crawley in July, Mrs.<br />

Crawley in October, and Mrs. and Mrs. Bob Ricketson in November. Only Mr.<br />

and Mrs. J. E. Jackson, Dr. Frank Lide, Miss Elaine Crotwell, Miss Vicky<br />

Parsons, and Miss Virginia Miles were here throughout the year.<br />

From one organized Chinese Baptist church in Baguio in 1951, the church<br />

work has grown to five new Baptist churches organized in 1952 (three Chinese<br />

churches in Dagupan, Manila, and Davao, and two Filipino churches in Dagupan<br />

and Davao) and one Baptist church (Filipino) organized in Cotaba, Mindanao,<br />

which has qualified for affiliation with Southern Baptists. Membership has grown<br />

from 19 in 1951 to over 150 in 1952.<br />

A Youth Retreat for Chinese young people was held in Baguio with 57 attending.<br />

Of those who dedicated their lives to full-time Christian service, three<br />

are students of the opening class of the Baptist Bible school and seminary. Also<br />

held were three Vacation Bible schools for Chinese children and nine for<br />

Filipinos, through which over 800 children were taught of Jesus and more than<br />

100 Chinese and Filipino young people were trained through service as they<br />

helped the missionaries.<br />

After months of negotiations with the Philippine authorities, the Baptist Bible<br />

school and seminary was opened in Baguio in the summer, with Dr. Lide as<br />

head, assisted by Dr. Crawley and later Dr. Ricketson. For the first year, only<br />

Chinese students were accepted. There have been six full-time students, one<br />

part-time, and four auditors. The department for the training of Filipino<br />

leaders is scheduled to open in 1953.<br />

Baguio, the site of our first work in the Philippines, remains the strongest<br />

center for Chinese work. In the fall, the church family dedicated Southern<br />

Baptists' first church building in the Islands. In Dagupan, with no missionary<br />

couple replacing the Solesbees, the newly organized Chinese Baptist church has<br />

been served by a seminary student as preacher and Miss Pai, one of the language<br />

teachers, as Sunday school superintendent. In Manila, the new church moved,<br />

shortly after organization, into a Fukienese area in the heart of the Tondo<br />

Chinese section. Although the missionaries have become linguistically "deaf and<br />

dumb," the young members of the church have stepped forward to take responsibilities<br />

so that church activities have been expanded to include evening<br />

Story Hour and Junior Training Union for the Fukienese children, the missionaries<br />

supervising. A most joyful Christmas experience was the organization<br />

of the Chinese Baptist church in Davao. Of the four Chinese churches, two have<br />

missionary pastors, one a Bible-school student preacher, and one no pastor at all.<br />

morning baptismal service where Mr. Jackson baptized 43 from Davao and 1/<br />

from Bunawan outstation, the Emmanuel Baptist Church was organized in<br />

Davao. The record for their first four months has been 57 baptisms and a<br />

growth to a total membership of 80. Of the two Filipino Baptist churches, one<br />

has a missionary pastor, and one is without a pastor.<br />

With the church groups progressing to where both teaching and training organizations<br />

were needed, the Mission set up a Promotion Committee, with Rev.<br />

Ivan Larson as chairman, to co-ordinate the teaching and training activities of<br />

the churches and the preparation of study materials. The Committee suggested<br />

that the churches, both Filipino and Chinese, have two basic organizations:<br />

(1) a graded Sunday school, the Bible teaching and study organization, and<br />

(2) a Missionary Union, the training and missionary service organization, with<br />

Sunbeams, Royal Ambassadors, Girl Ambassadors, Baptist Young People's<br />

Union, and Baptist Adult Union. The literature committee then set up a<br />

curriculum for study courses and materials for use in the organizations.<br />

For these evidences of God's power and blessings we are most grateful. We<br />

wish to express our appreciation for the many intercessory prayers that have<br />

made possible progress for God in the Philippines. We ask your continued<br />

prayers that the necessary personnel and co-workers will be made available.<br />

We would not close any of God's doors.<br />

THAILAND NEEDS MISSIONARIES<br />

Missionary Polly Morris<br />

Progress has been steady in the Thailand mission in 1952. Missionaries tota<br />

15, six new ones having arrived in 1952; seven left for furlough.<br />

Southern Baptists have one organized church in Bangkok, Grace Baptist<br />

Church. Its membership includes Chinese, Indians, Americans, and one Thai.<br />

Grace Church moved in April from meeting in a missionary home to a large<br />

rented building, adequate for worship services and growing Sunday school and<br />

young people's work. Two large plate-glass windows in front give unique opportunity<br />

for Thai and Chinese evangelistic displays. There have been 14<br />

baptisms this year and 10 additions by letter, making a total membership of 44.<br />

The church has been divided into two groups, one worshiping in Chinese and the<br />

other in English translated into Thai. Each group conducts its own Sunday<br />

school and evangelistic services, thus looking toward the organization in the<br />

future of a separate Thai church.<br />

Thai work had its beginning early in 1952 with evangelistic work among<br />

Thai students by Missionaries Frances Hudgins and Mary Gould through a<br />

Sunday Bible class in their home. In May, Missionary Harold Reeves began<br />

conducting week-night evangelistic services, an English Sunday school class was<br />

begun for Thai, and the English worship service was translated into Thai.<br />

Recently a record number of 33 Thai attended the service. Two professions of<br />

faith have resulted from these efforts.<br />

Baptists carry on chapel work in two Chinese areas of Bangkok. The Hai<br />

Tien Lou chapel has a fine nucleus of young people who were reached this year<br />

through the medium of English classes organized by Miss Margie Shumate and<br />

carried on with the understanding that all students would remain after classes<br />

for evangelistic services and choir practice. It has been quite successful, about<br />

30 young people attending. At a Saturday afternoon Sunday school for the<br />

neighborhood children, average attendance is about 50. Both groups are encouraged<br />

to attend the Grace Church services, and bus transportation is provided.<br />

National workers and missionaries visit in the chapel neighborhood<br />

weekly.<br />

The second chapel was opened in January, 1952. It fronts on a busy street<br />

where people pass continually. <strong>Services</strong> are held several nights each week.<br />

Many Chinese and Thai stop to listen, the majority standing outside. Thousands<br />

of tracts have been given out. A Bible woman lives above the chapel and does<br />

baptism and two are awaiting baptism. Others have indicated a desire to believe.<br />

Missionaries Deaver Lawton and Gladys Hopewell, with several Chinese<br />

workers, carry on this work.<br />

In October, a Bible school was opened with five Chinese students preparing<br />

for Christian service. At present its classes are held in the church building.<br />

Baptists' first interior station in Thailand is being opened by Mr. and Mrs.<br />

Deaver Lawton. At the site of the old capital, Ayuthia, a chapel was opened on<br />

August 6, 1952. We praise the Lord for a building with an open front on the<br />

main street of this city of 200,000, where three evangelistic services, Sunday<br />

school, an inquirer's class, and English Bible class are held each weekend. While<br />

about 28 have made a public confession of faith in Christ, seven give signs of<br />

really being born again. In January, 1953, Ayuthia will be established as a<br />

mission station with a missionary in residence.<br />

Street preaching has been done in a number of other cities and villages with<br />

the hope that other chapels can be opened soon. Over thirty provinces are still<br />

without Christian witness. Thailand needs missionaries.<br />

Report of Business Manager<br />

LOUIS P. SEAY<br />

Staff Personnel<br />

On January 1, 1952, the Foreign Mission Board headquarters staff consisted<br />

of 50 persons—13 men and 37 women. On December 31, it consisted of 54 persons—two<br />

men and one woman having been added to the audio-visual aids department<br />

and one man to the treasurer's department. In order to provide additional<br />

room needed by the audio-visual aids department, it was necessary to<br />

convert two rooms in the Board's headquarters—which were formerly equipped<br />

for the use of missionaries visiting the Board—into a studio, one of the rooms<br />

being sound-proofed and air-conditioned. With this additional space and some new<br />

equipment, this department is now in a position to carry out 90 per cent of the<br />

total production of all audio-visual aids material.<br />

Transportation<br />

Boat and plane passage was secured during 1952 for 353 persons—81 couples,<br />

55 single persons, and 136 children. Twenty couples, 22 single persons and 31<br />

children were sent to Hawaii and the Orient; 42 couples, 14 single persons, and<br />

82 children were sent to South America; 19 couples, 19 single persons, and 23<br />

children were sent to Africa, Europe and the Near East. The above listing includes<br />

new appointees and those returning from furlough. In addition to securing<br />

boat and plane tickets, many other details were involved in getting these<br />

missionaries to their fields of service—details such as passports, visas, inoculations,<br />

packing and shipping, travel funds, and hotel reservations. No one, however,<br />

missed the boat.<br />

Purchasing<br />

The Board's purchasing department now handles practically all of the equipment<br />

and supplies needed by our hospitals, clinics, schools, and churches in<br />

foreign countries, as well as a large percentage of the personal needs of 900<br />

missionaries. Such purchases are made through the export departments of many<br />

of the largest manufacturers and distributors in the U.S.A. The annual volume<br />

of purchases, including the operational needs of the headquarters office, total<br />

approximately $300,000. This phase of the Board's operations is a very worthwhile<br />

service which is reflected in savings, to the missionaries particularly, of<br />

20 to 50 per cent. The department can be compared to a business firm with<br />

900 customers being operated by two persons.<br />

Literature and Mailing Department<br />

Rachel N. Dickson, Director<br />

The Board's literature and mailing department mailed out 581,860 tracts,<br />

pamphlets, maps and picture posters during 1952. A total of 30,000 packets of<br />

printed material on the New Areas were assembled and 52,000 Leaders' Helps<br />

with attractive covers were run on the new Multilith machine. These were sent<br />

to the W.M.U. organizations throughout the South. Eleven months of the year,<br />

26,862 World Digests and 9,259 Infograms are sent each month.


176 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Rachel N. Dickson, Director<br />

Schools of Missions<br />

More than one hundred schools of missions have been reported during the<br />

year, with 321 conversions, 1,173 lives dedicated to Christian service, and 1,152<br />

subscriptions to The Commission. Many churches and associations indicated<br />

that gifts to the Cooperative Program would be increased in lyod.<br />

The associations reported that the churches were enthusiastic over the responses<br />

of the people and messages of the missionaries. They seem to have<br />

reached a high spiritual level, and often the mission offerings were more than<br />

doubled.<br />

Missionary Education and Promotion<br />

FRANK K. MEANS, Secretary<br />

The creation of a "holy discontent" is, in a sense, one purpose of the B<br />

department of Missionary Education and Promotion. It deliberately seeks to<br />

create a "holy discontent" with what Southern Baptists are doing to meet the<br />

spiritual and physical needs of our world.<br />

That the program is succeeding is evident from several considerations: (1)<br />

the Board's income through the Cooperative Program and the Lottie Moon<br />

Offering is steadily increasing, (2) the crisis faced by the Board in October,<br />

1951, was met with sympathetic concern in virtually every area of the Southern<br />

Baptist Convention, and (3) missionary-minded Southern Baptists, in ever increasing<br />

numbers, are giving constructive thought to new schemes and plans<br />

whereby our people generally can be led to underwrite a missionary undertaking<br />

commensurate with the material and spiritual resources we possess.<br />

"Advance Into New Areas" was the mission study theme for 1952. The Board's<br />

work has expanded, since 1940, into twenty new areas: Colombia, Costa Rica,<br />

Ecuador, Formosa, Gold Coast, Guatemala, Hawaii, Honduras, Indonesia, Jordan,<br />

Korea, Lebanon, Malaya, Paraguay, Peru, the Philippines, Southern Rhodesia,<br />

Switzerland, Thailand, and Venezuela. This fact made it imperative for the<br />

people in the churches to become better acquainted with these new areas.<br />

"Foreign Missions is Absolutely Dependent Upon Local Support" was adopted<br />

as the Board's promotional slogan for 1952—the first time such a slogan had<br />

been employed in the Board's promotional activities.<br />

Five promotional emphases, set forth in the following order, were implemented<br />

in a variety of ways: 1952 Calendar of Activities, January and February;<br />

The Commission, March and April; Ridgecrest Assembly, May, June, and July;<br />

the Cooperative Program, September and October; Lottie Moon Offering, November<br />

and December.<br />

The program and preliminary arrangements for the Foreign Missions Conference,<br />

Ridgecrest, were completed by the department. "Onward—'Tis Our<br />

Lord's Command" was the conference theme.<br />

THE COMMISSION<br />

Frank K. Means, Editor; lone Gray, Associate Editor;<br />

Virginia Lee Priddy, Circulation Manager<br />

The circulation of The Commission is somewhat larger than last year. Encouraged<br />

by the increase, we nevertheless are definitely of the opinion that our<br />

world journal does not reach as large a section of our constituency as it should.<br />

On the financial side, The Commission received more income than in 1951,<br />

but was forced to use the additional income to pay rising production costs.<br />

Since there seems little prospect of any decline in production costs, the magazine's<br />

financial position can only be improved by enlarged income.<br />

Paper for the November and December issues cost $500 per issue more than<br />

usual, due to a strike at the West Virginia Paper Company. The company went<br />

on strike in July, 1952, and did not return to normal production until after<br />

Thanksgiving.<br />

Our printer had a sufficient supply of paper to take care of the September<br />

and October issues. For November and December, however, we were forced to<br />

pay more for paper which was not so well suited for our purposes.


FOREIGN MISSION BOARD 177<br />

f i, * S . S .*7 has been very successful in enlisting missionaries who are known<br />

ari?? £ ^^.S ability. Steps have also been taken to orient all of our missionto^<br />

* s of material which are best suited for release through various<br />

meuia oi propaganda. The effectiveness of what is being done should become<br />

even more apparent with the passage of time.<br />

1 ne commission called attention regularly to our educational and promotional<br />

resources by means of regular pages or columns: Fon H. Scofield, Jr., wrote a<br />

monthly page devoted to audio-visual aids. Miss Genevieve Greer edited a regular<br />

book page; which featured books bearing directly or indirectly upon mission<br />

study. Miss Elizabeth Minshew listed current mission study and promotional<br />

pamphlets m a regular column.<br />

AUDIO-VISUAL AIDS<br />

Fon H. Scofield, Jr., Secretary for Audio-Visual Aids<br />

Mrs. E. D. Bailey, Assistant<br />

The Foreign Mission Board, in April, 1952, approved a visual education<br />

project in field missions. The action called for additional personnel, new equipment,<br />

and funds for a production budget. Suitable personnel were recruited and<br />

high fidelity equipment secured during the last months of the year. Provision<br />

was made in the 1953 budget for a production fund. This bold new venture<br />

promises to be of far-reaching significance.<br />

The reception given audio-visual aids prepared by the Board's staff is a clear<br />

indication that the churches appreciate the work that is being done and are<br />

eager to use our films and filmstrips. Four films and nine filmstrips were released<br />

during 1952:<br />

Films<br />

They That were Scattered Abroad, a 24-minute sound film in black and white.<br />

The story of a twentieth-century diaspora as our missionaries formerly serving<br />

in China "scatter abroad preaching the Word" in Korea, Japan, Formosa, Hong<br />

Kong, Malaya, the Philippine Islands, Thailand, Macao, and Indonesia.<br />

MISSION STUDY BOOKS<br />

Genevieve Greer, Book Editor<br />

The Sunday School Board reports cash sales of mission study books were up<br />

50 per cent over sales for the previous year. Several factors contributed to make<br />

possible this increase: (1) the able and punctual processing of book manuscripts<br />

by the book editor, (2) a greater degree of co-operation between the Foreign<br />

Mission Board and the Sunday School Board, and (3) the natural interest of our


178 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

people in Latin America. The graded series of mission study books released<br />

August 1, 1951, was based on Latin America. . ,<br />

The 1952 graded series, released August 1, focused attention upon the new<br />

areas into which the Foreign Mission Board's work has expanded within the last<br />

dozen years. The books in that series were:<br />

Adults—Scattered Abroad, by E. C. Routh.<br />

Young People—Rainbow South, by Albert McClellan.<br />

Intermediates—Clash of Swords, by Pen Lile Pittard.<br />

Juniors—A Birthday Wish, by Mary Christian.<br />

Primaries—A Lei for Malcolm, by Cornelia Leavell.<br />

The book editor regularly prepares the Foreign Mission Board's annual report<br />

to the Southern Baptist Convention entitled The Field is the World. This<br />

comprehensive report is based upon firsthand reports from the fields and is<br />

published as a part of the Southern Baptist Convention Annual. The Foreign<br />

Mission Board also issues the report in a separate binding under the title given<br />

above.<br />

DENOMINATIONAL AND SECULAR PRESS RELATIONS<br />

lone Gray, Press Representative<br />

Press relations is more than just the reporting of news. It involves, amon<br />

other things, training the missionaries in what to look for and how to send news<br />

and feature stories. "Key" people must be selected in major areas who can be<br />

depended upon to send material, or see that it is sent, at the time that such<br />

material is news.<br />

A growing number of publications, published by other denominational agencies,<br />

look to the press representative to read, edit, and process missionary materials<br />

for use in their pages.<br />

Monthly releases sent from the Richmond office include: (1) "paid" releases<br />

to the state Baptist papers, (2) a mailing of "missionary quotes" to state papers<br />

and denominational magazines, and (3) a feature for publication in the Training<br />

Union Magazine.<br />

Regular news releases go to the Richmond Times-Dispatch, Richmond News<br />

Leader, Associated Press, leading dailies of the nation, Baptist state papers,<br />

and Religious News Service, as news-worthy developments occur in our missionary<br />

program.<br />

Full-length stories on missionary appointees are prepared for the Baptist<br />

papers in states where missionary candidates have lived and worked. These<br />

stories are done with a different "slant" and sent to their home-town dailies or<br />

weeklies. Notices of change of location, change of address, birth, illnesses, deaths<br />

in the family, etc., are sent to the Baptist papers in the states where the missionaries<br />

are well known. These are in the form of brief news items and average<br />

about one hundred a month. Occasional feature stories and pictures for publication<br />

with news releases round out the special releases by the press representative.<br />

PROMOTIONAL LITERATURE<br />

Elizabeth Minshew, Co-ordinator<br />

In 1952, for the first time, special mailings were sent to chairmen of de<br />

W.M.U. presidents, Sunday school superintendents, and Training Union directors.<br />

This newest phase of our promotional literature program was designed to establish<br />

more direct contact with strategic leaders in local churches. It was felt<br />

that the Foreign Mission Board needed to be brought closer to the members of<br />

the churches. Moreover, the World Digest had demonstrated the effectiveness<br />

of this technique in taking the Board's message directly to pastors and denominational<br />

leaders.<br />

"Foreign Missions in the Cooperative Program," was the subject of one of the<br />

mailings. Another, included in a mailing from the Brotherhood office in Memphis,<br />

was entitled "Southern Baptists Face the World—And These Important Facts!"<br />

Woman's Missionary Union, following established precedent, requested the<br />

Board to prepare 25,000 packets of material on "Advance Into New Areas." The<br />

items included in the packet were: "Leaders' Helps" for the five books in the<br />

graded series; "Answering the Call," pamphlet by M. Theron Rankin; "New<br />

Frontiers for Old—Africa, Europe, and the Near East," pamphlet by George W.<br />

Sadler; "New Frontiers for Old—the Orient," pamphlet by Baker James Cauthen;<br />

INFORMATION SERVICE<br />

Mary M. Hunter, Research Assistant<br />

The Foreign Mission Board receives, in the course of a year, an amazing<br />

number of inquiries with reference to the status and history of its work. These<br />

are handled by Miss Mary Hunter who has been a member of the home office<br />

staff for more than forty years.<br />

Help is given to individuals or groups requesting routine missionary information.<br />

College and seminary students are assisted in preparing reports<br />

and theses. Wardrobe items and curios in the Board's museum are lent to responsible<br />

groups. The research assistant supervises the Board's library, museum,<br />

file of periodicals, and files of miscellaneous missionary information.<br />

CONCLUSION<br />

A new phase of the Board's program of education and promotion, initiated at<br />

the beginning of 1952, undertook to break down the barriers which restrict<br />

the outreach of our propaganda. That some degree of progress has been made is<br />

evident from (1) the increased circulation of The Commission, (2) phenomenal<br />

use of our audio-visual aids, (3) greater volume of book sales, (4) growing<br />

clamor from various sources for items of missionary news and interest, (5)<br />

proven effectiveness of direct mailings to local church leaders, and (6) the unprecedented<br />

demand for our promotional literature.<br />

Department of Missionary Personnel<br />

EDNA FRANCES DAWKINS, Assistant Secretary<br />

Dr. Samuel E. Maddox, Secretary for Missionary Personnel, presented his<br />

resignation in December to become pastor of the First Baptist Church of Dothan,<br />

Alabama. During his four and one-half years of service with the Department<br />

of Missionary Personnel, 343 missionaries were appointed and countless other<br />

young people were inspired to give themselves more fully to the advancement of<br />

Christ's cause around the world. At its first meeting in 1953, the Board elected<br />

Mr. Elmer S. West to succeed Dr. Maddox. As a Richmond pastor, Mr. West<br />

had served as a local member of the Board for more than four years. With a<br />

background of theological training and pastoral experience and with specialized<br />

training in the field of counseling, he is eminently fitted for the position of<br />

personnel secretary.<br />

Members of the Department of Missionary Personnel have the privilege of<br />

working closely with all young people who are interested in foreign mission<br />

service, as well as with the nationals from other lands who come under the<br />

sponsorship of the Foreign Mission Board to study in this country. The active


180 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

files include about 1,200 young people, ranging in age from eight to thirty-two<br />

years. Through correspondence, attendance at summer assemblies, and visits to<br />

colleges and seminaries, the missionary personnel department keeps in touch<br />

with these volunteers. They are urged to write the department at least once a<br />

year, and more often during the several years immediately preceding appointment.<br />

Each active volunteer is eligible for a free subscription to The Commission,<br />

which is a source of up-to-date information.<br />

Eighty-four new missionaries were appointed in 1952, bringing the total staff<br />

of active missionaries to 879 at the end of December. Latin America will be the<br />

area of work for 42 of this group, 27 of whom will serve in Spanish-speaking<br />

areas with 15 to serve in Portuguese-speaking Brazil. Of significance is the fact<br />

that three more couples were appointed to serve in Guatemala and Honduras, an<br />

area where one missionary couple labored alone for nine years until the appointment<br />

of a second couple in 1951. With a few exceptions, the new missionaries<br />

for Brazil are spending their first year in language school in Campinas, Brazil,<br />

while those for the Spanish-speaking area are studying the language in San Jose,<br />

Costa Rica. The year of language study affords an opportunity for general<br />

orientation, also.<br />

Another step toward advance into new areas was taken with the appointment<br />

in 1953 of eight new missionaries to serve in Southern Rhodesia, where the<br />

missionary staff had consisted of two couples. Three of the new appointees,<br />

two doctors (a married couple) and a nurse, have made possible the projection<br />

of medical work in this area. Fourteen of the newly appointed missionaries will<br />

serve in Nigeria, while three will serve in the Near East. One young woman<br />

has joined the staff of the Armstrong Memorial Training School in Rome, Italy,<br />

and one received special appointment to serve temporarily as librarian at the<br />

International Seminary in Zurich, Switzerland.<br />

Fifteen of the new appointees will serve in the Orient. One couple went to<br />

the Philippines, one couple went to Thailand, a special appointee is serving as<br />

a teacher in Hawaii, and the remaining ten are in Japan. With these appointments<br />

our missionary staff in Japan reached a total of ninety-six. Medical work<br />

is being projected here, also, as two doctors and a nurse were among the ten<br />

appointed.<br />

From all the areas of the world come pleas for additional missionaries. It<br />

is very difficult for the staff of the Foreign Mission Board to have to inform<br />

the missionaries on the field that because of a lack of funds and an insufficient<br />

number of volunteers these needs cannot be met. A number of well qualified<br />

young people are presenting themselves for appointment continually, but there is<br />

a real need for a greater number of volunteers if Southern Baptists are to begin<br />

to help meet the needs of the world in this crucial hour.

AUDITOR'S CERTIFICATE<br />

We have made an examination of the accounts of the Foreign Mission Bo<br />

of the Southern Baptist Convention, Richmond, Virginia, for the year ended<br />

December 31, 1952. In our opinion, the accompanying balance sheet and statement<br />

of income and expense presents fairly the financial position of the Foreign Mission<br />

Board of the Southern Baptist Convention at December 31, 1952, and the results<br />

of its operations for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted<br />

accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.<br />

BALANCE SHEET COMMENTS<br />

ASSETS<br />

Permanent Fund Assets—$2,858,523.59<br />

The assets held in this classification are of a permanent nature, and<br />

cipal amounts recorded in the Balance Sheet must be held intact as specified in a<br />

will or agreement. In like manner, the income earned on these assets must be used<br />

as specified. The income may be used for current operations in many instances,<br />

whereas it must be disposed of in a special manner or added to the principal of<br />

the fund in other cases.<br />

Fixed Assets—$156,334.93<br />

This classification incorporates donations of real estate in the U. S<br />

as properties and equipment purchased for use in our mission program and home<br />

office. The headquarters buildings, actually worth more than our book value, are<br />

carried in our Endowment and Trust Fund investments at a cost of $120,180.00.<br />

Mission properties on foreign fields are shown in the Balance Sheet at $1.00, since<br />

such assets have no real value to local banks or business institutions studying<br />

the net worth of the Board.


204 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Cash—Current Funds—$828,337.53<br />

The scope of our operations requires a substantial cash balance at all times.<br />

Our budget calls for average monthly payments of $471,600.00 which does not<br />

include payments from the list of Lottie Moon Beyond-the-Goal items, Rehabilitation<br />

payments, etc. Disbursements each month range between $450,000.00 and<br />

$850,000.00 depending upon the season of the year. Current appropriations are<br />

set up on a quarterly basis for the mission fields subject to call by the held<br />

treasurers. The Board attempts to keep a balance in current funds adequate for a<br />

three month period. As the funds for one quarter are drawn out of the account<br />

in Richmond, funds for the next quarter come in from the Executive Committee<br />

in Nashville, Tennessee. There is, therefore, an overlapping of current funds in<br />

Richmond which leaves a balance in hand all the time.<br />

Temporary Investment of Special Funds Already Allocated, but Awaiting<br />

Payment—$3,212,404.03<br />

The accounts under this caption represent funds specifically designated for<br />

non-recurring needs which are not a part of our regular budget operations. The<br />

greater part of this total is for building missionary residences, churches, schools,<br />

colleges, seminaries, training schools and publication houses in thirty countries.<br />

By comparison to building funds held at any given period of time by the local<br />

churches, colleges, seminaries, hospitals, and other institutions in the Southern<br />

Baptist Convention, the amount held by the Foreign Mission Board is exceedingly<br />

small. After funds are received for building purposes, they are held in Richmond<br />

until plans are drawn, permits are secured, contracts made, etc., on the field and it<br />

is time to actually begin building operations. The Lottie Moon Funds must be<br />

used in accordance with designations agreed upon with the Woman's Missionary<br />

Union. Post War Rehabilitation Funds must be used to rehabilitate property<br />

in wartorn countries. These funds are being gradually depleted and no additions<br />

to the fund are contemplated at present. Post War Forward Movement Funds<br />

are for expenditures in connection with our Advance Program and are nonrecurring.<br />

This fund is in the process of depletion and will be eliminated before<br />

long. Jarman Foundation Funds are designated for building purposes by the<br />

donor. World Relief Funds are special receipts for relief. W. R. Spight Funds<br />

were created under the will of W. R. Spight, deceased, and will be drawn upon<br />

each year in the appointment of missionaries as stipulated in the will. In all<br />

cases, funds which are not currently needed are invested in government securities<br />

which can be liquidated on short notice. The income derived from the investments<br />

is used for the respective fund.<br />

Investments—Current Fund—$ 1,502,781.16<br />

There are seasons in the year when we receive more money than we spend,<br />

and vice versa. When possible a portion of the cash in hand is invested temporarily<br />

in short term government securities in order to yield income. The invested cash<br />

balance at December 31, 1952, included $1,038,035.00 of Advance Program Funds<br />

received in 1952 which have been allocated in 1953 for items in our Advance<br />

Program.<br />

Investments—Emergency Fund—$3,070,528.55<br />

This is held by instructions of the Southern Baptist Convention to be used<br />

only for deficits that may occur either through decreased receipts or emergencies<br />

or both. We add to this fund the income earned on the investments. This fund<br />

should continue to grow if we are to have an adequate amount in reserve with<br />

which to meet an unforeseen emergency.<br />

LIABILITIES AND FUNDS<br />

Permanent Funds—$2,858,523.59<br />

The obligation of the Board relative to the various permanent funds is reflected<br />

at this point. The assets with which to meet these obligations are recorded<br />

in the asset section of the Balance Sheet under PERMANENT FUND ASSETS.<br />

Property Fund—$156,334.93<br />

In similar manner to the Permanent Funds and in keeping with Fund accounting<br />

procedure, the Property Fund is an offset to Fixed Assets shown in the Asset<br />

section of the Balance Sheet.

Current Fund Liabilities—$3,822,099.96<br />

i "^ e ^ es zJ rve Accounts classification shown under this caption represent funds<br />

already designated for specific purposes and are not available for appropriation.<br />

Such accounts include Lottie Moon, Jarman, World Relief, and W. R. Spight funds<br />

tor which we have a sufficient amount of investments in these funds to cover the<br />

Reserves.<br />

Unpaid balances on letters of credit are subject to withdrawal by field treasurers.<br />

The first quarter 1953 field appropriations are included in this figure of<br />

$922,716.51. As a partial offset to this liability, there is shown under Current<br />

Assets a deferred charge of $812,147.73.<br />

Unpaid appropriations at December 31st of $566,694.73 may be drawn upon<br />

in 1953.<br />

Surplus and Reserves—$5,810,889.44<br />

Comments on the Asset section of the Balance Sheet reveal the nature of the<br />

Post War Rehabilitation, Post War Forward Movement and Emergency Funds<br />

making up the total of $3,593,552.14. A sufficient amount of investments or cash<br />

are on hand to underwrite these reserves which must be used as stipulated.<br />

Unappropriated Surplus includes $1,038,035.00 of funds received through<br />

the Cooperative Program in 1952 for Advance. This sum could not be appropriated<br />

until 1953 following the closing of accounts for 1952. Funds represented<br />

by Unappropriated Surplus are drawn upon periodically to meet pending needs<br />

in all of our mission areas.

SECTION XV DIRECTORY OP HOME MISSIONARIES<br />

J. B. LAWRENCE, Executive Secretary-Treasurer<br />

The religion of Baptists is the religion of the New Testament, and the religion<br />

of the New Testament is the religion of the cross. It was the cross in which<br />

Paul gloried, and it seems now a proper time—as this is my last report to the<br />

Convention as Executive Secretary-Treasurer of the Home Mission Board—to<br />

emphasize the faith which Paul had and to give the emphasis to the cross which<br />

he gave. "To our Baptist fathers and to our churches, with few exceptions," as<br />

Dr. A. H. Strong says, "the cross has meant an eternally judging, suffering,<br />

and saving God; an historically judging, suffering, and saving Christ; and a<br />

continuously judging, suffering, and saving church."<br />

Missions must recapture the imperative of the cross for there can be no<br />

sustained mission passion until the cross of Christ has been set up in the life<br />

of our churches. The cross, not the manger or the tomb, has always been the<br />

symbol of Christianity. It is so intimately associated with the great critical,<br />

crucial events in the Saviour's work for the world's redemption that the gospel<br />

is called the "Word of the Cross." The true instinct of Christianity voices the<br />

cry of Paul, "Far be it from me to glory save in the cross of our Lord Jesus<br />

Christ, through which the world has been crucified unto me and I unto the world."<br />

The cross stands centered in the gospel. From the cross is sobbed out<br />

heaven's message of life and heaven's imperative to service. The erection of the<br />

cross in the life of the members of our churches as a symbol of their sacrificial<br />

service with Christ for the world's evangelization is essential to the existence<br />

of a truly missionary church. The greatest need of the hour is a fresh and<br />

forceful expression of the sacrificial spirit of Christ in all our churches. Christ's<br />

sacrificial offering of himself for man's redemption was the crowning act of


HOME MISSION BOARD 207<br />

iirw? 1 - . Y ministr y- In like manner must the churches of Christ by their<br />

sacrmcial service for the world's salvation justify their claim to be true churches<br />

oi jurist. Their best talent should be put at the disposal of him who emptied<br />

nimselt o± honor and became obedient to the death of the cross.<br />

r A v ? entr al truth of the gospel should actually grip the men to whom<br />

God has given worldly treasure, then under the constraining love of Christ<br />

millions would be forthcoming for all our great missionary enterprises, and the<br />

churches themselves would attain a position of moral dignity and power unparalleled<br />

in their history. The divine imperative that alone can hurl the<br />

forces of Jesus across mountains and plains and stormy seas until the "every<br />

creature in the Great Commission has been reached is the message of love centered<br />

m the cross of Christ.<br />

Did you ever stand with Christ in spirit on that mountaintop, appointed in<br />

Galilee, and hear him as he delivered to his disciples the marching orders for his<br />

people? Listen as he speaks: "All authority in heaven and in earth has been<br />

given unto me. Go ye, therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing<br />

them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit;<br />

teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you; and lo,<br />

I am with you all the way even unto the consummation of the age."<br />

Behind that triumphant and imperial command is the cross. If there had<br />

been no cross of suffering there could have been no command of triumph. The<br />

"all power" given is on the other side of the "all surrender" made. Jesus here<br />

asserts that he, as the crucified Saviour of the world, has received from the<br />

Father in heaven the supreme authority in heaven and earth, over the whole<br />

kingdom of heaven among men. This authority was not given to him as the Son<br />

of God alone for, as God, naught can be added to him or taken from him; it<br />

is an authority which he has secured as man and God—the God-man in his death<br />

and resurrection. As the reward of his sacrifice for the world's redemption all<br />

authority in heaven as priest with God is his and all authority on earth as King<br />

is his.<br />

II<br />

The Christian religion takes higher ground in respect to human duty than<br />

any man-made religion ever dared to assume. It makes claims which for boldness<br />

and authority stand entirely without a parallel. The imperial demand of<br />

Christ is that all who come into the experience of the heavenly life shall give<br />

themselves to Christ in the work of establishing the kingdom of heaven<br />

throughout all the world. Christ never thought of his kingdom as being anything<br />

less than universal and worldwide. The ultimate end of the saving powers of<br />

the gospel is the "every creature" of the Great Commission. The final consummation<br />

of the redemptive forces in the kingdom of grace is the "all creation"<br />

in the command of the heavenly King.<br />

You cannot divorce the kingdom of heaven from the geography of the world.<br />

It was so in the beginning; it is so now. The map of America was in the divine<br />

conception concerning the kingdom; so also was the map of China and India.<br />

The Son of God could think only in terms that were worldwide. To him<br />

the earth was a unit. There were no seas, no mountain ranges, no desert plains.<br />

He saw no national boundary lines and knew no distinctions of race or conditions<br />

among the sons of men.<br />

Finite creatures think in terms of continents, sections, divisions of the earth;<br />

they reach the limit of their interest when they have included in their thought<br />

a few of the races of men, but with the Son of God nothing short of a world<br />

including all the races of the family of man could satisfy the passion of his<br />

heart and the mission of his love.<br />

The kingdom of Christ does include, therefore, Tartar and Tagal as well as<br />

Caucasian. It can be nothing less than the reign of Christ in the material,<br />

intellectual, and spiritual features of the civilization and social life of the whole<br />

world. This includes the environment of men, for the social well-being of men<br />

must always include the ministry of their surroundings to their mutual uplift<br />

and progress. So long as conditions in Russia exist which make persecution<br />

possible; so long as political corruption maintains in Europe and America; just<br />

so long will the world be retarded in its social progress and the kingdom of<br />

Christ delayed.<br />

To these as to all retarding influences there is but one cure. That cure is<br />

found in the cross of Christ. The world's social hurt will be healed only by the<br />

coming of the universal kingdom of peace, only by the enthronement of Christ<br />

as King; and this will take place in the world only when men have erected the


208 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

cross in their hearts and lives as the symbol of their sacrificial service with<br />

Christ for a world's redemption.<br />

Ill<br />

The time has come and now is when every member of our churches must<br />

feel that the kingdom of heaven, its enlargement and glory, is superlatively<br />

important now. The evangelization of the world, the moral and spiritual uplift<br />

of humanity, is not simply a desirable thing for Christians to carry forward;<br />

it is the chief and most important undertaking under heaven. An active<br />

interest in the promotion of Christ's kingdom is the mark of true discipleship.<br />

A man's Christian life is not what it ought to be if the outreach of his sympathies<br />

is limited to anything less than all mankind, at home and abroad.<br />

For this, the largest movement known in human history, there is a supreme<br />

reason. Behind the superlative call of Christ to evangelize the world there<br />

is a triumphant, regnant, eternal argument. Christ never _ makes a great<br />

demand upon his followers without a reason; a reason sufficiently exalted to<br />

inspire the heart and thrill the soul. The reason for this call to worldwide<br />

service is set out by the great apostle to the Gentiles: "Know ye not the grace<br />

of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich yet for your sakes _ he<br />

became poor that we through his poverty might become rich." Here the lifeservice<br />

of Jesus Christ, which culminated on the cross, is set forth under the<br />

figure of poverty, and in this supreme stoop of humiliation he spends himself<br />

entirely and completely for man's salvation. This supreme sacrifice of Christ<br />

is made the basis of an argument and an appeal for the world's evangelization.<br />

In Romans, Paul begins the practical part of the epistle with a plea based<br />

upon the sacrificial work of Christ, "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the<br />

mercies of God that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable<br />

unto God which is your reasonable service." The sacrifice of the cross for us<br />

stands behind the appeal of God to us. We go today into all the world because<br />

of the lifework of Christ which justifies any sacrifice that we can make. We<br />

have a superlative reason for the gospel we preach. Wherever a preacher or<br />

a missionary goes—he may be a weak man or an unlearned man—but he goes<br />

armed with the argument of the cross and by this sign he shall conquer. Christ<br />

"lifted up" will do what no reasoning, no philosophy can do. Here is love as<br />

high as heaven, as deep as hell, as broad as eternity; love against which no<br />

sophistry of earth, no subtlety of the devil can prevail.<br />

IV<br />

But Christianity is more than an argument; it is a vital power. It is of<br />

little avail to preach Christ crucified if the cross were only an argument. It<br />

is to show utter ignorance of human nature to suppose that any external<br />

demonstration will disenchant men of the world. The argument may be overwhelming,<br />

but what is this to one who will not weigh the evidence? How are<br />

we going to stir men out of their apathy? What can we bring to bear on the<br />

minds of men blinded by sin and steeped in iniquity? How can we get<br />

the attention of men? The instrument to accomplish this work is the cross;<br />

the power that alone can awaken and arouse men from their fatal unconcern<br />

and callousness is "Christ lifted up." We can arouse the Christian forces and<br />

marshal their strength for the evangelization of the world by bringing them<br />

the cross of Christ. Christ crucified must become a reality to the members<br />

if our churches would have a passion for a lost world.<br />

The members of our churches must have the cross erected in their souls;<br />

then and not till then will they do as Jesus did, take the facts as they are,<br />

the actual facts of the world of today and bring God into them. They will<br />

identify ourselves, heart and soul, with the sorrows and labors of men, with<br />

the weeping of women, with the pain of little children. Inside all the famines<br />

and plagues, the wrongs and the curses of earth, they will then creep, and<br />

having come, make them all their own.<br />

This is the method of the cross. This is what Jesus did in coming to the<br />

cross. The bitterness of the world passed over him, its agony shook his soul;<br />

and therefore in him God's royal purpose was declared and revealed. That<br />

bitterness and that agony are about us still. Look at the world today, look<br />

at its suffering, its sorrow, its poverty, its nakedness, its pain. The members<br />

tf vl, <br />

e 9 0nt emplated the wreck of human happiness and the perversion<br />

oi numan society, all because of sin; as you have contemplated all this have<br />

you put the question to yourself, Do I really care? Have you ever felt the<br />

sense ot brotherhood which sets you to bothering about your brother? The<br />

tr " e saviour-man cares ; the man who has erected the cross in his life cares;<br />

not theoretically, not distantly, not professionally, but actually, vitally, through<br />

T*nf- m • la if * m P ac t of need and with an immediate outrush of love.<br />

lhis is the only basis for a world program. A mission movement that is<br />

not inspired by love—love to Christ and one's fellows—will be ephemeral;<br />

Xt J* c° me an d go with the changing times and tides of men, with the rise<br />

and fall of human values. But a mission-interest built upon love will wane<br />

not, through bright and cloudy weather, through the stress and storm of<br />

financial flurry, through the shocks of social and political changes, it will still<br />

remain. Love is eternal. It is optimistic. It is insistent. It does not have to<br />

resort to the multiplication table to calculate its responses. The man who<br />

cares, and cares because he loves, is not careful to count noses in estimating<br />

how much he cares. The heart of love does not have to be pried open with<br />

the leverage of multitudes. A soul-yearning is not fed on columns of figures.<br />

Christ did not stop to figure up the number of men in the world to be saved;<br />

he came to save men, not because there were so many, but because they were<br />

so dear. And the only inspiration to love, the only dynamic that drives out<br />

our selfishness and causes us to bother about our brother is the cross of Christ.<br />

One cannot begin to open up the fulness of this subject. The cross! What<br />

overwhelming truths flash out from it as from a blazing, radiating, central<br />

point! The cross! What an exhibition does it give of the value of a soul!<br />

The cross! What a picture of the miseries of the damned! Devouring flames!<br />

Chain of darkness! Howlings of despair—oh! how the cross, where Jesus<br />

bleeds, gives us a most terrific idea of hell! The cross! What an awful,<br />

lurid light does it pour upon the justice, the severity, and the holiness of God.<br />

The cross! What a story it tells about the love of God! How dazzling, with<br />

what surpassing brightness, does it not shine, sending a heavenly effulgence<br />

over all this world of darkness even down to the gates of hell!<br />

Can the cross of Christ be viewed with indifference? Is it strange that<br />

the cross has power to rouse and stir the heart? Is not this the wonder, not<br />

that men are shaken, but that all are not melted and mastered by the very<br />

first proclamation of the crucifixion of the world's Redeemer; and that whenever<br />

and wherever that truth is proclaimed, the scenes of Pentecost are not<br />

renewed? When one looks at the cross, how is it possible not to love Christ<br />

who suffered and died on the cross; not to call with the psalmist upon heaven<br />

and earth, upon our souls and all within us, to love and praise the Lord? And<br />

with Andrew Fuller to find our heart forever breaking out into unknown<br />

strains of love, and our lips—go where we will—still singing:<br />

Oh, for this love let rocks and hills,<br />

Their lasting silence break,<br />

And all harmonious human tongues<br />

The Saviour's praises speak.<br />

VI<br />

The cross stands as the symbol of sacrifice. On it Jesus gave himself for the<br />

world, and his appeal to us for service comes from the mount of his own sacrifice..<br />

It can have no other meaning to us than what it had for him. Here is symbolized<br />

the supreme gift which every Christian is called upon to make, the giving of<br />

himself for the coming of the advancement of God in the world. Let us not be<br />

guilty of criminal perversion of God's Word by inferring that because he has<br />

promised a specific reign of Christ in all the ends of the earth, that he will<br />

certainly bring it to pass, and therefore we may repose in a state of entire<br />

inaction and unconcern. There is no piety in that confidence which neglects<br />

prayer or which, praying, does not add to prayer diligent effort to attain that<br />

for which it prays. God's kingdom is a kingdom of means. He never did and<br />

probably never will convey the light of the gospel to any people by direct<br />

miracle. "Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God," says the


210 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

apostle; and as if to stir his hearers with a holy zeal in the work of preaching<br />

the gospel, he continues, "But how can they hear without a preacher, and how<br />

can they preach except they be sent?" The worldwide work of evangelism has<br />

been commissioned to the churches, the work which we are called upon to accomplish<br />

is the evangelization of this entire world. Not a corner of it is to be left<br />

out. Into all of it we are to go with the gospel of redeeming grace.<br />

To those who would go to foreign fields we would say, "Go; go as fast as<br />

winged ships can carry you, but do not go because American sin is not picturesque<br />

enough. Do not go because you think it is only by going to lands afar that you<br />

can work for the coming of the kingdom. Go only because Christ has called you<br />

to take your position at the post of duty in foreign lands.", The army of King<br />

Jesus is worldwide, the campaign of conquest is universal, and every point of<br />

contact with the forces of evil is the front of battle whether the lines be drawn<br />

in the home field or on lands afar.<br />

You who are commissioned to stay and fight in the ranks at home be assured<br />

that the battle cannot be waged successfully abroad unless the enemy is kept<br />

in check at home. One of the great problems in foreign missions today is a<br />

home problem. Can we extend over all the earth the victories of the Prince of<br />

Peace while we are bearing in one hand the emblems of salvation and in the other<br />

hand the price of blood? Can we break the chains of spiritual thraldom abroad<br />

while we rivet the fetters of moral bondage at home? Can we teach the races<br />

of the earth the law of universal love while we are disregarding the rights of<br />

others in our own land? So long as the so-called Christian^ nations are filled<br />

with graft and greed; so long as the most dreadful corruption of morals and<br />

the most dismal defiance of moral principles prevail among the nations which<br />

are sending the gospel, just so long will the far-flung battle lines of King Jesus<br />

move forward uncertainly and the kingdom of peace be retarded in its program.<br />

VII<br />

And how shall this be changed? How shall our homeland as well as the<br />

lands across the seas be lifted up and redeemed? There is but one way, it is<br />

the cross of Christ. The cross of Christ is the only remedy for a lost world.<br />

We know that where Christ crucified is not preached, nothing is done for<br />

eternity. Much there may be of sublimity and beauty in the programs promoted,<br />

but if Christ crucified be left out, all will be to the souls of men only the beauty<br />

of frost, and the sublimity of the desert.<br />

Do we want this earth to be born anew? Then, let us bring it to the cross.<br />

Do we wish it to make Jesus king? Then let us erect the cross in the heart<br />

of its commercial, its civic, and its social life. Do we wish to drop all its<br />

heart-burdens of slavishness and come into the life wherein there is liberty?'<br />

Then let us plant the cross in the midst of its sorrow and sin as the sacrificial<br />

oblation for all its wickedness. The cross is the gateway of glory for all the<br />

race. It is more than deliverance from sin, it is entrance into the life of God.<br />

It is not disaster, it is design. All nations, kindreds, tribes, and tongues are<br />

included within the ample fold of its all-comprehending sufficiency. The ages<br />

to come and the ages past are to rejoice in the blessings of pardon which it<br />

secures.<br />

The reports which follow, given by departments, will reveal something of the<br />

activities of the Board as it carried out its mission in 1952.<br />

Section II<br />

DIRECT MISSIONS<br />

LOYD CORDER, Secretary<br />

Southern Baptists behold now the glowing dawn of a new day in which the<br />

concept of being missionary shall supersede the thought of sending missionaries.<br />

Through the Direct Missions Department of the Home Mission Board we have<br />

done a fairly good job of sending missionaries to the foreign language-speaking<br />

peoples, the deaf mutes, the American Indians, and underprivileged people,<br />

but only now are Southern Baptists awakening to the larger concept of<br />

being missionaries to these same people in their own communities.<br />

It is beginning to dawn upon us now that, besides working with those prospects<br />

who seem easy to reach, our churches should devise a means of working also<br />

with those who are hard to win, but nevertheless just as much in need of the<br />

gospel. These include the underprivileged, the foreign language-speaking, the deaf<br />

mutes, the Catholics, Jews, and some others whose religious beliefs do not bring<br />

them to a saving knowledge of Christ.<br />

It now occurs to us that a church census should be taken and tabulated in<br />

such a way as to show how many people of these special groups live in the church<br />

community so that with this information in hand the church can project a program<br />

for working with them.<br />

This program may consist of inviting into the regular church services many<br />

who formerly received no attention because they were considered hard to reach.<br />

It may include providing an interpreter in the church services for a small group<br />

of deaf mutes or foreign language-speaking people; or there may be the need<br />

for a separate Sunday school class or department in the sign language or some<br />

foreign language for those who cannot participate in the regular classes. In<br />

some cases a branch Sunday school or a mission station should be set up for a<br />

colony of such people. In other cases Baptists from one of these groups already<br />

may have organized a church which needs help and encouragement.<br />

Sometimes a single church cannot meet all the need, but with the assistance<br />

of other churches through an associational program the need can be met.<br />

Yet the concept of being missionary includes all this together with the idea<br />

of sending missionaries, in which we continue to advance as is shown in the<br />

following paragraphs:<br />

Chinese<br />

We now have Chinese work in San Antonio and El Paso, Texas; Phoenix,<br />

Arizona; and Los Angeles and San Francisco, California. We have one vacancy<br />

at Augusta, Georgia, and many other fields for Chinese work are open to us.<br />

During this year we have entered new buildings in El Paso, San Francisco,<br />

and Phoenix. Also we have acquired additional land for the work in San<br />

Antonio. We have funds on hand for the purchase of a property for the work<br />

in Los Angeles.<br />

Deaf<br />

We try to have workers with the deaf in large areas to help the churches tha<br />

have or should have work for deaf people. Dr. J. W. Gardner of Little Rock,<br />

Arkansas, is superintendent of this work. We also have workers in Oklahoma<br />

City, Dallas, and New Orleans. There are two others who usually help in the<br />

work during the summer months. We need at least three more general workers<br />

with the deaf.<br />

French<br />

Rev. Lawrence Thibodeaux, of Thibodaux, Louisiana, has been appointed as<br />

general field worker for French-speaking mission work. We have enlarged our


212 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

corps of workers. Several new fields have been opened. A major objective in<br />

this work is to enlist the English-speaking churches in French-speaking areas<br />

to do all they can for the French-speaking people.<br />

Good Will Centers<br />

The Home Mission Board supports sixteen Good Will Centers, and other<br />

agencies in the Convention are supporting about twenty-five others. Through<br />

the work of Mrs. Noble Y. Beall, general field worker for Good Will Centers, and<br />

through the Good Will Center Conference at Ridgecrest each year, the work<br />

and program of these centers are being co-ordinated and correlated so that all<br />

may be stimulated and improved. During 1952 a new building has been acquired<br />

for the center in Miami, Florida.<br />

Indian<br />

B. FRANK BELVIN, Secretary<br />

FLORIDA: Rev. and Mrs. G. E. Crenshaw are leading the work in a fine<br />

way among the Seminoles in Florida. During the year a church was organized<br />

in the Big Cypress Reservation. This is the second Baptist church to be organized<br />

among the Seminoles in Florida. A mission has been organized among<br />

a group of Indians living in the city of Miami. A Bible institute was held with<br />

the church at Dania and will be repeated next year. A native minister, Rev.<br />

Sam Tommy, is pastor of the church at Dania. Another native, Rev. Billy<br />

Osceola is doing a commendable work in a mission at Brighton. The Southside<br />

Church in Lakeland helped build the building and has granted some financial aid<br />

to Brother Osceola.<br />

ALABAMA: The August assembly in Alabama was well attended. The assembly<br />

grounds and buildings have had considerable improvement. The Home<br />

Mission Board's appropriation for the improvement of the property was more<br />

than matched by funds from the Woman's Missionary Union of Alabama.<br />

Several Anglo churches of that area have begun sponsoring native churches<br />

or missions. Rev. and Mrs. John Isaacs and Miss Mabel Malone are our missionaries<br />

on this field.<br />

MISSISSIPPI: Rev. and Mrs. W. W. Simpson are the general missionaries<br />

to the Choctaws in Mississippi. The churches are served by native pastors. The<br />

association of Indian churches is quite strong in some respects, and the Indians<br />

have been sharing in the co-operative program of the state convention. The<br />

state convention has shown considerable interest in the work. Co-operative<br />

activities such as the Association, Bible Institute, Sunday School Convention, and<br />

fifth Sunday meetings have helped to strengthen the work.<br />

NORTH CAROLINA: The North Carolina work among the Cherokees is<br />

moving along through the co-operation of the native pastors and the Home Mission<br />

Board's missionaries, Rev. and Mrs. Ewell Payne. This is a tourist area.<br />

The work of the churches usually suffers during the tourist season, but this<br />

year it was back to normal in a much shorter time. A simultaneous revival<br />

strengthened the work. Another is planned for next year.<br />

OKLAHOMA: Twenty-eight per cent of the Indian population resides within<br />

the bounds of Oklahoma. About 66 per cent of the Baptist Indian population<br />

resides in this state. There are sixteen full-time missionary families to the<br />

Indians in Oklahoma, and some part-time workers. Four of the full-time missionaries<br />

are general missionaries serving 125 Indian Baptist churches that<br />

have native pastors. These churches support their own work while the Board's<br />

missionaries try to work with them toward a co-ordinated program. The statewide<br />

Indian assembly at Falls Creek is growing in popularity and influence.<br />

More than five hundred attended this year, with more than a hundred decisions<br />

of all kinds. A statewide Indian leadership conference was held in Ada, and<br />

the Indians voted to make it an annual affair.<br />

KANSAS: This year the Board sent Rev. and Mrs. Victor Kaneubbe to<br />

Lawrence, Kansas, where they began work with the students of Haskell Institute.<br />

Almost three hundred in the school are Baptists or of Baptist preference. It<br />

is expected that the Kaneubbes will contact many other Indians living in and<br />

around Lawrence and will begin a mission there. The Home Mission Board has<br />

property in Wichita, Kansas. The church there, however, has been self-supporting<br />

for some time. A larger building is needed.


HOME MISSION BOARD<br />

the fri^ MEX * C0: Until this year we have had some missions in towns or on<br />

New Mp g6 - S the Nava Jo reservation, but none on the reservation proper in<br />

thp n,rTu The Navajo council granted us a building site at Shiprock, and<br />

HYLIT I % ft as made an appropriation for erecting the building. Rev. George<br />

no 01 rm<br />

°K> * % "}gton, New Mexico, will lead out in the work there. A building<br />

at iiman grading Post is nearing completion. The Inlow Indian Camp is<br />

growing, and the Indians are participating more and more. There is still some<br />

persecution from various sources. So far we have not secured a building site in<br />

any n i n t e e n<br />

°f +v • ? Pueblos of New Mexico, but some Baptist Indians have<br />

turned their private property over to us to be used for Baptist church work.<br />

One home is being enlarged and a building is being erected on the ground of<br />

another. A new pastorium is being erected on the Home Mission Board property<br />

in Taos., New Mexico, and a chapel is being added to the Indian Center building<br />

in Santa Fe.<br />

ARIZONA: The statewide Indian camp which has been held at Sells for<br />

several years is growing in popularity, especially among the Indians of southern<br />

Arizona. As in New Mexico, Baptists have suffered some opposition. We have<br />

not yet been granted a building site on the Apache reservation at White River,<br />

but our missionaries are doing a good work by hauling the Indians thirty-five<br />

miles to their home for services.<br />

All of the missionaries to the Indians were invited to attend the Home Mission<br />

Week at Ridgecrest in August where plans were made to sponsor an<br />

Indian offering in the Indian churches and missions. A goal of three thousand<br />

dollars has been set, and it is hoped that Ital lan with this the Home Mission Board will<br />

be enabled<br />

Japanese<br />

The Home Mission Board has work with the Japanese in Los Angeles, Richmond,<br />

and Sacramento, California. One Japanese missionary couple was added<br />

during the past year. Many more are needed.<br />

Russian<br />

For the first time on the West Coast the Home Mission Board has opened up<br />

mission work with the Russians. Rev. and Mrs. Paul Rogosin are our missionaries.<br />

During the year 1952 they led in the establishment of the Slavic Baptist<br />

Church in Hollywood, California. The Board purchased a former Jewish<br />

synagogue, which has been converted into a lovely church building for them.<br />

Other Russian colonies are calling for a Southern Baptist ministry. It is<br />

estimated that altogether there are approximately 200,000 Russians in the<br />

Southern Baptist Convention territory.<br />

Spanish-Speaking<br />

We have Spanish-speaking work in the states of Florida, Louisiana, Texas,<br />

New Mexico, Arizona, and California. In Texas, Dr. L. D. Wood is co-ordinator<br />

of the work, employed jointly by the Home Mission Board and the State Executive<br />

Board of Texas. In New Mexico, Dr. Milton S. Leach has served as a<br />

general worker employed jointly by the Home Mission Board and the Spanish-<br />

American Baptist Convention of New Mexico. It is anticipated that Dr. Leach<br />

shall serve as co-ordinator of Spanish work in New Mexico, and also in Arizona<br />

beginning in 1953. He will be supported jointly by the Home Mission Board<br />

and the two state boards of New Mexico and Arizona. All the Spanish mission<br />

work outside of Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona is directly under the leadership<br />

of the secretary of Direct Missions.<br />

213


214 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

I. Spanish-speaking Work in Texas—L. D. Wood, Co-ordinator.<br />

In the more than one-half century of mission work with the Mexicans of<br />

Texas, Southern Baptist missionaries have accomplished much. To attest to<br />

this are more than three hundred Spanish-speaking congregations with their<br />

organizations of associations, districts, and the Mexican Baptist Convention of<br />

Texas. But there is much more to be done, for 1,200,000 people of Spanish<br />

descent in Texas walk in darkness.<br />

One of our greatest problems is that of the migrant worker. We must<br />

teach our people the advantages of staying in one place, rearing their children<br />

and sending them to school. We should lead Southern Baptists to employ these<br />

Christians so that they can put down roots.<br />

We need pastors among the Latins—young men who already know their<br />

people, know their language and feel the call of Christ to carry the message to<br />

them. To this end scholarships are given to students to encourage them to<br />

prepare themselves. Student pastorates are opened around Baptist educational<br />

institutions for them to preach. We hold pastors' institutes periodically in<br />

strategic places oyer the state. In these the pastors study the Bible, Sunday<br />

school and Training Union work, and preaching. They have an opportunity to<br />

discuss mutual problems and to encourage one another in their fellowship.<br />

We need more kindergarten workers with their effective program for break<br />

ing down barriers and teaching the children the love of Jesus.<br />

We must continue to improve our use of the summer student missionaries<br />

to strengthen the work of our churches and also to find among these young<br />

people the regular missionaries of tomorrow.<br />

For two generations the Mexican Baptists of Texas have been a separate<br />

segment of the Southern Baptist Convention constituency, but now we are happy<br />

to see that many of the Spanish-speaking churches are being welcomed into full<br />

participation in the associations with the English-speaking churches. No doubt<br />

both the English and the Spanish-speaking churches will be blessed by this fellowship<br />

together.<br />

II. Spanish-speaking Work in New Mexico—Milton S. Leach, Superintendent.<br />

Home Board missionaries to the Spanish in New Mexico now serve 53 fields<br />

During the year 1952 the number of workers increased from 36 to 47. Nineteen<br />

student workers and 3 evangelists for Mexican nationals serving during the<br />

summer bring the total to 69.<br />

In 1952, 65,000 Mexican nationals came through El Paso into New Mexico.<br />

Our program of evangelism among them was but a small beginning but resulted<br />

in several hundred professions among these farm laborers known as<br />

Braceros. Obviously this program must be enlarged in order to meet the challenge<br />

of an open door to Mexico, for every true convert going back through that door<br />

carries the gospel to his own people. This is one of our greatest opportunities.<br />

The student workers the Home Mission Board supplies for our summer mission<br />

program are a godsend to our work. In addition to conducting Vacation<br />

Bible schools, they help with visitation and soul-winning; conduct study courses;<br />

and the young men find opportunities to preach. The growth of our Spanish<br />

camp from an attendance of 50 in 1949 to 262 in 1952 is due in part to the work<br />

of these fine students.<br />

The Spanish General Institute and also the W.M.U. School of Instructions<br />

have grown. In 1952 for the first time in its history the Spanish W.M.U. of New<br />

Mexico reports a Standard missionary society. The Spanish women gave<br />

$917.15. in special mission offerings. In Girls' Auxiliary there are now four<br />

queens and one queen with scepter. There are new young people's organizations<br />

and several new Brotherhoods.<br />

The monthly reports of our missionaries show more than one convert for<br />

each church member, one baptism for each seven members, and per capita gifts<br />

to all causes of $27.78.<br />

New buildings and pastors' homes are giving us the facilities needed for<br />

growth, and their erection marks a new day for our work.<br />

The challenge of this land with its 250,000 Spanish people calls for the prayers<br />

and dedication of Southern Baptists to "go up and possess the land," for we<br />

are well able.

The Home Mission Board has 18 employees working in the Baptist Rescue<br />

Mission, the Woman's Emergency Home, and the Baby Placement Center in New<br />

Orleans, not counting Rev. C. K. Rand, who serves as superintendent of the<br />

Rescue Mission in addition to his duties as a field worker with Catholics.<br />

I. Baptist Rescue Mission—C. K. Rand, Superintendent<br />

The Baptist Rescue Mission in New Orleans celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary<br />

on February 11, 1952. During its life this mission has sheltered and<br />

cared for more than three-quarters of a million men. It is a landmark in the<br />

French quarter where the gospel has been preached every night since the mission<br />

was established. The following statistics are for the work of the mission during<br />

1952:<br />

Sermons preached 365<br />

II. Woman's Emergency Home and Baby Placement Center—Mrs. Allegra LaPrairie, Superintendent<br />

Unfortunately our Woman's Emergency Home does not have space to receive<br />

all the girls that come for help during the year. Many have to be referred to<br />

other agencies. Nevertheless many lost girls have found the way of life and<br />

many Christian girls have come back to the Lord through this home.<br />

The Baptist Baby Home has placed 50 babies in good Christian homes during<br />

the year. Since its beginning on August 7, 1948, the home has placed 147 babies,<br />

all of whom are developing normally.<br />

EVANGELISM<br />

C. E. MATTHEWS, Secretary<br />

It is with gratitude to God that we are able to say the things that are w<br />

in this report. In spite of the fact that the year 1952 has been one of the most<br />

difficult in the work of evangelism of any year in the history of this department,<br />

we are privileged to give the most optimistic report yet made *by this<br />

department.<br />

States Are Co-operating Better<br />

We are gratified to report that two states have created separate departments,<br />

namely Arkansas and Louisiana, and that both have elected full-time secretaries<br />

of evangelism, namely, I. L. Yearby and Aubrey Short. These men are both experienced<br />

and successful pastors, and both have splendid records in the field<br />

of evangelism. We also have hopes of Illinois' creating a separate department<br />

of evangelism before the end of the year and electing a full-time secretary to<br />

promote the work. In fact, all states in our convention are co-operating with<br />

this department more fully than ever before.<br />

Unusual Crusades Conducted<br />

The staff of this department has conducted unusual and successful crusades<br />

this year in Kansas, Alaska, and Cuba.<br />

Directed Transfer Church Membership Week<br />

This department has during the year 1952 sponsored and directed the first<br />

specifically planned Convention-wide movement in the transfer of church membership<br />

on the part of non-resident church members in the history of Southern<br />

Baptists. We have no way of telling what the actual results of this movement<br />

are, but we have sufficient information to know that thousands of additions to<br />

the churches resulted from it.<br />

Great Plans Made for Future<br />

Great plans have been formulated this year for the future. First, this department<br />

is going all out to assist in the campaign of "A Million More in '54."<br />

Second, in 1955, following in the wake of the "Million More in '54," will be a<br />

simultaneous crusade covering the entire nation. The territory over which the<br />

crusade will be conducted will be divided into three sections. First is the tropical<br />

section, which will include Cuba and Panama and the Canal Zone. Some 3,600<br />

churches are located in this section. The date is March 6-20, 1955. The next<br />

section will be from East to West across the United States, coming up near the<br />

Mason-Dixon Line. This crusade will be the two weeks before Easter, ending<br />

April 10. The third will be the section north of the second section and will include<br />

Alaska. It will be the two weeks following Easter. There are Southern<br />

Baptist churches now in every state in the Union. Every Southern Baptist<br />

church and mission will be involved in the crusade.

JEWISH WORK<br />

FRANK HALBECK, Field Worker<br />

Our program for Jewish evangelism during the past year has been strengthened<br />

by our efforts to promote and develop two methods for presenting the gospel<br />

to Jewish people. ^ These methods arise out of the need for a year-round ministry<br />

to Jewish people in Baptist church communities.<br />

These two methods are visitation and preaching. We have stressed the value<br />

of visitation to Jewish homes on the part of church members. We have also<br />

emphasized the value of the pastor's participation in a definite preaching ministry<br />

directed toward Jewish people.<br />

There have been reports of Jews who have become converts to Christianity.<br />

Most of these converts have been led to Christ personally by Baptist pastors.<br />

It is interesting to note that the majority of the converts have responded during<br />

the seasons of revival in the churches.<br />

The first Jewish Fellowship Week was in November, 1951. This was an effort<br />

on the part of local churches to reach the Jewish people in their communities.<br />

Another such week was set for April 20-26, 1953. The plan for this program is<br />

available in tract form. Periods of special emphasis may not bear fruit immediately<br />

in professions of faith. However, such efforts are valuable in manifesting<br />

friendship and letting Jewish people know that Baptists desire to share the<br />

gospel. This special period is an effort toward the development of a year-round<br />

program of personal visitation to Jewish homes.<br />

The Jewish Fellowship Week has been placed on the denominational calendar<br />

for April 19-25, 1954. What is done, therefore, in the week of April 20-26, 1953,<br />

will be of assistance to us in our denominational program for 1954.<br />

Dr. C. E. Matthews, secretary of evangelism, has also suggested that on the<br />

first Thursday during revivals and simultaneous crusades pastors and evangelists<br />

visit the Jewish people in local church communities inviting them to Baptist<br />

churches.<br />

One of the most encouraging developments of the year was the expressed<br />

interest and good feeling on the part of seminary professors toward the writing<br />

of tracts. These tracts would be designed to appeal not only to Jewish people<br />

but also to refute the arguments of the rabbis who try to discourage Jews from<br />

becoming Christians. We feel that our seminary professors who are teaching in<br />

the fields of Old Testament and Hebrew will be of great assistance to us in the<br />

production of literature and tracts for this work.<br />

The length of time which it will take us to successfully propagate our program<br />

of Jewish Evangelism in the Convention territory will depend upon the amount<br />

of co-operation which all are willing to give.<br />

The field worker of the department visited 230 Baptist churches; attended 51<br />

state and associational meetings; assisted in seven Schools of Missions programs;<br />

preached in one revival; delivered 241 sermons and addresses; had 58 responses<br />

for baptism and 47 other commitments.<br />

OTHER MINISTRIES<br />

Alaska<br />

There are now 12 churches and 7 mission stations in Alaska. Southern Baptists<br />

are working in Ketchikan, Annette Island, Juneau, Anchorage, Palmer,<br />

Spenard, Seward, and Fairbanks. Two of the 5 churches in Anchorage are Negro

churches. There is a native mission in Fairbanks which is affiliated with the<br />

First Baptist Church of that city.<br />

The Home Mission Board now has 17 workers in Alaska. A survey is being<br />

made of the interior with the expectation of opening work there in the near<br />

future.<br />

In addition to workers supported by this Board, Southern Baptists have 17<br />

workers in Alaska. Some of them are supported entirely by the church they<br />

serve and others by designated funds from the states.<br />

Cuba<br />

• HERBERT CAUDILL, Superintendent<br />

Cuban Baptists continued to go forward in evangelism in 1952. A total of<br />

597 baptisms was reported for the year, an increase of 109 over 1951. Our<br />

evangelistic endeavor was stimulated by the visit of Dr. J. D. Grey, president of<br />

the Southern Baptist Convention, to our Cuban Convention in April, 1952. Four<br />

provincial rallies were held in September under the direction of Rev. E. Powell<br />

Lee of the Department of Evangelism. During the month of November evangelistic<br />

campaigns were held in all of the churches of the provinces of Havana and<br />

Las Villas. Dr. C. E. Autrey led six conferences in November with the pastors<br />

and workers in Havana and Dr. C. Y. Dossey led six conferences at the same<br />

time in Santa Clara. A tent was used for evangelistic services in El Cerro,<br />

Havana, for two months.<br />

Four new churches were organized during 1952: Miramar, June 6; Fomento,<br />

Las Villas Province, June 13; San Luis, Pinar del Rio Province, July 15; and<br />

Luyano on December 29. Miramar is the fourth church to be organized in six<br />

years in the city of Marianao, and Luyano is the eighth church in the city of<br />

Havana. We are now working in 138 missions where there is a possibility of<br />

organizing churches.<br />

Our Cuban churches also gave good account of themselves in stewardship.<br />

Total gifts for all purposes amounted to $98,141.78, an increase of 11 per cent<br />

over 1951. Pastors received from their churches $15,362.53, and gifts to the<br />

Cuban Cooperative Program amounted to $14,730.30. This was an increase of<br />

22 per cent in pastoral support and 11 per cent to the Cooperative Program.<br />

Our Seminary is now in its third year of work in its present location. Three<br />

young men and two young women graduated during the year. Marcos Rodriguez<br />

is serving as pastor in Taguayabon, and Benjamin Valdes, in Batabano. Rev.<br />

and Mrs. Hugo Ruiz and Miss Angela Oliveros returned to Colombia and are<br />

serving on that field under the Foreign Mission Board. Fourteen young<br />

women took our short courses of eight weeks. At present fifteen men are enrolled<br />

in the Seminary, and seven women are taking the short course.<br />

New properties were purchased in Caiias, Tapaste, Guasimal, Potrerillo,<br />

Buena Vista, Cartagena, La Juanita, and Melena del Sur. A lot near the University<br />

of Havana was purchased for the purpose of building a student center.<br />

New buildings were dedicated at Marti, Refugio, Pinar del Rio, San Manuel,<br />

Buena Vista, and Tapaste. Refugio and San Manuel are small rural missions.<br />

The church at La Vibora raised about ten thousand dollars for improving its<br />

On January 2, 1952, Rev. R. G. Van Royen was asked to serve temporarily<br />

as pastor of the Cocoli Baptist Church. On July 1 he was elected as acting superintendent<br />

of the work in Panama and the Canal Zone. The following is a report<br />

of his work and of conditions on the field as reported by him:<br />

The Home Mission Board purchased property for a church building and a<br />

house for the pastor's home in Las Tablas and plans were worked out for the<br />

new building. The building was practically completed by December 31, 1952. The<br />

missionary's home was also remodeled and he moved in at that time. Rev. Jose<br />

At present we have 3 Spanish-speaking churches and 3 mission stations.<br />

When the church at Las Tablas is organized there will be 4 churches.<br />

There are 4 West Indian churches. Rev. Fred L. Jones is pastor of Bethany<br />

and Gatun churches and director of the West Indian work. Rev. F. H. Linton,<br />

who retired December 31, 1952, was formerly pastor of the Red Tank Church.<br />

Rev. V. T. Yearwood is pastor of the Calvary Baptist Church in Panama City.<br />

There is one mission located in the village of Cativa near Colon.<br />

There are 3 Anglo churches in the Canal Zone. The First Baptist Church of<br />

Balboa Heights, of which Rev. William Beeby is pastor, is a good strong church<br />

with a progressive program. Cocoli Baptist Church is also a self-supporting<br />

church and has a good program. Rev. James E. Warren is pastor. The youngest<br />

is the Atlantic Baptist Church, Cristobal, Canal Zone. This church does not<br />

have a pastor at present, but has a great opportunity and will grow to be a<br />

strong church.<br />

The Republic of Panama is a challenging mission field. The doors are wide<br />

open now for us to take the gospel to 800,000 people. The people of Panama<br />

have receptive minds for the gospel and are ready for the Baptist witness, but<br />

it is not possible for 3 missionaries to preach to 800,000 people. I firmly believe<br />

that our Lord has opened this door to Southern Baptists and am equally positive<br />

that if we do not enter he will send others who will.<br />

April 14-18 Dr. Loyd Corder and Rev. Mike Mojica came and conducted revival<br />

services in Las Tablas, Chorrera, and Panama City. There were many professions<br />

of faith.<br />

Miss Irene Chambers was here from May 20 to June 26. She did a good work<br />

Many people living on ranches in the West are isolated by distance from<br />

churches that can serve them. The Home Mission Board maintains a ranch<br />

ministry to help reach these people with the gospel.<br />

They are encouraged to have Bible classes, plan revival meetings, and to<br />

attend when possible the nearest church. They are also encouraged to listen<br />

the field for such workers. In 1952 this Board appointed 333 applicants to serve<br />

under this program and in addition directed the activities of 29 students who<br />

were supported by B.S.U. groups. This made a total of 362 students. These<br />

20 students or more came students.<br />

from 23 states and 6 foreign countries, 9 of the states furnishing

CO-OPERATIVE MISSIONS<br />

S. F. DOWIS, Secretary<br />

The Co-operative Missions Department of the Home Mission Board is that<br />

part of the work which is done in co-operation with the state mission boards.<br />

The only workers in this department employed by the Home Mission Board<br />

itself are the secretary and the field workers. The field workers for the past<br />

year were A. B. Cash, J. T. Gillespie, John W. Wells, and Percy Ray. Elected<br />

since the annual Board meeting in 1952 for 1953 are: E. L. Ackiss, Leland<br />

Waters, and Chester R. Murphy.<br />

The only reports that are credited entirely to the Home Mission Board are<br />

those of the secretary of the department and the field workers. The reports<br />

of all the other workers are made by states and departments of work and credit<br />

goes largely to the states in which the work is done.<br />

The programs of work in the Department of Co-operative Missions are City<br />

Missions, Rural Church Program, Mountain Missions, Western and Pioneer<br />

Work, Rural Church Building, Ministry to the Trailer Camps in H-Bomb Areas,<br />

Ministry to the Military Personnel, and Work with Broken Homes and Juvenile<br />

Delinquents. In addition to these programs of activities promoted in co-operation<br />

with the state mission boards, the department writes a correspondence<br />

Bible course.<br />

There are now state superintendents of Co-operative Missions—or in some<br />

cases called Associational Mission Work—in all the states except three. In these<br />

the state secretary himself serves in this capacity. The Home Mission Board<br />

makes an allocation toward the salary of these state superintendents in all the<br />

states except one (Tennessee). In addition to the state superintendent of mission<br />

work, two states have a superintendent of City Mission Work, assistant to the<br />

state superintendent. These are Texas and Alabama. Following is a list of<br />

state superintendents of mission work: Alabama, Blount F. Davidson (city);<br />

J E. Berkstresser, rural southern Alabama; W. T. Edwards, rural, northern<br />

Alabama; Arkansas, C. W. Caldwell; California, A. C. Turner; District of Columbia,<br />

W. J. Crowder; Florida, Clifford Walker; Illinois, E. H. Moore; Kansas,<br />

HOME MISSION BOARD<br />

. , he . Co -operative Missions Department co-operates with all phases of the<br />

state mission work and the Home Mission Board. A special effort is made to<br />

support the work of Schools of Missions, Evangelism, Negro Work, and Jewish<br />

^vangelism. In the western states, the services of Fred A. McCaulley and<br />

Wiley Henton are very helpful in the Co-operative mission work.<br />

Southwide Conferences.—Special Southwide conferences are conducted each<br />

y ea £ for the promotion of all phases of Co-operative Mission work.<br />

ine<br />

yrty Mission Conference for 1952 was held with the Tabernacle Baptist<br />

• M rC \ m Atlant a, Georgia, February 25-27. The conference for 1953 was held<br />

with the First Baptist Church in New Orleans, Louisiana, February 24-26, and<br />

the attendance the largest of any conference thus far held.<br />

Two Rural Life Leadership Conferences were held in 1952: the western one at<br />

Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Forth Worth, Texas, May 20-22,<br />

and the eastern at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky,<br />

May 27-29. Similar conferences will be held at the same seminaries for<br />

1953, in Fort Worth, May 11-13, and in Louisville, May 19-21. Since these conferences<br />

have reached the limit of the capacity of the seminaries to entertain<br />

them, it is planned to hold one Southwide Rural Life Conference in 1954 at some<br />

central place when we may have all of the rural missionaries and pastors for<br />

the conference.<br />

The Western Mission Conference for 1952 was held in Phoenix, Arizona,<br />

March 12-15. This conference will be held in connection with Home Mission Week<br />

at Glorieta, New Mexico, June 22-28, 1953. Increased interest and attendance<br />

accumulate each year the Western Mission Conference is conducted.<br />

The Mountain Mission Conferences for 1952 were held at Oneida Institute,<br />

Oneida, Kentucky, April 28-30; and at Magoffin Institute, Magoffin, Kentucky,<br />

May 1-3. These were well attended and the interest among the pastors and<br />

missionaries in the mountain areas was both encouraging and stimulating for<br />

the work of Mountain Missions. Mountain Mission Conferences will be held in<br />

1953 at Oneida and Magoffin Institutes, with plans to have representatives from<br />

the adjourning states with mountain population.<br />

The Correspondence Bible Course, written for those who have not had the<br />

opportunity of college and seminary training, is written by the Department of<br />

Co-operative Missions. This course is free to all who would like to take it and<br />

has now reached a total enrollment of 7,160. The sixteenth lesson is now in<br />

preparation for this course, all thus far in the New Testament. No credit of<br />

any kind is given for this course, and it is for home study by the individual.<br />

It cannot be used as a substitute for any program that has literature provided<br />

for it within the church program. Numbers of people are being converted<br />

through the Correspondence Bible Course, and some have surrendered for the<br />

ministry and for other definite service. Pupils are enrolled in other nations than<br />

the United States.<br />

224 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

rects the superintendents of City Missions in co-operation with the associations.<br />

The city association nominates, through its committee, the superintendent, has a<br />

City Missions committee that works with him and promotes the work within<br />

the association. The superintendent reports to his associational committee, to the<br />

state and Home Mission Board. The committee is responsible entirely to the<br />

local association. This program consists of 7 definite points:<br />

1. Home Fellowship Hour<br />

2. Mission Stations<br />

3, New churches in needed areas<br />

4. Institutional services for all types of institutions<br />

5. Ministry to minority groups<br />

6. Program for broken homes and juvenile delinquents<br />

7. Program through the church in the interest of military personnel<br />

In addition to the associational City Missions committee, each church has<br />

its own church missions committee that promotes the work of that local church.<br />

The Rural Church Program of Southern Baptists is promoted in co-operation with<br />

the state conventions and in the interest of revitalizing the rural church.<br />

The program as promoted now consists of the following definite efforts:<br />

1. A state superintendent of missions in each state to promote the mission<br />

work of the state<br />

2. An associational missionary serving each association of the state<br />

3. District or special missionaries serving associations neglected and not able<br />

to have a missionary<br />

4. Work in the schools and colleges through a department of rural work<br />

which will assist rural pastors and stimulate students to be interested in rural<br />

life<br />

5. The Eight-Day Survey for the local rural church, which is a survey to<br />

determine the possibilities, the needs, and the methods of developing the life<br />

of the rural church in its community. This results in what we call the fourpoint<br />

better program for rural churches: Better pastoral leadership; better<br />

buildings and grounds; better trained leadership; and a larger kingdom program.<br />

6. Conferences in the interest of rural life, promoted on a Southwide basis,<br />

and co-operation given to the states for statewide rural life conferences.<br />

Southern Baptists are making progress with their rural churches and perhaps<br />

more than we have ever made in our history.<br />

Western and Pioneer Work was originally just the Western Mission Program,<br />

until the new fields opened in states other than the West; then it was called<br />

Western and Pioneer Mission Program. It consists of the work which the<br />

Home Board does in co-operation with the state conventions in the western<br />

This program at present co-operates with the states of New Mexico, Arizona,<br />

California, Kansas, Oregon-Washington, Illinois, Maryland, Kentucky, and<br />

Arkansas. Through these states conventions mission work is done not only in<br />

these states, but also in Nevada, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, North<br />

Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio. Other requests<br />

come from states that have not yet affiliated through any of their churches<br />

with our state conventions, but the Board has not been able to reach them until<br />

they are affiliated with a state convention. The policy followed by the Home<br />

Mission Board is not to enter any field of service until some church or churches<br />

in the area are affiliated with one of the state conventions through which the<br />

Home Board may aid on the recommendation and request of that state convention.<br />

The pioneer fields are opening more rapidly than Southern Baptists<br />

can enter them, and the demands are not only large but perplexing.<br />

The Mountain Mission Program has been well developed in the state of Kentucky.<br />

Rev. A. B. Cash, who had been serving in this field up to January 1, 1953,<br />

has come back to the Home Board office, and Rev. Wendell Belew has become<br />

superintendent of Mountain Mission work in Kentucky. The program as<br />

outlined is making rapid progress and accomplishing unbelievable results.<br />

There are other fields for the Mountain Mission Program in West Virginia,<br />

Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Georgia; and it is hoped that in cooperation<br />

with these state conventions we may be able to increase the efficiency<br />

of the mission work in these areas.<br />

°ll h services with the Board on April 15, 1953. This program<br />

will De sponsored jointly by the associational missions committee, the Brotherhood<br />

and Woman's Missionary Union. It is a program of counseling for those<br />

whose homes are about to be broken and a program of voluntary sponsorship<br />

tor boys and girls who may have fallen into the hands of the Juvenile Court<br />

for the first time.<br />

Two other fields of service are promoted in this Department of Co-operative<br />

Missions. For a number of years Percy Ray has done an unparallelled job in<br />

the field of building rural churches. Chester R. Murphy is at Aiken, South Carolina,<br />

to minister to the trailer camp population of the H-Bomb area, which<br />

consists of more than 10,000 trailers in 15 camps. Temporary buildings have<br />

been erected by the South Carolina state board and the associations interested<br />

in this service, and the Home Board will pay the missionary to direct the work.<br />

PERSONAL REPORT OF J. T. GILLESPIE<br />

During the year it has been my privilege to visit 76 churches in 14 states<br />

of the Southland. I have also visited 20 schools or colleges. "Come out into<br />

the country and help us" has been the challenge wherever I have gone. This<br />

cry has been voiced by many others also.<br />

The response to that cry is encouraging. More people are interested in the<br />

country churches than ever before. More plans are being formulated to give<br />

them practical help than ever before. More students are looking forward to<br />

a life of rural service than ever before. More schools and colleges are conducting<br />

plans of assistance to the rural churches.<br />

To a questionnaire sent out in April, 1952, we received replies from 21<br />

colleges, 11 junior colleges, 7 academies, 1 Bible institute, 3 seminaries. In<br />

these 43 schools are 5,619 ministerial students and 2,477 student pastors. Most<br />

of these student pastors are in rural churches. Of these 43 schools, 21 reported<br />

some plan of student-pastor supervision, while 24 have inaugurated some phase<br />

of adult church-leadership education through extension classes. In all of our<br />

schools and colleges last year there were 8,520 ministerial students with approximately<br />

3,000 of them serving as pastors while they are students. Approximately<br />

1,500 Southern Baptist preachers were enrolled last year in college<br />

extension classes. Some 5,000 other adult church leaders were enrolled along<br />

with these preachers.<br />

We feel that there is a definite need today on each campus for a director<br />

of church and community development, whose duty it shall be to lead the school<br />

forces in a unified effort to assist the smaller churches in their growth. This<br />

will give the needed trained leadership for the churches, furnish a stronger<br />

basis of support for the schools, and provide better training for the students.<br />

We believe the denomination should enable our schools and colleges to render<br />

this service.<br />

PERSONAL REPORT OF JOHN W. WELLS<br />

Increasing interest is being manifested in the Eight-Day Church Survey<br />

and Enlargement Program. The materials have been revised again. With the<br />

large wall chart and the revised card we are now able to enlist all types and<br />

sizes of churches in the program.<br />

We are now stressing the practical use of the program m a local church<br />

with the time extended for putting it on from eight days to a period of three<br />

months. Step-by-step instructions are given as to how this can be done<br />

effectively. .<br />

Program be arranged into a course that can be offered in the many centers<br />

over the state. This is encouraging talk and we are thinking seriously about<br />

such possibilities. It is thought that the program can be easily and interestingly<br />

offered in a series of 18 lessons and that the members of each class<br />

taking it can be enlisted to conduct one such survey as a part of the requirement<br />

for completion of the course.<br />

A special package of materials and suggestions prepared to help pasters<br />

put on the program in their own churches has been assembled, and already<br />

numbers of requests have come for these packages.<br />

The promotion of the program has taken time, but we believe we are going<br />

forward in it at increasing speed.<br />

PERSONAL REPORT OF A. B. CASH<br />

During the past year it has been my privilege to visit 153 churches in 17<br />

states; attend 2 state conventions and 5 other state meetings; visit 6 colleges<br />

and 3 seminaries; conduct 4 church revivals and 6 mission revivals; and deliver a<br />

total of 387 sermons and addresses. Other activities included some 65 associational<br />

and regional conferences, and 3 Southwide conferences.<br />

Approximately one-half of the year was spent in the mountain countries of<br />

eastern Kentucky in directing the Mountain Mission Program. This phase of<br />

Co-operative Missions continues to receive fine support from pastors and church<br />

leaders throughout the area. The Kentucky mission board has elected a fulltime<br />

worker to promote this program. During the past year, 12 new churches<br />

and 21 mission stations were established through the Mountain Mission Program.<br />

Brief surveys have been made in other sections of the Southern highlands with<br />

a view to extending this church-centered program in the mountain counties of<br />

other states.<br />

I have spent several weeks in the industrial centers of Ohio, West Virginia,<br />

Indiana, and Michigan. Much of this time was spent in survey work and in<br />

conferences with missionaries and pastors. Thousands of Southern Baptists have<br />

moved into these large cities without the witness of any Baptist group, and<br />

unless Southern Baptists give needed assistance this witness will not be given.<br />

The most pressing needs can be met through assisting in the erection of buildings<br />

and the salary of mission pastors.<br />

Reports.—It is understood that these reports show the work done in each<br />

state and therefore the credit for the work goes largely to the state and local<br />

association. They are given here as information for our Southern Baptist people.<br />

participated in 4 assemblies. He preached 46 sermons and delivered 56 addresses.<br />

In response to his messages there were 19 professions of faith, 18<br />

additions to churches otherwise, and 300 responses for calls to special service<br />

and rededication.<br />

Publicity<br />

Monthly news and promotional releases have been submitted to state Bapti<br />

papers. The editors have been co-operative in telling the home mission story.<br />

The gratitude of the Board is due these denominational servants for their<br />

helpfulness in the field of home missions.<br />

Southern Baptist Home Missions had an average circulation of 117,200.<br />

There were no unusual months; the distribution of the magazine was rather<br />

even throughout the year.<br />

Mission Study Books<br />

The 1953 Graded Series of Home Mission Studies on the general theme, "Sp<br />

ish-speaking Americans," met with enthusiastic response. Orders have been rather<br />

heavy. The series includes The West Is Big, by Albert McClellan; Adventuring<br />

With God, by Eva R. Inlow; Lo, I Am With You, by Mrs. J. L. Moye, Americans,<br />

Too, by Martha Thomas Ellis; He Loves Me, Too, by Betty Davis Mojica; and<br />

Spanish-speaking Americans, by Thelma Brown Burland.<br />

Distribution of Books and Tracts<br />

The printing manager, B. M. Crain, reports that mission study books sold<br />

through Baptist Book Stores during the year totaled 181,868. In the meantime<br />

the inventory of old books is decreasing at a steady rate.<br />

The use of free literature has jumped to an all-time high. It is difficult to<br />

keep tracts printed in quantities sufficient to meet current demands.<br />

The slogan of your secretary in trying to serve through the magazine, the<br />

state papers, tracts, and books is: "I'll tell the world."<br />

"Alas, master! for it was borrowed" (2 Kings 6:5).<br />

Our goal of one million grand total attendance for one year was surpassed<br />

in 1952 with 1,170,521. This record is amazing and gratifying if one understands<br />

that attendance was realized largely with "borrowed" help.<br />

State directors, associational missionaries and officers, local church personnel,<br />

employees of the state, Home, and Foreign Boards, and many others gave time<br />

from their full schedules and busy lives to direct, conduct, and serve in these<br />

programs. All along the line the people and their services are "borrowed."<br />

Schools of Missions have become a regular program to be conducted periodically<br />

in many associations. Others are just awakening to -the desirable benefits<br />

of the program.<br />

From the slump in 1951 the record returned to above average in many items.<br />

From a high of 166 programs in 1949 to a low of 104 in 1951 we struck an<br />

average with 135 this year. That was 30 per cent above last year. Only once<br />

have we reported a larger number of churches participating. The grand total<br />

attendance of 1,170,521 exceeds any previous record.<br />

In 135 associations, 2,797 churches provided an average daily attendance of<br />

193,333. There were 403 professions and 1,516 dedications to service. Two<br />

hundred ninety-seven Home Board missionaries and 51 approved workers served<br />

880 weeks delivering their share of 15,305 missionary addresses. Missouri had<br />

the largest number of simultaneous Schools of Missions; Mississippi ran second;<br />

and Kentucky third in the list of 18 states in which Schools of Missions were<br />

conducted.<br />

One hundred fifty-nine missionaries served in 206 camps in 19 states and at<br />

single Ridgecrest. weeks engagements.<br />

230 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

The secretary of the department of Schools of Missions during 28 weeks out<br />

of the office visited 136 churches, attended 10 state meetings, 49 associational<br />

and district meetings, and 95 group conferences. He visited 7 colleges and<br />

seminaries taught 22 classes, served in 5 simultaneous Schools of Missions programs.<br />

He preached 73 sermons, delivered 163 other addresses, led 28 to<br />

profess faith in Christ and 16 others to join churches in 3 revival meetings. He<br />

spoke to 16,192 in 19 states. . .<br />

We are pleased to believe that during the past ten years Schools of Missions<br />

have contributed much to Southern Baptists' increased giving and praying and<br />

to the hosts of volunteers for mission service.<br />

During these years with 20,928 churches participating and with 6,624,335<br />

total attendance, 2,909 have professed faith and 11,000 have surrendered for<br />

definite service.<br />

PROMOTION<br />

L O. GRIFFITH, Director<br />

The Office of Promotion has presented home missions as a part of the wor<br />

mission program of Southern Baptists, emphasizing the Cooperative Program as<br />

the best method to support all missions. We have majored on presenting all of<br />

the work of the Home Mission Board, magnifying the church as the sponsor and<br />

endeavoring to enlist every worker of the Board and other friends in the team of<br />

co-operation with the slogan "Promotion Is Everybody's Job." As media of<br />

promotion we have used visual aids, newspaper publicity, tracts, pamphlets, and<br />

other printed materials and exhibits.<br />

The Negro Baptist leaders all over America are appreciative of our assistanc<br />

and all agree that the best way for us to help their people is to continue our work<br />

in training their leaders. Our training program begins with the preachers, but<br />

includes classes for deacons, women, young people, and all others who desire<br />

training in Christian service.<br />

Our teacher-missionaries and directors of Negro Centers enrolled in their<br />

classes during the last twelve months more than 25,000 students, and 10,652 of<br />

these were ministers. They had in their extension classes more than 6,400. Most<br />

of these were preachers. They conducted 376 institutes with an enrolment of<br />

6,939. In services conducted by these workers, more than 2,240 people have been<br />

added to the churches in the last twelve months. We have teacher-missionaries<br />

in twenty-four colleges, universities, and seminaries, and in addition to teaching<br />

Bible and related subjects, they serve as spiritual advisors and counselors for<br />

both the faculty and the student body. In classes conducted by our workers,<br />

both in the schools and institutes, and in extension classes, we have reached<br />

thousands of men, women, and young people. We have directors of Negro<br />

Centers in some twenty cities, and most of these workers carry on extension<br />

classes and hold institutes during the year. During the summer months they have<br />

been responsible for great numbers of Vacation Bible schools. Many of them conducted<br />

clinics for Vacation Bible schools, and encouraged thousands of Negro<br />

churches over the Southland to have Vacation Bible schools, both in the churches<br />

and mission points, in which great numbers of boys and girls were won to Christ.<br />

We were given ten summer workers for Negro work this past summer, most<br />

for of whom our Negro worked Baptists.<br />

in_large cities and made a helpful contribution to our program


232 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

We conducted a Southwide conference at the American Baptist Theological<br />

Seminary at Nashville for our teacher-missionaries. Most of our schools were<br />

represented and the program was built around what we teach and methods of<br />

carrying on our work.<br />

The W.M.U.'s of the Southern Baptist Convention gave to the Home Mission<br />

Board $5,000.00 as scholarship assistance for young Negro ministerial students.<br />

I am happy to report that we were able to assist some seventy ministerial students<br />

and missionary volunteers who could not have continued in school without<br />

our help. This is one of the helpful phases of the Home Mission Board's work<br />

among the Negroes, but perhaps the most important and helpful phase of this<br />

work cannot be put on paper and that is the growing, wholesome relationship<br />

between our white and Negro Baptists.<br />

It was a joy again in 1952 to present the needs and opportunities of hom<br />

missions to our people in the churches, W.M.U. meetings, camps, schools and<br />

colleges, at conventions, and in many other places. More interest in home missions<br />

is manifested as people become better informed.<br />

CORNELIUS K. RAND, Field Worker<br />

This past year has been a very fruitful one in our work with Roman<br />

Catholics. During the three years that this program has been in operation, the<br />

Home Mission Board has printed and circulated over one million tracts dealing<br />

with the Roman Catholic religion. The success of these tracts can be judged<br />

from the fact that the Catholic Magazine Information of September, 1952, contained<br />

an article written by Father Richard Ginder in which he attacks one of<br />

our tracts titled "But I am a Catholic." He says in part as follows: "Another<br />

leaflet put out by the same Southern Baptists presents more of a challenge. It<br />

is attractive in its way, with nice big print in blue ink, 'But I am a Catholic'<br />

it is titled, by Cornelius K. Rand. . . . Beware of Bible-carrying Baptists, one<br />

who asks you over to his house for tea. . . ."<br />

Evidently Father Ginder is aware that in 1951 Southern Baptists baptized<br />

over 3,000 former Roman Catholics. Our program of presenting to Roman<br />

Catholics the gospel of salvation has resulted in hundreds of Roman Catholics<br />

finding Christ as a personal Saviour during the past three years.<br />

I wish to take this opportunity to thank the pastors and presidents of our<br />

seminaries and colleges for inviting me to present this program to their people<br />

and students. Without their co-operation nothing of permanent value could<br />

have been accomplished.<br />

BERTHA WALLIS, Field Worker<br />

I was in the Illinois Central Railroad office in the fall when they gave me a<br />

beautiful United States map. The traveling passenger agent asked what I had<br />

been doing recently. I told him about some of the wonderful experiences I had<br />

just had at the Cherokee Indian Assembly in Oklahoma and at a Baptist Negro<br />

Camp in Arkansas. Also I told him that I had spoken in 9 white camps and<br />

observed our work in Cuba. He replied, "Don't we have just one message and<br />

that is for everyone?" As I compile my annual report, I know we have just<br />

one message but the sad thing is that so many people in our homeland have<br />

never heard it.

CHAPLAINS COMMISSION<br />

of the<br />

Southern Baptist Convention<br />

ALFRED CARPENTER, Director<br />

Southern Baptist chaplains continue to be in demand. The military accept<br />

all the qualified candidates we endorse. Our basic quotas are filled in all<br />

branches of the services. Additional quotas are assigned to us as current military<br />

conditions require. Because a large number of our chaplains will complete<br />

their category of service or tour ef duty, our quota during 1953 will be larger<br />

than that of 1952.<br />

Southern Baptist chaplains on duty in all branches of the services number<br />

425. Of this number 76 are in the Pacific* Theater, 57 in the European Theater,<br />

7 in Alaska, and the balance in the States or in transit.<br />

Monthly reports from our chaplains and m visiting them on their fields of<br />

work reveal that they continue to further the kingdom m the hearts of men in<br />

the homeland and on the mission fields. A criterion of their soul-winning is<br />

revealed in the 11,284 professions of faith reported. In December, 15 chaplains


HOME MISSION BOARD<br />

reported 471 professions of faith. Other reports pushed the total over the<br />

thousand mark. At Lackland Air Force Base, Texas, the 6 Southern Baptist<br />

chaplains there reported 675 baptized during the year.<br />

Their stewardship on the mission fields is miraculous. In the homeland,<br />

the same 6 chaplains mentioned above reported that the Chaplains' Fund at<br />

Lackland contributed to "outside causes" during 1952 the amount of $24,000.00.<br />

Chaplains in western states often inquire, "When will it be possible to assist<br />

us in organizing a Baptist church in this area?"<br />

Abroad, in the forward and occupational areas, they not only support our<br />

mission program but often pioneer in new fields. In Korea, practically every<br />

major military unit supports an orphanage, a school, or both. One outfit contributed<br />

$42,000.00 to a home for amputees (children caught in clutches of war).<br />

Another division supports an orphanage in Japan. This is leading our men to<br />

know and appreciate mission work firsthand.<br />

In the European Theater one chaplain led in the organization of two Baptist<br />

churches and in erection of buildings to house them. To study the monthly reports<br />

of our Southern Baptist chaplains is a reminder that the acts of the Holy<br />

Spirit did not cease with the close of the twenty-eighth chapter of Acts.<br />

The Convention has assigned to the Chaplains Commission the responsibility<br />

of certifying to local draft boards the ministerial status of those ministers<br />

claiming deferment. We have given certification to 49 applicants; 11 claims<br />

were declined. We now have 42 applications in process. Those corresponding<br />

with us or seeking certification are legion.<br />

Your Commission has intensified its effort to awaken the churches to the<br />

necessity of extending their spiritual ministry to members within the Armed<br />

Forces. There are approximately 385,000 Southern Baptist church members in<br />

the services. Recent surveys reveal that only one in twelve church members in<br />

the services receives any correspondence or has contact with the home church.<br />

These men now in the services will soon comprise the major leadership of our<br />

churches. Constant contact is imperative. Approximately a million military<br />

men return to civilian life each year. These men can be a powerful, spiritual<br />

stream flowing into our homes, churches, communities, and national life. In<br />

1953, 1,900,000 men will be inducted into the services. Of this number approximately<br />

585,000 will have no church affiliation, unsaved. Also, 118,000 will be<br />

members from our Southern Baptist churches.<br />

The Southern Baptist Chaplains' Association is composed of former chaplains<br />

and those on active duty. This organization meets annually during the meeting<br />

of the Southern Baptist Convention. Its purpose is to promote fellowship among<br />

chaplains and to help Southern Baptists keep alert to the spiritual needs within<br />

this special type of ministry. A number of state groups are organized and meet<br />

in conjunction with their respective state conventions.<br />

HOME MISSION BOARD<br />

Section XIV<br />

CHURCH BUILDING LOAN FUND<br />

J. B. LAWRENCE, Superintendent<br />

The Church Building Loan Fund is a memorial trust fund given by individuals,<br />

churches, and missionary societies to be held and administered in trust<br />

by the Home Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention.<br />

The fund is not in any way connected with the general mission fund of the<br />

Board, and its administration is not to be confused with the general missionary<br />

operations of the Board.<br />

Loans are made for not less than $1,000.00 or more than $25,000.00, and no<br />

loan will be granted for a sum in excess of 50 per cent of the appraised market<br />

value of the property on which the loan is made. The rate of interest is 5 per<br />

cent per annum, and the churches are expected to make monthly payments on<br />

the loans.<br />

Loans are for a period of ten years or less. Each loan is to be secured by a<br />

first mortgage on the church property. All applications for loans are to be made<br />

on blanks prepared by the Home Mission Board, the trustee of this fund, and<br />

furnished upon request by the superintendent of the Church Building Loan Trust<br />

Fund.<br />

Upon the approval of a loan to a church, the church, at its expense, shall<br />

furnish to the Home Mission Board a title policy issued by a title insurance<br />

company, or in lieu thereof a complete abstract of title to its property, prepared<br />

by a local attorney of the Board's selection, or by approved abstract company.<br />

The abstract, whether prepared by a local attorney or by an abstract company,<br />

must be accompanied by written opinion to the Board from the local attorney<br />

selected by the Board that the title is good and merchantable. Title policies are<br />

preferable where available. The title is always subject to final approval by the<br />

attorney of the Board.<br />

When a church is building, it is necessary for the church to complete the<br />

building before the loan is closed. When the building is completed and the<br />

church has in hand all bills for material and labor, the Board will send its<br />

representative with a check to close the loan. The church will be required to<br />

make affidavit that all bills are paid and that the church does not owe anything<br />

except the loan made by the Board.<br />

Since the Church Building Loan Trust Fund cannot be used as a Missions<br />

Fund, the Board has set up another loan fund to be known as the "Church<br />

Extension Loan Fund" from which it makes loans to newly organized churches.<br />

The maximum loan from this fund will be $15,000.00 to be repaid over a period<br />

of ten years. The church applying for loan must hold clear title to its property.<br />

Each loan shall be secured by first mortgage and personal endorsements by responsible<br />

members of the church totaling the amount of the loan will be required.<br />

SIXTY-SECOND <strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT<br />

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD<br />

DIVISION HEADS<br />

HAROLD E. INGRAHAM, Business Management<br />

CLIFTON J. ALLEN, Editorial Service<br />

JEROME O. WILLIAMS, Education and Promotion<br />

Dr. J. M. Frost, the first executive secretary-treasurer of the Sunday School<br />

Board, concluded his report to the Convention at the close of the first decade<br />

with this significant paragraph:<br />

"We here close our tenth annual report, and count the first decade a<br />

finished thing—finished, however, only as a foundation is finished. The<br />

erection of the superstructure still remains, and we raay_ yet build so that<br />

future years and future decades may sing songs of rejoicing. Let us not<br />

forget, brethren, that in all this way over which we have come the Lord<br />

has been our guide, and let us remember that out in the future, whatever<br />

else may be or may not be, God is yet God, the supreme and sovereign power,<br />

guiding and directing all to glorious consummation, and holding everything<br />

with the strong right arm of his power to subserve the interests of human<br />

redemption and the building of the kingdom of his dear Son.<br />

"Grateful to him for the record that has been made, we earnestly and<br />

hopefully turn to him with the prayer that the future shall be still greater,<br />

both in the things that we do for him and in what he himself in the goodness<br />

of his grace shall do through us."<br />

More than a half century has past since that report was presented, but the<br />

truths expressed so clearly then glow even more brightly now in the light of<br />

God's providential care and continued grace.<br />

A Personal Word<br />

Eighteen years ago I stood before the Convention at Memphis and held a<br />

Bible before the messengers and made this statement: "I accept the Bible as<br />

the inspired Word of God and pledge that the Sunday School Board will be<br />

true to its teachings. I also pledge that the Board will be loyal to the doctrines<br />

as held by Southern Baptists."<br />

We have endeavored by the grace of God to keep this declaration and pledge<br />

inviolate. On that day I urgently requested Southern Baptists to pray that the<br />

Sunday School Board might be faithful to every trust committed to it.<br />

After the passing of the years, I want to thank you for your prayers and for<br />

the marvelous co-operation you have given the Board.<br />

I wish for Dr. James L. Sullivan, my successor, the abiding consciousness of<br />

the nearness of God and the rich fellowship of Southern Baptists.<br />

Permit me to close this personal word with the benediction recorded in Jude;<br />

"Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you<br />

faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, to the only<br />

wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now<br />

and ever."<br />

• • •<br />

God's Continued Favor<br />

The total receipts of the Board for 1952 from all sources, including the Baptis<br />

Book Stores, was $12,696,200.45, an increase of $2,002,867.26 over the previous<br />

The work of the promotional departments of the Board for the year amounted<br />

to $769 014.18. The total amount expended in denominational appropriations<br />

through co-operative work with the state mission boards, and in donations of<br />

Bibles, literature, and tracts was $624,756.74.


SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD<br />

The Trust Department of the First American National Bank of Nashville<br />

acts as our fiscal agent in matters of securities and investments. They also<br />

Our Co-operation with Other Convention Agencies<br />

The Board has continued its contribution of $60,000.00 during the year to t<br />

Executive Committee as its share of the Convention budget, and has also provided<br />

headquarters. They now occupy one entire floor in our Administration Building.<br />

The headquarters for other Convention agencies provided by the Sunday<br />

School Board are: the Education Commission, the Historical Commission, the<br />

Social Service Commission, and the Southern Baptist Foundation.<br />

The contribution of $1,000.00 for 1952 to the Woman's Missionary Union to<br />

be applied on their new building completes our gift of $5,000.00.<br />

The Board has for a number of years made a contribution of $1,000.00 each<br />

to the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Fort Worth, and the New<br />

Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary; and $500.00 to the W.M.U. Training<br />

School, Louisville. Last year we included $500.00 each to the Golden Gate Baptist<br />

Theological Seminary, Berkeley, and the Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary,<br />

Wake Forest. These contributions are made to these institutions to help them<br />

in maintaining helpful courses of study along the lines of work committed to the<br />

Sunday School Board. We have also continued to provide four $100.00 scholarships<br />

to the American Baptist Theological Seminary, Nashville, to be used by<br />

worthy Negro ministers.<br />

••• • •<br />

A Statement for Information<br />

That our people may be informed, we find it necessary to call attention each<br />

year to the fact that the Sunday School Board does not share in the Cooperative<br />

Program receipts. The total ministry of the Board to the denomination, including<br />

all buildings, must be financed from its own income. Through the mercy of our<br />

Heavenly Father and the wonderful co-operation of the churches, we are able to<br />

report that all obligations have been met promptly. We are also glad to record<br />

that every building has been erected on a cash basis.<br />

• • •<br />

Disposition of Board's Earnings<br />

The Sunday School Board is a non-profit institution—it lives to serve. The<br />

following statistics show how vitally its earnings enter into our denominational<br />

life and especially how they ultimately touch the churches through the state<br />

organizations in the vital work of their local development:<br />

Gains<br />

$1,561,129.54<br />

We are grateful for substantial increases during the past year in every phase<br />

of the ministry committed to the Sunday School Board. A summary of statistics<br />

shows the following gains:<br />

There were 354,384 baptisms reported by 28,865 churches in the Southern<br />

Baptist Convention, bringing the total church membership to 7,634,493.<br />

The Sunday school enrolment shows a gain of 237,361, reaching a total of<br />

5,491,056.<br />

The Training Union reported an increase of 122,633, with an enrolment of<br />

1,677,293.<br />

Editorial Ministry<br />

SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD<br />

Items of Special Interest Gathered from the Report<br />

That men may know! That is the purpose of the editorial ministry of the<br />

Sunday School Board. This means knowing in the true sense: facts plus understanding,<br />

faith plus conviction, insight plus appreciation, experience plus practice.<br />

It means knowing the truth revealed in the Bible; knowing God as Creator,<br />

Father, and Ruler; knowing Christ as Saviour and Lord; knowing duty and<br />

true values; knowing the purpose of God and the joy of service; knowing Christian<br />

love and moral power. It means knowing according to life's need—the<br />

child's yearning for security, the youth's quest for meaning, the mature person's<br />

demand for strength and motivation. For want of this kind of knowledge people<br />

perish. But, having such knowledge of the Word of God, they have salvation,<br />

and they become evangels of redemption. The periodicals, tracts, and books<br />

published by the Board are dedicated to this end: that the millions may know<br />

and live and serve. And to this end we renew our commitment.<br />

Progress<br />

Progress is a thrilling word when you can look at the record and find it<br />

good. Progress is a demanding word when you look at possibilities that are<br />

so far beyond what has been achieved. Progress, therefore, is both a thrilling<br />

and a demanding word as we consider it in connection with the work of the<br />

Sunday School Board for the year 1952.<br />

"A Million More in '54"<br />

The objective of Southern Baptist churches is to increase their Sunday school<br />

enrolment by one million during the Sunday school year, October 1953-September,<br />

1954. We believe this objective is in harmony with the purpose of Jesus in the<br />

world. The reason back of this objective begins in the compassionate heart<br />

of the Father—"For God so loved the world."<br />

' Nashville Headquarters<br />

Five major buildings house the Sunday School Board headquarters—(1) The<br />

Executive Building on Eighth Avenue is a five-story office building. (2) The<br />

Shipping Building on Ninth Avenue and Berryhill is a six-story building of<br />

heavy construction. It adjoins (3) the Administration Building which has now<br />

become a twelve-story office building on Ninth Avenue down to Commerce Street.<br />

The rear of the Administration Building joins (4) the Commerce Street Building<br />

which was formerly occupied by the Baird-Ward Printing Company but is<br />

now being used for merchandise stock and for shipping. (5) The fifth building<br />

is two miles away on a plot of ground at the edge of the city. It is owned by<br />

the Sunday School Board but is occupied by our contract printers—The Baird-<br />

Ward Printing Company.<br />

Accounting Department<br />

The year 1952 was another year of enlarged opportunities and service for<br />

this department. When the Business Division was reorganized recently much of<br />

the work done by the former Order Department was assigned to the Accounting<br />

Department. The continued growth of the work of the Board has greatly<br />

enlarged the responsibilities of this department. This is leading to a co-ordination<br />

of many phases of the work and the elimination of some overlapping, and<br />

it is our hope to render better service to our churches. We continue to be<br />

grateful for the fine way in which our customers respond to the request that<br />

their orders be sent to us early each quarter.<br />

Training Union Progress<br />

The number of churches with Training Union is now 17,781, with an enrolment<br />

of 1,677,293—a percentage gain of 7.9%. The department issued 562,146<br />

study course awards, a gain of 64,196 over the previous year. The Associational<br />

"M" Night meetings registered an attendance of 288,400. These meetings are<br />

the occasions for launching the program for the coming year.<br />

Training Union Leadership Conferences<br />

The three Training Union weeks at Ridgecrest registered an attendance of<br />

8,951. There were 1,307 commitments for full-time Christian service, and 73<br />

accepted Christ during the assemblies.<br />

257


258 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

The Baptist Student<br />

The circulation of The Baptist Student magazine increased 50 P^n^p^wion<br />

the year. Through the whole-hearted co-operation of the Periodical ^ churches<br />

Committee of the Board, the state and local student secretaries the "*<br />

and the students—this periodical has reached an all-time high oi l&.yoi cucuiation.<br />

The goal for next year has been set at 25,000.<br />

The Student Retreat<br />

The 26th Annual Student Retreat was held at Ridge crest June 4-11, with<br />

more than 2,700 in attendance. The registration revealed.representation fiom<br />

twenty-two states and eighteen foreign countries. Many students made significant<br />

life decisions during the week.<br />

Preparation Week for "A Million More in '54"<br />

A book The Pull of the People has been prepared for use in Preparation<br />

Week. This book was written by J. N. Barnette. It has been prepared especially<br />

for this quest. It will be available in the book stores early in August of this<br />

year. It is urged that in every church the pastor or superintendent teach this<br />

book.<br />

Sunday School Conferences at Ridgecrest and Glorieta<br />

The Sunday School Board through its Sunday School Department will conduct<br />

three Sunday school weeks at Ridgecrest this year and two at Glorieta. The<br />

dates for the Ridgecrest Weeks are June 18-July 8, and the dates for the<br />

Glorieta Weeks are July 20-August 2.<br />

Enlargement and Enlistment for Evangelism<br />

Dr. Charles L. McKay joined the staff of the Sunday School Department<br />

July 1, 1952, as secretary of Enlargement and Enlistment for Evangelism<br />

through the Sunday school. Dr. McKay is now outlining plans for the promotion<br />

of these important phases of work.<br />

Sunday School Training Course Awards<br />

The Sunday Sunday Department reports a total of 488,696 awards issued<br />

during the past Sunday school year.<br />

Vacation Bible Schools<br />

Again, the schools increased in number—to 21,741 or a gain of 909 over 1951.<br />

For the first time the enrolment passed two million, reaching a total of 2,146,152.<br />

Ridgecrest<br />

The auditorium expansion is well under way and old friends of Ridgecrest<br />

will be delighted and surprised when they come and find that the auditorium<br />

has been extended out toward the road so as to provide approximately 1,000<br />

additional seats. Much repair and maintenance work is being done. Some additional<br />

paving is being done and other improvements are in process, including<br />

some very attractive improvements at the Boys' Camp.<br />

Glorieta<br />

The first units of the three major buildings are complete—that is, the dining<br />

hall, the administration building known as New Mexico Hall, and the auditorium.<br />

Major housing units being completed include Oklahoma Hall, Hall of States,<br />

Spruce Lodge, and Cedar Lodge. The tent-covered space which was used for a<br />

dining hall last summer has been covered and converted into a dormitory. The<br />

temporary auditorium which was used last summer has been divided up for<br />

conference room space. A staff building for girls is being erected. Texas Hall<br />

was used last year during Pioneer Week but it has now been entirely completed.<br />

Bulletin Service<br />

A steady month-by-month increase in the Baptist Bulletin Service continues<br />

Working toward a monthly circulation goal of 4,333,333, the all-time hiah of<br />

3,283,358 has already been reached.


Periodical Circulation<br />

SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD 259<br />

The total circulation of periodicals for 1952 was 50,027,842, an increase of<br />

4,202,789 over 1951.<br />

Special Book Store Ministries<br />

Two special ministries of the Book Stores are being carried forward vigorously.<br />

These are the visual aids distribution and the church library ministry.<br />

The stores have a special worker in each of these fields. This emphasis has<br />

done much to forward these vital phases of work.<br />

Open Windows<br />

Under the editorship of Donald F. Ackland, Open Windows is growing in<br />

popularity. It takes its place along with the best devotional materials published<br />

anywhere. If our churches will provide this devotional magazine for their<br />

members, it will help to turn them back to the Word and to prayer.<br />

Missionary Co-operation<br />

Manuscript carbons of nine publications are being sent to three publication<br />

centers; and proofs of ten Sunday school quarterlies, six Training Union quarterlies,<br />

The Teacher and Points for Emphasis are being sent to from one to<br />

seven centers.<br />

Home Life<br />

Success has crowned our efforts to reach a circulation of 500,000 in the<br />

monthly distribution of Home Life. This glorious result has been due chiefly, we<br />

believe, to two direct factors: first, the eager general interest and concern in<br />

the subject matter of the magazine and second, its aggressive promotion by the<br />

Sunday School Department.<br />

Broadman Books<br />

Because Southern Baptists have something to say in scholarship that requires<br />

more time for understanding than the spoken word will allow; because<br />

Southern Baptists have a stewardship of the Word beyond the church building<br />

into home and community; because Southern Baptists have great and reverent<br />

minds among them—and questing spirits; because the printed word can speak<br />

for a generation after its author is gone; it is our prayer that the Spirit may<br />

help us discover both writers and readers, for the sake of the Kingdom.<br />

Schools for Church Librarians at Ridgecrest and Glorieta<br />

The eighth session of the School for Church Librarians at Ridgecrest will be<br />

held August 19-24. The thorough training of librarians is doing much for the<br />

stabilizing of the program. Last year, 1952, two hundred and fifty-three librarians<br />

were enrolled. July 13-19, 1953, are the dates for the first School for<br />

Church Librarians to be held at Glorieta.<br />

Church Architecture<br />

The Department of Church Architecture is having more calls for service<br />

than ever before in its history. The department served more than five thousand<br />

churches during the past year. These requests have come from the twenty-two<br />

states of the Southern Baptist Convention and from twenty-one states outside<br />

our Convention territory. The information gathered from the Associational<br />

Minutes reveals that the total value of all church property in the Convention<br />

is now $890,697,330.00.<br />

Joint Library Expansion<br />

The Joint Library, combining the Board's Dargan Library and the collection<br />

of the Historical Commission, is under the direction of the editorial secretary<br />

and Dr. Norman W. Cox. It is now installed on the fourth floor of the Administration<br />

Building. The physical layout for the library, including lighting,<br />

furniture, and equipment, is the best. The offices of the Historical Commission<br />

are adjacent to the library rooms.


260 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Writers' Conference . .<br />

The annual Writers' Conference at Ridgecrest has grown stea 1 y ^n^s<br />

appeal to people interested in creative writing, editorial wwk, a<br />

religious publicity. We believe that significant resul ffJ" e ,.£*"*£«, persons<br />

editorial work. The conference at Ridgecrest for the coming «<br />

scheduled for July 30-August 5. A similar conference will be held at worieta,<br />

August 24-30.<br />

The Music Department<br />

The circulation of our church music magazine, The Church Musician^continues<br />

to grow and the magazine itself is receiving much favorable publicity<br />

throughout the Convention. It is being recognized as a ready source of both<br />

ffood music for the choir and information for the church musicians. _ Twelve<br />

states in the Southern Baptist Convention now have departments of music.<br />

Music Week at Ridgecrest<br />

Considerably over 2,000 church musicians from over the entire country attended<br />

the conference and participated in classes, choirs, and varied activities.<br />

The conference closed with the singing of Handel's The Messiah by a chorus of<br />

approximately four hundred voices.<br />

Music Week at Glorieta<br />

With the opening of the Glorieta Assembly new opportunities will be provided<br />

for all church workers. Church musicians will be no exception and will<br />

have an opportunity to experience a great music conference there beginning<br />

June 8.<br />

Audio-Visual Aids<br />

During the past year we have given guidance to independent religious film<br />

producers in the production of twenty-nine films, which we feel sure will be<br />

highly acceptable and beneficial to our churches.<br />

Statistics and Information<br />

During the past six years, 1946-52, Southern Baptists have had a net gain<br />

of 25.6 per cent in church membership; 46.9 per cent in Sunday school enrolment;<br />

108.9 per cent in Training Union enrolment; 95.1 per cent in Vacation<br />

Bible school enrolment; 184.5 per cent in church property; and 115.2 per cent in<br />

total gifts. We are indebted to thousands of church and associational clerks for<br />

compiling and sharing their records.<br />

Merchandising Department<br />

It is our desire to give good service to all our wholesale customers so<br />

in turn can serve Southern Baptists and the general public all over the continent.<br />

The personnel of this department is made up of some fifty conscientious workers<br />

co-operating in a common cause. The work of the new Merchandising Department<br />

is fourfold: purchasing, wholesale sales promotion, order-billing, and orderfilling.<br />

Employees' Recognition<br />

In the June meeting of the Board each year a recognition service is held<br />

wherein special awards are given to employees reaching certain spans of<br />

service. In June, 1952, service recognition awards were presented to 95 people<br />

(including Book Store personnel) as follows: Those attaining 5 years 58* 10<br />

years, 13; 15 years, 6; 20 years, 1; 25 years, 7; 30 years, 8; 35 years' l-'and<br />

40 years, 1.<br />

Production Department<br />

This is a co-ordinating agency, developing an idea into the delivered co<br />

pleted product. This requires close co-operation with departments edito<br />

artists, printers, manufacturers, paper houses, shipping, order, business arid<br />

post office groups, in order to bring out the multitude of fine periodicals book<br />

visual aids, records, and varied items needed by our churches. We work jf'


SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD<br />

development of designs, sizes, materials, methods of packing, assembling, schedules,<br />

costs, records, care of plates, secure copyrights, post office entries, engravings,<br />

and do proofreading.<br />

Art Department<br />

The most important event in the life of the Art Department during this<br />

Convention year has been our recent move to adequate new quarters on the tenth<br />

floor of the Administration Building. This has made possible a new plan of<br />

organization which we believe will greatly increase the creative productivity of<br />

our artists.<br />

Advertising<br />

Dedicated to serve every area of the Sunday School Board in its ministry to<br />

Southern Baptists, the mission of this department is to inform our people of<br />

the availability of the goods and services of the Board, and to point out their<br />

useful features; to publicize Broadman books and Broadman authors; and<br />

ultimately to serve more people for the Master—through advertising.<br />

Book Stores<br />

The year 1952 was indeed a banner year for our Book Stores from the<br />

standpoint of sales. The total net sales for the year were $7,014,835.73, which<br />

represents an increase of $1,194,061.47 over 1951, or an increase of 20.51 per cent.<br />

Film Libraries<br />

The film library operation in our Baptist Book Stores experienced tremendous<br />

growth during the year 1952, with more than 40 per cent increase in sales of<br />

audio-visual aids materials. The number of film libraries has been increased<br />

from twenty-one to twenty-four, with twenty full-time visual aids consultants<br />

employed to serve the churches of the Southern Baptist Convention through the<br />

stores.<br />

Mailing and Shipping<br />

A personnel of 89 regular workers, plus an average of 160 part-time workers,<br />

is required to handle the large shipping program of the Board. A check into<br />

the 1952 records reveals that a total of 9,406,409 pounds of Uniform and Graded<br />

periodicals were shipped, which is a gain of 1,456,038 pounds over the previous<br />

year.<br />

Maintenance Department<br />

Our building expansion has greatly increased the duties of this department.<br />

With the nine additional stories to the Administration Building, the expansion<br />

of the Commerce Street Building (formerly occupied by the Baird-Ward Printing<br />

Company), and the remodeling of our Executive Building, it has been necessary<br />

to re-locate approximately two-thirds of our employees here at headquarters,<br />

making it possible for them to render more efficient service. We have 35 employees<br />

in this department.<br />

SOUTHERN BAPTIST ASSEMBLIES<br />

JOHN L HILL<br />

Director of Promotion for Ridgecrest and Glorieta Assemblies<br />

Shortly the subject of this brief article will be a reality. Baptists by the<br />

thousands will pronounce these three words with appreciation, satisfaction,<br />

and happiness. Soon will dawn upon the minds of our people the solid service<br />

of these assemblies. They are unifying our millions; they are making possible<br />

a fellowship and understanding; they are promoting joyous dedication of our<br />

best to the service of our Lord. The debt of Southern Baptists to their assemblies<br />

will be recognized and acknowledged.<br />

Ridgecrest<br />

Always the mother of assemblies, Ridgecrest wears the honor with expanding<br />

facilities and services. Many physical changes will be easily observable in highway<br />

construction, in enlarged auditorium, in improved and new structures, in<br />

261

beautiful landscapes. The spirit of Ridgecrest will never die, and ^ , jj^<br />

multitudes thronging her grounds will reflect the enthusiastic joy oi *• <<br />

preparation, consecration,'and dedication for which this historic assemu y<br />

famous.<br />

Glorieta<br />

In the mountains of enchanting New Mexico has arisen the vis ion of year<br />

the promise of the enlarging future. To Texas Hall and a ?°\f* a<br />

have been added completed structures which were under instruction last summer,<br />

and all the new buildings, six in number for which ground was broken<br />

during Pioneer Week, are nearing completion and will be ready for use during<br />

the summer. Glorieta promises to be a daughter worthy of her distinguished<br />

mother, and an associate of whom all Southern Baptists will be justly proud.<br />

In any effort to itemize the services of the Sunday School Board, surely<br />

near the top of the list must be the building, maintenance, promotion, and operation<br />

of our Southern Baptist Assemblies.<br />

tract issues to the grand total of 76,378,119. These are available in conservative<br />

quantities for judicious distribution through pastors and workers throughout<br />

The Sunday School Board<br />

of the Southern Baptist Convention<br />

Nashville, Tennessee<br />

We have examined the consolidated balance sheet of the Sunday School Board of the Southern<br />

Baptist Convention as of December 31, 1952, and the related statements of income and capital<br />

investment for the year then ended. Our examination was made in accordance with generally<br />

accepted auditing standards, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and<br />

such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.<br />

We did not examine the financial statements and records of the Atlanta, Georgia book store<br />

which was acquired by the Board as of December 31, 1952. As to this store, we have incorporated<br />

in the consolidated financial statements information -furnished by other accountants.<br />

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and related statements of income<br />

and capital investment present fairly the financial position of the Sunday School Board of the<br />

Southern Baptist Convention at December 31, 1952, and the results of its operations for the<br />

year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis<br />

consistent with that of the preceding year.<br />

McINTYRE AND ASSOCIATES


268 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

DIVISION OF BUSINESS MANAGEMENT<br />

H. E. INGRAHAM, Business Manager<br />

Progress is a thrilling word when you can look at the record and find it good.<br />

Progress is a demanding word when you look at possibilities that are so lar<br />

beyond what has been achieved. Progress, therefore, is both a thrilling and a<br />

demanding word as we consider it in connection with the work of the bunday<br />

School Board for the year 1952.<br />

The progress all along the line in every department has been marvelous and<br />

gives reason for the expression of deep gratitude to God. The tasks ahead are<br />

challenging indeed. There are so many people to be reached, so many to whom<br />

the Bible should be taught, so many who are to be won to Christ, and so many<br />

who should be developed in Christian service. To work with all of our denominational<br />

forces and with our churches in the accomplishment of these things is<br />

the business of the Sunday School Board.<br />

The figures showing the progress are recorded in the earlier portions of this<br />

report as given by the Executive Secretary-Treasurer. The study of these<br />

figures will be rewarding indeed to those among us concerned with the progress<br />

of these things.<br />

Dr. T. L. Holcomb<br />

Since, according to schedule, this is the last report we will make under the<br />

leadership of our Executive Secretary-Treasurer, Dr. T. L. Holcomb, we pause<br />

to pay tribute. For eighteen years he has led us, and for his ministry and for<br />

him we are deeply grateful to God. Marvelous indeed have been the achievements<br />

during these years. Wonderful beyond expression have been the comradeship<br />

and the inspiring leadership of this man who has walked before us, exhibiting<br />

the qualities of vision, faith, daring, and the application of untold<br />

energy. In another place we said about him that he has been a dreamer—a<br />

dramatist—a director—and a driver, all in the highest sense, and with devotion<br />

to God and a desire to serve the people as the energizing force of his ministry.<br />

In many ways and at many times we will try to say how much we have appreciated<br />

him and how much we are indebted to him. Here we simply record<br />

our gratitude to God for T. L. Holcomb and his years at the helm of this Board.<br />

New Organization<br />

Since the last Annual Report, the organizational set-up in the Business<br />

Division has been somewhat remade. The department alignment has been<br />

changed, and while the total number of departments has increased only one,<br />

some overlapping has been eliminated and provision has been made for quite a<br />

number of sub-sections in each department, with junior supervisory leadership.<br />

This constitutes the real expansion of the organization. The new set-up, with<br />

some of its detail, is revealed in the reports of the various departments of this<br />

division herein contained. We record deep appreciation of all the co-operation<br />

of the department heads and members of the Board itself in making these<br />

changes.<br />

Ridgecrest<br />

The 1952 season at Ridgecrest was outstanding. The attendance exceeded all<br />

records. Willard K. Weeks, who was serving his second season as manager,<br />

proved equal to the occasion and led in a wonderful" way.<br />

The program of improvements for the interim period between the 1952 and<br />

the 1953 seasons is somewhat ambitious and is well on the way to achievement.<br />

A new hotel housing unit for guests is being erected. This unit is to offer top<br />

accommodations. A new unit for staff girls is being erected, which had become<br />

a necessity. The new highway is being built across the front of the property by<br />

the state highway forces. They have been liberal in their adjustments and provided<br />

an adequate recreation ground across the railroad track to replace the<br />

one which they are using for the highway. They are building a pedestrian's<br />

underpass at the railroad and an approach from the hotel area to this new


SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD 269<br />

recreation ground. This new highway arrangement will be most helpful and<br />

conducive to greater safety in the handling of the huge crowds that attend<br />

Ridgecrest. The auditorium expansion is well under way and old friends of<br />

Ridgecrest will be delighted and surprised when they come and find that the<br />

auditorium has been extended out toward the road so as to provide approximately<br />

1,000 additional seats. Much repair and maintenance work is being done. Some<br />

additional paving is being done and other improvements are in process, including<br />

some very attractive improvements at the boys' camp.<br />

Glorieta<br />

Pioneer Week at Glorieta last August was a great success. We could take<br />

care of only about 200 people on the grounds, but over 1,400 people registered<br />

during the week. An amazing amount of building is being accomplished at<br />

Glorieta, and we expect to open in June with provision for around 600 people<br />

on the grounds each week. We know that these provisions will be fully utilized<br />

and that many others will find some place to stay up and down the highway.<br />

We expect an attendance of around 1,000 a week for twelve weeks at Glorieta in<br />

1953.<br />

The first units of the three major buildings are complete—that is, the dining<br />

hall, the administration building known as New Mexico Hall, and the auditorium.<br />

Major housing units being completed include Oklahoma Hall, Hall of States,<br />

Spruce Lodge, and Cedar Lodge. The tent-covered space which was used for a<br />

dining hall last summer has been covered and converted into a dormitory. The<br />

temporary auditorium which was used last summer has been divided up for<br />

conference room space. A staff building for girls is being created. Texas Hall<br />

was used last year during Pioneer Week but it has now been entirely completed.<br />

We expect to have a dam constructed before the season opens, providing a road<br />

from the auditorium to the dining hall and making a lake which will be a major<br />

center of attraction in the over-all plan.<br />

A number of cottages are being built and a number of churches are expecting<br />

to have cottages erected by summer. Some additional roads are being provided.<br />

A filling station is to be erected. A greenhouse has been built. This is in connection<br />

with Glorieta Gardens which is fast becoming a major attraction.<br />

All of this represents an amazing amount of work. We are grateful to E. A.<br />

Herron, manager at Glorieta, for his part in all of it. He is doing a grand job.<br />

Truly Glorieta is in the making and we say again that to be a part of it and to<br />

understand its significance and tremendous potentiality is to feel the pulse beat<br />

of a forward movement in the kingdom of God.<br />

The Nashville Buildings<br />

The nine-story addition to the Administration Building is practically complete.<br />

It is partially occupied. There has been a serious delay in the finishing<br />

of the roof so that it would not leak. This has been most annoying, but we are<br />

pressing through to a settlement of this difficulty.<br />

The process of moving from the Executive Building the departments that are<br />

to occupy new space in the Administration Building, and renovating both the<br />

Executive Building and the Commerce Street Building for the larger use of<br />

various expanding departments is going forward. Every bit of available space<br />

will be definitely needed and carefully utilized. There is much to do and it<br />

probably will take more than a year to get it done. A new elevator is being<br />

installed in the Executive Building. The first floor of this building is to be<br />

completely cleared and converted into a modern book store. The present<br />

quarters of the book store in the Administration Building will be reworked as the<br />

executive suite for the Executive Secretary-Treasurer.<br />

When all of this work is finished, Southern Baptists will have in Nashville<br />

for the housing of their Sunday School Board operations five major buildings—<br />

(1) The Executive Building on Eighth Avenue is a five-story office building.<br />

(2) The Shipping Building on Ninth Avenue and Berryhill is a six-story building<br />

of heavy construction. It adjoins (3) the Administration Building which has<br />

now become a twelve-story office building on Ninth Avenue down to Commerce<br />

Street. The rear of the Administration Building joins (4) the Commerce Street<br />

Building which was formerly occupied by the Baird-Ward Printing Companv<br />

but is now being used for merchandise stock and for shipping. (5) The fifth<br />

building is two miles away on a plot of ground at the edge of the city. It is


270 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

owned by the Sunday School Board but is occupied by our contract printers<br />

The Baird-Ward Printing Company. c .,<br />

The ownership of all this property by the Sunday School Board for boutnern<br />

Baptists enables the housing of our large operations at a tremendous savings.<br />

If this property had to be rented it would simply mean that literature would<br />

have to be sold at higher prices. Paying rent would be a dead expense tor the<br />

Sunday School Board without any tax elimination which we now pay.<br />

Baptist Bulletin Service<br />

A steady month-by-month increase in the Baptist Bulletin Service continues.<br />

Working toward a monthly circulation goal of 4,333,333, the all-time high of<br />

3,283,358 has already been reached.<br />

Mrs. Agnes Ford, in addition to her secretarial duties in the office of the<br />

business manager, is chairman of a special committee charged, with the continuous<br />

promotion of this direct service to our churches. In addition to thousands of<br />

churches already using the Bulletin Service, many others are being added each<br />

week as regular subscribers.<br />

Periodical Promotion<br />

Continuous promotion on all of our periodicals is being projected into our<br />

Convention territory. The ever-increasing circulation is evidence of the farreaching<br />

ministry and effectiveness of our literature.<br />

Through The Mailbag—a quarterly paper sent to those who order literature—<br />

through planned advertising, careful distribution of leftover literature, and<br />

thorough analyses of orders, a program of constant periodical promotion is<br />

conducted. Those in charge of promoting the use of our literature are fully<br />

conscious of their responsibility to get appropriate literature into the hands of<br />

the workers at the proper time in order that the work may be properly carried on.<br />

The total circulation of periodicals for 1952 was 50,027,842—an increase of<br />

4,202,789 over 1951. Major achievements may be noted in the increase of each<br />

periodical listed. Much prayer and work on the part of many—writers, editors,<br />

production workers, shipping department workers, field workers, pastors, superintendents,<br />

officers and teachers are reflected in this tabulation.<br />

Book printers throughout the country are used to produce our general books<br />

and songbooks on a competitive bid basis, whereas most of our regular study<br />

course books are done under contract with Baird-Ward Printing Company in<br />

Nashville.<br />

We are constantly striving to take advantage of the best wherever we can<br />

find it, and this policy has resulted in a very satisfactory volume of books,<br />

attractive in appearance, well-constructed, and delivered in time and in quantities<br />

to meet the needs of our churches.<br />

From January 1, 1952, to January 1, 1953, we have published 40 new book<br />

titles with a total of 742,273 copies. These new books are classified as follows:<br />

R. L MIDDLETON, Director<br />

ACCOUNTING DEPARTMENT<br />

The year 1952 was another year of enlarged opportunities and service for<br />

the Accounting Department. The continued growth of the work of the Board<br />

always reflects itself m the responsibilities of this department. When the Business<br />

Division was reorganized last year, much of the work done by the former<br />

Order Department was assigned to the Accounting Department. This is leading<br />

to a co-ordination of many phases of the work and the elimination of some overlapping,<br />

and it is our hope to render better service to our churches.<br />

The continued growth of our business reflects itself in everv area of the work<br />

During the year just closed, we received and processed nearly 257,000 cash letters<br />

as compared to 241,000 in 1951. These figures represent cash orders from our<br />

churches and individuals, together with payments on customers' accounts. In the<br />

same period we handled nearly 70,000 credit orders as compared to 68,000 the<br />

previous year, or total transactions of approximately 327,000. Our workers

coming irom the State Mission Board of Kentucky where he had charge of their<br />

business ottice. He is a fine addition to our staff. Mr. Alden came to the<br />

Accounting Department from the former Order Department where he had been<br />

working tor almost two years. His previous experience and denominational<br />

background makes him a most valuable worker. Mr. Stone came during the<br />

year from Arlington, Virginia. He is a graduate of the Southern Baptist<br />

Iheological Seminary in Louisville and prior to his seminary work had considerable<br />

business experience and training in the accounting field. He is an able<br />

and thousands of customers, both churches and individuals. We continue<br />

to be ever conscious of our stewardship in the safeguarding of the funds of the<br />

Board and every possible precaution is taken in the receiving and disbursing<br />

of these funds.<br />

We continue to be grateful for the fine way in which our customers respond<br />

to the request that their orders be sent to us early each quarter. Because of<br />

their co-operation, we have been able to make delivery of the literature to the<br />

churches and Sunday schools more promptly during the past year than ever<br />

before. We continue to study this phase of the work, looking toward even more<br />

prompt service in the future. We welcome every opportunity of serving the<br />

customers of our continuing enlarged territory and we always welcome their<br />

suggestions as to how our services may be improved.<br />

ADVERTISING DEPARTMENT<br />

WILLIAM D. KENDALL, Director<br />

This department—an outgrowth of the forward-looking and extensive reorganization<br />

of the Business Division, was set up in October, 1952. The personnel<br />

selected for this department were Melvin Hilderbrand, copy writer; Richmond<br />

Brown, copy writer and planning manager; Donald Hussey, layout artist; Mrs.<br />

Henry Scudder, secretary to the director; and Miss Dorothy Vantrease, general<br />

office secretary.<br />

Dedicated to serve every area of the Sunday School Board in its ministry<br />

to Southern Baptists, the mission of our department is to inform our people<br />

of the availability of the goods and services of the Board, and to point out their<br />

useful features; to publicize Broadman books and Broadman authors; and<br />

ultimately to serve more people for the Master—through advertising.<br />

Charged with these responsibilities the Advertising Department will use<br />

direct mail, catalogs, periodicals, newspapers, point of sales displays, exhibits,<br />

and publicity correlated to round out projected advertising campaigns.<br />

As rapidly as additional personnel can be secured the more complete functions<br />

of this department will be inaugurated. With full anticipation we dedicate<br />

ourselves to this work of rendering service to Southern Baptists through advertising.<br />

BOOK STORE DEPARTMENT<br />

JOHN H. WILLIAMS, Director<br />

This is a new department making its first report. It was created by auction<br />

of the Board in its June, 1952, meeting. The new Book Store Department is<br />

charged to work with our Baptist Book Stores, both in the field of sales promotion<br />

and administration.<br />

273


274 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

The work of the department has been organized into the following sections.<br />

Sales Promotion and Book Store Contacts—J. 0. Turner, Associate Director;<br />

Mission Books and General Books for Adults—Miss Mary Christian; Books lor<br />

Youth—Miss Doris Matthews; Children's Books and Bibles—Mrs. G. 1. L.obb;<br />

Audio-Visual Aids—Truett Myers; Church Supplies—Miss Mattie DeMontbreun;<br />

Book Store Office Procedure, Auditing, and Store Visitation—Miss Jane Bruce<br />

Jones. . ,<br />

The general administration of the stores is handled by the director with the<br />

business manager of the Sunday School Board. .<br />

The year 1952 saw considerable expansion in the Book Store ministry. _ The<br />

downtown store in Fort Worth, Texas, was opened and has been enthusiastically<br />

received. The formal opening was observed March 3.<br />

The store in Portland, Oregon, was moved from the basement of the church<br />

to a downtown location and is now well located to more adequately serve the<br />

northwest area.<br />

A small store was opened in Denver, Colorado, August 1 and the reports are<br />

very encouraging. .<br />

We were able to secure more space for the stores at Huntington Park,<br />

California; Charlotte, North Carolina; Tulsa, Oklahoma; Memphis, Tennessee;<br />

and Houston, Texas. In each case the additional space was secured in the same<br />

buildings in which the stores were located and we are confident the sales will<br />

increase and operations will be more efficient in the enlarged quarters.<br />

The store at Wichita, Kansas, has moved from the second floor of an office<br />

building to the street location and the remodeling of the building has been completed<br />

and new fixtures installed. The formal opening was held December 11.<br />

A new location was found for the Raleigh store and new fixtures installed.<br />

This store has been in crowded quarters for years with inadequate sales room<br />

space, stock room, and office space. The new store is beautiful and has been<br />

well received by all people in that area. A large group gathered for the opening<br />

on September 8.<br />

The Dallas store has now moved into the new Baptist Building and we hope<br />

this will be a permanent location.<br />

A new store was opened in Greenville, South Carolina, on December 12 with<br />

Miss Margaret Phillips as the manager. Miss Phillips is a native of Greenville<br />

but has been working in the Columbia store for four years, having served for<br />

two years as office manager and two years as floor sales manager.<br />

The store in Baltimore moved to larger quarters and now has adequate space<br />

to serve the state as well as the surrounding area.<br />

Some of the changes in personnel that took place during the year were as<br />

follows: Mrs. James Todd resigned as manager of the New Orleans store and<br />

was succeeded by Miss May Detherage who was transferred from manager of<br />

the Alexandria store. Mr. Carl Day, who had served in both the Fort Worth and<br />

Dallas stores as visual aids worker and assistant to the manager in Dallas, was<br />

appointed manager of the Alexandria store to replace Miss Detherage. Miss<br />

Clarice Taylor was transferred from Owensboro, Kentucky, to St. Louis, Missouri,<br />

to succeed Miss Margaret McKinney, who was appointed manager of the<br />

Richmond store. Mrs. Norena Martin has been appointed Acting Manager of<br />

the store in Owensboro until such time as a permanent manager can be named.<br />

We were happy indeed to secure the services of Mr. R. Maines Rawls as<br />

manager of the Nashville book store. Mr. Rawls has entered into his new work<br />

after having served about seven years as young people's worker in our Training<br />

Union Department. Mrs. Clara Shirley, former manager of the Nashville book<br />

store, has been transferred to the new Book Store Department to assist the director<br />

in scheduling the promotional work of the department. '<br />

The year 1952 was indeed a banner year for our book stores from the standpoint<br />

of sales. The total net sales for the year were $7,014,835.73, which represents<br />

an increase of $1,194,061.47 over the year 1951, or an increase of 20.51 per<br />

cent. A goal of IIV2 per cent increase over 1951 was adopted by the 1952<br />

Managers' Conference. This goal was exceeded. As reported in former years.<br />

the sales mentioned above do not include the sales for the Nashville book store<br />

or the book store which is operated at Ridgecrest Baptist Assemblv during the<br />

summer months. The sales for these two stores are included in the auditors'<br />

the Baptist Book Stores in each of these fields.<br />

ine mm library operation in our Baptist Book Stores experienced tremendous<br />

growtn during the year 1952, with more than a 40 per cent increase in sales of<br />

audio-visuals aids materials. The number of film libraries has been increased<br />

trom twenty-one to twenty-four with twenty full-time visual aids consultants<br />

employed to serve the churches of the Southern Baptist Convention through the<br />

stores. I he work of these store representatives is co-ordinated and re-enforced<br />

in the Book Store Department and a planned program of promotion and expansion<br />

is being carried out. A week's clinic for the Visual Aids Workers was held<br />

in Nashville in September. The results of this meeting has been far-reaching as<br />

shown in the increased service and sales. This phase of our work is advancing<br />

steadily to serve the needs of our people.<br />

The library consultants in the Book Stores work in close co-operation with<br />

Miss Florida Waite, Secretary of the Church Library Service of the Sunday<br />

School Board. During 1952 special emphasis has been placed on the rural and<br />

small church library program. Many new libraries have been formed during<br />

the year and work in this area will continue to be emphasized.<br />

The regular annual meeting of the Managers was held in Nashville March<br />

23-27, 1953. During the same week the Library Consultants were brought into<br />

Nashville for a special meeting.<br />

We continue to receive petitions and requests for new stores. There will be<br />

one and possibly two stores established before the Convention meets this year.<br />

Every effort is being made to study the requests for stores carefully and before<br />

establishing new stores they are presented for approval to the Advisory Committee<br />

of the Board. The number of stores will be expanded as the Convention<br />

grows and as capital can be provided. The constant and tremendous increase in<br />

sales remind us that service is being rendered to the individuals and to. the<br />

churches of the Southern Baptist Convention. We pray for continued expansion<br />

in this ministry and that the work and service might be pleasing to our Lord.<br />

MAILING AND SHIPPING DEPARTMENT<br />

CHESTER P. ELLIS, General Foreman<br />

A personnel of 89 regular workers, plus an average of 160 part-time workers<br />

is required to handle the large shipping program of the Sunday School Board.<br />

This department occupies eight full floors, totaling approximately 73,000 square<br />

feet of floor space for receiving, storing, and shipping. The thousands of orders<br />

for periodicals, merchandise, church bulletins and promotional leaflets coming<br />

to the Sunday School Board from our churches and book stores are shipped<br />

by this department. The work, under the supervision of capable foremen, is<br />

divided into sections—Uniform Periodical, Graded Literature and Merchandise<br />

Mailing, Post Office, Service Room, Receiving Room, and Direct Shipping.<br />

A check into the 1952 records reveals that a total of 9,406,409 pounds of<br />

Uniform and Graded periodicals were shipped, which is a gain of 1,456,038 pounds<br />

over the past year. This gain was more than double that of 1951 over 1950.<br />

Shipments of church bulletins, merchandise, and promotional leaflets to our book<br />

stores and churches continue also to show an increase, with the poundage passing<br />

the two-million mark.<br />

We, of the Shipping Department, rejoice to have had a part in this great<br />

year's work of the Sunday School Board. We are looking forward to an even<br />

greater year in 1953.<br />

our Administration Building and expansion to the Commerce Street Building<br />

(formerly occupied by Baird-Ward Printing Company) and the renovation oi<br />

our Executive Building, our approximately 500 regular employees and some<br />

100 part-time employees, are being re-located, making it possible for them to<br />

render more efficient service to our Convention. . ..<br />

This transition has greatly increased the responsibilities and the privileges<br />

of the Maintenance Department, which we face with a desire to continue witn<br />

the highest efficiency, that the Sunday School Board might render the very best<br />

possible service to Southern Baptists. ,<br />

We use the services of some 35 employees in this department in all phases ot<br />

its work.<br />

MERCHANDISING DEPARTMENT<br />

KEITH C. VON HAGEN, Director<br />

The responsibilities in this new department are great and the opportunities<br />

for service are tremendous. It is our desire to give good service to all our wholesale<br />

customers so they in turn can serve Southern Baptists and the general public<br />

all over the continent. The personnel is made up of some 50 conscientious<br />

workers co-operating in a common cause. All credit for the volume of work<br />

done and the efficient manner in which it is carried out is due to these workers.<br />

The work of the new Merchandising Department is fourfold: purchasing,<br />

wholesale sales promotion, order-billing, and order-filling.<br />

The purchasing is under the personal supervision of the director, with Mrs.<br />

S. H. Garrett as associate, Mrs. Jack Arrowhead, secretary, and two other assistants.<br />

It involves the requisitioning of all merchandise items published or<br />

manufactured by the Sunday School Board and Broadman Press. These requisitions<br />

are processed through the Production Department and final purchases<br />

are approved and confirmed in the office of the Business Manager. Purchase<br />

orders for wholesale merchandise items bought for resale through the Baptist<br />

Book Stores owned and operated by the Sunday School Board are sent direct<br />

to the vendors. These orders include combined purchases from the Baptist<br />

Book Stores for books, Bibles, and other merchandise on which we can earn<br />

quantity discounts; also certain supply items such as wrapping paper, shipping<br />

tape, printed forms, etc., used by the stores.<br />

The wholesale sales promotion is under the supervision of E. Odell Crowe,<br />

sales manager for Broadman Press, and three assistants. It is the responsibility<br />

of this section of the department to initiate and have produced advertising<br />

and promotional material for Broadman items, participate in the selection<br />

of Broadman items in retail advertising and promotion, and to direct a sales<br />

force to promote Broadman books and supplies to the forty-four Baptist Book<br />

Stores and also several thousand trade accounts throughout the United States<br />

and Canada. In addition to our own sales force we have a contract with a very<br />

fine sales representative in Canada who promotes Broadman books and supplies.<br />

This company has several salesmen who call on retail book stores all over<br />

Canada two or three times a year. Recently a contract has been made with a<br />

similar organization in the United States which employs five salesmen who will<br />

call on every recognized retail book store to represent Broadman Press from<br />

coast to coast. Our own sales force will concentrate on special accounts in the<br />

United States, such as other denominational publishing houses and independent<br />

church supply firms who issue annual catalogs. In addition to making personal<br />

visits in these books stores each year the promotional office of Broadman Press<br />

will constantly contact these accounts with direct mail advertising. The mailing<br />

lists have been broken down into several classifications including denominationally-owned<br />

book stores, privately-owned religious book stores, general book<br />

stores, college and seminary book stores, music stores, and visual aids departments.<br />

In the new organization the order-handling section of the Order Department<br />

and the wholesale order-billing section of the Accounting Department were<br />

combined. A new eight-part pre-billing invoice system has been installed. The<br />

perpetual inventory system has been modernized and mechanized. A complete<br />

new study of the order handling-billing has been made and a new routine installed,<br />

which will speed up the handling of the wholesale orders from our own<br />

Baptist Book Stores and recognized trade accounts. Thomas Henry Scudder<br />

is supervising this work and doing a fine job with a staff of fifteen workers.<br />

Under the new organization the order-filling responsibility for all merchandise<br />

was transferred from the Shipping Department to the new Merchandising De-

ments and book stores is under William Burk. Assembling of merchandise items<br />

into convenient and attractively designed package units is still another important<br />

section of this department's work.<br />

Periodical production is now reaching close to the goals set for attractive<br />

periodicals, delivered as needed. We proudly present our periodicals now and<br />

we have hopes in the near future of improving them even further. We ever<br />

expect to continue to give to our churches better periodicals. The work they are<br />

doing deserves the best.<br />

The year has been one of much greater stability, as far as costs are concerned,<br />

and has shown great improvement in production, since the human element<br />

involved seems everywhere more reliable, more willing to take interest<br />

and pride in good work.<br />

Thankful as we are for better working organization and for better production<br />

conditions, we are even more thankful that greater opportunities for development,<br />

for improvement, and for service to the churches lie immediately<br />

before us. There is so much to do, and the world and our Master both need<br />

our best. We are looking forward and upward, in our particular sphere of<br />

activity, with the dream ever before us of always doing better.<br />

DIVISION OF EDITORIAL SERVICE<br />

CLIFTON J. ALLEN, Editorial Secretary<br />

That men may know! That is the purpose of the editorial ministry of the<br />

Sunday School Board. This means knowing in the true sense: facts plus<br />

understanding, faith plus conviction, insight plus appreciation, experience plus<br />

practice. It means knowing the truth revealed in the Bible; knowing God as<br />

Creator, Father, and Ruler; knowing Christ as Saviour and Lord; knowing duty<br />

and true values; knowing the purpose of God and the joy of service; knowing<br />

Christian love and moral pow T er. It means knowing according to life's need—the<br />

child's yearning for security, the youth's quest for meaning, the mature person's<br />

demand for strength and motivation. For want of this kind of knowledge<br />

people perish. But, having such knowledge of the Word of God, they have<br />

salvation, and they become evangels of redemption. The periodicals, tracts, and<br />

books published by the Board are dedicated to this end: that the millions may<br />

know and live and serve. And to this end we renew our commitment.<br />

Division Organization and Work<br />

The work of the Editorial Division is largely assigned to the following five<br />

departments:<br />

Department of Sunday School Curriculum, Howard P. Colson, Editor in<br />

Chief<br />

Department of Training Union Curriculum, J. E. Lambdin, Editor in Chief<br />

Department of Home Curriculum, Joe W. Burton, Editor<br />

Book Editorial Department, W. J. Fallis, Book Editor<br />

Art Department, Herman F. Burns, Art Director<br />

The responsibility for general tracts and devotional materials is assigned<br />

to the editorial secretary's office and is under the editorship of Donald F. Ackland.<br />

The operation of the Joint Library is also a responsibility of the Editorial<br />

Division. Miss Helen Conger serves as librarian.<br />

The editorial responsibility for the promotional magazines and study course<br />

texts is carried by the heads of the respective departments in the Division of<br />

Education and Promotion.<br />

The fellowship in this ministry is marked by unity of spirit and serious<br />

dedication on the part of our workers. There are fifty-seven persons employed<br />

at present in the Division of Editorial Service; some twelve others in the Division<br />

of Education and Promotion have a major editorial assignment.


SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD<br />

New Location of Offices<br />

have Uiif ?1 epar tments in this division, except the Book Editorial Department,<br />

X L !r» tla nsferred to new quarters in the Administration Building. The<br />

splendid faciSies arranged for effective work. We are most grateful for such<br />

Joint Library Expansion<br />

f +v, he w ?1 + lt • Lil 1 r ^ ry ' combining the Board's Dargan Library and the collection<br />

in historical Commission, is under the direction of the editorial secretary<br />

and m\JN orman W. Cox. It is now installed on the fourth floor of the Administration<br />

Building. The physical layout for the library, including lighting,<br />

furniture, and equipment, is the best. The offices of the Historical Commission<br />

are adjacent to the library rooms.<br />

A vast amount of work has been done by the library staff during the past<br />

year in bringing together, cataloguing, and housing the excellent collection of<br />

historical materials. This work, of course, will be a continuing process. Special<br />

care is being taken to make historical materials available for reference and<br />

research.<br />

Under the librarian's direction we have purchased additional reference materials<br />

according to the library standards and procedures suggested by the<br />

American Library Association. The Dargan collection now includes about 10,000<br />

volumes. Fifty-four current magazines, especially valuable for reference, are<br />

received.<br />

Through the facilities of the Historical Commission, valuable materials of the<br />

Sunday School Board will be microfilmed. These will include all of the early<br />

publications of the Board.<br />

The Joint Library is rendering a very great service along these lines:<br />

facilities for research in Baptist history; reference and research for writers,<br />

editors, and other staff workers; verification of materials for use in Board<br />

publications; and gathering special materials for writers.<br />

Miss Conger merits hearty commendation for excellent work. She is taking<br />

special courses at Peabody College and expects to receive her M.A. in Library<br />

Science in August of this year.<br />

Writers' Conferences<br />

The annual Writers' Conference at Ridgecrest has grown steadily in its appeal<br />

to people interested in creative writing, editorial work, and effective religious<br />

publicity. We believe that significant results are being achieved in stimulating<br />

interest in the field of Christian journalism, discovering persons with special<br />

writing ability, training people already engaged in writing and editorial work.<br />

The conference at Ridgecrest for this summer is scheduled for July 30-August<br />

5. A similar conference will be held at Glorieta, August 24-30.<br />

These conferences will provide professional instruction in writing both fiction<br />

and nonfiction. A special feature at Ridgecrest will be workshops, in which<br />

awards will be offered for superior manuscripts.<br />

Devotional Materials and Tracts<br />

Under the editorship of Rev. Donald F. Ackland, and through the effective<br />

promotion given by our Committee on Periodicals Promotion, Open Windows<br />

is growing in popularity. It takes its place along with the best devotional<br />

materials published anywhere. If our churches will provide this devotional<br />

magazine for their members, it will help to turn them back to the Word and<br />

to prayer. A copy placed regularly in public places, waiting rooms, bus and<br />

train stations, and libraries would help to sow the seeds of revival.<br />

During the past year we have published a number of new tracts. A doctrinal<br />

series on the church received a highly gratifying reception. One of our recent<br />

titles, "My Home Is My Mission," by Alice Dawson Cheavens, was prepared<br />

at the request of and in co-operation with the Woman's Missionary Union. This<br />

tract magnifies the home as the highest mission of Christian womanhood. A<br />

forthcoming tract by Raymond M. Rigdon is planned for use by churches to be<br />

given to young men entering the armed services. A series of tracts on unscriptural<br />

sects is being prepared in response to the need in this area. After<br />

unexpected delays, the manuscript for a booklet, "The Ordination of Baptist<br />

Ministers," is in process. It should prove of great value to churches and<br />

prospective candidates for the ministry.<br />

279


280 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

The widespread use of our general evangelistic and doctrinal tracts and<br />

those for servicemen is a cause of deep gratitude. Just a tract may lead a soul<br />

to Christ or save a life from ruin.<br />

Missionary Co-operation<br />

Through the years we have sought diligently to be of assistance to overseas<br />

missionaries in the development of literature for use on the mission field. In<br />

response to the request of these missionaries, carbon copies and, more recently,<br />

many proofs of some of our materials have been sent for purposes of translation,<br />

adaptation, or suggestive guidance. Manuscript carbons of nine publications are<br />

being sent to three publication centers; and proofs of ten Sunday school quarterlies,<br />

six Training Union quarterlies, The Teacher, and Points for Emphasis<br />

are being sent to from one to seven centers. Both the missionaries and the<br />

officials of the Foreign Mission Board have expressed warm-hearted appreciation<br />

for the assistance we have sought to give in this way.<br />

A further instance of missionary co-operation is in connection with the Missionary<br />

Education Council of Southern Baptist agencies. Several of our staff<br />

members, appointed by the Executive Secretary, participate in the annual meeting<br />

of this Council. We feel certain that very significant values are accomplished<br />

in the improvement and correlation of the various materials in the field of missionary<br />

education.<br />

VELMA DARBO, Assistant Editor of The Teacher<br />

CHARLES F. TREADWAY, Editor Vacation Bible School Materials<br />

The preparation of Bible study and Bible teaching materials for the<br />

Sunday school is the primary function of this department. This involves the<br />

editorial supervision of forty-eight publications. The combined circulation of<br />

these publications is approximately 6,500,000. The preparation of lesson materials<br />

for the Vacation Bible schools is also now a part of the work of this department.<br />

Two Courses of Lessons<br />

The Board publishes two courses of Sunday school lessons: Uniform and<br />

Graded.<br />

Uniform Lessons.—These lessons are developed from the Outlines prepared by<br />

the Committee on the Uniform Series. Five members of our editorial staff serve<br />

on this committee and make a significant contribution to the creation of outlines<br />

on which are based the Sunday school lessons studied by some fifteen million<br />

people in the United States and Canada. The lessons published by our Board<br />

are, of course, our own lessons, written by Southern Baptists under the editorial<br />

direction of members of our staff.<br />

The Uniform Lessons are departmentally graded for the age groups Primary<br />

through Adult. Numerous adaptations of the Outlines are made by our editors<br />

to suit them to our particular needs. On the Primary and Junior levels these<br />

adaptations are very extensive.<br />

The units of study for the last two quarters of 1953 and the first two quarters<br />

of 1954 are as follows: "Letters to Churches and Pastors (Romans,<br />

Ephesians, Colossians, 1 and 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon)"; "Bible Teachings<br />

for a Better World"; "John—Gospel of Divine Love"; "The Northern Kingdom<br />

and Its Prophets." These lessons have remarkable variety, good coverage of<br />

Bible content, and vital application to life needs.

Graded Lessons.—This course is closely graded; that is, separate lessons are<br />

prepared lor each age year, Nursery through Intermediates, except that the<br />

same lessons are used for the four- and five-year-olds. These lessons are designed<br />

for use in schools large enough to have separate classes for each age year. The<br />

Bible material, lesson treatment, and teaching suggestions are chosen and planned<br />

so as to meet the needs, interests, and capacities of the pupils on the respective<br />

age levels. By being thus closely related to the pupil's stage of development<br />

these lessons make possible the most effective teaching.<br />

The Graded Lessons are truly Bible lessons, and they are so planned that<br />

when pupils have gone through the courses for the various departments they<br />

will have covered practically all the Bible material suitable for their general study.<br />

We urge pastors and superintendents to give serious consideration to the<br />

use of the Graded Lessons, if their schools have sufficient pupils for close grading.<br />

Information may be had by writing to the Board at Nashville.<br />

Teaching Helps Available<br />

For each age group, both in the Uniform and the Graded Lessons, there is a<br />

corresponding publication containing teaching helps. It has been found that<br />

some churches make the mistake of ordering only the pupils' quarterlies, thus<br />

robbing their teachers of the valuable helps available to assist them to do their<br />

best work. Both pupils' quarterlies and teachers' helps should be ordered for<br />

every age group, Nursery through Adult.<br />

How Lessons Are Prepared<br />

We should like for all Southern Baptists to know something of how their<br />

Sunday school lesson materials are prepared. First of all, after writers of the<br />

various lesson units have been prayerfully chosen, a conference with these<br />

writers is held at Nashville, in which every phase of the projected task is discussed<br />

under the leadership of the respective editors. Then each writer proceeds<br />

with his own task, submitting his finished manuscript to his respective editor,<br />

who in turn gives it the benefit of thoughtful and careful editing. But before it<br />

goes to the printer it is read by some qualified minister or other competent person<br />

outside the employed staff, and a final check of its doctrinal and biblical<br />

accuracy is made by the general editor of the Department of Sunday School<br />

Curriculum. Thus every effort is made to produce materials that will be educationally<br />

and doctrinally sound as well as written in good literary style.<br />

Special Stewardship Lesson<br />

Again this year special stewardship lessons for Adults and Young People,<br />

Intermediates, and Juniors are being prepared in response to the request of the<br />

state mission secretaries. The title of the lessons for Young People and Adults<br />

and Intermediates is "Honest Stewardship," based on Luke 19:12-26. The<br />

Junior topic is "Honest Work." Teaching helps for use on the four age levels<br />

will be printed in the October issues of The Sunday School Builder and The<br />

Teacher. Advance copies of the lesson leaflet will be available for state mission<br />

secretaries for promotional purposes.<br />

Color in Illustrated Weeklies<br />

Beginning with the issues of last December, color is now being used in pur<br />

illustrated weekly papers: Storytime for Beginners and Primaries, The Sentinel<br />

for Juniors, and Upward for Intermediates. These weeklies have shown a steady<br />

increase in circulation that is truly gratifying. It is our policy to make these<br />

papers a most valuable supplement to the Bible teaching ministry of the Sunday<br />

school. These papers can greatly help to meet the reading needs of children and<br />

youth in a day when cheap and unworthy literature is so abundant.<br />

Co-operating in "A Million More in '54"<br />

We are happy to co-operate in the movement to enrol "A Million More in<br />

'54" for Bible study. This program has significant implications for our editorial<br />

work. For one thing, we are wholeheartedly committed to the purpose of giving<br />

the campaign the best possible publicity through our publications. Furthermore,<br />

the movement means not only assurance of increased circulation and use<br />

of our Bible study helps; it means also that our editorial ministry must be<br />

expanded and improved. We are aware of the spiritual needs of the many new<br />

persons of all ages who will be enrolled in our Sunday schools. And we are<br />

seeking to offer wise suggestions in all of our teaching helps as to how teachers of<br />

all age groups may enrich their teaching ministry so as best to take advantage of<br />

the wonderful spiritual possibilities of this expansive crusade.<br />

New Vacation Bible School Editor<br />

Since the editorial responsibility for the Vacation Bible school curriculum<br />

has been assigned to the Department of Sunday School Curriculum, we have<br />

enlarged opportunity for service through this fine medium. For almost a year<br />

Dr. Charles F. Treadway was engaged in preparing to assume the editorial<br />

phases of the work which Dr. Homer L. Grice carried with outstanding distinction.<br />

On January 1, Dr. Treadway succeeded Dr. Grice as editor. Dr. Treadway,<br />

of course, works in close association with Rev. Sibley Burnett, who is in<br />

charge of the promotion of Vacation Bible school work for the Sunday School<br />

Department. With his excellent gifts and training, Dr. Treadway will render a<br />

highly significant service.<br />

New Young People's Editor<br />

In April Rev. Thomas E. McCollough was elected to succeed Dr. Raymond M.<br />

Rigdon as Young People's editor. He comes to us from graduate study at<br />

Southern Seminary, where he made a splendid record. He is a young man of<br />

sound faith, excellent training, pleasing personality, balanced viewpoint, and<br />

creative spirit. It is our conviction that he will become a very valuable member<br />

of our editorial staff. Dr. Rigdon was elected to the position of editor of Training<br />

Union lesson materials in February. His former associates in the Department<br />

of Sunday School Curriculum regretted to lose him from their midst but<br />

rejoice that their sister department has gained so capable a worker.<br />

ot tne nead of the department, he was transferred to this very important assignment<br />

on the first of April. We welcome him to the group and predict for<br />

him a career of useful service in this field.<br />

Lesson Plans for 1953<br />

Theme: "Learn from Me"<br />

Aim: To help us to learn and to practice the teachings of Jesus on the stewardship<br />

of life and possessions<br />

Scripture: "Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and<br />

lowly in heart and you will find rest for your souls" (Matt. 11: 29 RSV)<br />

The units of lessons for Young People and Adults are grouped around the<br />

monthly themes of the Training Union. Each month carries a full unit.<br />

The Junior and Intermediate units are loosely correlated with the themes and<br />

are graded to meet the basic needs of the Intermediates and Juniors in the<br />

field of church membership.<br />

The Primary units are graded to meet the needs of Primary children, providing<br />

for them religious instruction which is designed to lead them to accept<br />

Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour when they come to understand what<br />

that means.<br />

The Beginner and Nursery units are graded to meet the needs of children<br />

in these age groups.<br />

284 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

JOEW. BURTON, Editor<br />

DEPARTMENT OF HOME CURRICULUM<br />

REUBEN HERRING, Associate Editor Home Life<br />

Our home ministry has been intensified at every point—through Sunday<br />

school, Training Union, conventions and other denominational meetings, and<br />

other phases of denominational organizations. This ministry is in line with our<br />

standing policy which aims at permeating our total church educational program<br />

with a strong home emphasis. Thus it is not our policy to set up a _ new organization<br />

nor to prepare an independent body of curricular materials, but<br />

rather to channel all that we do for the home through existing church organizations.<br />

Personnel.—Mrs. Frank H. Leavell, home counselor, has helped in an intensive<br />

program in churches, assemblies, and conventions. She had engagements<br />

the past year in twelve colleges, sixteen churches, one pastors' conference, three<br />

conventions, three associational meetings, eight assemblies, two seminaries^, one<br />

school of nurses, one parent-teacher's association. She found time also to attend<br />

a family life institute. The demands for her time are far more than she can fill.<br />

Richmond 0. Brown, able editorial associate the past two years, has been<br />

transferred to a responsible position with the new Advertising Department.<br />

The vacancy thus created has been filled by the engagement of Reuben Herring<br />

of Dothan, Alabama, an experienced journalist and devoted Christian. He began<br />

his work January 1, 1953.<br />

Circulation.—Success has crowned our efforts to reach a circulation of 500,000<br />

in the monthly distribution of Home Life. This glorious result has been due<br />

chiefly, we believe, to two direct factors: first, the eager general interest and<br />

concern in the subject matter of the magazine; and second, its aggressive promotion<br />

by the Sunday School Department. In addition, the Art Department and<br />

contributors have co-operated to create a magazine which compels the interest of<br />

a reading audience. Our next circulation goal will be 1,000,000—which when<br />

realized will be no more than half of all the families in our churches who should<br />

receive Home Life.<br />

Christian Home Week.—Increasingly the first week in May is being observed<br />

as a period of special emphasis on Christian home building. A special packet<br />

of materials for this observance was mailed this spring to all pastors and<br />

denominational workers.<br />

Conventions and assemblies.—Again this year as in previous years one session<br />

of the Southern Baptist Convention in its annual meetings is devoted to the<br />

Christian home, the service being planned and directed by this department.<br />

Many state conventions in their annual meetings have given strong emphasis to<br />

the Christian home. The same has been true of assemblies and other, denominational<br />

meetings.<br />

Family Life Studytour.—Last summer the editor made a five weeks' Family<br />

Life Studytour of eight European countries, the trip being arranged under the<br />

joint sponsorship of Florida State University and New York State University.<br />

The editor has been deeply grateful for the opportunity to make this significant<br />

study of the factors affecting home life in the lands of northern Europe.<br />

WILLIAM J. FALLIS, Book Editor<br />

BOOK EDITORIAL DEPARTMENT<br />

"Who decides what manuscripts will become Broadman Books?" Because this<br />

question is so important to those who comtemplate submitting a manuscript for<br />

publication, and because Southern Baptists have a right to know its answer, we<br />

assay to give it briefly here.<br />

When a manuscript comes to this department, it is scanned by the book editor<br />

and then assigned to one or more competent appraisal readers if it seems to<br />

have possibilities for book publication. Most of our appraisal readers are pastors<br />

and lay men and women outside the Sunday School Board, though staff members<br />

share most helpfully in this responsibility. Along with their reports and his<br />

own evaluation of the manuscript, the< book editor presents the manuscript to<br />

the Book Committee. This committee is appointed by the Executive Secretary


SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD<br />

and consists of +<br />

editorial and h • teen men 0I Board personnel with representation from both<br />

on the signifiCa mess * ntere sts. The committee evaluates the appraisal reports<br />

described as Letht CU ° n - and mar keting problems. Regarding those books<br />

publish in 19bd at least one book under most of those subjects. In the third<br />

grouping of "perennials" we have done some publishing, but we need to discover<br />

more writers, bmce planning, writing, producing, and promoting books cannot<br />

De done nurriedly, this program can serve as a long-time guide for measuring<br />

our work and planning the future.<br />

In addition to the excellent help of the Book Committee, the book editor<br />

leans heavily upon the staff of the department, especially the copyreaders-<br />

Miss Lillian Phillips, Miss Kate Ellen Gruver, and James Yarborough.<br />

Throughout 1952 we received 167 manuscripts; 141 manuscripts were appraised<br />

and returned. As of March 1, 1953, 66 manuscripts were on hand, and<br />

40 of these have been approved and are in some stage of production or editorial<br />

handling. During 1952 we released the following:<br />

286 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

HERMAN F. BURNS, Art Director<br />

ART DEPARTMENT<br />

The most important event in the life of the Art Department during this<br />

Convention year has been our recent move to adequate new quarters on the tenth<br />

floor of the Administration Building. This has made possible a new plan of organization<br />

which we believe will greatly increase the creative productivity of<br />

our artists. A useful new feature is a small gallery making possible an exhibition<br />

planned to demonstrate comprehensively the publication processes through<br />

which our periodicals and books are prepared for distribution.<br />

The photography section of the Art Department has been granted space in<br />

our previous quarters for much needed expansion which will increase its capacity<br />

for service.<br />

Important new responsibility for art has come from the newly organized<br />

Advertising Department, and from the introduction of the use of color on the<br />

story papers and inside pages of certain other periodicals.<br />

Important personnel changes have come during the year. W. D. Kendall,<br />

associate art director, was elected advertising director in the Division of Business<br />

Management. Mr. Kendall has served us with great usefulness for thirteen<br />

years, and we pray for him a great career of service in this new position. We<br />

lost another valued artist in the leaving of Mrs. Luellen Stephenson last June.<br />

Herbert G. Boston and William B. Grandstaff, both men of fine professional<br />

education, have come to us during the year. Mrs. Dorothy Jackson was employed<br />

as secretary and general assistant to the Art Director.<br />

We acknowledge with deeply sincere gratitude the wise and sympathetic<br />

leadership which for eighteen years Dr. T. L. Holcomb has given to the development<br />

of the art program of the Sunday School Board.<br />

"A Million More in '54"<br />

The objective of Southern Baptist churches is to increase their Sunday school<br />

enrolment by one million during the Sunday school year, October, 1953-September,<br />

1954. We believe this objective is in harmony with the purpose of Jesus<br />

in the world. The reason back of this objective begins in the compassionate<br />

heart of the Father—"For God so loved the world."<br />

Expected Blessings<br />

The enrolment of a million more in Sunday school will provide a corresponding<br />

evangelistic opportunity. When the Sunday school gains go up, the number<br />

of baptisms also go up.<br />

Enrolling a million more in the Sunday schools will bring strength and expansion<br />

to all mission, educational, and benevolent causes fostered by Southern<br />

Baptists. It will enlarge Bible-teaching opportunities for the churches. It will<br />

prepare churches for a worldwide mission. It will help give America the answer<br />

to her urgent spiritual need.<br />

Other blessings that may be expected when this objective is completed are:<br />

A larger pattern of organization for every church. A fuller conception of the<br />

place of Bible teaching in the tasks of a church. A better understanding of the<br />

place and power of Sunday school when rightly used in the work of a church.<br />

The enlistment of many additional officers and teachers by September 27, 1953.<br />

A more rapid growth of the Sunday schools. More Sunday schools organized. A<br />

Training Union in every church. Larger and better church buildings. A Vacation<br />

Bible school in every church. More money for our mission causes. An enlarged<br />

evangelistic opportunity for the churches.<br />

The quest should be conducted in such a way that there will be permanency<br />

and fruitage and greater advances through the years. The churches by using<br />

"•igh-pressure methods may conceivably produce a net gain of one million in<br />

one year. Unless, however, the churches make adequate provision in trained<br />

workers and good programs of Bible teaching, Bible evangelism, and Christian<br />

training, the gains cannot be permanent or fruitful. Adequate preparation will<br />

prevent losses and guarantee permanency and good fruit.<br />

1953 Preparation Year<br />

A net Sunday school gain of one million in one year will require careful<br />

preparation far in advance of the beginning of the Sunday school year in October,<br />

1953. Six major items of preparation are necessary:<br />

The enlistment and training of additional workers<br />

The provision of more space<br />

The organization of thousands of new Sunday schools<br />

287


288 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Many churches should advance from a class Sunday school basis to a department<br />

Sunday school organization<br />

Theunenrolled people must be discovered and their names assigned to classes<br />

An impelling concern for lost people is necessary<br />

Unless the leaders in the churches are willing to make the necessary preparation<br />

during the next few months it will be difficult to enrol a million additional<br />

people in one year's time.<br />

September 20-27 Preparation Week<br />

The purpose of Preparation Week is to provide a time at the beginning of<br />

the Sunday school year when churches can organize the new units, plan a, program<br />

of visitation, and do the other things that are necessary to enrol "A Million<br />

More in '54."<br />

The Pull of the People<br />

A book The Pull of the People has been prepared for use in Preparation<br />

Week. This book was written by J. N. Barnette. It has been prepared especially<br />

for this quest. It will be available in the Book Stores early in August of this<br />

year. It is urged that in every church the pastor or superintendent teach this<br />

book. Each of the nine chapters deals with a definite part of the plans for the<br />

accomplishment of "A Million More in '54." The book is designed so that each<br />

church can adopt and put into operation the plans in each chapter during<br />

Preparation Week.<br />

The Use of the District Association Important<br />

Wherever the district associations have capable leaders, the Sunday school<br />

work has prospered. An increasing number of associations report a Vacation<br />

Bible school in every church. These achievements are the direct result of the<br />

work of associational Sunday school officers. The same thing is true of all phases<br />

of the Bible-teaching work.<br />

It is urged that associational moderators and associational boards give careful<br />

attention to the selection and enlistment of associational officers.<br />

The associational missionaries have been and are key leaders of all phases of<br />

work. They deserve more recognition, appreciation, and co-operation.<br />

Sofom• i Ri dgecrest Weeks are June 18-July 8, and the dates for the<br />

Glorieta Weeks are July 20-August 2.<br />

Special conferences have been planned for each of the weeks for pastors,<br />

educational directors, superintendents, and associational officers. Age group<br />

conlerences for each department in a Sunday school will be a vital part of the<br />

worK ior each day. Special conferences on visual aids, church architecture,<br />

and church libraries will be conducted each day. Daily Bible study periods led<br />

by the best available teachers have been planned for boys and girls who attend<br />

with parents who are Sunday school workers.<br />

Some of the general speakers and leaders for Ridgecrest are:<br />

Dr. Perry F. <strong>Web</strong>b<br />

Dr. James L. Sullivan<br />

Dr. T. L. Holcomb<br />

Dr. Jerome O. Williams<br />

Dr. Ralph A. Herring<br />

Dr. J. Clyde Turner<br />

Dr. Theodore F. Adams<br />

Dr. C. C. Warren<br />

Dr. J. R. Grant<br />

Some of the general leaders for the Glorieta Weeks are:<br />

Dr. H. H. Hobbs<br />

Dr. E. H. Westmoreland<br />

Dr. T. L. Holcomb<br />

Dr. Howard P. Colson<br />

Dr. Harold K. Graves<br />

Dr. Charles L. McKay<br />

Dr. Charles L. McKay joined the staff of the Sunday School Department<br />

July 1, 1952, as secretary of Enlargement and Enlistment for Evangelism<br />

through the Sunday school. Dr. McKay is now outlining plans for the promotion<br />

of these important phases of work. These plans will be carried in a series of<br />

folders and in a special page in The Sunday School Builder. Dr. McKay will<br />

work with pastors who desire his services in the use of the Sunday school in any<br />

and all these fields of work.<br />

The Chief Purpose of the Sunday School<br />

The basic ministry of the Sunday school revolves around the work of teaching<br />

God's Word to increasing multitudes of people. Teaching more people and<br />

teaching more effectively is the program.<br />

Enlargement is a constant objective, but only for the expanded opportunities<br />

of Bible teaching, and through Bible teaching for effective evangelism and full<br />

Christian stewardship.<br />

A growing number of churches each year are taking advantage of wider<br />

Bible study opportunities through a fuller use of the Sunday school.<br />

More time is being given to the Sunday morning schedule, seventy-five minutes<br />

in many schools, and the entire period, including the assembly programs, is<br />

being devoted to Bible study. Guidance for these programs is provided in each<br />

issue of The Sunday School Builder.<br />

The January Bible Study Week has come to be recognized and used as<br />

a vital part of a church Bible-teaching program. The suggested study for<br />

January 4-8, 1954, is Studies in Psalms. The manuscript was prepared by Dr.<br />

Kyle M. Yates.<br />

289


290 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

January Bible Study Week has grown in popularity each year until the<br />

majority of the churches offer this special week for group Bible study under<br />

pastoral leadership.<br />

Other Bible study books are used in special training classes, at prayer meeting<br />

hours, and by individual study plans.<br />

The Vacation Bible school continues as a vital part of the Sunday school<br />

work, last year providing for the churches 35,000,000 pupil hours of additional<br />

Bible study.<br />

Regular daily family Bible study in the homes is encouraged through family<br />

altars and the use of Home Life magazine.<br />

Again, Vacation Bible schools increased in number—to 21,741 or a gain of<br />

909 over 1951. The accompanying table shows the growth by years since 1944.<br />

In many schools there was also a growth in efficiency. There were only 259<br />

reported union schools. The churches are almost unanimously committed to<br />

each church having its own school. For the first time enrolment passed two<br />

million, reaching a total of 2,146,152. There were 2,059,163 above Nursery age,<br />

and 66,835 three-year-olds, with 20,154 in the younger_ Nurseries. (This is the<br />

first year materials for three-year-olds have been provided.) The faculty members<br />

in the four regular departments with general officers totaled 358,554. There<br />

were reported 4,658 Three-Year Nursery departments, and 2,352 Nurseries for<br />

younger children.<br />

Schools are known to have been held in 986 of the 994 co-operating associations<br />

and in 68% per cent of the churches. There were about 50,000 professions of<br />

faith, about 40,000 rededications by Christian pupils, and 11,516 having united<br />

with a church before the reports were mailed. There were some 146,000 pupils<br />

who attended school only one day (visitors) who were not counted in the enrolment;<br />

and about 155,000 enrolled pupils who attended no Sunday school. About<br />

15,000 college students served on the various faculties.<br />

More schools are making offerings for missions and a larger percentage of<br />

them are ffivinj? their offering for the Cooperative Program. Reporting schools<br />

onThis were 15^354 in 1952, with total gifts of $295,284, and 69 per cent of the


SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD<br />

schools giving to the Cooperative Program in contrast with 35 per cent in<br />

1947. Had all the schools reported on this item, the total would have been about<br />

one third of a million dollars.<br />

The average length of the schools is unfortunately being shortened. In 1952<br />

the schools had an average length of 6 9/10 days of 2 hours and 48 minutes—<br />

a total of 19 1/3 hours of a possible 30 hours, or a use of only 64 1/3 percentage<br />

of the 30 hours.<br />

The past year has been one of gratifying progress in Training Union. Sou<br />

ern Baptists are making progress in their thinking concerning the value of<br />

Training Union and in the firmer establishment of the work in our churches.<br />

High Marks of Progress in 1952<br />

The number of churches with Training Union is now 17,781, a net gain of<br />

895 for the year.<br />

The enrolment of the Training Union for 1952 was 1,677,293, a net gain of<br />

124,633 for the year. The percentage gain is 7.9 per cent.<br />

The Training Union Department issued 562,146 study course awards, a gain<br />

of 73,450 over the previous year. These requests came from 954 associations, a<br />

gain of 21 over the previous year, and from 11,802 churches, a gain of 1,019<br />

over the previous year.<br />

The three Training Union weeks at Ridgecrest registered 8,951 people.<br />

There were 1,307 commitments for full-time Christian service, and 73 accepted<br />

Christ during the assemblies.<br />

In December the Associational "M" Night meetings registered an attendance<br />

of 288,400, as against 231,928 for December of the previous year. The "M"<br />

Night meetings are the occasions for launching the program for the coming year.<br />

New Workers Added<br />

Significant steps have been taken during 1952 and in the early part of 1<br />

increase the personnel of the Training Union Department.<br />

On April 1, 1952, LaVerne Ashby came into the Department as director of<br />

Primary work. She came from the Inskip Baptist Church, Knoxville, Tennessee,<br />

where she had served two years as educational director. She is a native of<br />

Missouri, a graduate of Southwest Baptist College in Bolivar and William Jewel<br />

College, and a graduate in elementary education from the Southwestern Baptist<br />

Theological Seminary.<br />

During the year Ann Huguley was assigned as director of Nursery and<br />

Beginner work in the Training Union Department. She has been in the Department<br />

several years, but this is a new assignment for her.<br />

On July 1, Robert S. Cook took up his work in the Department as director<br />

of Adult work. He is a graduate of Baylor University and of Southwestern<br />

Baptist Theological Seminary in the School of Religious Education.<br />

Warren F. Jones, Jr., began his work as director of Young People's work<br />

in the Training Union Department on April 1, 1953. He is working part time<br />

until September 1, when he will assume the full responsibilities of this position.<br />

He is a graduate of Union University with the A.B. degree, of Peabody College<br />

with the M.A. degree, and finishes his work at Vanderbilt University for the<br />

Ph.D. degree this summer. He is an outstanding leader of youth in church and<br />

college, and is well equipped by natural leadership ability, by education, and by<br />

religious experience for this important assignment.<br />

On March 1, C. Aubrey Hearn was given a new assignment in the Training<br />

Union Department. For several years he has been the associate editor of<br />

Training Union publications. He is now director of the study course, in which<br />

position he will serve as editor of study course textbooks and also as director of<br />

the promotion of study course work throughout the Convention.

The Training Union Department co-operates with the state Training Union<br />

departments in developing all plans for promotion. We hold an annual conference<br />

in December, at which time we set up the promotional plans for a year hence.<br />

The Training Union Department conducts six weeks of Southern Baptist<br />

Convention-wide Training Union Assemblies, three weeks at Ridgecrest and three<br />

weeks at Glorieta. The Glorieta Assemblies will be initiated in the summer of 1953.<br />

The dates are August 3-23. The Ridgecrest dates are July 9-29. We promote<br />

all of our work through these assemblies, through the state assemblies, through<br />

state conventions, through associational events, and through many types of<br />

training schools and enlargement campaigns. In all of these events we work<br />

hand in hand with the state workers.<br />

The workers of the Training Union Department all carry specific responsibilities<br />

in the total program of promotion.<br />

DEPARTMENT OF STUDENT WORK<br />

G. KEARNIE KEEGAN, Secretary<br />

WILLIAM HALL PRESTON, Associate<br />

ROBERT S. DENNY, Associate<br />

ESTELLE SLATER, Associate<br />

BILLIE RUSSELL, Associate<br />

BILL B. CODY, Associate<br />

The year 1952-53 has been one of unusual expansion and growth in the Department<br />

of Student Work. Not only has the personnel been increased, but the<br />

ministry has been enlarged in a most gratifying manner. God has been gracious<br />

in blessings given as his will has been sought for this particular task.<br />

The Staff<br />

Two members have been added to the staff. Miss Johnnie Human came<br />

to the Department from the Editorial Division of the Board. She serves as<br />

editor of a monthly news bulletin-—"The Key"—and assists with The Baptist<br />

Student. Mr. Bill Cody came from Lexington where he served as Baptist student<br />

secretary at the University of Kentucky. He is the associate in charge of Student<br />

Evangelism and orientation of high school students. This brings our staff<br />

to a total of eleven, including the Secretary in Charge, five associates, two in<br />

the editorial section—Miss Louise Girling, assistant editor of The Baptist Student,<br />

and Miss Human—and Miss Nelle Arnold, office manager, and Miss Kathryn<br />

Jewell and Miss Phyllis Livingston, office assistants.<br />

Staff Campus Visitation<br />

Last year the Secretary and associates visited a majority of the campuses<br />

in twenty states. Plans are being made to enlarge this program of campus<br />

visitation in the coming year.<br />

Mr. Preston Honored<br />

This year marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of Mr. Preston's service in the<br />

Department. His contribution to the development of the program of Southern<br />

Baptist student work has been most significant. The students from over the<br />

South honored him at Ridgecrest and the November issue of The Baptist Student<br />

was dedicated to this effective student leader.<br />

The Baptist Student<br />

The circulation of The Baptist Student magazine increased 50 per cent during<br />

the year. Through the whole-hearted co-operation of the Periodical Promotion<br />

Committee of the Board, the state and local student secretaries, the churches<br />

and the students this periodical has reached an all-time high of 15,961 circulation.<br />

The goal for next year has been set at 25,000. Miss Girling has done a<br />

superior job of editing and make-up. The Art Department has made the<br />

magazine most attractive with its outstanding art work.<br />

Literature<br />

Last year the Department furnished the local campuses and state B.S.U.<br />

departments free literature in great volume. Some new pieces were published.<br />

Our existing literature is constantly subject to review and necessary revisions<br />

are being made. It is the purpose of this Department to provide the best in<br />

literature for use by our state and local Baptist Student Union forces. Samples<br />

are available upon request.<br />

Annual Events<br />

Literature is sent out and definite promotion given the annual program of<br />

B.S.U. as follows: Join-the-Church Day in September—Student Evangelistic<br />

Week in October—State Student Conventions in October and November—Student<br />

Night at Christmas the last Sunday in December—Volunteer Enlistment Week<br />

in January—Vocational Emphasis Week in February—Co-operative Mission<br />

Study in March—Follow up of Volunteer Enlistment in April—Student Retreat<br />

at Ridgecrest in June—Volunteer Summer Service in June, July, and August—<br />

Student Retreat at Glorieta in August.


SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD 297<br />

Student Retreat, Ridgecrest<br />

The 26th Annual Student Retreat was held at Ridgecrest, North Carolina,<br />

June 4-11, with more than 2,700 in attendance. The registration revealed<br />

representation from twenty-two states and eighteen foreign countries. Many<br />

students made significant life decisions during the week.<br />

International<br />

Through the generosity of the Foreign Mission Board and the students on<br />

the local campuses more than sixty overseas student guests were in attendance<br />

at Ridgecrest. Many of these students from other nations were not Christians.<br />

All expressed deep appreciation for the courtesies shown them. Some accepted<br />

Christ as their personal Saviour. This practical venture in international understanding<br />

and good will is being repeated this year.<br />

Mr. Denny visited Europe last summer in the interest of the Youth Committee<br />

of the Baptist World Alliance of which he is chairman. Miss Slater made a brief<br />

trip to Cuba. Mr. Preston was our department's representative in Hawaii for<br />

their summer assembly and other mission meetings.<br />

Plans have been made for a large number of students and student leaders to<br />

participate in the Fourth Baptist Youth World Conference to be held in Rio de<br />

Janeiro, Brazil, July 15-22 of this year. The Secretary and four of the associates<br />

are planning to attend this world meeting.<br />

State B.S.U. Conventions<br />

All State Student Conventions were well attended according to reports received<br />

in our office from the State Student Secretaries. The theme used was<br />

"Christ Must Reign." These student gatherings, held in October and November,<br />

are key meetings in the life of the State Baptist Student Union. Suggested<br />

plans and ideas for these conclaves are worked out in co-operation with the state<br />

student secretaries. Each year this department furnishes posters, badges, program<br />

covers, and other materials used in the promotion of the conventions.<br />

Student Summer Service<br />

The State Baptist Student Union forces in co-operation with the Foreign<br />

and Home Mission Boards and the Department of Student Work send out<br />

volunteer workers to serve during summer vacation on mission fields. These<br />

students are carefully selected by each state group and serve without remuneration<br />

on the assigned field. Their travel and incidental expenses are borne by<br />

the state B.S.U. groups. The mission boards provide for local entertainment<br />

while on the field. Last year twelve students served under the Foreign Mission<br />

Board—ten in Hawaii and two in Nigeria. Four served in Alaska, six in Cuba,<br />

two in Panama, sixteen in the western part of our country and three with<br />

language groups under the Home Mission Board. In addition to the thirty-one<br />

serving as volunteer summer workers, the Home Mission Board employed three<br />

hundred and thirty-six students in its regular summer program. Service at<br />

home is magnified—11,335 students helped in more than 12,000 Southern Baptist<br />

Vacation Bible Schools.<br />

Secretaries' Seminar<br />

A short refresher course for student secretaries was held at Southwestern<br />

Seminary, Fort Worth, July 21-25, with seventy-nine secretaries in attendance.<br />

The Seminar which was to have been held at the New Orleans Seminary this<br />

summer has been postponed because of its conflict with the Rio meeting and the<br />

inauguration of Student Week at Glorieta, August 24-30.<br />

Religious Focus Weeks<br />

The Department has sponsored jointly with six Baptist colleges and three<br />

Baptist Hospital Schools of Nursing a series of highly successful Focus Weeks.<br />

They are as follows:<br />

Georgetown College November 16-22<br />

Ouachita College January 11-16<br />

Mercer University January 18-23<br />

Mars Hill College February 8-13<br />

Howard College February 15-20<br />

William Jewell College February 22-27

St. Louis Baptist Hospital March 9-13<br />

Baptist Memorial Hospital March 29-April 3<br />

Arkansas Baptist Hospital April 20-24<br />

December Meeting of State Secretaries<br />

The Department was privileged to have as its guests in Nashville December<br />

15-17 all of the State Student Secretaries. These leaders came together for<br />

conference and planning. The meeting was most profitable. A similar meeting<br />

will be held in December of this year.<br />

Conclusion<br />

As we close this brief report may we register our gratitude to God for hi<br />

blessings on this important ministry of the Sunday School Board. To Dr. T. L.<br />

Holcomb, retiring executive secretary, we would pay just tribute for the great<br />

part he has had in the ministry to Southern Baptist students during the past<br />

eighteen years. To Dr. James L. Sullivan, executive secretary-elect, we pledge<br />

our wholehearted co-operation.<br />

DEPARTMENT OF CHURCH MUSIC<br />

W. HINES SIMS, Secretary and Editor<br />

LOREN R. WILLIAMS, Associate<br />

CLIFFORD A. HOLCOMB, Associate<br />

The progress of church music throughout the Southern Baptist Conven<br />

is being reflected everywhere in the increased opportunities provided for church<br />

members through the employment of full-time ministers of music and others<br />

who spend part of their time promoting a well balanced and comprehensive music<br />

education program that is adapted to the needs of the masses. The value of good<br />

music in evangelism, education, and worship is not only recognized, but good<br />

music is providing rich experiences for members of thousands of our churches.<br />

Personnel<br />

The tragic homegoing of our beloved B. B. McKinney has not only sad<br />

the hearts of members of the Sunday School Board, but thousands of friends and<br />

church members throughout the entire Convention territory. Dr. McKinney was<br />

injured September 2, 1952, in an automobile accident while returning from Music<br />

Week at Ridgecrest. He passed away at noon September 7, leaying a rich<br />

heritage and tradition of hymns, gospel songs, and music ministry. Our Convention<br />

has been blessed beyond words through his many years as secretary of<br />

the Music Department of the Board from 1935, until his passing. The writer<br />

of these notes, associate in the Department for six years, was elected head of the<br />

Department.<br />

Dr. Loren R. Williams, an experienced church musician and music educator,<br />

was elected as an associate in the department shortly before the going of Dr.<br />

McKinney. He came to the Board on August 25, 1952, from the First Baptist<br />

Church of Tulsa, Oklahoma, where he performed an outstanding service as<br />

minister of music.<br />

Clifford A. Holcomb for the past seven years director of music for the Florida<br />

State Convention, was elected by the Board in its November meeting to corne as<br />

an associate in the Department. He is qualified through training and rich<br />

experience in the field to do the type of state and associational promotional<br />

work needed now and in the future. He began his service with the Board<br />

December 15, 1952.<br />

Church Music Training Course<br />

already excellent series of Church Music Trainng Course books during the year.<br />

Pamphlets<br />

In order that churches and religious organizations may have practical aid in<br />

charting their music programs, and in having a ready source of suggested materials,<br />

methods, and techniques, a series of some twenty different titles of<br />

pamphlets is made available free of charge. These pamphlets are meeting a<br />

distinct need and we find it difficult to keep a sufficient supply on hand. Constant<br />

revision keeps them fresh and up-to-date.<br />

The Church Musician<br />

The circulation of our church music magazine,77ie Church Musician, continues<br />

to grow and the magazine itself is receiving much favorable publicity<br />

throughout the Convention. It is being recognized as a ready source of both good<br />

music for the choir and information for the church musicians.<br />

State Departments of Music<br />

Twelve states in the Southern Baptist Convention now have departments of<br />

music. California is the most recent state to set up a music program, and Mr.<br />

Al Adams is serving as director. Other states are planning a music department<br />

and we look forward tb the time when each state in the Convention will<br />

have such a department under the leadership of a full-time director.<br />

Hymnals and Songbooks<br />

Broadman Press hymnals and songbooks continue to be favorably received by<br />

churches of the Convention. They are also being used rather extensively by other<br />

denominations. Sales continue to average about 750,000 copies annually. We<br />

look forward to a time of publishing other books suited to the many and varying<br />

needs of the church music program.<br />

Ridgecrest<br />

The greatest Music Week in the history of Southern Baptist work was held<br />

at Ridgecrest, August 25-31, 1952. Considerably over 2,000 church musicians<br />

from over the entire country attended the conference and participated in classes,<br />

choirs, and varied activities. The conference closed with the singing of Handel's<br />

The Messiah by a chorus of approximately four hundred voices under the direction<br />

of Dupre Rhame of Furman University. The conference for 1953 is<br />

scheduled for August 25-31, and the oratorio will be Mendelssohn's Elijah.<br />

Glorieta<br />

With the opening of the Glorieta Assembly new opportunities will be provided<br />

for all church workers. Church musicians will be no exception and will have<br />

an opportunity to experience a great music conference there beginning June 8.<br />

Music Week will be the first week of the Glorieta season and will officially<br />

open the assembly. It will close on the 14th with the singing of The Messiah<br />

by Handel. A splendid faculty has been selected and extensive plans are being<br />

made for a highly successful meeting. We anticipate that Glorieta will be as<br />

popular as Ridgecrest and will meet the needs of thousands of church musicians<br />

throughout the great western area.<br />

Field Work<br />

A substantial portion of the time of the department personnel is spent in<br />

service to the various states, associations, and churches. State leadership<br />

schools, associational schools, and other activites are engaged in. Our greatest<br />

trouble is meeting the demand. #<br />

The work of the department becomes increasingly challenging and opportunities<br />

for service continue to grow. The future of church music is brighter<br />

today than ever before and we look forward with anticipation to the opportunities<br />

ahead.


SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD<br />

DEPARTMENT OF CHURCH ARCHITECTURE<br />

W. A. HARRELL, Secretary<br />

HARDIE C. BASS, JR., A.I.A., Associate<br />

The Department of Church Architecture is having more calls for service than<br />

ever before in its history. We are grateful for this opportunity to be of service<br />

to the churches and to the architects and would express our gratitude to God for<br />

his blessings and guidance during the past year. We would also express appreciation<br />

for loyal, faithful associates in the department and for the co-operation and<br />

help received from every department of the Sunday School Board and all the<br />

state mission forces.<br />

Scope of Service<br />

The department has served more than five thousand churches during the past<br />

year. These requests have come from the twenty-two states of the Southern<br />

Baptist Convention territory and from twenty-one states outside our Convention<br />

territory. It has been our privilege to join the forces of the Home Mission Board<br />

and the Foreign Mission Board in serving churches and schools from Africa,<br />

Alaska, Argentina, Brazil, Canada, China, Canal Zone, Cuba, Formosa, Germany,<br />

Hawaii, Indonesia, Switzerland, and Uruguay.<br />

A Million More in '54<br />

The objective for a net enrolment gain of one million during 1954, means that<br />

1953 will be a year of building preparation. Every Baptist church should either<br />

build more floor space, or buy more property which will provide additional floor<br />

space, or start additional churches and erect buildings for these new churches.<br />

Some churches should do all three of these things. Southern Baptist churches<br />

can fill the room if it is provided.<br />

A Satisfactory Time to Build<br />

There has not been a better time during the past ten years to build than at<br />

the present time. Restrictions have been removed, materials are available, and<br />

architects and contractors will welcome an opportunity to serve the churches.<br />

There will be an advantage in securing bids any time during the next several<br />

months.<br />

Secure Funds for the New Building Now<br />

A church should establish a building fund and seek to secure advance building<br />

funds as soon as the need for a new building has been realized. It is not<br />

necessary to determine the exact amount needed nor to decide on the exact building<br />

plan to be followed. It is suggested that a church should have at least onethird<br />

to one-half of the total cost of the new building in hand before construction<br />

is started. During the constructing period another one-third or at least<br />

one-fourth of the cost should be raised. This will make it necessary for the<br />

church to borrow only one-fourth to one-third of the amount needed. Such an<br />

amount is usually easily financed over a period of five, ten, to fifteen years.<br />

The Staff of the Department<br />

During the past year Rowland E. Crowder came from Louisiana as an associate<br />

in our department. We feel that we are fortunate in his coming. He is<br />

available for conferences and consultation with the churches and for engagements<br />

in the associational and state meetings.<br />

Hardie C. Bass, Jr., is a registered architect and a member of the American<br />

Institute of Architects. He is a capable associate in the department and directs<br />

the work of the drafting room and studio. T. Lee Anderton is our very capable<br />

chief draftsman and designer. Other draftsmen and designers in the department<br />

are as follows: Mrs. William T. Walker, Thomas E. Ervin, Jr., M. Headly<br />

McMains, Thomas W. Beasley, Jr., and Robert E; Mulloy.<br />

Mrs. Elisabeth Allen is the gracious and efficient office secretary and general<br />

assistant in the department. She supervises the mail received in the department,<br />

answers many requests for literature and other materials which come each dav!<br />

She is assisted by Mrs. Mary Alice Freeman, Miss Hazel Tippit, Mrs. Annie<br />

McDaniel Littlejohn, and Mrs. Sue Jones.<br />

The Department Service<br />

The secretary and entire staff of the department offer the churches and professional<br />

builders our maximum service at all times. Some of the things we are<br />

prepared to offer are:<br />

1. Consultants.—On request the department, including the full staff, will be<br />

glad to serve as consultants with architects employed by the church in planning<br />

and detailing a new building or remodeling program.<br />

2. Study of sketches or drawings.—On request the department staff will be<br />

glad to study any sketches, drawings, elevations, or perspectives which have been<br />

submitted to the churches.<br />

3. Working drawings and specifications.—Working drawings (blueprints) and<br />

specifications have been prepared for a limited number of small buildings—<br />

capacity three hundred or less; and the department can furnish these for guidance.<br />

No charge is made for the architectural service, but the churches are<br />

asked to pay for reproducing (blueprinting) and mailing the requested copies.<br />

4. Conferences.—Conferences in the department and studio with committees<br />

and architects at any time.<br />

5. Visits.—Visits to churches when possible for discussion, conferences, and a<br />

complete study of the situation.<br />

6. Sketches prepared.—After studying the situation, if desired, the department<br />

will prepare a floor plan layout and furnish prints of the sketches (blueprints)<br />

for either a new building or remodeling and enlargement.<br />

7. General Information.—We offer general information and suggestions regarding<br />

materials, acoustics, furnishings, decorations, lighting, heating, air<br />

conditioning, and other items. We can also furnish information regarding church<br />

architects and builders.<br />

Value of the Church Property<br />

The total value of all church property in the Southern Baptist Convention is<br />

now $890,697,330.00. This represents an increase of $129,186,501.00 during the<br />

past year. This information is gathered from the associational minutes and is<br />

reported by the Department of Survey, Statistics, and Information.<br />

Planning Better Church Buildings<br />

The book Planning Better Church Buildings has been prepared for building<br />

committees, deacons, Sunday school and Training Union officers, and other church<br />

leaders in preparation for a building program. It should also be studied by<br />

architects and builders. The book sets forth the program and requirements of a<br />

Baptist church building. It gives careful consideration to the requirements of the<br />

church auditorium as well as the educational program, the church music program,<br />

the library, visual aids, fellowship program, church offices, and other<br />

desirable features of a church building.<br />

Church Architectural Data Sheets<br />

The information contained in the Church Architectural Data Sheets and Check<br />

Lists is not available from any other source and has been favorably commented<br />

on by the American Institute of Architects. The department has endeavored to<br />

meet the needs and requests of the architects who serve the churches bv carefully<br />

preparing this data which undertakes to set forth the requirements of a Baptist<br />

church building both from a program and a technical, architectural standpoint.<br />

Copies of this material are in the hands of more than six hundred and* fifty<br />

architects throughout the states of the Convention territory and in several "states<br />

beyond. They are available on request.<br />

Literature and Helps<br />

Brochures, booklets, pamphlets, and leaflets have been prepared for pastors,<br />

building committees, and all others who must make a study and gather information<br />

regarding church buildings. The literature is offered without cost and is<br />

available upon request. Some of the titles are listed as follows:<br />

Homes for Pastors<br />

A portfolio of floor plans and designs suitable for homes for pastors i<br />

able. More churches are buying property and constructing a pastor's home.<br />

There are more than nine thousand pastors' homes in the Southern Baptist<br />

territory.<br />

Secure the <strong>Services</strong> of an Architect<br />

It is necessary for every church to employ an architect when it is time<br />

undertake a new building. Inadequate plans are far more costly than the services<br />

of the best architect. The church building requires more than the buildings for<br />

factories, stores, post offices, or even hospitals and schools. The preliminary<br />

plans prepared by the Department of Church Architecture at the request of the<br />

church planning and building committee should be placed in the hands of the most<br />

capable architect the church can employ.<br />

Rural Church Building Improvement<br />

If many rural churches are to have the best program of preaching, teachi<br />

and training, it will be necessary to add rooms to the present building. Many of<br />

these churches should provide for a department Sunday school and Training<br />

Union program. In every case basements should be avoided for Sunday school<br />

and Training Union purposes. A basement will only be needed for the furnace<br />

room. It is usually less expensive and never does it cost more to provide the<br />

Sunday school and Training Union rooms above ground at the back or side of the<br />

building.<br />

Every effort is being made to answer promptly each request that may come<br />

from a rural church. We v/elcome their pastors and committees in the department<br />

for conferences. Plans have been prepared (including construction drawings<br />

and specifications) with these churches in mind. They are available upon<br />

request.<br />

Conference and Exhibits<br />

Exhibit space and a conference room will be established in the exhibij;<br />

at the Southern Baptist Convention, Houston, Texas.<br />

During the past year many weeks have been spent in association, state, and<br />

Convention-wide meetings. The Sunday school secretaries have joined in visiting<br />

many churches in each of the states with but one exception. Each year more<br />

pastors and committees are coming to the department for conferences.<br />

During the past year the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville,<br />

Kentucky; Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Fort Worth, Texas; New<br />

Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary, New Orleans, Louisiana; and the Golden<br />

Gate Baptist Theological Seminary, Berkeley, California, have invited the<br />

department to conduct conferences, lead discussions, establish exhibits on church<br />

building for the benefit of the students.<br />

Churches Invited for Conferences<br />

All of the force of the department will put forth every effort to answer<br />

request that comes regarding help for constructing church buildings. ^ We invite<br />

the pastors and committees to come to the department at the Baptist Sunday<br />

School Board, Nashville, Tennessee, for conferences. If you will write, wire, or<br />

call us, we will be better prepared to welcome you at all times.

DEPARTMENT OF AUDIO-VISUAL AIDS<br />

RICHARD KORNMEYER, Associate<br />

MURRAY SEVERANCE, Associate<br />

MILDRED WILLIAMS, Assistant<br />

RALPH ROGERS, Cameraman<br />

MARY KITTRELL, Production Assistant<br />

Interest in the use of audio-visual aids continues to increase. This is refl<br />

in increased inquiries from the field, better response in field conferences, and<br />

increased rentals and sales through the Baptist Book Stores.<br />

I. Field Work<br />

Mr. Richard Kornmeyer and Miss Mildred Williams continue to devote their<br />

time to field promotion and the related ministries. Each other staff member<br />

spends some time in field conferences in order to stay closer to the people who<br />

are actually using the materials we produce and promote.<br />

II. Evaluation<br />

We continue to preview and evaluate all releases which may be of interest<br />

to our churches. These evaluations become the basis for selecting the materials<br />

to be promoted and sold through our stores. They also enable us to give guidance<br />

to churches in the selection of their materials.<br />

III. Counseling Service<br />

During the past year we have given guidance to independent religious film<br />

producers in the production of twenty-nine films (twenty-seven Bible films and<br />

two modern stories.) This service included work on scripts and technical assistance<br />

during shooting. The results are twenty-nine films which will be highly<br />

acceptable and beneficial in our churches. Cost to us was nominal, especially<br />

when looked at in the light of the cost of the films.<br />

IV. Production<br />

Our production program since the 1952 Convention has been the most<br />

ambitious yet. It included nine motion pictures and eleven filmstrips, or a total<br />

of twenty releases. Titles were as follows:<br />

Motion Pictures<br />

Lift Up Your Eyes<br />

He That Winneth<br />

Sword of the Spirit<br />

And Make Disciples<br />

A Workman Unashamed<br />

Filmstrips<br />

The Lord's Day<br />

Giving Thanks Always<br />

Learn From Me<br />

Let's All Go To Training Union<br />

White Unto Harvest<br />

He That Reapeth<br />

V. Co-operation with Other Agencies<br />

That They May Hear<br />

With His Help<br />

Home and Church<br />

The Way<br />

Words of Life<br />

Ye Are Witnesses<br />

Approved Unto God<br />

My Gift<br />

Paul, A Chosen Vessel<br />

In addition to the fine relation we have with the other agencies in the fiel<br />

of promotion and utilization, definite progress has been made in the area of cooperative<br />

film productions. Scripts are now being planned for 1953-54 shooting<br />

in co-operation with the Executive Committee and the Home Mission Board.<br />

Discussions are being carried on with several other agencies. That They May<br />

Hear is a co-operative production with the Foreign Mission Board.

VI. Looking Ahead<br />

I. Field Work<br />

Three Convention-wide workshops are planned for 1953. Other conferences<br />

will be held in connection with state and associational meetings.<br />

2. Production<br />

The production program is being stepped up to meet increasing needs.<br />

3. Staff<br />

Our staff starts another year with more training and experience in a highly<br />

technical field, and therefore, in a better position to adapt the resources at their<br />

disposal to the spiritual needs before us.<br />

DEPARTMENT OF SURVEY, STATISTICS, AND<br />

INFORMATION<br />

J. P. EDMUNDS, Secretary<br />

During the past six years, 1946-52, Southern Baptists have had a net gain<br />

25.6 per cent in church membership; 46-9 per cent in Sunday school enrolment;<br />

108.9 per cent in Training Union enrolment; 95.1 per cent in Vacation Bible<br />

school enrolment; 184.5 per cent in church property; and 115.2 per cent in total<br />

gifts.<br />

Southern Baptists have made that record, and to God be all the glory. But we<br />

are indebted to thousands of church and associational clerks for compiling and<br />

sharing their records. Without their co-operation, the information in the above<br />

paragraph would not be available. The record would have been made, but we<br />

would not have known about it.<br />

In addition to compiling and releasing our denominational statistics, our<br />

Department is called upon for special surveys and research in all areas of our<br />

denominational life. Several were released during the past year, and other<br />

important surveys are now being made. One is in the general field of "What is<br />

happening to our young people," and will be an extensive study of American<br />

youth in general, and Baptist youth in particular.<br />

The Southern Baptist ministers' list, used by many mailings, and published<br />

in the Convention Annual, is maintained by our Department; also the list of<br />

educational directors and ministers of music.<br />

The opportunities of our Department are augmented by three publications:<br />

"Survey Bulletin," a weekly fact-sheet of Baptist highlights, highlights in the<br />

world of religion, and general facts of interest; The Quarterly Review, a quarterly<br />

magazine for church and denominational leaders; and the annual Southern<br />

Baptist Handbook. The 1953 Handbook will be introduced at the Houston Convention.<br />

Since the above mentioned church and associational clerks play such an important<br />

part in the gathering and compiling of our records, we take great pride<br />

in listing herewith the associational clerks who were rated Superior in their<br />

1952 work.<br />

CHURCH LIBRARY SERVICE<br />

FLORIDA WAITE, Secretary<br />

This past year has seen the greatest improvement in library promotion yet<br />

witnessed by the Service. Church leadership is becoming more conscious of the<br />

need for proper and adequate physical provision of the library. The result is<br />

that hundreds of churches have adequately provided for the library in new<br />

buildings or remodeled ones. This attitude indicates progress.<br />

Another encouraging fact is that the library has become the book ministry<br />

of the church, and as such has more carefully selected leadership and church<br />

financial support. During the past year this new emphasis has been accepted<br />

by many churches.<br />

Rural and Small Church Library Campaign<br />

One of the most productive efforts heretofore made by Church Library<br />

Service was the rural and small church library campaign of 1952. The momentum<br />

set up by this effort to establish libraries in the small churches has<br />

carried over to 1953. For example, in February, 1953, with twenty-eight days,<br />

there were thirty-three new libraries established. Before the 1953 Convention<br />

date there is no doubt but that the 5,000 mark will be reached in the number of<br />

libraries.<br />

Library Consultants<br />

Twenty library consultants with headquarters in as many Baptist Book<br />

Stores are doing a superb job of library field promotion. Two of the managers<br />

have library promotion as part of their duties so actually we have twenty-two<br />

library consultants at work.<br />

These workers are brought together each year for instruction, training, and<br />

planning. The 1953 meeting was held in Nashville, March 23-27.<br />

Ridgecrest—Glorieta<br />

The eighth session of the School for Church Librarians at Ridgecrest will<br />

be held August 19-24. The thorough training of librarians is doing much for the<br />

stabilizing of the program. Last year 253 librarians were enrolled.<br />

July 13-19, 1953, are the dates for the first School for Church Librarians<br />

to be held at Glorieta. Programs for these two schools are planned to meet<br />

the needs of librarians.<br />

Besides these two schools, daily library conferences are scheduled for seven<br />

of the other weeks to be held at both Glorieta and Ridgecrest. Thus, including<br />

the two schools, there will be sixteen weeks of library promotion of a Southwide<br />

nature this summer. . . ,. .,<br />

The demonstration church library which is m operation the entire season at<br />

Ridgecrest will also be active again this summer At Glorieta a similar library<br />

will be established. Books in both of these libraries are carefully selected,<br />

of all.


SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD 313<br />

processed, and used not only as a demonstration, but as a circulating library<br />

during the three months.<br />

State Programs<br />

Under the direction of the state Consultants and in co-operation with the<br />

office of the Service each state conducted last year some special library promotion.<br />

Either tours or state meetings were held. Over five thousand attended<br />

these meetings in the various states.<br />

Church Library Bulletin<br />

The monthly "Church Library Bulletin" published by the Service is sent free<br />

of charge to all librarians and their pastors whose names appear on the mailing<br />

list of this office. This is an eight-page bulletin which carries promotional<br />

suggestions and stories of active, functioning libraries in the various states.<br />

From correspondence it seems that librarians rely on this publication to help<br />

direct their work.<br />

It is the earnest desire of the Secretary that this bulletin will eventually<br />

become a monthly subscription publication. There is no monthly magazine in<br />

the field of journalism for the promotion of church libraries. One is needed.<br />

Encouraging Evidence<br />

It is a great encouragement to those promoting libraries to find that a place<br />

is arranged on almost all major state programs of Sunday School and Training<br />

Union Departments for this promotion. This opportunity of presenting the book<br />

ministry to organizational groups is appreciated by library promoters.<br />

314 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

78 Years of Progress<br />

A RECORD OF GROWTH AND SERVICE<br />

Under the Leadership of<br />

T. L. HOLCOMB<br />

Executive Secretary-Treasurer<br />

1935-1953<br />

NOTE.—The following statement has been prepared by Jerome O.<br />

Williams, Harold E. Ingraham, and Clifton J. Allen, the heads of<br />

the three divisions of the Sunday School Board.<br />

Dr. T. L. Holcomb came to the leadership of the Sunday School Board June<br />

6, 1935. He followed in the illustrious line of J. M. Frost, T. P. Bell, and I. J.<br />

Van Ness—men who charted the course of the Sunday School Board for the<br />

first forty-four years of its history. He was called to this position from the<br />

pastorate of the First Baptist Church of Oklahoma City, having served previously<br />

in pastorates in his native Mississippi and in Texas, where for a brief time he<br />

was executive secretary of the Baptist General Convention of Texas. He thus<br />

came to his work in Nashville with rich pastoral experience, well known as a<br />

preacher of power and as a trusted denominational servant.<br />

In the capacity of executive secretary-treasurer, Dr. Holcomb has filled a<br />

position of tremendous responsibility. The Sunday School Board is the publishing<br />

agency of the Southern Baptist Convention and as such is responsible for the<br />

publication of the literature to be used in the churches and of books to serve our<br />

constituency. It also has the responsibility for suggesting and promoting a program<br />

of Bible teaching and Christian training in Southern Baptist churches.<br />

It operates a system of book stores, now forty-four in number, strategically<br />

located from Maryland to Oregon, which serve the churches as sources for books<br />

and supplies and serve the denomination as forces for Christian culture and<br />

co-operative action. Dr. Holcomb, therefore, as the executive leader of the<br />

Board, has been the administrator of a great business organization, the director<br />

of a great educational institution, and the leader of a spiritual agency influencing<br />

the lives of millions of people.<br />

The Sunday School Board has experienced marvelous growth during Dr.<br />

Holcomb's period of service. Its record of achievement in terms of service<br />

rendered, growth in resources, expansion of work, is nothing short of amazing.<br />

How can this progress be accounted for? (1) The favor of God has surely rested<br />

on its work—divine direction, divine protection, and divine power. (2) Growth<br />

has been a result of former labors—a strong foundation had been laid for a<br />

larger structure. (3) The combined energies, co-operative labors, intelligent<br />

planning, and consecrated service of a great host of Christians—employees of<br />

the Board, workers in the states, and workers in the churches—all explain the<br />

thrilling achievements of these years. (4) But in it all there has been the<br />

dynamic spirit of T. L. Holcomb, with vision and courage and faith and zeal,<br />

pointing out the way forward and inspiring people to serve the Lord.<br />

Dr. Holcomb has indeed been God's man to lead the Sunday School Board<br />

during these years. We call attention to some of the qualities that have made<br />

him a truly great leader: (1) He is a man of faith. He believes in God. He<br />

knows Christ in personal experience. He believes the Bible as the very Word


SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD<br />

of God. His faith has given him moral conviction, spiritual purpose, confident<br />

assurance, and certainty of action. (2) His life is marked by humility and<br />

unselfishness. He has not sought personal recognition but has sought to recognize<br />

others and give them opportunities to serve. He has not thought of<br />

hundreds of people working under him but working with him in serving the<br />

Lord. He has not sought gain. For a time he declined a salary increase voted<br />

by the Board and often has opened the way for others to have opportunities<br />

that were offered to him. (3) He is a man of vision. With remarkable insight<br />

he has been able to sense needs and see opportunities. He has been able to see<br />

the lost multitudes and the thousands of churches as a mighty spiritual potential<br />

and see waysto claim them for Christ. (4) He is friendly and fair toward all.<br />

His interest in people is genuine, his concern for their problems real. He has<br />

jealously guarded against favoritism and insisted on fairness toward the<br />

humblest and the highest. (5) He is tireless in energy and alert to duty. He<br />

has thus set an example of punctuality in service and consecration to work.<br />

With holy zeal he has sought to set forward every phase of the Sunday School<br />

Board's life.<br />

It is important to observe, further, some of the ideals and principles which<br />

have guided Dr. Holcomb in his leadership of the Sunday School Board. (1) He<br />

has stood for fidelity to the Bible. Emphasis on the content of the Bible in our<br />

literature, soundness in Bible interpretation, and faith in the power of the Word<br />

have been central in Board policy. (2) He has magnified evangelism. The<br />

publications and programs of the Board have reflected the supreme mission of<br />

winning lost people to faith in Christ. (3) He has been concerned to help<br />

weak and undeveloped churches. Dr. Holcomb's goal has been to take all that<br />

the Board has to offer to the smallest church in the remotest location. (4) He<br />

has emphasized the district association as the basic unit for denominational promotion<br />

and co-operation. His vision and emphasis along this line, enunciated<br />

within a few months after coming to the leadership of the Board, have been one<br />

of the chief factors in the progress of Southern Baptist growth since that time.<br />

(5) He has been concerned to cultivate denominational fellowship. With appreciation<br />

of the necessity for unity of spirit and effort on the part of all<br />

Convention agencies, he has sought constantly to build good will and co-operation.<br />

(6) Dr. Holcomb has stood for the stewardship of leadership and service.<br />

He has believed that the Sunday School Board has a mission to the churches<br />

and a responsibility to the Convention. He has insisted on going forward,<br />

challenging the constituency with a constructive program, and making service<br />

to the Lord Jesus Christ our supreme objective.<br />

Thus Dr. Holcomb has elicited the co-operation of the employees of the Board.<br />

the support of the trustees of the Board, and the confidence of the hosts of<br />

Southern Baptists.<br />

God has used this noble leader to do great things for Southern Baptists. All<br />

who have worked at the Sunday School Board have been inspired by his life and<br />

been blessed by the fellowship in service with him. We, therefore, count it a<br />

privilege to record something of the progress in the Board's life achieved under<br />

his leadership.<br />

I. PROGRESS IN PUBLICATION<br />

The past eighteen years have been marked by inspiring progress in the publication<br />

ministry of the Sunday School Board. New periodicals, improved curricular<br />

materials, an expanded book publishing program, the preparation of<br />

materials for Christian home life, a new emphasis on general tracts, larger use<br />

of design and illustration by skilful artists, an enlarged and better trained<br />

editorial staff, improved printing facilities, constant increases in circulation—<br />

all combine to make a thrilling record of growth and achievement. The vision,<br />

counsel, and support of Dr. Holcomb have been a major factor and force in all<br />

of this progress.<br />

Periodicals<br />

The publication of materials to set forward the cause of Bible study and<br />

Bible teaching, to point lost people to Christ, to guide and inspire Christian<br />

leaders, and to train Christians in faith and good works has been the very heart<br />

of the Sunday School Board's life. As the teaching and training work of the<br />

churches has expanded and new needs have arisen, the Board has issued new<br />

periodicals, combined others, and carried forward steps toward the improvement<br />

of all.<br />

New Periodicals<br />

The Story Hour Leader, begun the first quarter of 1937, made possible a<br />

much needed expansion of the Training Union's ministry with small children.<br />

The first of 1950 this periodical became The Primary Leader and The Nursery-<br />

Beginner Leader.<br />

Open Windows began with the April, 1937, issue. It was Dr. Holcomb's<br />

recognition of a vital need in Southern Baptist life and his suggestion that<br />

brought this highly important daily devotional periodical into being.<br />

The Sunday School Intermediate Teacher, now called The Intermediate<br />

Teacher, was started in the fourth quarter of 1940, thus definitely enriching the<br />

materials for the teachers of Intermediates.<br />

The Quarterly Review, first issued in 1941, fourth quarter, was primarily<br />

designed to provide factual material pertaining to the work of our denomination<br />

and to moral and social forces affecting Christian work.<br />

On Duty for God and Country was published especially for servicemen. It<br />

met an urgent need during the war years—1942-1946.<br />

The Braille Baptist, a periodical for blind people, was started with the<br />

October issue, 1946, and has been made available to blind people without charge.<br />

Home Life, successor to The Better Home and Cradle Roll Home, began with<br />

the January, 1947, issue. This periodical meets an urgent need for a Christian<br />

family magazine and has become one of the most significant publications of the<br />

Sunday School Board.<br />

The Church Musician came into being as the Board's ministry in the field of<br />

church music expanded and the need arose for a church music magazine. The<br />

first issue was October, 1950.<br />

Baptist Intermediate Union Quarterly I and Baptist Intermediate Union<br />

Quarterly II were issued beginning with the first of 1952. These two periodicals<br />

replaced one to make possible further grading of the materials for the Intermediate<br />

Training Union.<br />

Sunday School Lessons<br />

A thorough study of our Sunday school lesson materials, especially the<br />

Graded Series, was made in 1938-1939. A new course of lessons for Beginners<br />

was issued, beginning with the fourth quarter of 1940. The new Primary<br />

Graded Lessons came out the last quarter of 1941 and the new Junior Graded<br />

Lessons the last quarter of 1943—the pupils' books beautifully designed and<br />

printed in full color and the teachers' books including full color pictures for<br />

teaching purposes.<br />

A new course for the Nursery, age three, was undertaken. These lessons<br />

were published the last quarter of 1943. Another complete revision of the lessons<br />

for the three-year-olds has just been completed, the new materials appearing<br />

the last quarter of 1952. As the Nursery work expanded, it became necessary<br />

to prepare lessons for the two-year-olds. These appeared the last quarter of<br />

1949. A prominent feature of the Nursery lessons has been the preparation of<br />

materials to be used by the parents in making the learning experiences of the<br />

children on Sunday continue throughout the week.<br />

In the meanwhile, a new course of Graded Lessons for Intermediates was<br />

undertaken. These lessons were published, beginning with the fall quarter of<br />

1948. They combined to a remarkable degree coverage of Bible material, appeal<br />

to Intermediate interests, and attractive format.<br />

Like attention has been given to the improvement of our Uniform Lessons.<br />

The teaching helps for the teachers of all departments have been enriched<br />

through an increasing emphasis on teaching methods, comprehensive objectives<br />

and definite aims, and a more vital application of Bible truths to everyday life.<br />

Training Union Lessons<br />

The lesson materials for the Baptist Training Union have likewise undergone<br />

continuous improvement. The Primary Leader and the Nursery-Beginner Leader<br />

now provide guidance materials for working with the children of these age<br />

levels. These periodicals are supplemented by picture sets and other materials,<br />

all utilizing sound educational procedures and making possible a tremendously<br />

significant spiritual ministry in the lives of children of Nursery, Beginner, and<br />

Primary ages. The lesson materials for Juniors have been improved through a<br />

closer adaptation to the abilities, interests, and developing spiritual needs of<br />

this age group. More recently the Intermediate lessons have experienced a<br />

great step forward through better grading, one quarterly tor the thirteen- and<br />

have given themselves unreservedly to the doing of this increased work<br />

fourteen-year-olds and one for the fifteen- and sixteen-year-olds. The materials<br />

for Young People and Adults seek to bring the full challenge of Christian living<br />

and service to these groups.


Materials for the Home<br />

SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD<br />

Another tremendous step forward which Dr. Holcomb has championed and<br />

interpreted with profound insight has been the development of literature and<br />

the preparation of materials for the home. The Sunday School Board in<br />

December, 1945, authorized the creation of the Department of Home Curriculum.<br />

Soon the Board authorized the publication of Home Life, a Christian family<br />

magazine. This step was taken in recognition of the fundamental importance<br />

of the home in God's plan, the grave perils threatening the home, the mission of<br />

the church to reinforce the home, and the urgent need for materials to foster<br />

Christian family life. The circulation of Home Life has gained steadily, month<br />

by month—from 185,000 for the first issue to over 500,000 now. In addition to<br />

Home Life, the Board publishes a variety of other materials to guide churches<br />

in a home ministry and to cultivate Christian family living.<br />

Promotional Magazines<br />

The promotional magazines are designed to train and guide and inspire the<br />

leadership in the churches. In October, 1944, The Sunday School Builder was<br />

enlarged to provide materials for all Sunday school departments, thus absorbing<br />

the functions of Sunday School Young People and Adults, The Intermediate<br />

Counselor, and The Elementary Guide. The wisdom of this decision has been<br />

clearly evidenced by a combined circulation far in excess of the separate magazines<br />

and by the greater degree of unity of emphasis, organization, and method<br />

achieved in Sunday school work. The Baptist Training Union Magazine likewise<br />

has been increased in size to provide essential materials for the rapidly<br />

growing leadership of the Training Union. More recently The Church Musician<br />

has been started to promote a church music program and to provide music of<br />

high quality for church choirs. The Baptist Student has been improved in format<br />

and content, and the circulation has more than tripled during these years.<br />

Classification and Circulation<br />

The following statistics tell something of the thrilling story of our periodicals'<br />

ministry: (1) Total number of periodicals—65; (2) Sunday school—49; (3)<br />

Uniform Series—12; (4) Graded Series—33; (5) Training Union—10; (6)<br />

home—2; (7) for teachers and leaders—31; (8) for children—14; (9) for youth<br />

—8; (10) for young people and adults—9; combined circulation in 1952—<br />

50,027,842.<br />

Vacation Bible School Materials<br />

We note also the progress that has come in the Vacation Bible school curriculum.<br />

A new series of textbooks, the second to be published by the Board,<br />

began in 1938. These included texts for the Beginner, Primary, Junior, and<br />

Intermediate Departments—thirteen books in all. The Joint Service Book and<br />

other highly important materials have been published annually. A textbook for<br />

the Nursery department was published in 1951. Plans have been approved for a<br />

third series of textbooks and for dividing the work so that one person will give<br />

his full time to the editorial responsibility.<br />

Weekday Materials<br />

As a further expansion of our Bible teaching program, the Sunday School<br />

Board in June, 1952, authorized the employment of a person to guide in the<br />

preparation of materials for weekday religious teaching in the churches. Over<br />

a period of years Dr. Holcomb has increasingly felt that our Board should<br />

supply the materials needed by churches for weekday Bible teaching, both on the<br />

pre-school level and that of growing children and older boys and girls. He has<br />

thus given wholehearted support to maturing these plans.<br />

Tracts<br />

With deep concern for the masses of lost people and a conviction relative to<br />

the indoctrination and enlistment of Christians, Dr. Holcomb has insisted that<br />

the Board provide a continuously live series of tracts that would be useful to<br />

churches in winning the lost, counteracting false isms, combating the evils of<br />

beverage alcohol, and fostering spiritual growth on the part of Christians.<br />

The most significant single step forward in our tract ministry came in 1949<br />

when the Board employed an experienced person to edit general tracts and devotional<br />

materials. Many new processes have been initiated to effect improvement<br />

in the format and design of our tracts.<br />

317


318 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

In addition to the general tracts above referred to, the Board, through its<br />

several promotional departments, has issued hundreds of tracts dealing with<br />

every phase of the church's educational program and with our denominational<br />

ministry of teaching and training .<br />

The combined circulation of general evangelistic, doctrinal, and Christian life<br />

tracts plus the promotional tracts, 1935-1952, may be conservatively estimated<br />

as well beyond 200,000,000.<br />

Books<br />

The publication of books has become a major activity and service of the Sunday<br />

School Board. Dr. Holcomb has consistently given wise counsel and active<br />

support to every step that meant the development of the Broadman Press<br />

ministry. He has declared again and again the conviction that we must undergird<br />

Christian faith with culture and that Southern Baptists must match zeal<br />

with Bible knowledge, sound doctrine, and a high level of general culture.<br />

We mention here some significant developments in our book publishing activity<br />

since 1935.<br />

1. The staff of the Book Editorial Department has increased from two (the<br />

book editor and a secretary) to six, with plans already approved for further<br />

needed expansion.<br />

2. An agreement was made with the Foreign Mission Board to publish the<br />

mission study books of that Board July 1, 1938. A similar arrangement has<br />

been made with the Woman's Missionary Union. These arrangements have<br />

proved a unifying force in Southern Baptist life.<br />

3. The Board approved (1945) the expansion of our book publishing program<br />

to include children's books. The "Little Treasure Series" of Bible story books<br />

was started. Other valuable books in the children's field have appeared in<br />

recent years.<br />

4. Based on a thorough survey conducted under the leadership of the book<br />

editor, the Board approved, December 13, 1950, an expanded book publishing<br />

program designed to meet more adequately the needs of our constituency. This<br />

long-range program is now giving guidance to the book editor and Book Committee.<br />

It provides for coverage of such areas as: (1) Materials for Bible<br />

study, (2) Christian family life, (3) Baptist history and doctrine, (4) biography,<br />

(5) evangelism, (6) missions, (7) prayer and devotional experience, (8) program<br />

materials, (9) recreation, (10) Christian ethics and current social issues, (11)<br />

textbooks, (12) children's books, (13) sermons. The aim is to match the needs<br />

of Southern Baptists and those who can be served by our denomination.<br />

5. During these eighteen years the Board has published, either under the<br />

imprint of the Broadman Press or its own name, a total of 640 titles. The<br />

number of all study course books published in 1935 was 445,000; this number<br />

increased in 1952 to 1,965,961. The total copies of all books published in 1935<br />

was 829,353; in 1952 the total reached 3,459,076.<br />

Improving Our Publications<br />

Progress in the whole publishing ministry of the Sunday School Board has<br />

been evidenced through a program of continuous improvement of all publications.<br />

Large factors in this improvement have been the improved art services and improved<br />

production facilities of the Board.<br />

During Dr. Holcomb's tenure as executive secretary the art ministry of the<br />

Board has grown from one artist in a cubby hole to a department of thirteen<br />

consecrated and professionally trained people, now housed in ideal quarters on<br />

the tenth floor of the Administration Building. The Art Department is organized<br />

to serve the manifold art needs of our many publications; also to meet<br />

the needs in the art field of the Education and Promotion and Business divisions.<br />

The Production Department provides the guidance and supervision which aim<br />

at utilizing the best in printing processes.<br />

Improvement has also come in the content of our many publications through<br />

an enlarged and a better trained editorial staff. Through more staff resources<br />

it has been possible to plan lesson courses more pungently related to the needs<br />

of the various age levels. It has thus been possible to achieve a higher degree<br />

of functional value and more person-centered relatedness m our curricular materials.<br />

The increased use of photographic and art materials and greater attention<br />

to journalistic techniques have meant improvement in both content and<br />

appearance. The standard for books and tracts is a high level of significant<br />

content and reader appeal.


Expanded Library Facilities<br />

SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD 319<br />

The E. C. Dargan collection of books was accepted by the Board and made<br />

the basis of the Dargan Memorial Library in 1933. Through the years Dr.<br />

Holcomb has given the library both personal attention and active support. The<br />

library staff has increased from one person, giving part time to this work, to<br />

three, with a professionally trained librarian in charge.<br />

With far-seeing vision and with a desire to serve the denomination, Dr.<br />

Holcomb on March 28, 1946, suggested to the Sunday School Board that we<br />

offer to provide facilities for the collection of the Historical Commission of the<br />

Southern Baptist Convention. As a result, the office of the Historical Commission<br />

was later established in our buildings (February, 1951) and the historical<br />

collection was integrated with our Dargan Library. This Joint Library is now<br />

beautifully housed on the fourth floor of the Administration Building. It is<br />

operated by the Sunday School Board under the joint supervision of the editorial<br />

secretary of the Board and the executive secretary of the Historical Commission.<br />

It serves the staff of the Board and is a center for research in Baptist history.<br />

II. PROGRESS IN EDUCATIONAL MINISTRIES<br />

The educational ministry of the Sunday School Board parallels its publication<br />

ministry. Through this medium the Board seeks to fulfil its mission to serve<br />

the churches in promoting a vigorous program of Bible teaching and Christian<br />

training. Through the years the Board has sought to keep before the churches<br />

the centrality of teaching God's Word. It has felt an obligation to suggest plans<br />

of organization, educational procedures, and practical methods that would be<br />

the means to achieving great spiritual results in evangelism and Christian<br />

growth. God's seal of approval has crowned this ministry with success.<br />

The statesmanlike leadership of Dr. Holcomb has been felt to a remarkable<br />

degree in this phase of the Board's life. He has kept the worth of the people<br />

and the urgency of their spiritual need before us. He has given support to<br />

building the strongest possible staff of godly and well-trained people for aggressive<br />

leadership in this field. He has wisely guided the Board to invest funds<br />

to set forward a Convention-wide ministry of teaching and training. His burning<br />

heart has united a great corps of workers here at the Board and in the<br />

states in commitment to a supreme task.<br />

The paragraphs which follow call attention to some of the major aspects of<br />

growth during these eighteen years of progress.<br />

Church Buildings<br />

If a church is to promote the best possible program of Christian education,<br />

it is essential to have an adequate building to accommodate the people in Bible<br />

teaching, membership training, and worship services.<br />

During these eighteen years it has been the ambition of Dr. Holcomb to offer<br />

help to every church in the Southern Baptist Convention which is in process of<br />

repairing an old building or erecting a new one. The Department of Church<br />

Architecture has furnished plans for many great church auditoriums and educational<br />

buildings during these years, as well as thousands of the smaller ones.<br />

It is safe to say that at least 16,000 Baptist churches have either erected new<br />

buildings or added to their buildings during these eighteen years.<br />

The value of local church property of Southern Baptist churches has increased<br />

more than $600,000,000 during this period.<br />

Demands for the use of the floor space in a church building have changed<br />

in the last eighteen years. In 1935 Junior and Intermediate departments of the<br />

ordinary Sunday school required approximately 38 per cent of the floor space.<br />

Now Nursery departments require at least 8 per cent and sometimes 12 per<br />

cent of the entire floor space of a building. The Adult departments have been<br />

developed where they require at least 35 per cent of the floor space and in some<br />

cases 50 per cent.<br />

Sunday School Work<br />

Dr. Holcomb came to the Sunday School Board with faith in the Bible and<br />

a deep conviction that it should be taught to all the people who could be<br />

reached by all the churches. He determined that this Board should offer to the<br />

churches—even to the last church—everything that it had learned by experience<br />

about building Sunday schools, teaching the Bible, and training church members.


320 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

He advocated the reaching of people by organizing mission schools and organizing<br />

more departments in schools that were operated on the class basis, by grading<br />

and promoting Adults, by enlisting Cradle Roll and Nursery children and their<br />

parents, and by use of the associations as effective means of promoting Bible<br />

teaching.<br />

Some of the results which have been accomplished through these eighteen<br />

years are as follows:<br />

1935 1952<br />

Sunday schools 22,383 28,000<br />

Sunday school enrolment 3,157,458 5,500,000<br />

Churches reporting training 3,000 11,837<br />

Training awards 122,866 488,696<br />

Another Bible teaching movement that was started during these eighteen<br />

years is the January Bible Study Week, which began in 1948 with the study of<br />

Ephesians. Reports that year indicated that 23,590 people studied the book.<br />

It is estimated that during January of 1953 more than 300,000 people studied<br />

the book of Philippians.<br />

Training Union Work<br />

It would be impossible for anyone to estimate accurately the value of th<br />

leadership of Dr. Holcomb in the field of Baptist Training Union during the last<br />

eighteen years. He came to the Board with a vision of the work in every church,<br />

with a deep conviction concerning its value, with a workable plan for promoting<br />

it, and with a consecrated personality that has continously inspired interest in it.<br />

Some of the concrete statistical gains during these years are:<br />

In 1935—12,006 churches reported some phase of the work<br />

In 1952—17,781 churches reported some phase of the work, a 48 per cent<br />

gain<br />

In 1935—enrolment in Baptist Training Union, 669,230<br />

In 1952—enrolment, 1,677,293, a 150.6 per cent gain<br />

In 1935—197,093 Training Union study course awards<br />

In 1952—562,146 awards, a net gain of 365,053<br />

Much progress has been made in areas which cannot be computed with<br />

statistics. Some of these are the recognition of the Training Union as an educational<br />

agency in our churches, the place now occupied by the Training Union<br />

in Southern Baptist life, and the enlarged circle of trained leaders as a result<br />

of the work of the Training Union.<br />

Vacation Bible Schools<br />

When Dr. Holcomb became executive secretary of the Baptist Sunday School<br />

Board in 1935, there were 1,044 Vacation Bible schools conducted with an enrolment<br />

of 140,878. In 1952 there were 21,741 schools, or a total gain of 20,697<br />

in the eighteen years. Enrolment in 1952 was 2,059,163 or a gain of 1,908,285.<br />

These numerical figures are phenomenal.<br />

Progress in other ways has been most significant, such as the discovery and<br />

development of workers, both teachers and leaders, the creation of love for the<br />

churches on the part of the pupils and leaders, and the inspiration given to<br />

churches for the organization of Sunday schools and Baptist Training Unions.<br />

Churches have been led to erect more adequate buildings. Thousands have been<br />

won to Christ and to membership in the church. Boys and girls have gained a<br />

vision of the mission fields and heard the call to mission work.<br />

The view has often been expressed by Dr. Holcomb that the progress in<br />

Vacation Bible school work might serve as a test and seal of God's approval<br />

on all our varied ministries.<br />

Church Library Promotion<br />

Dr. Holcomb came to the Board with a conviction about the ministrv of<br />

books and has heartily promoted the church library program. Note these steps<br />

of progress: , , ... . ,,<br />

1. In 1935 there were around 500 church libraries on the mailing Hst of the<br />

Library Promotion office. „ . ,<br />

2. In 1940 the Board made an offer of a ^t of free books to all churches<br />

that would match the offer and establish a new J lbrar y- Thus it has J?l„<br />

approximately 5,000 sets of books from January 1, 1940, to the present in h e?S<br />

to establish new church libraries. ** s


SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD 321<br />

3. In November, 1943, the Board set up a unit for library promotion k<br />

as the Church Library Service. At that time there were 1,525 libraries registered<br />

with the Board. In January of this year there were 4,845 registered libraries. _<br />

4. The four-page Monthly Church Library Bulletin was authorized and is<br />

functioning to a good advantage.<br />

5.^ A 1,000-volume library was established in connection with the Ridgecrest<br />

Baptist Assembly for demonstration and circulation. During last summer more<br />

than 6,000 books were circulated to 3,200 borrowers. Glorieta is to have a<br />

similar library.<br />

6. The employment of library consultants was authorized by the Board in<br />

1945. These consultants spend part of the time in the Book Stores filling library<br />

orders, and a greater portion of their time with the churches helping to establish<br />

and to promote the use of libraries in the churches. Twenty-one consultants are<br />

engaged in this type of work now.<br />

7. In 1946 a School for Church Librarians was conducted at Ridgecrest<br />

with 121 church librarians reached. Last year this school, in its seventh session,<br />

enrolled 253 church librarians.<br />

8. A campaign for establishing church libraries in rural and small churches<br />

was authorized February 22, 1952. Three hundred eight churches took advantage<br />

of this service during last summer and organized church libraries. Dr.<br />

Holcomb's enthusiastic co-operation and approval of this plan means much to its<br />

success.<br />

Church Music<br />

When Dr. Holcomb became executive secretary of the Baptist Sunday School<br />

Board he realized the necessity for immediate action in the field of church music,<br />

for aiding in worship, education, and evangelism. Several steps of progress are<br />

noted:<br />

1. B. B. McKinney of Southwestern Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas, was<br />

employed December 1, 1935, to write, edit, and assist in publishing music.<br />

2. The Broadman Hymnal was published in 1940 and soon gained the place<br />

as the leading hymnal for Southern Baptist churches.<br />

3. On August 20, 1941, the Board authorized the organization of the Department<br />

of Church Music.<br />

4. The Southern Baptist Convention, in its meeting in May, 1944, charged<br />

the Sunday School Board with the responsibility of developing and promoting a<br />

comprehensive church music educational program that would meet the needs of<br />

our churches.<br />

5. In the meeting of the Board in September, 1944, the Board authorized cooperation<br />

with the state mission boards in the employment of a secretary of<br />

music on the same basis as secretaries of Sunday school and Training Union<br />

work. Twelve states have organized Departments of Church Music and others<br />

are in the process.<br />

6. In June, 1945, the Board authorized the purchase of the song book business<br />

of Robert H. Coleman of Dallas, Texas. This secured for the Board a<br />

larger number of copyrights on songs and a wider contact with publishers for<br />

securing copyright privileges.<br />

7. In October, 1950, the Board published the first issue of its magazine in this<br />

field, The Church Musician.<br />

8. The number of workers serving in the Department of Church Music is<br />

now six.<br />

9. The Anderson Music Typographic Service of Chicago was purchased by the<br />

Board and moved to Nashville, May 1, 1948. This has greatly expedited our<br />

getting music plates for song book and other needs.<br />

Audio-Visual Aids<br />

Eighteen years ago there was very little interest in the use of audio-visual<br />

aids in religious^ education. During this period at least eight advance steps<br />

have been made in this field of increasingly important service:<br />

1. The Sunday School Board joined the Religious Film Association for a test<br />

period. This connection helped to create greater interest in this field.<br />

2. The Visual Aids Service was authorized by the Board in its meeting in<br />

December, 1943. The Service was supervised by the head of the Division of<br />

Education and Promotion and functioned through a committee representing<br />

different phases of the work of the Board. Nearly a year later a regular staff<br />

worker was placed in charge of this Service.


322 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

3. A six-point program for this Service was approved and ina "f^ ra /o\'<br />

March 1, 1946: (1) education and promotion, (2) previews and f^ u ^"'d v 't<br />

curriculum integration, (4) distribution, (5) advisory service to maepeuuem<br />

producers, (6) publication. . M iqcn<br />

4. The Southern Baptist Convention, in its meeting in Chicago, ?y> J£><br />

requested the Sunday School Board to set up a production service ot auaio-vibuai<br />

aids for Southern Baptist Convention agencies and institutions. QaT.„,-„„<br />

5. In the meeting of the Board, December 12, 1951, the Visual Aids ^vice<br />

was made the Department of Audio-Visual Aids and assigned additional responsibilities.<br />

The staff in the department has grown to eight. „..<br />

6. All Board productions are released under the name of Broadman turns.<br />

By July, 1953, Broadman releases will total more than thirty. An ever-increasing<br />

program is planned for this phase of the work.<br />

Student Work<br />

Some increases in Baptist Student Work during these years:<br />

1. Increase in Department personnel from 5 to 12<br />

2. Increase in the state student secretaries from 3 to 21<br />

8. Increase in campus secretaries from 19 to 118<br />

4. Increase in attendance of Retreat at Ridgecrest from 900 to 2,800<br />

5. Increase in circulation of The Baptist Student from 5,000 to 15,000<br />

6. Religious Focus Weeks and summer missionary movement both launched<br />

with great success<br />

Survey, Statistics, and Information<br />

Our work in the statistical field has come to be of outstanding importan<br />

all phases of the Board's life and for the entire denomination. Accurate information<br />

has revealed problems and needs and given guidance for action. We mention<br />

the following developments:<br />

1. Improved methods and standardized forms of collecting statistics have<br />

been inaugurated.<br />

2. A system of improved records has been instituted.<br />

3. A valuable collection of Baptist historical materials has been accumulated.<br />

4. The Quarterly Review was begun the first quarter of 1941.<br />

5. Modern International Business Machines have been installed, greatly<br />

facilitating accurate records and quick information.<br />

6. An enlarged service in the field of surveys.<br />

7. The issuance of "The Survey Bulletin," a weekly fact sheet widely distributed<br />

to denominational leaders.<br />

8. A regular service program of gathering, interpreting, and supplying<br />

statistical information to the denomination.<br />

Christian Recreation<br />

In November, 1943, the Board authorized a service known as the Christian<br />

Recreation Service. A committee of staff members was appointed immediately<br />

to confer about this phase of the work and to issue such literature as tracts,<br />

plays, and articles in magazines and books as would be helpful to our people<br />

in this field.<br />

During the Assembly at Ridgecrest in 1948 and each Assembly following<br />

until the present, the Board has employed a specialist in this field of Christian<br />

recreation to direct recreation and leisure time at Ridgecrest and conduct<br />

tw e nW«L ° onfe £ ence , s wh ich would prepare others to do the same thing in<br />

SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD 323<br />

streamlined operation and the addition of many sections within the departmental<br />

organizations has achieved a much greater expansion than the increase in the<br />

number of departments would indicate.<br />

Perhaps a clearer way to get at it would be to say that approximately 361<br />

were on the pay roll of the Sunday School Board in 1934 and at the close of<br />

1952 this had increased to approximately 1,100. In both these figures the Book<br />

Store employees are included. This increase in the number of people necessary<br />

to carry the load of work of the Board illustrates the great growth of its<br />

ministries and of its organization.<br />

New Buildings in Nashville<br />

The new twelve-story Administration Building at Ninth Avenue North and<br />

Commerce Street is one of the most attractive and commanding buildings in<br />

the city of Nashville. The property for this building was acquired in 1939-1940<br />

and the foundation and first three floors were erected at that time. The ninestory<br />

central tower of the building was erected beginning in the fall of 1950<br />

and finished in the spring of 1953. Three of these nine floors are not finished<br />

for use at this time but are left for future growth.<br />

In 1950 an acreage was secured on the edge of the city some three miles from<br />

the downtown buildings. Upon this property has been erected a printing plant<br />

building consisting of a giant one-floor plant room containing approximately two<br />

and one half acres of floor space with an adjacent office wing adequate for the<br />

needs. The cost of this building will be amortized by rent paid by the Baird-<br />

Ward Printing Company which is our contract printers. Occupancy of this<br />

plant released the building formerly occupied at Tenth and Commerce downtown,<br />

known as the Commerce Street Building.<br />

A program of renovation, expansion, and adjustment is in process in the<br />

downtown buildings now. The Executive Building at 161 Eighth Avenue North<br />

is being renovated. The first floor will be dedicated to a modern book store and<br />

the remainder of this building is being modernized for office use. The Commerce<br />

Street Building formerly occupied by the Baird-Ward Printing Company is being<br />

renovated, modernized, and adapted for our greatly increased Merchandising<br />

and Periodical Shipping operations. At the present time, a portion of one floor<br />

is being rented to Stoddard's Inc., printers, and a portion of another floor to the<br />

Lowe Typesetting Company. These rentals bring in a sizeable income.<br />

Thus the Sunday School Board has in Nashville five large modern buildings—<br />

the Executive Building at 161 Eighth Avenue North consisting of five floors;<br />

the Shipping Building at Ninth Avenue North and Berryhill consisting of seven<br />

floors; joining this building on the south is the twelve-story Administration<br />

Building reaching down Ninth Avenue North to Commerce and adjoining the<br />

Commerce Street Building with its two and one half floors and large area; then<br />

out on the edge of the city is the Printing Building. In 1934 we had 160,966<br />

square footage in the buildings then owned and utilized. In the present five<br />

buildings, our square footage has mounted to 394,750 square feet of usable space,<br />

with three unfurnished floors that will provide an additional 22,938 square feet.<br />

Physical Equipment at Ridgecrest<br />

Ridgecrest as it stands today is wholly unlike what it was in 1934. The only<br />

major buildings now being used and which were there then are Pritchell Hail<br />

which is the main hotel unit, Rhododendron Hall which formerly was the dining<br />

hall and the auditorium, and a number of the older housing and cottage units.<br />

The major buildings which have been erected during Dr. Holcomb's administration<br />

include the Auditorium, the Auditorium Annex, Lakeview Housing<br />

unit, the complete new Dining Hall Building with the new and adequate kitchen<br />

and the conference rooms on the second floor. The Auditorium seating capacity<br />

is being enlarged from 2,500 to about 3,500 for 1953. New major and modern<br />

housing units include the new section of Springdale, Crestridge, and three other<br />

new units of about twenty-four rooms each. Three new staff housing units have<br />

been erected, providing for the majority of the staff which runs from 300 to 350<br />

each summer. The beautiful new Center Building has been erected which<br />

houses the book store, utility and refreshment center, barber shop and beauty<br />

shop, and other facilities.<br />

Then there has been the modernization of some fifteen to twenty lesser<br />

residence cottages, turning them from rather crude shacks into completely<br />

up-to-date units fully acceptable to all clientele. Much road paving has been


324 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

laid. Quite a great deal of additional property has been secured inc ijjfch g wouid<br />

than 100 acres in the Hemphill property and other properties wm<br />

probably total 100 acres more. The beautiful Mountainview Cemetery<br />

planned and developed. QA wvPT1 „«„<br />

At the Boys' Camp the situation is completely different from 19d4 wnen provisions<br />

were meager. Beautiful Spilman Lodge has been an achievemeni. oome<br />

of the old dilapidated cottages have been eliminated and an ade ^ ua ;„/"i„<br />

of new Camp cottages erected. Roads have been built, playgrounds ana equipment<br />

provided, and Ridgecrest Boys' Camp developed to where it;can aaequareiy<br />

take care of 150 boys during each of the two five-week camps in the summertime.<br />

Several sites for a Ridgecrest Girls' Camp have been considered and one<br />

tentatively selected. This project has the hearty approval of Ur. Holcomb<br />

for immediate development.<br />

The attendance for the season at Ridgecrest has grown marvelously—from<br />

around 5,000 in 1934 to 26,029 registrations in 1952. The program for the<br />

Assembly includes the presentation of all phases of our work under the direction<br />

of various Southern Baptist Convention boards and agencies. Ridgecrest and<br />

now also Glorieta constitute a tremendous force in building unity and fellowship<br />

among our people and furthering all the work of our denomination.<br />

Development at Glorieta<br />

The general growth of the Southern Baptist Convention required a second<br />

Convention-wide summer assembly. This significant denominational movement<br />

has been launched under the leadership of Dr. Holcomb. New Mexico Baptists<br />

secured and presented to the Southern Baptist Convention some 800 acres of<br />

land which was formerly a privately-owned ranch. The property is beautifully<br />

located at Glorieta Pass, some nineteen miles southeast of Santa Fe, on the<br />

Santa Fe Railroad and on a major highway. This gift from New Mexico Baptists<br />

was accepted by the Southern Baptist Convention and turned over to the<br />

Sunday School Board for development.<br />

In broad statements, the following has been accomplished: The Sunday School<br />

Board obtained some 500 additional acres of ground, giving us both sides of the<br />

highway for more than a mile. A master plan for development has been made.<br />

General utility installations include, at the Assembly's expense, provision for<br />

telephone service, a complete water system with a 500,000-gallon storage tank<br />

and adequate lines and pumps, a complete sewage disposal plant, a complete<br />

electrical installation for lights, an electrical shop, a carpenter shop, motor<br />

equipment, etc. Some three to four miles of roads have been built.<br />

Major buildings already erected include the first units of three main buildings<br />

: the Administration Building which is known as New Mexico Hall, the first<br />

unit of the spacious dining hall, and the first unit of a large auditorium. Housing<br />

units being completed for use in 1953 include Texas Hall, Oklahoma Hall,<br />

Hall of States, Cedar Lodge, and Spruce Lodge. These modern and beautiful<br />

housing units provide approximately 150 rooms to care for a maximum of 600<br />

guests. In addition, some ten or twelve cottages have been erected for guests<br />

by the Assembly, and quite a number of churches will have cottages built for<br />

1953 use. The temporary buildings used in 1952 as an auditorium and a dining<br />

hall have been converted for conference room and dormitory use. A girls'<br />

staff building will be ready for 1953 use.<br />

A greenhouse has been constructed and a Glorieta Gardens area projected<br />

which under expert supervision is proving to be a major attraction in that<br />

section of the "Land of Enchantment."<br />

Camping areas, a filling station, a commissarv a book store and other provisions<br />

Board. During the depression many of the state mission boards wanted to dispose<br />

of their interests and the Sunday School Board purchased them. Later<br />

the stores in the other states were acquired by the Sunday School Board, so<br />

that now the forty-four stores are completely owned by the Board.<br />

These stores offer a practical, cultural, and spiritual ministry to the churches<br />

and the people. They offer practical service to the churches in the furnishing of<br />

all church supplies. They are set to raise the general culture through the distribution<br />

of good books. They support and further every denominational program<br />

in the calendar from month to month. They are not stores in the commercial<br />

sense; they are as much denominational enterprises as colleges, children's<br />

homes, or hospitals. The tremendous growth of this phase of the Board's<br />

work during this eighteen-year period is a truly significant achievement. Requests<br />

are in hand for at least a dozen new book stores at the present time,<br />

and this expansion program is following the bent given to it during this present<br />

administration of the Board's life.<br />

Increase in Business Volume<br />

During this eighteen-year period the tremendous growth indicated in this<br />

brief report has produced a corresponding increase in the volume of the Board's<br />

business. The total income of the Board in 1934 was $1,684,843.42. In 1952,<br />

it exceeded $12,000,000. This more than 500 per cent increase tells a story both<br />

of inflation in costs and in necessary prices together with an amazing record of<br />

achievements. Margins are kept very reasonable. Really, the selling prices of<br />

the Sunday School Board, if they were cut to actual costs, would not make<br />

possible much reduction in expense for any particular church or person. But<br />

due to the volume of business with more than 28,000 churches and 7,000,000<br />

Baptists, plus numerous other churches and persons, the total income amounts<br />

to a great deal. All earnings are regarded as a sacred missionary trust to be<br />

used for the furtherance of the cause of Christ through our states and churches<br />

in the most effective way possible. The entire building program referred to<br />

above has been paid for as the buildings have been erected. There are no debts.<br />

Here indeed is evidence of the wonderful blessing of God in the accomplishment<br />

of all of this missionary work and the provisions for the carrying on of this<br />

ministry in the future, produced and paid for out of the earnings of materials<br />

marketed at prices well within the range of what would be necessary if these<br />

materials were secured from commercial sources. Wise executive business leadership<br />

during these eighteen years has been a very large factor through this<br />

eighteen-year period of efficiency and success.<br />

Denominational Co-operation<br />

Dr. Holcomb has so often said, "Our Board takes its place in the denominatio<br />

as a member of the family. We want always to co-operate and to carry our<br />

part of the load." It has always been the policy of the Sunday School Board<br />

to contribute in various ways to all the work of the churches and the denomination.<br />

While the Board has made direct contributions of money to specific objects,<br />

most of its available funds have been re-invested in the sources that<br />

have produced them. That is to say, these funds have been expended in direct<br />

work and in co-operation with the states in many ways in promoting the educational<br />

program in the churches. In 1934 the contributions made by the Board<br />

to denominational work amounted to $431,150.40. In 1952 this figure had increased<br />

to $1,584,663.93.<br />

In its buildings in Nashville the Sunday School Board provides and furnishes<br />

office space without cost to the Executive Committee of the Southern Baptist<br />

Convention, and the following agencies of the Convention: the Historical Commission,<br />

the Southern Baptist Foundation, the Social Service Commission, and<br />

the Southern Baptist Education Commission. This is a part of the denominational<br />

service of the Sunday School Board. Provisions for these agencies have<br />

all been offered and occupied during the tenure of Dr. Holcomb, and the space<br />

for the Executive Committee has been greatly enlarged.<br />

Spiritual Commitment<br />

With constant awareness of the spiritual aims and purposes of the Sunday<br />

School Board in every area and avenue of its work, Dr. Holcomb has held the<br />

torch high these eighteen years. His personal commitment to Christ has<br />

permeated down through the organizational personnel of the Board. We would<br />

pay tribute now to the many workers, known and unknown, who make up the


326 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

rank and file of the Board's employees, and who have caught the spirit of the<br />

Master through the leadership of our executive secretary.<br />

It is a gigantic task to handle the actual producing of all these periodicals,<br />

books, pamphlets, church supplies, and numberless other items essential to an<br />

this work. It is a monumental job to receive and process and fill and snip some<br />

sixty thousand orders each quarter, to produce and distribute some tour million<br />

books per year, to plan and produce countless items of merchandise each one<br />

of which has its place in the promotion of the spiritual aims of our work. Our<br />

forces do this work—all the fabulous volume of it—in the consciousness of its<br />

purpose of Bible evangelism and Christian training at home and around the globe.<br />

The Production Department workers nray for guidance to make the materials<br />

the best from the physical standpoint." The Merchandising Department and<br />

the Advertising Department work in the consciousness that the materials distributed<br />

have spiritual content and are aimed at achievement for Christ. The<br />

Accounting Department handles all orders and money as a sacred trust. All the<br />

Shipping sections are under the supervision of men who have a passion to get<br />

the materials out to the people and churches as needed—for Jesus' sake. The<br />

Book Store Department and the Book Store managers and forces labor with a<br />

sense of mission in promulgating the gospel. And yes, the whole Maintenance<br />

group, who care for the buildings, join all the other workers in feeling the high<br />

privilege of serving God and serving mankind through the Sunday School Board.<br />

We hail ourselves happy to have had Dr. T. L. Holcomb as our chief. We<br />

count him the gift of God for these years and for this work.


SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD 327<br />

THIRTY-FIFTH <strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT<br />

RELIEF AND ANNUITY BOARD<br />

WALTER R. ALEXANDER, Executive Secretary<br />

Introduction<br />

On Thursday morning, May 16, 1918, the Southern Baptist Convention,<br />

assembled in Hot Springs, Arkansas, brought into being the Board of Ministerial<br />

Relief and Annuities, to be located in Dallas, Texas. That was thirty-five years<br />

ago with this meeting of the Southern Baptist Convention.<br />

Thirty-five years is not a long time in the life of an institution. It is long<br />

enough, however, for that institution to have written some history for the present<br />

generation to interpret and evaluate. Such interpretation, such evaluation, makes<br />

it possible for that generation to venture certain predictions regarding the untrodden<br />

future. Therefore, if we pause briefly today to review the yesteryears,<br />

it will not be time lost or time wasted. Tomorrow's progress may be greatly<br />

enhanced by such a retrospect.<br />

Thirty-five years -is a long time in the life of an individual. Not that they<br />

seem so long in passing, for they are "but as yesterday when past, and as a<br />

watch in the night." Nevertheless, thirty-five years—three decades plus five—is<br />

half the allotted span of threescore years plus ten. It is not strange, therefore,<br />

when we find that the worthies of yesterday, who planned, who sponsored, who<br />

launched the Relief and Annuity Board thirty-five years ago this spring; have,<br />

for the most part, passed beyond the veil.<br />

Of the twelve men appointed by the 1917 New Orleans convention as a commission<br />

"to consider the matter of ministerial*" relief with a view to presenting<br />

to the convention a scheme or method under which the same should be conducted,"<br />

few remain.<br />

Of the five citizens of Texas who subscribed to the original charter, appending<br />

their names on the thirty-first of July, 1918, not one remains today.<br />

Of the eighteen state members of the Relief and Annuity Board appointed<br />

by the founding convention in Hot Springs, May, 1918, to our knowledge only<br />

one is living—Dr. John Jeter Hurt, now retired, then representing North Carolina.<br />

Of the eighteen local members appointed at the same time, only two remain<br />

with us—Dr. E. C. Routh, and our honored president, Dr. Wallace Bassett.<br />

Such the inevitable toll of thirty-five years!<br />

I pursue this line of thought a little further. In 1943, Dr. Watts, my predecessor,<br />

prepared and published our silver anniversary brochure. That was but<br />

ten years ago, yet those ten years have taken from the scene some of the most<br />

devoted friends of this Board. We call to mind Dr. Lee R. Scarborough, president<br />

of this Board for several years; Dr. George W. Truett, chairman of its executive<br />

committee twenty-four years; Robert H. Coleman, its recording secretary from<br />

the very beginning; and Dr. T. J. Watts himself, executive secretary of the Board<br />

two decades.<br />

In 1943, we had eighteen local board members—only six of them remain on<br />

the Board today. In 1943, we had eighteen state board members—not one of the<br />

eighteen is on our Board today. In 1943, we had twenty state secretaries, through<br />

whose fine co-operation much of our work must ever be accomplished—today,<br />

only six of that twenty remain in office. In 1943, we had nineteen editors of<br />

Baptist papers serving our Board to a marked degree—today, only six of that<br />

nineteen still occupy editors' chairs.<br />

These facts remind us that the welfare of the Relief and Annuity Board is<br />

no longer in the hands of those who conceived it; then, having brought it forth,<br />

shaped its early years. Its present lies in our hands now. Its destiny is a trust<br />

committed to our keeping. Are we holding true to the course originally set by<br />

those who conceived a glorious dream; then, making their dreams come true,<br />

brought reality into being? Are we sufficient to the challenge of the future?<br />

Such queries call for a fresh committal to a fuller consecration. Our task is no<br />

light one. There is nothing trivial in our trust. Let us then examine ourselves<br />

upon this anniversary occasion. Let us renew our covenant with Him Whose we<br />

are and Whom we serve, in Whose spirit we perform our ministry, and to Whose<br />

ultimate glory we discharge the daily task.


328 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

I. The Original Intent<br />

What was the course originally set by the founders of our Board? The<br />

records reveal very clearly that the intent of those who foundedI tne nenei.ana<br />

Annuity Board was to provide a reasonable degree of protection tor the; preacners<br />

of the gospel in event of the untoward vicissitudes of lite, iwo iacts were<br />

recognized with regard to the economic status of the preacher. *„„„*.-<br />

One was that ministers of the gospel are men of one calling. To function<br />

satisfactorily in the discharge of their God-given tasks, little opportunity, it any,<br />

is offered them to increase their income in secular pursuits. Yet salaries have<br />

always been small, allowing very little opportunity for such to save through<br />

active years of life, as many in other professions have, for old age or for the<br />

purchase of such protection as others enjoy along the way through life insurance<br />

On the other hand, preachers are subject to the same vicissitudes of life to<br />

which all flesh is heir. Some meet untimely death, leaving widows and minor<br />

children. Some experience physical incapacity, facing years of disability without<br />

income. Others live to a ripe old age, far beyond the years of earning capacity,<br />

with nothing provided to meet the necessities of life in those sunset years.<br />

Thus, it was in the main to protect the preacher and members of his family<br />

against the untoward vicissitudes of life that the Relief and Annuity Board was<br />

established. We believe we can truthfully say the Board has stayed on the main<br />

line these thirty-five years. Ours is still a twofold ministry: one of financial aid<br />

to those currently in need, and one that looks, through the creation of retirement<br />

annuities, toward an old age no longer indigent and penniless.<br />

II. Means to the End<br />

The growth of the Board through these years has been a process of evolution,<br />

always endeavoring to achieve the end sought by the founding fathers. Thus, the<br />

ministry has expanded and the plans have multiplied. A review of them, however,<br />

will reveal that the ultimate purpose behind each one was the provision of<br />

the maximum protection possible.<br />

The relief department remains much as it was through all the years, modestly<br />

endowed, moderately well-supported by income from the Co-operative Program<br />

and by special gifts. The individual grants have never been large, have never<br />

been, and are not now, sufficient, although the number on the roll continues to<br />

increase. The intent of the relief department has ever been maximum protection<br />

possible, and to this end that department has functioned and still functions today.<br />

The blessings of its ministry, we cannot fully record; they are far beyond anything<br />

mere dollars-and-cents statistics can reveal.<br />

Running parallel to the relief department, when the Board was instituted,<br />

was the single retirement plan, known today as the (Old) Annuity Fund, to<br />

distinguish it from those of more recent years. It endeavored to protect the<br />

preacher and his family against possible financial distress. So, it provided an<br />

age annuity payable to those who had reached age sixty-eight, even though not<br />

retired, thus supplementing old-age income. It provided a disability annuity,<br />

payable at any age the preacher might become disabled, in the modest sum of<br />

$500 a year. It provided for his widow and minor children, in event of his untimely<br />

death, to the extent of $300 a year. Only 1,935 individuals joined the plan<br />

in the twelve years it was open to membership; but scores of those who did not<br />

are as warm in their praise of it today, regretting now their lack of foresight,<br />

as are the annuitants who receive their monthly checks.<br />

RELIEF AND ANNUITY BOARD 329<br />

Looking toward the preacher's retirement, the Special Deferred Annuity Plan<br />

was inaugurated. Here, the better-paid preacher may create for himself an age<br />

annuity supplemental to the one he is due to receive under the Ministers Retirement<br />

Plan.<br />

With a view to a comfortable retirement period, the Savings Annuity Plan<br />

was developed, as was also the Special Annuity Plan, through which plans also<br />

the preacher who will can build for himself something in addition to that provided<br />

through the Ministers Retirement Plan. The Board has ever had, and still has,<br />

protection against the exigencies of old age in mind, seeking thus to provide a<br />

comfortable period of retirement.<br />

But what if the preacher does not enjoy good health until retirement age, and<br />

loses his earning capacity because of physical disability? As did the (Old)<br />

Annuity Plan, so the Ministers Retirement Plan offers an annuity of $500 a year.<br />

Not sufficient, of course, to meet all the needs of life, but liberal when compared<br />

with the costs of the plan. This amount, though small, is 3 per cent interest on<br />

$16,000; or interest on $12,500 at 4 per cent; or interest on $10,000, if one is so<br />

fortunate to secure the liberal rate of 5 per cent.<br />

But what if the preacher does not live to retire, but dies somewhere along<br />

life's path of service? Even then, there is some protection for the widow and the<br />

orphan. At least the widow receives all her husband has paid into the plan, plus<br />

3 per cent interest earned thereon.<br />

Through the years, other plans to provide protection for other denominational<br />

workers have been inaugurated.<br />

The Foreign Mission Board Pension Plan dates from 1934. It covered, and<br />

covers today, lay workers as well as ordained.<br />

The Institutional Employees Pension Plan for orphanage staffs dates from<br />

January 1, 1936. It covers some few ordained men, but offers protection mainly<br />

to lay workers, women as well as men.<br />

The Age Security Plan, dated January 1, 1936, was intended primarily for<br />

the lay workers of our churches, and was offered to them one year before Federal<br />

Social Security was offered to the American public.<br />

The Baptist Boards Employees Retirement Plan throws its protective care<br />

about both ordained and unordained employees of our Boards, colleges, hospitals,<br />

seminaries, Baptist papers, Brotherhood of the South, Woman's Missionary Union<br />

of the South, embracing within its folds hundreds of secretaries, stenographers,<br />

and other workers, as well as executives and administrative heads. It dates from<br />

July 1, 1937.<br />

The Educational Institutions Employees Retirement Plan, July 1, 1937, offers<br />

protection, in event of the same vicissitudes that life may encounter, to the<br />

members of the faculties of many of our schools and colleges.<br />

Because it was becoming painfully apparent to all that the protection provided<br />

the worker's widow and orphaned children was wholly inadequate, the year 1945<br />

saw the Widows Supplemental Annuity Plan offered as supplemental protection.<br />

That marked a most progressive step forward. While thousands have never<br />

availed themselves of the protection it offers, other thousands have; and many<br />

widows, both of Baptist preachers and of lay workers in our denominational life,<br />

are now blessed by a monthly income far beyond such protection as was formerly<br />

offered under the basic plans.<br />

Thus, the original intent has been strictly adhered to down the years. Protection<br />

for the preacher and his family has ever been the objective, but more<br />

recently that objective has been broadened in its scope and coverage to include<br />

protective care for every individual who holds a salaried relationship to our<br />

beloved denomination, regardless of the person's age, sex, salary, type of service<br />

being rendered—even without regard to race or color of skin. As we come to<br />

the end of this thirty-fifth year and look back, we believe we can modestly claim<br />

that the Relief and Annuity Board has been true to the intent of its founding<br />

fathers, and, certainly to this extent at least, has kept faith with the denomination<br />

and with the thousands of workers who, through the years, have come to participate<br />

in these protective plans.<br />

III. Keeping Our Promises<br />

It is one thing for our Board to promise the protection written into the cer<br />

icates of our several plans. It is another matter, and far more important, that<br />

every with in its all such thirty-five who promise put years their be faithfully trust of history. in us kept. requires Never Never shall much.<br />

has it the do so! Board But failed keeping an individual the faith


330 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

For instance, there must be perennial promotion. Into our retirement plans<br />

there must be brought the new stream of ministerial life flowing f 5*]^^ f^e<br />

and seminaries each passing year. Only by so doing can we e<br />

protection the Board offers. But it is just as true that only by so doing do we<br />

protect the plans for the future. That the Board has ever been mmdi^ol the<br />

(all states), and 15,565 Baptist churches have beert enlisted as contributors t<br />

said plan. In all the plans of the Board, there have been issued, to December 31,<br />

1952, certificates totaling 33,670; and 16,163 employer groups includmg par.<br />

ticipating churches mentioned above, have been enlisted in all tne pians.<br />

Promotion, however successful it may be, without conservation, is not enough.<br />

The great Baptist commoner, Dr. Gambrell, was known to say on occasions,<br />

characterizing Southern Baptist people, that they were strong on evangelism but<br />

weak on enlistment. I quote him exactly: "Our grab is greater than our grip.<br />

Every pastor knows, from painful experience, exactly what Dr. Gambrell had<br />

in mind, and how justified his criticism. So our Board is painfully aware of the<br />

fact that not all Baptist preachers who have entered the Ministers Retirement<br />

Plan remain, today, active members, paying their dues with regularity. It was<br />

with considerable satisfaction, therefore, and great anticipation, that we welcomed<br />

Dr. R. Alton Reed, coming to head our newly created department of public relations.<br />

Among his many lines of endeavor will be that of conservation, along with<br />

promotion.<br />

There must also be adequate safeguarding of all funds received by the Board,<br />

together with the interest earned thereon, if we would keep the faith. We are<br />

grateful to God that our investment department, so ably headed by Mr. Orville<br />

Groner these many years, has consistently made such an outstanding record. The<br />

task of our treasurer and his finance committee continues to grow in magnitude.<br />

It is ever incumbent upon them to achieve the largest rate of interest return<br />

on all invested funds that can be consistent with safety of principal. Without<br />

such return, the annuities promised could never be paid, for a large percentage<br />

of the funds necessary to provide a given annuity is created by the investment<br />

earnings through the years. We are proud to note here that our investment<br />

advisor, United States Trust Company of New York, continues to compliment our<br />

investment department, both on its portfolio of securities held and on the investment<br />

policies by which it operates.<br />

Again, if we keep faith through the years, there must be a steady increase<br />

in the total of our endowment funds. There has been marked improvement in this<br />

respect the last few years, due in part to the accomplishments of our investment<br />

department, but mainly due to the fact the Board, along with other Southwide<br />

agencies, is sharing in the distribution of the capital-funds portion of distributable<br />

Co-operative Program receipts. Dr. Watts, in his last report (Miami Convention,<br />

1946), referred to the fact our Board had been placed in the capital funds<br />

picture for three millions of dollars. Then he added this most significant paragraph:<br />

"The Relief and Annuity Board will use this fund to stabilize all of its<br />

work, to make sure full interest credits to its several reserve funds, to help in<br />

meeting its cost of administration, and to enable it to meet economic conditions<br />

and situations which cannot now be accurately forecast."<br />

When Dr. Watts penned these words, we had a general contingency reserve<br />

fund of only $232,000, a little over 2 per cent of the total assets of the Board.<br />

Today we have nearly a million dollars in our contingency reserve fund, and a<br />

million and a half dollars more in our capital reserve fund—nearly two and a<br />

half million dollars in all, representing 9-1/3 per cent of all our assets. This<br />

upward trend is most gratifying. We believe it will continue. Nearly a million<br />

and a quarter of the three million promised is yet to come to us through the<br />

Nashville office in the next few years. It is our conviction also that, when these<br />

original commitments have been fully kept, our Board will remain in the overall<br />

picture for a reasonable share of capital funds through future years.<br />

In this connection, this also remains to be said. The faithful seed-sowing of<br />

Dr. Jones and those associated with him, as they seek to bring to us legacies and<br />

gifts from our Baptist people, will be producing tangible and evident results<br />

before the passing of many more years. At this task, we must continue to work<br />

increasing our reserve funds as we enlist the sympathetic concern and Th 1<br />

response of many who would honor the Lord in a practical and financial<br />

Finally, the Board's ability to keep faith through the years calls for ev<br />

in actuarial counsel, and the wisest denominational statesmanship on tho !<br />

Lne Part of


RELIEF AND ANNUITY BOARD<br />

the officers of the Board as they determine its administrative policies. Be assured<br />

your actuary and your executive secretary have ever been, and are today, in<br />

perfect accord. The services of George A. Huggins these thirty-five years have<br />

been all our denomination could possibly ask. As he is the only individual closely<br />

connected with the life and work of our Board who is not a member of our Baptist<br />

family, we would add this further word of sincere appreciation of him on the<br />

occasion of this anniversary. Southern Baptists can never pay Dr. Huggins for<br />

all he has done to make possible, and then to make the more secure, the protection<br />

our plans offer our denominational workers.<br />

IV. Proposal to Increase Protection<br />

We come finally, then, to consider a matter that has been uppermost in our<br />

minds for the past several years, and upon which I wrote at length in my last two<br />

reports. I speak of liberalizing certain of our retirement plans, in view of the<br />

inflationary trends in our national economy.<br />

What changes are to be desired? What liberalization can we safely make?<br />

What greater benefits safely promise? What attitude should the present administration<br />

assume in this matter?<br />

Bringing pressure to bear upon us, on the one side, is the rising clamor from<br />

our constituency for increased benefits. We readily admit the desirability of<br />

certain things they would like to see done. We also readily admit what many<br />

of our own people do not know, that the pension boards of a number of other<br />

denominations have heeded similar requests made of them in recent years, and<br />

have greatly increased benefits offered.<br />

On the other hand, however, and bringing pressure to bear upon us from that<br />

side, is the fact that Southern Baptists launched a gigantic undertaking, and<br />

without any capital funds, when they launched the Relief and Annuity Board.<br />

Other denominations did not do this. In several instances, they went afield and<br />

raised several million dollars before they established their pension boards in<br />

business. We know also that the basic retirement plans of some of these boards<br />

were never as liberal, as to the benefits promised in relation to dues paid, as is<br />

the Ministers Retirement Plan of Southern Baptists. We know also that our<br />

plans are not fully funded, while in many cases theirs are.<br />

For these and other reasons, we have persisted in the position we have taken,<br />

committing ourselves to no liberalization whatsoever, unless the cost of any<br />

additional benefits as might be promised is fully met by increased contributions,<br />

and with some surplus of income that could be used toward the strengthening<br />

of the plan thus being liberalized.<br />

At some points, we have liberalized the Baptist Boards Employees Retirement<br />

Plan; but, by reason of the increased contributions (the employers now contributing<br />

5 per cent of the salary basis rather than the former 3 per cent), we<br />

believe the liberalization is paid for, and there should be a surplus toward<br />

strengthening the plan. The same thing has been true with regard to the<br />

Institutional Employees Pension Plan this past year. What about our major<br />

plan, the retirement plan for our ministers, and the supplemental plan that<br />

provides an annuity for the minister's widow?<br />

This past year, the Board has had an actuarial study made to determine the<br />

cost of several liberalizations in the Ministers Retirement Plan, first requested<br />

by the committee on retirement matters in South Carolina. These were certain<br />

matters deemed by our Board to be the most practical, and in keeping with<br />

requests that came from many other sources throughout the states. As a result of<br />

the study made, we may be facing now the most important item of new business to<br />

confront our Board in many years. We recently made a definite proposal to the<br />

South Carolina committee, which they enthusiastically approved. We laid the<br />

same proposal before the state secretaries in their annual gathering, Charleston,<br />

South Carolina, February 10, and all present expressed their approval. As a<br />

result, a special committee was appointed of the state secretaries to confer with<br />

the officers of this Board regarding many details that must be worked out, this<br />

conference scheduled for April 7 in Memphis. It is quite possible that a revision<br />

of the Ministers Retirement Plan and the Widows Supplemental Annuity Plan,<br />

offering greater benefits and greatly desired liberalization at some points, will<br />

be acted upon by the state boards m the immediate future, and the greatly enlarged<br />

and liberalized plan be put into effect within the next year or two in the<br />

several states.<br />

331


332 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

V. Details of Proposed Liberalization<br />

The proposals under consideration are as follows. After an a^eed-upon date<br />

in the near future, no new members would be received into either the Ministers<br />

Retirement Plan or the Widows Supplemental Annuity Plan as these plans exist<br />

today. All present members would be given the option of continuing on the same<br />

participation basis as heretofore, or of transferring to the liberalized plan.<br />

At the present, the participation basis has been 3 per cent of salary (maximum<br />

$4,000) paid as dues by the preacher member, 3 per cent of salary contributed<br />

by his church or churches, and 2 per cent added by the state board—tor all those<br />

in the Ministers Retirement Plan only. For those in the supplemental plan as<br />

well as the basic plan, the participation basis has been 4%-per-cent preacher<br />

dues, 3-per-cent church contributions, 3y2-per-cent denominational subsidy.<br />

After the agreed-upon date for the inauguration of the liberalized plan, the<br />

participation basis for all transferors and for all new members thereafter would<br />

be 5%-5%-5% automatically. The two plans would no longer be sold separately,<br />

but in one package, offering the following benefits in addition to all benefits<br />

presently enjoyed under both plans:<br />

1. The present contractual disability annuity of $500 (maximum) would become<br />

a contractual disability annuity of $900 (maximum), or half the salary,<br />

if that amount is a lesser figure.<br />

2. If the disability annuity is entered upon after the member has attained his<br />

sixtieth birthday, the annuitant would be given a commuted age annuity rather<br />

than the disability annuity.<br />

3. Any member of the plan would be premitted to retire at age sixty, or any<br />

time thereafter, on a commuted annuity—the annuity he would have received at<br />

age sixty-five commuted to the age at which he actually retires.<br />

4. Any member retiring at age sixty-five or thereafter would no longer be<br />

required to accept a reduced age annuity in order to protect his wife in event she<br />

survives him, but would receive his full annuity, the same degree of protection he<br />

had created for her by the time of his retirement continuing automatically, and<br />

at no further cost, to the end of her life, unless she remarries.<br />

The maximum salary under the new participation basis (5%-5%-5%) would<br />

remain $4,000. Thus, the increased cost to the preacher member who is now paying<br />

on that figure in the Ministers Retirement Plan and the Widows Supplemental<br />

Annuity Plan would be only one-half of 1 per cent of $4,000, or $20 a year.<br />

Out of state funds would come another IY2 per cent of $4,000, or $60 a year,<br />

to the benefit of that member already participating in both plans.<br />

The local church would be asked to contribute 5 per cent-rather than 3 per cent<br />

as at present, or $80 a year more where the pastor's salary is $4,000 or above.<br />

In other denominations, the local churches pay a larger percentage now than our<br />

Southern Baptist churches contribute. It must be remembered our churches are<br />

paying all they have been asked to pay. Our conviction is they will readily increase<br />

their contributions, once they understand the vital importance of doing so.<br />

It will be seen at a glance that the benefits accruing to the preacher and his<br />

family are greatly increased, yet the preacher will be paying only one-eighth of<br />

the increased cost, his church one-half, and the state board three-eighths.<br />

Where the member was a member of the basic plan only, and not of the<br />

Widows Plan, he becomes automatically a member of both, and the cost to all<br />

three parties correspondingly increased.<br />

If such liberalizations are authorized and go into effect, we shall be offering<br />

protection against the untoward vicissitudes of life far beyond any protection<br />

offered thus far, and far, far beyond anything dreamed of even ten years ago.<br />

Such a program must be approved by each state board before it can be offered<br />

to the preachers of that state. At least two-thirds of the present members of the<br />

Ministers Retirement Plan must then express their readiness to transfer and<br />

their churches agree to increase contributions, before the - liberalized nlan can<br />

begin to operate in any given state. This will require wide dissemination of<br />

information, promotion, and enlistment. This Board shall need the servirp of<br />

state secretaries, our Baptist papers, our board members in the various


RELIEF AND ANNUITY BOARD 333<br />

Conclusion<br />

Our Board is to appear on the program of the Southern Baptist Convention,<br />

Thursday morning, May 7, with thirty minutes of time allotted to us. This is not<br />

the full hour we asked for, but it is more time than we have had in recent years,<br />

and appears to be a choice spot on the program. There will not be time for us<br />

to review the history of this movement as we have tried to do herein, except to<br />

present it in the written report. Our president, Dr. Bassett, will bring the<br />

anniversary message on that occasion.<br />

Let us re-affirm our faith in the magnitude of our task, in the important place<br />

it holds in the life of our denomination, and in the future, with all of its problems,<br />

that, for the servants of Jesus Christ, become challenging opportunities.

RELIEF AND ANNUITY BOARD 335<br />

REPORT OF THE RELIEF DEPARTMENT<br />

ROBERT S. JONES, Associate Secretary<br />

The low purchasing power of the dollar and the high cost of living were reflected<br />

m the work of the relief department during 1952, in that more requests for<br />

increases and emergency grants were received than in any past year.<br />

These were granted upon the request of the state secretaries where it seemed<br />

they were necessary to prevent suffering. There were 47 increases granted, and<br />

44 emergency checks issued.<br />

There were 146 names added to the roll and 119 names removed because of<br />

death. The number on the relief roll as of December 31, 1952, was 1,475 an<br />

increase of 27 over the preceding year.<br />

The total income for 1952, was $296,984.24, and total expenditures amounted<br />

to $298,558.14. This left a deficit of $1,573.90. The amounts received from the<br />

Cooperative Program and designated gifts amounted to only $277,068.74. Added<br />

to this was $19,915.50 as interest earnings on relief reserves. More was spent<br />

in twelve states than was received for relief from those states. In most of the<br />

states the deficit was very small.<br />

A determined effort is being made by the state secretaries in those states where<br />

we have deficits in the relief account, to provide sufficient funds to meet the needs<br />

in those states. In the states where a definite date has been set for the Fellowship<br />

Offering, ample funds have been provided to meet the relief needs in those states.<br />

A consistent effort is being made to have a date set for this offering in every state.<br />

For the first time, Kentucky and Tennessee have set dates for the offering this<br />

year.<br />

The relief department and the state secretaries in the several states have a<br />

deep concern over the potential future load of the relief department. Much thought<br />

has been given to find ways to lighten this future load of the department. Certain<br />

steps have been taken toward this end.<br />

Careful Screening of Applicants<br />

Greater care will be taken in the future by the state secretaries, the relief<br />

committees in the several states, and the Relief and Annuity Board, to see that<br />

only those are placed on the relief roll whose service record justified such action.<br />

The state secretaries agree with the relief committee that only those who have<br />

rendered creditable service, should be placed on the roll.<br />

Resolution of Relief Department<br />

The resolution which was presented by the Executive Committee, and unanimously<br />

approved in its October 15 meeting, was welcomed and approved by all<br />

the state secretaries throughout the Southern Baptist Convention. Many of them<br />

said that it was a long time overdue. The Relief and Annuity Board gave a<br />

breakfast for the state secretaries in Nashville in December, in connection with<br />

the meeting of the Executive Committee, at which time this resolution was discussed<br />

at length. There were twenty state secretaries present for this breakfast.<br />

They all expressed their approval of the resolution requiring that a pastor be<br />

a member of the Ministers Retirement Plan before he would be eligible for<br />

assistance from the relief department.<br />

In this discussion it was learned that five states, in their annual meetings, had<br />

taken action approving the resolution of the relief committee, and had set the<br />

deadline of June 30, for entrance into the Plan. After discussing a deadline that<br />

would be agreeable to all the state secretaries present, they accepted our suggestion<br />

that pastors be given until December 31, 1953, to join the Ministers<br />

Retirement Plan. After that date, any pastor, lacking two or more years of<br />

reaching retirement age, who fails to join the Plan, will not be considered eligible<br />

for assistance from the relief funds. An effort will be made in the several states<br />

during October, November, and December, to enrol all unenlisted pastors in the<br />

Ministers Retirement Plan. This united effort on the part of the Relief and<br />

Annuity Board and the state secretaries should result in many hundreds of<br />

applications for entrance into the Ministers Retirement Plan. This should materially<br />

affect the future load of the department.


336 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Penalty Waived Under Widows Supplemental Annuity Plan<br />

More than 200 pastors throughout our Southern Convention have died sinc<br />

the Widows Supplemental Annuity Plan was inaugurated who were not members<br />

of the Widows Plan. Scores of those widows are now on °? T a I*±.«ltS<br />

December, we requested Mr. Higgins, our actuary, to agree to hit the penalty<br />

for delayed participation under the Widows Supplemental Annuity rian lor a<br />

period of three months from the date of the inauguration ot the plan. mr. nuggins<br />

consented to the lifting of this penalty. ., . , . ^ „„„„„<br />

In the twelve states that entered the Plan January 1, an intensive program<br />

of enlistment for the Widows Plan is being conducted and will be continued until<br />

March 31. A similar campaign will be followed from July 1 to September 30, for<br />

the ten states where the Plan was inaugurated on July 1.<br />

In several of the states, the plan was six years old on December 31, and six<br />

twenty-fifths of the benefit was gone. This action, on the part of our actuary, was<br />

gratefully received in all the states and much publicity has been given from the<br />

various state offices and from the Relief and Annuity Board, with gratifying<br />

results. The results seen thus far, lead us to believe that the number of members<br />

in this plan will be doubled in several of the states. Some of the state secretaries<br />

have said that this was one of the most important actions taken by the Relief and<br />

Annuity Board in recent years. It is evident that this will lighten the future load<br />

of the relief department.<br />

It is gratifying to see the determination on the part of the state secretaries<br />

that the relief needs be met in each state.<br />

In nine states, the disability annuities, are being supplemented in the amount<br />

of $400.00 per year from relief funds. This should be considered a must on the<br />

part of the other states as it is one of the most needed things in our denominational<br />

life.<br />

An examination of the accompanying table, showing receipts and disbursements<br />

for 1952, will show that in twelve states, more was spent for relief than those<br />

states gave. We pray that this will not be true in 1953, and it will not be if the<br />

churches are given an opportunity to express their love and appreciation for those<br />

who labored so sacrificially in the early years of our denomination.<br />

To abandon these old preachers and widows would be unpardonable; to assist<br />

them in their eventide is our blessed privilege.<br />

RELIEF AND ANNUITY BOARD 337<br />

REPORT OF TREASURER FOR THE YEAR 1952<br />

ORVILLE GRONER, Treasurer<br />

The books of the Relief and Annuity Board of the Southern Baptist Convention<br />

were audited as of December 31, 1952, by Darcy R. Bonner, Certified Public<br />

Accountant, and a copy of the detailed audit has been forwarded to the Executive<br />

Committee of the Southern Baptist Convention.<br />

I am submitting the following reports in the order named:<br />

Balance Sheet, Income and Expenditures, Receipts from States, List of<br />

Classified Investments.<br />

DARCY R. BONNER<br />

CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT<br />

Dallas 1, Texas<br />

CERTIFICATE<br />

We have examined the Balance Sheets of the Relief and Annuity Board of the Southern Baptist<br />

Convention as of December 31, 1952 and December 31, 1951 and the related statements of Income<br />

and Expenditures for the years then ended. Our examination was made in accordance with generally<br />

accepted auditing standards, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and such<br />

other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances, except the Assets are<br />

shown inthe Balance Sheet at book values which do not include the market profit on securities and<br />

accrued interest at the dates named, and Reserves under the various plans are shown at their<br />

book balances.<br />

In our opinion, subject to the statement shown above, the accompanying Balance Sheets and<br />

statements of Income and Expenditures present fairly the financial position of the Relief and<br />

Annuity Board at December 31, 1952 and December 31, 1951, and the results of its operations for<br />

the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a<br />

basis consistent with that of the prior years.<br />

F. TOWNLEY LORD, President<br />

ARNOLD T. OHRN, General Secretary<br />

BAPTIST WORLD ALLIANCE 341<br />

SECTION III<br />

^fndtitutionA<br />

BAPTIST WORLD ALLIANCE<br />

The Alliance is the only organizational connecting link between more than<br />

eighteen million Baptists scattered around the world. Following closely in the<br />

tradition of such past leaders as E. Y. Mullins of Louisville, George W. Truett<br />

of Dallas, J. H. Rushbrooke of London, and C. Oscar Johnson of St. Louis, its<br />

present leadership, headed by the president, F. Townley Lord, London, have attempted<br />

"to show the essential oneness of Baptist people in the Lord Jesus<br />

Christ, to impart inspiration to the brotherhood, and to promote the spirit of<br />

fellowship, service and co-operation."<br />

The former headquarters of the Alliance in London, England, serves as the<br />

office of the associate secretary, Walter 0. Lewis, while the general secretary,<br />

Arnold T. Ohrn, has his office at our present headquarters in Washington, D. C.<br />

The youth secretary, Joel Sorenson, has up until now resided in Stockholm,<br />

Sweden.<br />

The Executive Committee, which usually meets once a year, held its 1952<br />

meeting at Tollose, De*nmark, August 4-8. Besides 26 members and 21 duly<br />

appointed proxies, 23 specially invited consultants, mostly from the European<br />

Continent, took part in the four day conference. The work in discussion groups<br />

was fruitful. Problems connected with relief work, the cause of religious liberty,<br />

and co-operation in the European field, were very much to the fore.<br />

The Tollose meeting was preceded by the first Assembly of the Baptist<br />

Federation of Europe, an organization which is a fruit of a similar Baptist World<br />

Alliance Conference held in London in 1943.<br />

A considerable amount of traveling was done in 1952. Thus, the President<br />

visited Baptist centers and missions throughout Latin America. The General<br />

Secretary spent several months in a tour of Australia, New Zealand, Malaya,<br />

Ceylon, India, and Pakistan. The Associate Secretary made numerous trips<br />

on the European Continent, particularly in connection with problems of relief.<br />

The Youth Secretary led an international Baptist Student Conference at<br />

Ruschlikon, traveled extensively in Europe, and visited Rio de Janeiro and other<br />

South American centers in the interests of the Fourth Baptist Youth World<br />

Conference to be held July 15-22, 1953.<br />

This visitation work has proved to be of great importance. Contacts with<br />

the great Baptist world outside mean more than is often realized to our numerically<br />

and economically weak Baptist groups, scattered, isolated, and some times<br />

oppressed.<br />

Some other aspects of our Alliance work must be mentioned.<br />

The Relief Committee, chaired by R. Paul Caudill of Memphis, Tennessee,<br />

has continued its work in 1952, though on a diminishing scale, owing to lack<br />

of funds. The main emphasis has been on resettlement of refugees, a work in<br />

the main directed by our Latvian-American leader A. Klaupiks, working from<br />

the Washington headquarters of the Alliance. Much has also been done by the<br />

Swedish-American, Kenneth Norquist, whose office is in Stuttgart, Germany,<br />

and the German-Canadian, W. Sturhahn, working from Winnipeg. Mr. K.<br />

Norquist has devoted a great deal of his time to the construction of chapels for


342 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Baptist churches of refugees, co-ordinating the work in this field of various<br />

Baptist organizations. „<br />

Though the Alliance has had an important part in the resettlement ot (up<br />

until now) more than 6,200 migration cases, covering about 15,000 individuals,<br />

the number of refugees, expellees, and escapees is, unhappily, growing all the<br />

time. Whether or not the Alliance shall continue its resettlement department<br />

depends entirely upon what support is given to this co-operative effort from the<br />

larger Baptist conventions.<br />

Due largely to the continued exertions of W. O. Lewis, the work on the Old<br />

People's Home, near Munich, for a number of helpless Baptist Displaced Persons,<br />

has been brought near to its conclusion.<br />

The energetic work of the Baptist World Alliance Women's Committee,<br />

under the chairmanship of Mrs. George R. Martin, of Norfolk, Virginia, has<br />

resulted in the organization of a Baptist Women's Federation for Australasia,<br />

in addition to the ones recently organized in Europe and in North America.<br />

The Baptist World Alliance Youth Committee, chaired by Robert S. Denny of<br />

Nashville, Tennessee, has been concentrating its efforts on preparations for the<br />

approaching World Conference at Rio de Janeiro, the great Baptist international<br />

event of 1953.<br />

The writer has not mentioned in this brief review all the areas where the<br />

Alliance has sought to be of help. We are also aware of other fields of service<br />

to the brotherhood into which we have scarcely ventured as yet, realizing that<br />

we must live within our means.<br />

The Baptist World Alliance is not a money-collecting agency. Whatever it<br />

has been able to accomplish is due to the voluntary and loyal support, financially<br />

and otherwise, of the constituting bodies. Those of us who are privileged to<br />

serve our worldwide fellowship are deeply conscious of our gratitude to all who<br />

helped us with their interest, their substance, and their prayers.


AMERICAN BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY 343<br />

<strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT<br />

THE COMMISSION ON THE AMERICAN BAPTIST<br />

THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY<br />

L. S. SEDBERRY, Executive Secretary<br />

Two Deaths in Seminary Family<br />

During the past year two deaths have occurred in the Seminary family. Mr.<br />

Sherman Hunt, engineer and superintendent of buildings and grounds, passed<br />

away April 15, 1952. His contribution to the American Seminary was outstanding<br />

and greatly appreciated.<br />

Dr. E. P. Alldredge died February 22, 1953. He retired from the position of<br />

Secretary of the Commission on June 30, 1949. He was identified with the<br />

Seminary from its beginning and made a notable contribution to its progress.<br />

During his administration four new and handsome buildings were erected: a<br />

grill and bookstore, a modern heating plant, an administration building, and the<br />

annex to Griggs Hall Dormitory, all built at a total cost of $230,000.00.<br />

In addition to these buildings, the grounds were beautified, concrete walks<br />

laid, hard surfaced driveways built, a spacious entrance and exit, and ample<br />

parking space provided at a total cost of $17,500.00. Other physical improvements<br />

include a six-inch water main extended from the city of Nashville through<br />

the Seminary grounds, and two fire plugs installed at a cost of $18,500.00. These<br />

improvements add up to a grand total of $266,000.00, although only $166,104.70<br />

have been received for capital needs during the last six years of his administration.<br />

Thus we recognize the valuable and permanent contribution of Dr. Alldredge<br />

to the progress of the Seminary.<br />

Ivlr. Richard Miles, Engineer and Maintenance<br />

Superintendent<br />

Mr. Richard Miles has been secured to fill the vacancy created by the death<br />

of Mr. Hunt. Mr. Miles is the son of Prof. J. C. Miles, who has taught Bible<br />

at the Seminary since 1930.<br />

Seminary Finances Satisfactory<br />

During the year 1952 the National Baptist Convention increased its financial<br />

support of the Seminary to $21,231.35. The Commission gave to the Seminary<br />

operating expenses $43,821.00, but in doing so, it was necessary to reduce our<br />

working capital fund from $23,781.01 to $7,823.88. However, the Seminary is<br />

now in a sound financial condition with all current bills paid to date.<br />

The Building Program Continues<br />

During 1952 five duplex apartments were completed and furnished and all<br />

were immediately occupied. The cost of these apartments was $55,335.51.<br />

Plans were worked out and a contract let for the new library building at a<br />

cost of $107,000.00. It is now under construction with the promise of completion<br />

by September 1, 1953. The building will house 50,000 volumes, accommodate<br />

800 students, and its capacity can be doubled if future needs require it.<br />

The Faculty Well Qualified<br />

The faculty, numbering 7, is well qualified, all having graduate degrees, one<br />

with a doctor's degree. Salaries for the faculty are low, and it is hoped the<br />

trustees will recommend a raise for them.<br />

The Curriculum Strengthened<br />

The standards of the school have been raised, and the curriculum strengthened.<br />

Four years of work are now required after high school graduation for<br />

the Th.B. degree, and three years for college graduates for the B.D. degree. Dr.<br />

Victor T. Glass was appointed as acting dean during the year. Every effort is


344 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

being made to maintain a high quality of work and to meet the standard requirements<br />

of the American Association of Theological Schools. Since there are but<br />

two accredited seminaries for Negroes in the United States, and these are a<br />

government sponsored school and a Methodist school, the need is great for a first<br />

class accredited seminary here in the South. We believe that with continued<br />

progress the American Seminary will soon be able to meet that need.<br />

The Enrolment Continues Small<br />

Due to financial need for funds for students, and the decreasing number<br />

G.I. students, as well as to the raising of the standards of the school, the enrolment<br />

continues low. Sixty students have been enrolled in the main school<br />

this year, with fifty-nine in the correspondence department. Seventeen states,<br />

Central and South America, and the Bahama Islands are represented in the<br />

current enrolment.<br />

Why So Few?<br />

"The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few"—Luke 10:2.<br />

Since the Survey on Negro Ministerial Education has revealed the fact that<br />

there are very few Negro ministrial students in our colleges and seminaries,<br />

many have been asking, "Why so few"? According to the latest figures available,<br />

a comparative study of Negro Baptists and Southern Baptists reveals the following<br />

facts:<br />

1. Negro Baptists in the United States:<br />

National Baptists of America 12,859 churches, 2,896,987 members<br />

National Baptist Incorporated 25,350 churches, 4,445,605 members<br />

or, a total of 38,209 churches, 7,342,592 members<br />

(See 1953 World Almanac and Book of Facts, page 705)<br />

2. Southern Baptists have 28,865 churches, 7,634,493 members<br />

(See "The Survey Bulletin," No. 6, Feb. 9, 1953, Vol. 8)<br />

3. Southern Baptist Ministerial students:<br />

(1) In our Seminaries 3,038<br />

(2) In Senior Colleges 3,890<br />

(3) In Junior Colleges 1,184<br />

Total 8,112<br />

(See Southern Baptist Handbook, 1952, pages 112-115)<br />

Negro Baptist Ministerial Students:<br />

(1) In 8 Negro Seminaries, 1949-50<br />

Students for B.D. degree 102<br />

Students for B.Th. degree 137<br />

Students for certificate courses 80<br />

Total ; 319<br />

(2) Ministerial students in 13 Negro College Departments 353<br />

Or a total of 672<br />

(See Survey on "The Negro Baptist Ministry" by Dr. Ira DeA. Reid, 1951,<br />

tables III, pages 18, 19, 20, and 23)<br />

Dr. E. A. McDowell in his report to the Southern Baptist Convention, 19<br />

says, "In round numbers there are 1,000 Baptist Negro ministerial students in<br />

training in the U.S. in creditable institutions of learning, (colleges, seminaries,<br />

divinity schools, white and Negro, North and South).<br />

(See Southern Baptist Convention Annual 1952, page 444)<br />

5. A study of Negro colleges may help answer the question, "Why so few 7<br />

The Education Directory, 1952-53, part 3, "Higher Education," by the Feder<br />

Security Agency, Office of Education, reveals this information:


AMERICAN BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY 345<br />

Kind of College Number of % accredited Enrolment<br />

n. Colleges<br />

Uty, btate & Gov't 38 84 40,594<br />

Private •••; 12 75 7,067<br />

Denominational 52 57 18,463<br />

T ° tal 102 66,124<br />

Among demoninational colleges, the Methodists are in the lead:<br />

Methodist Colleges 22 68 8,764<br />

Baptist Colleges 13 46 4^848<br />

Thus Baptist colleges, with 4,848 enrolled out of a total of 66,124 Negro<br />

college students, are educating 7 per cent of those students though Negroes are<br />

from 50 to 75 per cent Baptists.<br />

6. The Remedy.—The remedy for this condition may be found by a two-fold<br />

approach:<br />

First: The Baptist students in all colleges should be reached and encouraged<br />

in spiritual living and loyalty to their churches. Many of them may answer the<br />

call to full-time Christian service. This can be done' by placing a unit of the<br />

Baptist Student Union on every campus where there are sufficient Baptist students<br />

to justify it.<br />

Second: There must be, as quickly as possible, an accredited seminary for<br />

Negro ministerial students. If the Negro colleges and seminaries could work<br />

together, avoid needless duplication, and agree that those colleges which cannot<br />

do both college and seminary work shall concentrate on college work, and the<br />

seminaries on seminary work, the result would be more accredited Baptist colleges,<br />

and one or more accredited Baptist seminaries in the South.<br />

7. The American Baptist Theological Seminary has an increasing possibility<br />

of becoming a strong seminary. The following facts should be remembered:<br />

(1) It has a long history of denominational co-operation.<br />

(2) It is owned and controlled by National Baptists, Inc., and Southern<br />

Baptists.<br />

(3) It has splendid physical facilities and is continuing to build. A new<br />

Library building costing $107,000.00 is now under construction,<br />

which will give it a campus of 50 acres and a plant valued at<br />

$600,000.00.<br />

(4) Its faculty numbers seven professors, all with graduate degrees, one<br />

with a doctor's degree.<br />

(5) It has the widest reach in drawing students from all over the United<br />

States of any school for Negroes.<br />

(6) The financial support of Negro Baptists is increasing, and Southern<br />

Baptists are putting over $100,000.00 per year into it.<br />

There is a possibility that the American Baptist Theological Seminary will<br />

continue to grow and that it will reach standardization before any other Negro<br />

seminary does.<br />

GOLDEN GATE BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY<br />

HAROLD K. GRAVES, President<br />

The Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary received its first charter<br />

the State of California in July, 1944. Its home was in the Golden Gate Baptist<br />

Church in Oakland; Rev. Isom B. Hodges, the pastor of that church, its first<br />

president. Dr. B. 0. Herring came to the presidency in June, 1946, at the time<br />

the institution was being adopted by the Southern Baptist General Convention<br />

of California. The Seminary was moved to Berkeley, its present location, in the<br />

summer of 1947. It was at the annual meeting of the Southern Baptist Convention<br />

held in Chicago in 1950 that the Golden Gate Seminary was accepted as an<br />

agency of that Convention. A Board of Trustees was elected of which Dr. E.<br />

Hermond Westmoreland of Houston has been the chairman from the beginning.<br />

In the spring of 1952 Dr. Herring resigned to become president of Grand<br />

Canyon College in Arizona. At a meeting held in Miami, Florida, in May, 1952,<br />

the Seminary trustees elected Dr. Harold K. Graves as the new president. He<br />

began his work July 1 and was formally inaugurated at ceremonies held in<br />

Berkeley, December 11, 1952.<br />

Since the writing of the last report to this Convention, there have been several<br />

changes in faculty and staff. Mr. Paul Mason became business manager in<br />

March, 1952. Dr. Fred L. Fisher was added to the Department of New Testament<br />

Interpretation in September. Dr. and Mrs. Carlyle D. Bennett were added<br />

to the Church Music faculty in January, 1953. Announcement will soon be made<br />

of the addition of three additional members of the teaching staff. Dr. A. L.<br />

Aulick, well-known Greek scholar and teacher, reached the age of retirement<br />

during the session and was elected Professor Emeritus by the Board of Trustees<br />

in December. There is no way of measuring the contribution Dr. Aulick has<br />

made to this Seminary nor to the life of our denomination in his long period of<br />

service as pastor, college teacher, and seminary professor. We are happy that<br />

he is in good health and will be available for part-time teaching or such other<br />

service as he may be able to render.<br />

Physical Plant<br />

Proper physical facilities remain our No. 1 problem. Our present buildin<br />

while very attractive and usable with the improvements which have been made,<br />

continue to limit our capacity for students. During the year additional buildings<br />

have been leased and now provide adequate space to house all our single<br />

students, both men and women. The housing of families remains a real problem.<br />

The trustees have voted to purchase a proposed campus site if and when it<br />

becomes available. Its availability remains in doubt at this writing. Mr. John<br />

Carl Warnecke, A.I.A., and his firm of architects have been employed to assist in<br />

the planning and development of a new campus. His preliminary studies in<br />

consultation with our faculty and other denominational leaders have convinced<br />

us that we need to have one hundred acres on which to build if we are to build<br />

well along the California pattern.<br />

Student Body<br />

We have had an accumulated enrolment of 244 this session, not counting t<br />

summer school. Of this number, 180 are ministerial students, 12 men are in<br />

religious education, and 52 women in either religious education or music. These<br />

students have come from 26 states and 6 foreign countries. College graduates<br />

come from 56 different schools. The quality of the students has been most<br />

gratifying. Many have come West with the conviction that God would have<br />

them be trained and do service somewhere in the West. More than one-half<br />

of the student body has been employed by the California churches in one way or<br />

another. All others are busily engaged in the Practical Activities program which<br />

seeks to do something with the overwhelming mission opportunities provided in<br />

the Bay Area. Many of our students are mission volunteers.<br />

The W.M.U. of California has been of tremendous help in providing eight<br />

scholarships worth $300 each for young women in the Seminary. The women<br />

of several other states have provided one or more scholarships also. For the<br />

most part these are work scholarships and benefit both the student and the Seminary.vision<br />

for Other help than to the a small students emergency from outside loan sources.<br />

fund, these represent the onlv pro

Financial Position<br />

fVi lk it i 1 ^ G°d daily for the Cooperative Program. Through this medium<br />

the bulk of the financial needs of the Seminary will be met. Operating budget<br />

receipts irom the Cooperative Program, along with the gift from the Conover<br />

estate, provide funds for operations in 1953. The proposed recommendation of<br />

the Executive Committee of the Convention for our share of Cooperative Program<br />

funds m 1954 will make possible a re-study of our entire financial structure and<br />

provide some relief for our critical salary situation. The Capital Needs allotment<br />

is a good beginning toward providing an adequate physical plant. Thank<br />

you for your loyal support of the Cooperative Program and of Golden Gate<br />

Seminary.<br />

We are using excerpts from the audit of Goodell, Byers, & Co., to compose<br />

our financial statement which is shown below. The complete audit is on file<br />

in our business office and in the office of the Executive Secretary of the Executive<br />

Committee.<br />

Dear Sir:<br />

We are pleased to report the records were found in good order and properly maintained. Every<br />

facility and courtesy was extended us during the examination.<br />

Our examination was made in accordance with generaUy accepted auditing standards, and<br />

accordingly included tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we<br />

considered necessary in the circumstances.<br />

In our opinion the accompanying balance sheet and statement of income and expenses present<br />

fairly the financial position of Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary at December 31, 1952<br />

and the results of operations for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting<br />

principles applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.<br />

<strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT<br />

NEW ORLEANS BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY<br />

ROLAND Q. LEAVELL, President<br />

It is with profound joy that this report of the New Orleans Seminary is<br />

made, believing that it is by far the best year in the present administration.<br />

The past year has been a peak year in enrolment. The faculty has been our<br />

largest. The institution has had the greatest income, the greatest number of<br />

foreign mission volunteers, and the greatest number of souls won to Christ<br />

through the Practical Activities Department in its history. The building program<br />

of the new Seminary on the seventy-five-acre Gentilly campus has been<br />

advancing remarkably well. There is every prospect for moving all administration<br />

and classes to the new campus by September 1, 1953.<br />

Two heavy clouds of sorrow have overwhelmed us. Our beloved Dr. Arthur<br />

S. Gillespie, 50, of the Missions Department suddenly and unexpectedly passed<br />

away on December 28, 1952. His two and one-half sessions in our midst were<br />

enough to win our entire love and to impress his deeply spiritual personality<br />

upon all students and faculty. Professor Ernest 0. Sellers, emeritus professor<br />

of the School of Sacred Music, likewise went to be with the Lord. The new<br />

music school building has been named in his honor.<br />

I<br />

Faculty<br />

The amazing growth of the student enrolment has necessitated faculty expansion.<br />

II<br />

The enrolment on February 1, 1953, was 711. Apartments are all filled and<br />

scores oi students are paying exceedingly high rent in the city. Many unmarried<br />

as well as married men are forced to find living quarters off the campus, in spite<br />

of our haying about ninety new apartments on the Gentilly campus.<br />

The following statistics reveal the classification of the students:<br />

Candidates for Doctor of Theology 43<br />

Candidates for Master of Theology 9<br />

Candidates for Bachelor of Divinity 390<br />

Candidates for Master of Religious Education 65<br />

Accreditation and Awards<br />

The New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary holds associate membership<br />

in the American Association of Theological Schools. Credits here are accepted<br />

anywhere within that Association. Full reports have been sent in looking toward<br />

complete accreditation of the degrees in the School of Theology at an early date.<br />

IV<br />

Practical Activities Department<br />

The spirit of soul-winning, church-building, and kingdom service continues<br />

to be the dominating feature of the Seminary. Mission busses are kept busy.<br />

All^ first-year and second-year students are required to do mission leadership<br />

assignments each week and to report on the same.<br />

The student pastors number 341. Nineteen graduate students teach in the<br />

Union Baptist Theological Seminary (Negro). Various groups go weekly to<br />

the hospitals, rescue missions, home for incurables, and to scores of mission<br />

points of various types.<br />

The vast reach of this program is indicated by statistics from the year<br />

1951-52.<br />

Number dealt with personally 40,500<br />

Number of gospel tracts and Testaments given 69,283<br />

Number of professions of faith 1,603<br />

Average professions of faith per week 50<br />

Number of additions by letter 1,995<br />

Average number of additions by letter per week GOY2<br />

Student missionaries work continually with the French, Spanish, Negro, Italian,<br />

and other racial groups. This is superb training for missionaries of the Home<br />

and Foreign boards.<br />

V<br />

Building Program for New Gentilly Campus<br />

The magnificent building program on the Gentilly campus is sufficiently<br />

advanced to insure our moving there this summer and beginning operations in<br />

full September 1. In 1947, when the seventy-five-acre campus was purchased<br />

we announced that we hoped to move there in 1953. We are on schedule, thanks<br />

to the capital funds received from the Cooperative Program.<br />

Ground was broken on July 1, 1948, for the Christian, Crutcher, Gwatkin,<br />

and Managan apartment buildings. They were occupied September 1, 1949.<br />

An apartment building of three sections, named for Lowry B. Eastland, R. J.<br />

WiUingham, and B. D. Gray, was occupied December 21, 1950. The magnificent<br />

library building was formally dedicated September 6, 1951.


360 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

The William Carey residence hall for women, the three-sectioned residence<br />

hall for men named for Charles Haddon Spurgeon, M. E. Dodd, and f. 1.<br />

Lipsey, the B. H. DeMent administration building, the John Bunyan classroom<br />

building, the cafeteria, the E. O. Sellers music school, the elementary religious<br />

education demonstration school, and the book store are all nearing completion.<br />

Nine residences for faculty members have been built.<br />

Even yet there must come in future years a religious education building, a<br />

permanent chapel, twelve additional faculty residences, a student center and<br />

canteen, a gymnasium for men and women, a garage for mission busses, a small<br />

infirmary, and perhaps another one hundred student family apartments.<br />

The trustees are selling a few of the faculty duplexes on the Washington<br />

Avenue campus to build similar housing on the Gentilly campus. The Board of<br />

Trustees on February 11, 1953, committed the disposition of the central square<br />

at 1220 Washington to the Executive Committee with power to act, when at least<br />

seven of the thirteen members are present and vote unanimously. The proceeds<br />

of the central square are to be used for endowment, if possible. Housing sales<br />

will be used to erect new housing in Gentilly.<br />

364 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

<strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT FOR 1952<br />

SOUTHEASTERN BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY<br />

S. L. STEALEY, President<br />

We have completed happily and successfully our second year of operation.<br />

Spirit and morale are high. Friends all over the Convention have encouraged<br />

and helped in many ways. Our Board works closely with President and Faculty.<br />

We have moved steadily toward the full three-year course which will be offered<br />

next September. God has richly blessed us with a strong faculty and a happy<br />

student body. We will be limited to one building and about 300 students until<br />

Wake Forest College moves to Winston-Salem, which it now seems will be in<br />

July, 1955.<br />

Students<br />

We enrolled this year a total of 230 students. Twelve of them were forced<br />

withdraw, due chiefly to physical or financial difficulties. States represented,<br />

sixteen; colleges, forty-nine. More than 200 more students than we can accommodate<br />

have requested entrance for the 1953-1954 session. Our deepest regret is<br />

that we cannot receive all at present. We are making every effort to take<br />

every possible student. Student morale is splendid. They have organized themselves<br />

and lend strong help to many phases of Seminary life and development.<br />

"You can't imagine how proud we students are of Southeastern," is a typical<br />

statement.<br />

Faculty<br />

"I am grateful to God for permitting me to have a part here," is a sentim<br />

frequently expressed by every member of our faculty.<br />

"God has certainly blessed you in the building of your faculty," represents<br />

the thinking of many a correspondent. Our present faculty:<br />

J. B. Hipps, Missions<br />

J. Leo Green, Old Testament<br />

S. L. Stealey, Church History<br />

Marc H. Lovelace, Biblical Archaeology<br />

(The above began in 1951)<br />

E. A. McDowell, New Testament<br />

R. T. Daniel, Old Testament<br />

O. T. Binkley, Christian Ethics and Sociology<br />

M. Ray McKay, Preaching and Evangelism<br />

Stewart A. Newman, Theology and Philosophy<br />

W. C. Strickland, New Testament<br />

In addition, J. R. Robinson taught Homiletics the first year and aided Pr<br />

Stealey in Church History both years.<br />

Library<br />

Our library has grown already to about 9,000 volumes. Brethren responded<br />

beautifully to our request for books to be given. The William Hersey Davis<br />

collection of New Testament books was a most valuable gift from Professor<br />

Davis' widow and son. We were most fortunate to secure the services of Rev.<br />

Edwin C. Osburn of Alabama as Catalogue Librarian.<br />

Plans for 1953-1954<br />

Our Board of Trustees, on February 12, 1953, elected three strong men to<br />

our faculty. Pope A. Duncan will come from Stetson University to the chair<br />

of Church History. Prof. Duncan has made an enviable record during six years<br />

of college teaching. He has been asked to lecture in Oxford, England if he can<br />

arrange to travel.<br />

Richard K. Young will teach Pastoral Care, often called Counseling He is<br />

also on the faculty of Bowman Gray School of Medicine in Winston-Salem His<br />

outstanding work has already received wide recognition.


SOUTHEASTERN BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY 365<br />

Uarland A. Hendricks, who has earned an outstanding place as a rural church<br />

advocate will teach Community Church Development and will supervise field<br />

worK. southeastern is emphasizing as strongly as we can this important area<br />

ot our work. Our Sunday School Board made a gift of $10,000 to help inaugurate<br />

it. Professor Hendricks will address the Southern Baptist Convention<br />

in Houston.<br />

Our Needs<br />

The campus of Wake Forest College must be adapted to Seminary needs. The<br />

Cooperative Program, we hope, will provide funds for the renovation of many<br />

buildings so that they may accommodate our student families. We need, as do<br />

all our sister seminaries, funds for Student Aid and for Endowment. We<br />

earnestly ask our people to provide these funds. The best way is to support the<br />

Cooperative Program. Another most important way is for us to remember our<br />

seminaries in our wills.<br />

Above all, we ask a place in the prayers of our brethren.<br />

370 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

SEVENTH <strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT<br />

SOUTHERN BAPTIST FOUNDATION<br />

C. H. BOLTON, Executive Secretary<br />

1949-1952<br />

The apostle Peter has set a very fine example for all of us in that he was<br />

concerned about his influence for good after his death. In the first chapter of<br />

his second epistle he tells his readers about some of God's mercies and then<br />

admonishes them as to how they ought to live. He gave two reasons for this<br />

exhortation. He felt it was good for them to be thus reminded of their privileges<br />

as Christians and also that he might live on in the work of his Lord after his<br />

departure. "Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance<br />

of these things, though ye know them, and be established in the present<br />

truth. Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up<br />

by putting you in remembrance; knowing that shortly I must put off this my<br />

tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me. Moreover I will<br />

endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always<br />

in remembrance" (2 Peter 1:12-15).<br />

Opportunities Offered<br />

The Southern Baptist Foundation offers a great opportunity for you to<br />

extend your good influence out across many generations. You can make a gift<br />

or leave a bequest, whether large or small, to come to the Foundation at your<br />

death. It will be a perpetual aid to some phase of the Lord's work. All of<br />

it will go to support the particular cause you select, and no part of it is used<br />

for operating expenses.<br />

Annuity Gifts<br />

Where a person wishes to make a gift and desires an income from it as long<br />

as he may live, he can make it on an annuity basis. In a few words, that simply<br />

means that the giver will receive interest on the annuity, payable January 1<br />

and July 1 of each year, during his lifetime. The rate of return is determined<br />

by the age of the annuitant. A post card to the Foundation giving date of<br />

birth will bring you information on any gift you may wish to make.<br />

Scope of <strong>Services</strong><br />

Every agency and phase of the work of Southern Baptists is also the work<br />

of the Foundation. It is a service agency for support of all the other agencies.<br />

You may select missions, hospitals, Christian and theological education,<br />

benevolences, or any phase of the Lord's work.<br />

We would like to emphasize the urgent need of gifts to help young preachers.<br />

Money given to this particular need goes into the Ministerial Aid Trust. It<br />

is carefully invested and the income given to worthy, needy ministerial students.<br />

A person may become a member of this trust by a gift as small as one dollar.<br />

There is no limit to the largeness of the gift. At least a million Southern<br />

Baptists should join this trust without delay.<br />

New Secretary<br />

<strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT FOR 1952<br />

SOUTHERN BAPTIST HOSPITAL<br />

FRANK TRIPP, Executive Secretary-Superintendent<br />

The hospital rendered service to 34,800 people in 1952. Of this number<br />

20,837 were bed patients, 13,963 were out-patients, and 3,490 were new born<br />

infants. Notwithstanding the fact that 150 beds were added in the completion of<br />

the new South Wing Addition, we are still operating almost at capacity in the<br />

medical and surgical services.<br />

The Balance Sheet and the Statement of Income and Expenses reflect the<br />

financial condition of the hospital as of December 31, 1952, and are taken from<br />

the report of the Certified Public Accountant's examination of our books and<br />

records.<br />

School of Nursing<br />

Seventy-five young women were enrolled in the School of Nursing, September<br />

5, 1952. Again we earnestly solicit the co-operation of all of our friends in our<br />

efforts to recruit young women for training in the Mather School of Nursing. The<br />

next class will be received around September 1, and it is hoped that a minimum<br />

of 125 young women will be enrolled at that time. The basic requirements are:<br />

1. Graduation from an accredited high school.<br />

2. Good health.<br />

3. Good moral character.<br />

Capital Improvements<br />

The action of the Convention in its 1952 session, allocating $120,000.00 to be<br />

used in capital improvements, has made it possible for the trustees and the<br />

administration to undertake major alterations and repairs in the old buildings.<br />

This work is continuing and will be completed as rapidly as funds are available.<br />

Funds received in 1952 were used in the enlargement and re-equipping of the main<br />

kitchen, the business office, the admitting offices, the accounting department, and<br />

the emergency department.<br />

We are presently engaged in enlarging the Central Supply Department,<br />

which is being done at considerable expense. We had reached the point where it<br />

was absolutely necessary not only to enlarge but to re-equip the department. A<br />

completely new sterilizing system is being included in the new Central Supply<br />

Department.<br />

Plans have been completed by the architects for the complete remodeling of<br />

the eighth floor of the old building into a modern surgical suite. It is imperative<br />

that we have additional operating rooms with all the essential, related<br />

facilities. This work will have to be accomplished as funds are available through<br />

the Cooperative Program Capital Funds Division and such gifts from friends as<br />

we may receive. The architect's plans include the closing of all stairways in the<br />

old building, which we have been ordered to do by the State Fire Marshall. They<br />

also include complete air conditioning of the eighth floor, the installation of an<br />

emergency lighting system in the old building, and the replacement of much of<br />

the presently overloaded wiring in the old building.<br />

Jacksonville, Florida, Hospital<br />

The architects have promised to complete the working drawings and specifications<br />

for the Jacksonville hospital by March 15, 1953. The committee there has<br />

notified the hospital Board that a minimum of $1,250,000.00 can be made available<br />

to the Board by the time bids are received for the construction of the first<br />

building.<br />

Work on the Jacksonville project will be carried out within the provisions<br />

of the resolution passed by the Convention at Miami in 1952.<br />

Approval for Change in Constitution Requested<br />

At the meeting held January 27, 1953, the Board of Directors unanimously<br />

voted to request the Convention's approval of changes in the hospital's Charter:

SOUTHERN BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY 375<br />

NINETY-FOURTH <strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT<br />

SOUTHERN BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY<br />

DUKE K. McCALL, President<br />

Plans for the centennial celebration of the Southern Baptist Theological<br />

Seminary m 1959 have already begun. The centennial goals include (1) a<br />

history of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, (2) an increase of the<br />

endowment of the Seminary by one million dollars, (3) the erection of a new<br />

library building to provide sufficient stack room space and reading room, (4) the<br />

provision of living quarters for both single and married students on "the campus.<br />

Definite steps toward the realization of these goals have already been taken.<br />

Centennial History<br />

Dr. W. 0. Carver has completed an informal statement of his recollections of<br />

events in the life of the Seminary. A trustee committee is seeking to add additional<br />

facts and also to secure the best qualified writer to prepare a history of<br />

the first one hundred years of the life of the Seminary.<br />

Endowment<br />

Efforts to endow the A. T. Robertson Chair of New Testament Interpretation,<br />

the W. Hershey Davis Chair of New Testament Interpretation, the John A.<br />

Broadus Chair of Preaching, and the W. 0. Carver Chair of Missions are in<br />

progress. The endowment of each of these chairs will require $250,000. Gifts, bequests<br />

and annuity agreements have already been made to the endowment of these<br />

chairs. We pray that God will raise up other generous friends to complete the<br />

task by 1959, thereby assuring that the Seminary will be able to secure men<br />

as able successors to the one whose endowed chair they fill.<br />

Library<br />

Tentative plans for a library have already been drawn. A beautiful library<br />

building adjacent to Norton Hall, and balancing the Alumni Chapel, is planned<br />

with adequate stack room and reading room space and also with rooms for<br />

microfilm readers, audio-visual aids, and graduate student carrells. Two factors<br />

make the erection of a new library building imperative:<br />

First, the Seminary has outgrown its present library quarters, both in terms<br />

of reading room and stack room space. The addition of books and other valuable<br />

items to the Seminary library through the past ninety-four years has made it<br />

necessary to plan additional stack room space. In particular, dreams of establishing<br />

a center for Baptist scholars from all over the world have motivated<br />

the most rapid addition of materials to the Seminary library possible. The<br />

growth of the student body has over-crowded reading room space.<br />

In the second place, the addition of the School of Religious Education has<br />

created requirements for classroom and office space in Norton Hall which<br />

cannot be secured except through the conversion of the present library space<br />

for the School of Religious Education. The use of the present library space in<br />

Norton Hall for the School of Religious Education will prevent the separation<br />

of ministerial students and educational workers, both in terms of classroom<br />

arrangements and, ultimately, in the attitude toward the relationship of the<br />

various staff members within the church program. It is disastrous for the<br />

church when the training of the pastor and the minister of education set the two<br />

men in competition, one with the other.<br />

Apartments and Women's Dormitory<br />

The trustees of the Seminary have purchased all of the stock of the Green Tree<br />

Manor Corporation. In this way the Seminary has secured ownership and control<br />

of a housing project approximately one and a half miles from the campus which<br />

consists of 265 apartments. This will relieve the housing situation for married<br />

students though it does not begin to provide for all families who would like to live<br />

on the campus.<br />

Faculty<br />

The faculty of the Seminary has been greatly enlarged, both to provide for<br />

the expansion in the School of Church Music and the School of Religious


376 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Education. In addition, the faculty of the School of Theology is in process<br />

of being enlarged to provide for the minimum number of faculty members tor<br />

the present enrolment according to standards for an accredited theological<br />

seminary.<br />

Three Schools<br />

The Seminary has been organized into a School of Church Music, headed<br />

by Dean Forrest Heeren; a School of Religious Education, headed by Dean<br />

Gaines S. Dobbins; and also a School of Theology for which the president<br />

of the Seminary is directly responsible. In order that these three schools<br />

may have uniform academic standards and procedures, Dr. Hugh Peterson has<br />

been advanced from Registrar to Dean of Students. In this capacity he serves<br />

as liaison between the three schools with reference to the academic life of<br />

the Seminary.<br />

School of Theology<br />

In the division of the Seminary into three schools, a complete reorganization<br />

of the curriculum was made necessary. This difficult task involved development<br />

of a philosophy of education for the Seminary. In this study it was determined<br />

that the Seminary would avoid the characteristics of a Bible institute, which<br />

may be compared to a trade school. Thus, the School of Theology has developed<br />

its curriculum along the lines of the traditional theological studies with modifications<br />

in the light of the specific needs of the Southern Baptist Convention.<br />

This has involved a rejection of the fragmentation of curriculum, resulting<br />

from the provision of a special course for each type of work in which a student<br />

may be engaged.<br />

For example, the Seminary has refused to set up a special course for<br />

chaplains. Instead, it has made provision for meeting the specific needs of<br />

the chaplains within the framework of regular theological courses. The leadership<br />

of the military chaplaincy was so impressed by this program that an<br />

invitation was given to President McCall to join the three chief of chaplains<br />

in a survey of the needs of the chaplains through an on-the-site study in Japan,<br />

Okinawa, the Philippines, and Korea. It is hoped that this study will issue<br />

in the creation of a model program of chaplaincy training for all theological<br />

institutions because it is being worked out within traditional courses of study.<br />

(In addition to provisions in the Seminary classrooms, there.is a Naval Reserve<br />

Chaplains Unit on Southern Seminary's campus.)<br />

School of Religious Education<br />

Through the careful development of the curriculum of the Schoool of Religious<br />

Education, the highest academic standards are combined with practical<br />

technique courses. Competent specialists in each area teach the courses<br />

involved. We are especially proud of the faculty with which the School of<br />

Religious Education will begin in September, 1953.<br />

School of Church Music<br />

The School of Church Music is moving rapidly toward the goal of accreditation<br />

by the National Association of Schools of Music. The securing of<br />

this accreditation will make the School of Church Music the first Southern<br />

Baptist Institution able to give music degrees accredited by this top national<br />

accrediting agency. The curriculum of the School of Church Music has been<br />

strengthened and, with additional library resources and physical equipment<br />

and new faculty members, gives us reason to expect that within a short time<br />

accreditation may be possible.<br />

Financial Board<br />

At the administrative level, the Seminary has completely reworked its<br />

financial system, changing from a cash to an accrual basis of accounting. It<br />

is also anticipated that, with the permission of the Southern Baptist Convention,<br />

the fiscal year will be changed from beginning January 1 to August 1. The<br />

use of the natural school year will make all records much more usable than<br />

the present calendar year reports.<br />

In addition, all invested funds have been transferred to the Financial Board,<br />

composed of five outstanding businessmen and the president of the Seminary.<br />

Thus it is possible for the Seminary to secure the maximum yield with safety<br />

on its endowment, trust funds, and reserves. By charter provisions, the Financial<br />

Board operates independently of the administrative officers of the Seminary<br />

and therefore is never under pressure to jeopardize the corpus of any trust


SOUTHERN BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY 377<br />

fund in order to squeeze out a bit more of current income. We believe that<br />

vz £ rra P& eine nt is an ideal arrangement for the handling of all funds from<br />

wnicn only the income is to be used in the current operation of an institution.<br />

Leadership<br />

The Seminary continues to accept responsibility for providing leadership<br />

in theological matters for the denomination. This is in no sense leadership of<br />

an authoritative nature but only in the sense of information based on careful<br />

study.<br />

Thus the Seminary faculty provided the denominational publications with<br />

its collective judgment regarding the Revised Standard Version of the Bible.<br />

No effort was made to secure any agreement on the part of individuals or<br />

groups with this statement, nor was the statement intended to indicate that<br />

every member of the faculty agreed with every translation in the Revised<br />

Standard Version. It was thought appropriate that the denomination at large<br />

should know that the faculty of the Seminary recognized the competence of<br />

the scholarship which had produced the Revised Standard Version.<br />

When the suggestion that the Convention establish a commission to restudy<br />

the doctrine of the church met with almost the unanimous opinion that the<br />

Convention was not authorized to undertake such a study, the Seminary made<br />

arrangements for a group of able men to meet in Louisville at the time of<br />

the annual Seminary Summer Conference in August, 1953. An effort was made<br />

to provide a cross-section of theological views within the group selected. This<br />

group will meet with members of Southern Seminary faculty for one week,<br />

during which time a study and discussion of the church in the light of all the<br />

insights of the present day will be made. It is hoped that out of this study<br />

will come some material for the denomination at large to use. It should be<br />

noted that neither the Seminary nor this group of scholars has any idea that<br />

a statement of the commission will have any authority except as the truth of<br />

the utterance may be recognized by individuals.<br />

The Review and Expositor is the only theological quarterly published within<br />

the Southern Baptist Convention. Its editorial policies have been restated in<br />

order to make it possible for Southern Baptists, through one of their own<br />

journals, to be aware of all of the major currents of thought within the Christian<br />

fellowship. It is not published by the Seminary as such but by the<br />

Faculty Club of the Seminary.<br />

Enrolment<br />

The total number of students matriculated during the year was: Theological<br />

Students, 1032; Music School, 56. The number graduated since the last report<br />

was 293.<br />

Conferences<br />

In addition to the service rendered its own students, Southern Seminary<br />

also provided for the meeting of the Eastern Rural Life Leadership Conference,<br />

May 27-29, 1952, the Seminary Summer Conference, July 21-August 1, 1952,<br />

an Audio-visual Aids Conference, February 2-6, 1953, a Church Music Clinic<br />

January 15-16, 1953, an architectural exhibit for churches planning to build<br />

or remodel, March 3-6, 1953.<br />

Seminary Extension Service<br />

Southern Seminary also participates in the Seminary Extension Service by<br />

w"hich the seminaries seek to serve those men who cannot study on a seminary<br />

campus. Southern Seminary admits to its classroom college graduates and<br />

those men of demonstrated ability whose circumstances make it impossible<br />

for them to attend college.<br />

The expansion of the departments of religion within Baptist colleges and<br />

provision for tuition-free training, etc., decreases each year the number of<br />

men without college training who should attend any seminary. There is no<br />

competition between the seminaries and the colleges, since the educational<br />

program of the two are supplemental. Any young man called of God, with<br />

average ability, can attend both college and a seminary. The provision by<br />

generous donors of student aid and loan funds and work grant funds make<br />

Seminary attendance possible for every qualified student.

To the Board of Trustees,<br />

The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary,<br />

Louisville, Kentucky.<br />

We have examined the balance sheet of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary as of December<br />

31, 1952, and the related condensed statement of income and expenses and unappropriated surplus for<br />

the year then ended. Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing<br />

standards, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing<br />

procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.<br />

In our opinion, the accompanying balance sheet and condensed statement of income and expenses<br />

and unappropriated surplus, prepared principally on the basis of cash receipts and disbursements,<br />

present fairly the financial position of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary at December 31,<br />

1952, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, on a basis consistent with that of the<br />

preceding year. LYBRAND, ROSS BROS. & MONTGOMERY<br />

SOUTHWESTERN BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY 385<br />

<strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT<br />

SOUTHWESTERN BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL<br />

SEMINARY<br />

E. D. HEAD, President<br />

On May 1, 1953, the current year at Southwestern will be history. At this<br />

point the record is complete enough for review.<br />

The enrolment for the session, including the summer school of 1952, shows<br />

a total of 2,160: School of Theology, 1,354; School of Religious Education, 749;<br />

School of Sacred Music, 124. In the totals there are 38 states represented, also<br />

the District of Columbia, and 10 countries outside the United States. Of the total,<br />

807 are new students. Since the founding of the Seminary, 14,386 students have<br />

been enrolled.<br />

Turning attention to the sum of those who have graduated and are to receive<br />

diplomas at the forthcoming commencement, we find that 126 have graduated so<br />

far this session, while 349 have applied for graduation at the commencement<br />

May 1. It will be of interest, also, that 4,878 have graduated during the life of<br />

the Seminary.<br />

Financially speaking, the Seminary received for current operations from the<br />

Cooperative Program $200,301.86. For capital needs, the amount received is<br />

$274,200.00. Meaning that the Cooperative Program provided a total of $474,-<br />

501.86 for both current and capital operations. We closed our books on<br />

December 31, 1952, with an operating surplus of $5,840.26 for the year. The<br />

endowment at present is $1,807,139.82, while the present property value is<br />

$3,990,277.79.<br />

The Fleming Library has 59,203 books and 3,278 pamphlets as of January<br />

1, 1953. As elegantly and fully equipped as is the library, at certain periods<br />

seating space is inadequate. Recognizing the key importance of the library, as<br />

generous provision as possible is made each year in the budget for the purchase<br />

of books and periodicals, as well as for sufficient personnel to serve the enlarging<br />

demands for library service.<br />

Special conferences conducted on the campus during the past year, now<br />

permanently established features, indicate the ways in which the Seminary is<br />

keeping abreast with developments in very challenging areas, some of them relatively<br />

new fields. We can do nothing but list them here: Conferences for Student<br />

Secretaries, Rural Life Leadership, Religious Education Association, Church<br />

Music Workshop, Mission Volunteer Fellowship, and on Visual Aids and Television.<br />

A far-reaching ministry is being realized through extension classes for<br />

Negroes. Such classes have been organized in Austin, Waco, Beaumont, Mexia,<br />

Mission, and Dallas, Texas. Evening classes are conducted for Negroes, also,<br />

here on the Seminary campus. The enrolment in all of these classes is between<br />

four and five hundred. Of course Negroes who are college graduates are admitted<br />

to the regular classes in the Seminary. Dr. Ralph Phelps is directing the<br />

work of these extension classes, as well as the night classes on the campus.<br />

The Seminary faculty—three schools—consists of 42 teachers. We are most<br />

happy in the coming of the following new teachers to the School of Theology:<br />

John P. Newport, associate professor of Philosophy of Religion; W. Boyd Hunt,<br />

associate professor of Theology. We are grateful to T. M. Bennett, a graduate<br />

student, who has rendered valuable assistance in teaching some Old Testament<br />

courses. Likewise are we pleased to welcome to the School of Sacred Music<br />

the following: Nettie Lou Crowder, instructor in Church Music Education;<br />

Gladys Day, assistant professor of Organ; L. Sarle Brown, professor of Voice<br />

and Vocal Pedagogy.<br />

Certain curricula additions reveal an orientation course for students interested<br />

in the chaplaincy and clinical work in Religious Psychology at Mississippi<br />

State Hospital. Major R. Othal Feather, USAR, and Dr. A. Donald Bell are<br />

pioneering in these fields of specialization. Procedure in the School of Theology,<br />

beginning in September, 1953, calls for separate classes for diploma students,


386 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

which will make possible teaching based more specifically on a student s background<br />

and preparation.<br />

All of the above mentioned items do not give the story of the regular program<br />

of instruction carried out each day in the classrooms by the entire corps of<br />

thoroughly trained and scholarly professors. Neither does it tell the story of the<br />

outreach of the Seminary family every week through the almost countless areas<br />

in which they serve—street services, mission classes, preaching.<br />

The tides of evangelism and missions run high. Mission volunteers for<br />

this year total one-fifth of the student body, and during 1952 thirty-eight received<br />

appointment as foreign missionaries, ten as home missionaries.<br />

All in all, the spirit at Southwestern was never better; the prospects never<br />

brighter. To God all the praise and glory.<br />

394 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

WOMAN'S MISSIONARY UNION<br />

MRS. GEORGE R. MARTIN, President<br />

ALMA HUNT, Executive Secretary<br />

If you could have had before you a map of our convention territory so wired<br />

that lights could be turned on to show new organizations coming into being<br />

between October, 1951, and October, 1952, you would have seen the lights come<br />

on at a rate of 20 a day with an additional one turned on in 50 of the 52 weeks.<br />

These 7,350 lights would represent the greatest expansion in organizations yet<br />

to be reported by Woman's Missionary Union. Total organizations on September<br />

30 numbered 65,125. These organizations were made up of 1,127,170 women<br />

and young people organized to study missions, to pray for missions, to give for<br />

the support of missions, and to be missionary. Five fundamentals in our plan<br />

of work guide our members toward these ends:<br />

I. Prayer<br />

The first place in these fundamentals is of course given to prayer, individual<br />

prayer and united prayer. Our members are encouraged to pray daily with their<br />

families in a period of family worship. They are encouraged to pray daily<br />

for missions and for specific missionaries with the Calendar of Prayer as a guide.<br />

Three times a year they are called together for united prayer in behalf of our<br />

denominational mission work. The marked increase in the number of organizations<br />

observing the three seasons of prayer gives the assurance that mission work<br />

within the states, in the convention territory and in foreign lands is undergirded<br />

by an increasing number of our women and young people. Reports show<br />

32,447 organizations observed their state mission season of prayer, 36,922 observed<br />

the Week of Prayer for Home Missions, and 37,261 observed the Week<br />

of Prayer for Foreign Missions.<br />

2. Study<br />

Throughout the year we promoted the study of the missionary message of<br />

the Bible and missions at home and abroad through organization class study,<br />

through Schools of Missions, and through participation in the Correlated Church<br />

Study Course. Preparatory to the Weeks of Prayer for Home and Foreign Missions<br />

we promoted the study of books produced for this purpose by the Home<br />

and Foreign Mission Boards respectively. There were 92,032 classes with 367,213<br />

members engaged in mission study during the year.<br />

Many of these classes were taught by better prepared teachers because of<br />

the 715 Mission Study Institutes which were held during the year.<br />

Women in the societies were brought in touch with missions as they read<br />

missionary books at home—295,233 members having read one or more books according<br />

to this plan.<br />

To give the more avid readers guidance in the selection of books and opportunity<br />

for discussion of them Missionary Round Tables are recommended<br />

for women. Following this pattern Y.W.A. Book Clubs are being formed among<br />

Y.W.A.'s.<br />

3. Stewardship<br />

In the objectives of Woman's Missionary Union our stewardship aim is<br />

stated "to secure the earnest, sympathetic co-operation of women and young<br />

people in giving money for the mission program of the Southern Baptist Convention."<br />

The results of our emphasis on stewardship are reflected in the<br />

year by year increase in the number of tithers, an increase proportionately<br />

greater than our increase in members. There are 371,675 tithers in our organizations,<br />

66,842 of whom signed the stewardship covenant card for the first<br />

time this year. , #<br />

Regular and proportionate giving through the Cooperative Program is given<br />

constant emphasis by Woman's Missionary Union.


WOMAN'S MISSIONARY UNION 395<br />

4. Community Missions<br />

Through a guided community missions program our members are becoming<br />

increasingly aware that missions begins where they are, that their communities<br />

are a part of the world mission task. Community missions provides a challenge<br />

and an opportunity for organizations to survey and plan for meeting the needs<br />

within their associational bounds and for members to participate in missionary<br />

activity. In 1952, 33,595 organizations reported directed community missions.<br />

Two phases of this program of work are chosen each year for special emphasis.<br />

Those for 1952 were Soul-winning Visitation and Alcohol Education.<br />

5. Missionary Education of Young People<br />

Young people are of vital concern to the women in the societies and are a vital<br />

part of Woman's Missionary Union. The societies bear the responsibility of<br />

fostering the organizations for the various age groups. The young people in<br />

these organizations join hands with the women in all phases of W.M.U. activity.<br />

Of the total membership 613,822 are women and 513,348 are young people.<br />

Like the women these young people are engaged in mission study and community<br />

missions; they have monthly stewardship studies and from their number<br />

come nearly one-third the tithers reported; they observe the Weeks of Prayer<br />

and bring their additional offerings for missions. Believing that tomorrow moves<br />

forward on the feet of little children, we are endeavoring to lay foundations of<br />

missionary zeal in young lives.<br />

Publications<br />

Our W.M.U. magazines are the chief sources of our program material and<br />

bring to subscribers month by month missionary information. The circulation<br />

has reached 426, 899 with Royal Service having 243,150, World Comrades 99,500,<br />

Ambassador Life 49,791 and The Window of Y.W.A. 34,458.<br />

In addition to the magazines, Woman's Missionary Union sends out much<br />

printed matter—some free and some priced. The free materials are sent to the<br />

state W.M.U. offices for distribution. The priced materials, in the main, are<br />

handled in the Birmingham office. Receipts of $127,844.59 in 1952 would indicate<br />

an ever-increasing demand for these supplies which aid in the development<br />

of all phases of our missionary activities.<br />

Offerings<br />

We are gratified at the announcement by the Foreign Mission Board that the<br />

1951 Lottie Moon Christmas Offering reached $2,692,799.51. The 1952 Annie<br />

Armstrong Offering for Home Missions was the largest to date $991,484.40.<br />

These offerings are promoted as gifts over-and-above regular contributions<br />

through the Cooperative Program.<br />

The W.M.U. Training School<br />

Nineteen fifty-two was a memorable year in the history of our school. It<br />

brought a re-thinking of our original purpose and a re-defining of it in light of<br />

today's needs. The purpose from its beginning has been "to train missionaries."<br />

This purpose was not altered but new direction was given in an effort to offer<br />

more adequate equipment to those called by God to definite missionary service.<br />

The new direction is not a different direction but rather an expansion of the<br />

original purpose. The curriculum will be enlarged along the lines of missions<br />

and Christian social work.<br />

Other important decisions included enlarging the faculty, opening the school<br />

to men and women, enrolling students without regard to race or nationality, and<br />

changing the name.<br />

Margaret Fund<br />

Through the Margaret Fund, Woman's Missionary Union has the privilege<br />

of aiding in the education of the sons and daughters of regularly appointed<br />

missionaries of our Home and Foreign Boards. At the beginning of the 1952-<br />

53 scholastic year 113 students received scholarships. Of these, five young men<br />

and three young women are receiving missionary training in seminaries. Four


396 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

students are combining their college work with nurses' training, preparing for<br />

mission service. One of the number expects to continue as a medical student.<br />

Headquarters<br />

In 1951 we rejoiced over the securing of an ideally located and wonderf<br />

constructed headquarters building. The end of 1952 found us rejoicing that the<br />

debt on the building would be liquidated in January, 1953. For the comfort of<br />

our headquarters and for the blessings of God on our organization in our efforts<br />

to learn about missions, to pray for missions, to give to missions, we are grateful.<br />

402 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

<strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT<br />

WOMAN'S MISSIONARY UNION TRAINING<br />

SCHOOL<br />

EMILY K. LANSDELL, President<br />

The year 1952 at Woman's Missionary Union Training School has been filled<br />

with problems large and seemingly insurmountable—a year of momentous decisions,<br />

a year of transition, a year of adventurous faith, and yet a year like<br />

other years with consecrated students and staff, classes and examinations, field<br />

work assignments, and the many little things that make our life together.<br />

A changed denominational environment, the lack of accreditation, and the<br />

proposed establishment of a School of Religious Education at Louisville—these<br />

and other factors forced the Board of Trustees of the Training School to rethink<br />

and define again the place of the school in the training of Christian workers.<br />

On February 29, 1952, the trustees recommended that the Training School<br />

begin to enlarge the curriculum along the lines of missions and social work,<br />

that additional professors of highest qualification be secured, steps be taken<br />

to gain accreditation, men be admitted to classes, and the name of the school<br />

be changed. These recommendations were approved by the Advisory Committee<br />

of the Training School, composed of representatives from the Sunday School<br />

Board, the Home Mission Board, the Foreign Mission Board, approved by the<br />

Executive Committee of Woman's Missionary Union and finally approved by<br />

Woman's Missionary Union in annual session on May 12.<br />

The Southern Baptist Convention on May 14 voted to give the Training School<br />

$320,000 for the erection of a new wing which will provide additional offices,<br />

classroom and library space.<br />

During the year Miss Virginia Burke joined the staff as worker at the Good<br />

Will Center and instructor of arts and crafts. Dr. Maxfield Garrott, missionary<br />

to Japan, was a visiting professor. Before the year closed two others accepted<br />

invitations to join the staff—Dr. Hugh Brimm as professor of sociology and<br />

human relations, and Mr. George Carver as professor of missions.<br />

Besides securing additional well-trained faculty members, other steps have<br />

been taken to secure accreditation. Faculty salaries have been raised and a system<br />

of rank and tenure studied. The field work program has been revised, more<br />

supervision provided, and a general orientation to field work offered to first-year<br />

students. Classes added to the curriculum this year are child welfare, arts and<br />

crafts, music in worship and recreation, creative drama as a group work technique,<br />

and a missions seminar where problems of the missionary's task are<br />

studied and discussed by furloughed missionaries, nationals, and student volunteers.<br />

In May of 1952 forty-three students were graduated, thirty-seven receiving<br />

the M.R.E. degree and six the B.R.E. degree. In the fall of 1952 one hundred<br />

thirteen (113) young women lived in the dormitory. In the fall of 1951 the<br />

dormitory enrolment was 101, and in the fall of 1950 there were 87 young<br />

women living in the building. It is particularly gratifying to note the enrolment<br />

has grown in spite of increased charges for room and board. Among the<br />

dormitory students were young women from eighteen states and five foreign<br />

countries.<br />

The school was established in 1907 for the primary purpose of training missionaries,<br />

and in 1912 the Good Will Center, the first of its kind in Southern<br />

Baptist circles, was started by the school to provide a clinic in social work as<br />

well as a service to the community. Although the school is enlarging its curriculum<br />

along the lines of missions and social work, the development will be<br />

gradual, with no sudden departure from the patterns of the past.<br />

The school will continue to offer the degrees of Bachelor of Religious Education<br />

and Master of Religious Education, with general preparation for Christian<br />

workers. However, the program of study will differ from the formal and<br />

classical curriculum of religious education in its stress on understanding people<br />

and the social situation. Those who have already completed the requirements<br />

for the M.R.E. degree at the Training School or have had similar work in an-


_____^OMAN'S MISSIONARY UNION TRAINING SCHOOL 403<br />

work or r 1 i- u * lon ma y take an additional year of specialized study in social<br />

is planned h 10US edu cation, ^ or which the M.S. degree will be given. This course<br />

seas nart' l 03 ^* 36 °f the conviction that many missionaries at home and over-<br />

Center w ^iV , y w °nien, and other denominational workers such as Good Will<br />

ntriP-r ina+'t r ' c hurch social workers, workers in Baptist children's homes and<br />

nnrfI +v,r AT °. ns need a specialized training different from that of the pastor<br />

aim tne eaucational director of a local Baptist church. Such training will empnasize<br />

an awareness and understanding of social situations and problems and<br />

tne Knowledge and techniques of meeting individual and group needs in the<br />

spirit- and power of the Christian gospel. At the same time, the curriculum will<br />

include enough of basic preparation in the study of Bible, religious education,<br />

and related subjects to equip general Christian workers.<br />

v. P ro * g ? :a: ? ;1 °f advanced missionary training is being developed for furloughed<br />

missionaries and overseas missionary candidates. Students who have<br />

already completed the M.R.E. degree in the Training School or similar work in<br />

another institution may be candidates for the M.A. degree, which will be<br />

awarded after an additional year of intensive work designed to equip the missionary<br />

for the task of working with people of other cultures and races. (The<br />

Training School is now open to both men and women students.) In the years<br />

ahead we must continue to push forward with clarity of mind and vision and<br />

with adventurous faith.

FORTY-SIXTH <strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT<br />

BAPTIST BROTHERHOOD<br />

It is with a sense of humility that the Brotherhood Commission presents this<br />

its forty-sixth annual report to the Southern Baptist Convention. We are<br />

humbled that God has blessed the work among our men so marvelously during<br />

the year just past, as the following will reveal.<br />

Acquiring of New Office Building<br />

One significant step taken by the Brotherhood Commission during the past<br />

year was the acquiring of an office building. Purchase of the building was consummated<br />

during the last days of 1951 and occupied early in January, 1952.<br />

The building, ideally located in the city of Memphis, is situated on a 160 ft. lot<br />

facing Poplar Avenue, one of the main thoroughfares of the city. The building<br />

provides sufficient space for the present staff, and when all funds are received<br />

for Capital Needs, the Commission will be enabled to remodel and expand to<br />

make it even more adaptable. The Commission is thankful to Southern Baptists<br />

for the making of the purchase of this building possible through Capital Needs<br />

funds of the Cooperative Program.<br />

Organizations and Enrolment<br />

According to the reports released by the Department of Survey and Statistics,<br />

we learn that during 1952 the number of new Brotherhoods established was<br />

1,051, bringing to a total 6,780 church Brotherhoods in the Southern Baptist<br />

Convention. During the same period enrolment was increased 28,899. Total<br />

enrolment now stands at 214,486. A break-down on these figures reveals that<br />

over 550 new men were enrolled in Brotherhoods for every week during 1952.<br />

Literature Production and Distribution<br />

During the past twelve months the Brotherhood Commission has seen the<br />

circulation of the Brotherhood Journal, major Brotherhood publication published<br />

quarterly, increase in circulation from 55,000 to over 67,000 per quarter. During<br />

the same period the Commission has produced several new tracts dealing with<br />

Brotherhood promotional objectives and organizational problems, and these have<br />

been distributed by the tens of thousands.<br />

Notable during the past year was the release of a new organizational pattern<br />

to enlist young men in the work of their churches. A committee of state Brotherhood<br />

secretaries, working with the executive leadership of the Commission,<br />

produced a booklet entitled "Young Men's Brotherhood" in which suggestions for<br />

organizational pattern, activities, and other helps are made that should prove<br />

to be helpful in the enlistment of our young men, ages 17-24.


BAPTIST BROTHERHOOD 405<br />

Long-Range Goals<br />

it« fifltpJl r0the ?' hood Commission is looking forward to 1957 when it will observ<br />

Jvf th* T anniver sary—the Brotherhood as we know it today having grown out<br />

Lmnr- yi ? ens Missionary Movement as authorized by the Southern Baptist<br />

convention in 1907. Looking forward to this golden anniversary, the Commisin<br />

0 nnn a \ Pr0, L ected lo ng-range promotional goals calling for a minimum total of<br />

IQ'C7 ^urch Brotherhoods and 500,000 men enrolled in the organizations by<br />

19b/. Ihese long-range goals have been adopted by our state Brotherhood<br />

secretaries and with the help of this fine group of leaders, we are sure they will<br />

be achieved. Long range promotional goals also call for an increased circulation<br />

m the Brotherhood Journal to 125,000 per quarter by 1957.<br />

Need of Expansion<br />

Those closely connected with the work of the Brotherhood Commission are<br />

convinced that the Brotherhood is on the threshold of a great new period. Men<br />

of our churches are responding to the practical church and denominationalcentered<br />

program of work as it is being projected and promoted through our<br />

thousands of church Brotherhoods. To keep pace with this interest among our<br />

men, the Brotherhood Commission must enlarge its staff so that it may adequately<br />

produce and meet the needs of an ever-enlarging constituency. To fail<br />

to meet these needs as they come will hinder the work of the Brotherhood movement.<br />

We shall be breaking faith with Brotherhoods and the men who are<br />

enrolled in them. It is the hope of the Brotherhood Commission that the<br />

Southern Baptist Convention will see the needs of this growing movement<br />

among our men and will allocate sufficient funds to care for this organization<br />

which is fast growing to maturity in Southern Baptist life.<br />

Reports from the States<br />

Space will not enable us to present a picture of the growth of the Brotherhood<br />

movement in all our states. We present only a few brief reports so that<br />

we may be enabled to see the trend in Brotherhood work. Similar reports<br />

could be presented from each of the states in the Convention.<br />

ALABAMA—Forrest R. Sawyer, Secretary<br />

Using December 31, 1952, as the retrospective date we find the following<br />

conditions prevailing:<br />

The State Brotherhood Convention with its three officers and pastors' advisory<br />

council is organized and functioning.<br />

The ten districts within our state each have Brotherhood presidents. Each<br />

district is made up of from 5 to 8 associations.<br />

There are 74 associations; 43 have elected associational Brotherhood presidents.<br />

In the 2,650 churches there are now 360 organized Brotherhoods with an<br />

enrolment of approximately 10,000 men.<br />

More gratifying than statistical progress is the desire on the part of our<br />

men to reach higher spiritual horizons, expand the scope of Christianity, and<br />

magnify the church in worship, evangelism, stewardship, education, benevolent<br />

endeavors, and missions.<br />

ARIZONA—Ed Packwood, Secretary<br />

We are finding the progress of the Brotherhood work in Arizona most encouraging.<br />

New Brotherhoods are being organized monthly and our men are<br />

showing unusual interest in the work that is being accomplished.<br />

That our men are responsive to the Brotherhood movement is seen in the<br />

fact that in most churches without Brotherhoods, all the men seem to need is<br />

a "starter"—someone to help them see the function of the Brotherhood and<br />

assist them in the perfecting of an organization.<br />

Western laymen are the aggressive type. I have attended Brotherhood<br />

meetings in which I heard reports of committees—reports in which they gave an<br />

account of the promotion of the projects assigned to them. In each case the<br />

chairman of the committees gave detailed accounts of how their respective groups<br />

were working. The results of their efforts were most encouraging.<br />

I also had the opportunity recently to participate in a Brotherhood meeting<br />

in one of our smaller churches. This group of men had taken as one of their<br />

responsibilities a few months previous the project to enlist the men of their


406 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

church to tithe. That their efforts were successful was seen in the fact that<br />

they had secured tithers who had pledged an amount of more than $10,000 to<br />

the budget of their church when a year ago the church had difficulty in paying<br />

the pastor's salary.<br />

Brotherhood work is progressing rapidly in Arizona. We thank God for what<br />

has been accomplished and look forward to even greater things in the future.<br />

FLORIDA—G. A. Ratterree, Secretary<br />

Brotherhood work in our state is definitely on the march. Every month<br />

brings reports of new Brotherhoods being organized. Our records reveal that<br />

during the past year a total of 65 new church Brotherhoods came into existence.<br />

This brings the total number of active Brotherhoods in Florida to 441. We also<br />

reported two new associational Brotherhoods.<br />

During the year we saw several major Brotherhood events. They included:<br />

Our state Brotherhood convention—attendance at this annual meeting smashed<br />

all previous records. Final registration revealed that more than 1,600 men<br />

attended. Interest of that great host in the Lord's work was most encouraging<br />

and bespeaks the fact that great days lie ahead for the Brotherhood work in<br />

our state.<br />

During the past year we conducted Layman's Rallies in each of our ten<br />

regions. This annual two weeks' tour was conducted in co-operation with the<br />

administration department of our state Baptist work. Attendance at these annual<br />

rallies broke all previous records, and Brotherhood enthusiasm was never<br />

higher.<br />

Our records also reveal that Layman's Day was observed in more of our<br />

churches than in any previous year. This is an indication that our churches are<br />

co-operating in bringing to the attention of our people the challenge of enlisting<br />

men through proper observance of this special day which has been set aside<br />

on our denominational calendar.<br />

LOUISIANA—A. S. Newman, Secretary<br />

Records in our Brotherhood office reveal that we now have 474 church<br />

Brotherhoods, 42 associational, and 10 district organizations. An aggressive<br />

program of Brotherhood endeavor is carried on through these organizations.<br />

The fruits of the efforts being put forth in these Brotherhood units is revealed<br />

in the continued and enlarging interest of the men in the work of their<br />

churches and denomination. Our men are having a very definite part in our<br />

program of "advance" in every phase of the work of the Lord.<br />

In addition to a constant program of Brotherhood promotion in our churches<br />

in Louisiana, our Brotherhood department has undertaken the promotion of an<br />

annual statewide rally of men on Labor Day each year. It is our plan to hold<br />

these rallies at three of our state Baptist institutions. The first was held at<br />

Louisiana College last year, and the attendance was good. This year, 1953, the<br />

rally is to be held at the Acadia Academy. Next year, 1954, it is scheduled to<br />

be held at our Children's Home. The purpose of holding these rallies at<br />

these institutions is to get our men to visit their institutions to see what has<br />

been accomplished with the support they have given these Baptist undertakings.<br />

The Brotherhood work in Louisiana, representing some of the oldest in the<br />

Southern Baptist Convention, is growing at a gratifying rate. Our men are<br />

continuing to respond to the challenge which is offered them for Christian service<br />

through their Brotherhoods. We predict that this interest will continue to grow<br />

during the years to come.<br />

MISSISSIPPI—W. R. Roberts, Secretary<br />

Brotherhood work in Mississippi has definitely become respectable. No state<br />

or denominational leader refers to church organizations without mentioning<br />

Brotherhood. When a prospective pastor is being interviewed by a pulpit<br />

committee, he is questioned about his attitude toward Brotherhood work just as<br />

he is about the Sunday school.<br />

Mississippi raised over one million dollars in 1952 through the Cooperative<br />

Program. God only knows how much credit for that record goes to the men<br />

of the Brotherhoods in our churches. Our men are going all out this year in our<br />

great Stewardship Campaign. Our ultimate objective is to lay upon the hearts<br />

of all our Baptist people their stewardship obligations.<br />

Perhaps one of the greatest contributions that we have made through<br />

Brotherhood has been the Christian fellowship which has been cultivated through<br />

our associational Brotherhood meetings. Over 50 of our 74 associations are

NORTH CAROLINA—H^ c c<br />

x^i.ii^/^—Horace Easom, Secretary<br />

r T l"/ 31 }? 31 / 1 ' 1948 » there were approximately 60 Brotherhoods in North<br />

^aronna. Un January l, 1951, for the first time a budget was adopted for a state<br />

orotnernood department. The new secretary was paid on a basis of devoting<br />

one-halt o± his time to the Brotherhood. This condition prevailed during 1952<br />

and will run to January l, 1954.<br />

Our Brotherhood department has a record of 561 church Brotherhoods. At<br />

present there are 63 associations, out of the 72 in the state, which have from<br />

1 to 37 Brotherhoods. Thus far 32 associational Brotherhoods have been established.<br />

Just now the state Brotherhood secretary is in the midst of organizing new<br />

Brotherhoods and visiting 63 associations. Three things are being done in each<br />

association: First, holding a Brotherhood clinic in an effort to train officers of<br />

Brotherhoods already in existence; second, inviting pastors and groups from<br />

churches which do not have Brotherhoods in an effort to acquaint them with the<br />

work of the organization; third, training men how to properly establish Brotherhoods.<br />

Our aim for 1953 is to achieve the goal of 750 Brotherhoods in North Carolina.<br />

Our Brotherhoods will co-operate in three assemblies this summer: Ridgecrest,<br />

Caswell, and Fruitland. Our activities are in the four major fields of<br />

Evangelism, Stewardship, Cooperative Program, and Boys' Work. A regular<br />

program in these areas is being presented to the Brotherhoods and each is urged<br />

to co-operate in their promotion.<br />

OKLAHOMA—J. A. Pennington, Secretary<br />

Oklahoma is divided into 38 associations. Each of these associations is organized<br />

for Brotherhood work. In January each year we have a conference in<br />

each association for the purpose of presenting to our men the whole program<br />

of Baptist work. We have averaged close to 6,000 men in these meetings for the<br />

last three years.<br />

We have an annual state Brotherhood Convention with an attendance ranging<br />

from 1,200 to 1,500.<br />

In 1952 there were 86 new Brotherhoods organized, making a total of 565<br />

Brotherhoods in the state. We have a long-range goal of 1,000 Brotherhoods<br />

with an enrolment of 50,000 men by 1956, which is the fiftieth anniversary of the<br />

Baptist General Convention of Oklahoma.<br />

In many of our churches the Brotherhood is carrying out a well-planned<br />

program of work. In each the Brotherhood is making a definite contribution to<br />

the advancement of the work of that church.<br />

SOUTH CAROLINA—John A. Farmer, Secretary<br />

A period of six years of Brotherhood work in South Carolina has seen a<br />

growth of 384 new organizations. Beginning -with less than 40 Brotherhoods,<br />

with approximately 2,000 men, our work has grown to over 400 active organizations<br />

with about 14,000 men enrolled.<br />

Through our Brotherhoods, many men have been enlisted as tithers and<br />

givers through the regular channels of their churches. Men have become mission-minded<br />

through church-centered activities and studies in all phases of missions..<br />

Men have become interested in church and denominational programs and<br />

institutions by directed participation in instructive programs and practical<br />

projects. Men have been used in various ways to care for the physical needs of<br />

their pastor. Many boys have been enrolled in Sunday school and brought into<br />

TENNESSEE—E. N. Oelzell, Secretary<br />

Our Brotherhood work is in the pioneer stage. However, its progress compares<br />

favorably with other departments covering the same period of time from<br />

their beginning. Since the Brotherhood Guidebook has come from the press and<br />

has been taught in a great many of state, regional, and associational meetings,<br />

our men are fast coming to realize the difference between a men's club and a<br />

Brotherhood.<br />

The men in Tennessee appreciate the fact that the Brotherhood is to promote<br />

the full program of the church and denomination. With the increased number<br />

of Brotherhoods and the larger enrolment of men in these organizations, we are<br />

finding a renewed interest among the men in our church and denominational life.<br />

This is manifested by a larger attendance of men in our state and associational<br />

meetings. The possibilities for an increase in Brotherhoods organized and men<br />

enrolled are unlimited.<br />

As secretary, I am encouraged in this task by the support of fine pastors<br />

and denominational leaders throughout the state. Our goal in the long-range<br />

program during the next five years, when the Brotherhood movement reaches its<br />

fiftieth anniversary, is to reach 7,000 additional men. We now have 11,000 men<br />

enrolled in our Brotherhoods. Our slogan will be, Eleven now comes seven by '57.<br />

TEXAS—L. H. Tapscott, Secretary<br />

The year 1952 was a busy one for Texas Brotherhoods. Reports have been<br />

received during the year from 1,570 church Brotherhoods. There were 119 new<br />

organizations set up during 1952. Enrolment figures were not available at the<br />

time this report was submitted, but it should be well above the previous year.<br />

Enrolment in our Brotherhoods in 1951 was 49,813.<br />

There is definitely an increase of evangelistic effort among our men. More<br />

and more the men are convinced that being a Christian is an everyday responsibility.<br />

There were 32 Laymen's Revivals held during the year in which laymen<br />

took the lead. During the summer there were 17 District Brotherhood Encampments<br />

or Rallies held with 8,552 men and boys attending.<br />

State Brotherhood officers, 25 in number, including the district Brotherhood<br />

presidents, come together at regular intervals to plan the promotion and further<br />

development of Brotherhood work.<br />

A new feature for the year was the Brotherhood Presidents' Conference<br />

held in Fort Worth in October before the opening session of the state Brotherhood<br />

convention. More than 200 presidents attended. It is planned to make<br />

this an annual feature.<br />

Young Men's Brotherhood was given emphasis during the year with the<br />

result that an increasing number of churches will use this organization to reach<br />

their young men. Our goal for 1953 is 25 new young men's Brotherhoods.<br />

The prospects for 1953 are excellent. All but two of the 119 associations in<br />

the state have an associational Brotherhood president and most of them have a<br />

complete organization. We believe the associational plan of work will greatly<br />

help all phases of Brotherhood promotion.<br />

A Closing Statement<br />

These reports from the states reveal that which was brought to our attention<br />

in the opening paragraphs in which we were informed that the Brotherhood is<br />

entering a great new era of development. Those who have been charged by the<br />

Southern Baptist Convention to guide this work among our men are convinced<br />

that we must capitalize on this great up-surge of interest on the part of our<br />

laymen in the work of their churches and denomination. To fail to do so at<br />

this hour will be doing Christ and his cause, as well as the men and their<br />

churches, a grave injustice. We must lengthen our cords and strengthen our<br />

stakes that we might continue to mobilize our men and channel their talents<br />

and energies through their churches.<br />

This report further reveals that men can and are being enlisted for Christ.<br />

214,486 men are now enrolled in Brotherhoods. In 1957, 500,000; in 1965,<br />

1,000,000 men, and on and on we could go. But as we deal with figures, let us<br />

stop to consider the power contained in this great host of men for Christ. When<br />

we do, we can readily see that, with the enlistment of our men, we are beginning<br />

to see a new day on the horizon in the life of our denomination. Let us use our<br />

men—the men that Christ has placed at our disposal in our thousands of<br />

churches to give to this world the saving message of our Lord and Saviour.<br />

To have a part in the enlistment of our men and the accomplishment of this<br />

major worldwide task, the Brotherhood Commission dedicates itself anew and<br />

afresh.

410 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

REPORT OF THE<br />

EDUCATION COMMISSION<br />

R. ORIN CORNETT, Executive Secretary<br />

Among significant developments of the 1952-53 academic year for Southern<br />

Baptist educational institutions were the following:<br />

1. Reversal of the trend toward lower enrolments.<br />

2. A growing emphasis upon co-operative planning and co-ordinated effort<br />

within state groups of Baptist colleges.<br />

3. Approval, by the Executive Committee of the Southern Baptist Convention,<br />

of an annual convention-wide emphasis on Christian education, beginning<br />

in April, 1954.<br />

4. Increasing financial support from state Baptist conventions.<br />

5. An impending serious shortage of fully-qualified Baptist candidates for<br />

faculty positions.<br />

6. Continued rising costs of operation, despite efforts to trim expense.<br />

Construction continued throughout the year on the new campus of Wake<br />

Forest College at Winston-Salem, North Carolina, where the institution is expected<br />

to move in late 1954 or early 1955. Furman University and Howard<br />

College announced convention-approved plans for the building of complete, new<br />

campuses. Substantial gifts and grants were announced by the University of<br />

Richmond, Furman University, Baylor University, and Oklahoma Baptist University.<br />

Baylor University announced projected plans for a ten-year, fiftymillion-dollar<br />

campaign for funds for new buildings and endowment. Florida<br />

Baptists voted a goal of five million dollars for Stetson University for the next<br />

ten years. Many Southern Baptist educational institutions announced plans<br />

for new buildings and additions to curriculum.<br />

A survey of the eight colleges and one academy of Texas Baptists was carried<br />

out by a nine-man committee of Baptist educators from outside the state, under<br />

the direction of the staff of the Education Commission. As a result of the survey,<br />

a Texas Baptist Commission on Christian Education was set up and plans organized<br />

for a program of co-operation and mutual promotion among the nine<br />

institutions. The Department of Christian Education of Kentucky Baptists entered<br />

an arrangement with the Southern Baptist Convention Education Commission<br />

providing for the joint employment of Mr. Ben C. Fisher by the two<br />

organizations beginning January 1, 1953. The Georgia Baptist Commission on<br />

Education, organized following the November, 1952, state convention session,<br />

contracted with the Education Commission for a comprehensive survey and a<br />

program of reimbursed services beginning June 1, 1953. The third state-wide<br />

survey of Baptist colleges and schools under the auspices of the _ Education<br />

Commission was requested by the Mississippi Baptist Convention in its November,<br />

1952, session. This survey was begun in March, 1953, and scheduled<br />

for completion early in May.<br />

The following were added to the roster of presidents of Southern Baptist<br />

colleges and schools: Dr. Harold K. Graves, Golden Gate Theological Seminary;<br />

Dr. W. A. Miller, University of Corpus Christi; W. Stuart Rule, Harrison-<br />

Chilhowee Baptist Academy; Dr. A. C. Gettys, acting president of Mary<br />

Hardin-Baylor College (following the resignation of Dr. Gordon S. Singleton,<br />

who joined the faculty of Baylor University); Arthur House Stainback, Baptist<br />

Bible Institute; Dr. Carey T. Vinzant, Bessie Tift College, and Dr. R. Kelly<br />

White, Belmont College.<br />

Dr. Annie D. Denmark, president of Anderson College for twenty-five years,<br />

and Dr. Spright Dowell, president of Mercer University for a slightly longer<br />

period, announced plans to retire, Dr. Denmark on June 1, Dr. Dowell on August<br />

31. Dr. Elmer F. Haight, professor of religion at Furman University, was<br />

named to succeed Dr. Denmark. .<br />

The number of ministerial students in the colleges, seminaries, and academies<br />

increased to an all-time high of 8,993. Veteran enrolments continued their<br />

decrease. The number of faculty and staff members decreased slightly, but indications<br />

are that this trend is in process of reversal.<br />

The most significant feature of the Convention-wide emphasis on Christian<br />

education in April, 1954, is a plan to place a new responsibility upon adults in


EDUCATION COMMISSION 411<br />

school a^L ptlst churches—the responsibility for active guidance of our high<br />

SnecifipJTlL y ^ ng P e °Ple in the matter of choice of and preparation for college.<br />

OoiiTiiplHn^ n g0al of this emphasis will be the establishment of a College<br />

eamWd t ^ om ittee in each church. The committee will be trained and<br />

^€ full approval and support of the Executive Committee of the Southern<br />

Baptist convention has been promised for the April, 1954, Christian education<br />

emphasis. All departments of the Baptist Sunday School Board which can<br />

appropriately assist have given assurance that their publications will be used<br />

more extensively than ever before. We solicit the hearty response and active<br />

participation of all Southern Baptists in this effort to achieve a new level of<br />

personal interest in Baptist young people everywhere. These boys and girls of<br />

today, men and women of tomorrow, constitute the richest vein of precious ore<br />

in God's great kingdom. Let us turn to them with deeper interest, greater<br />

understanding, more helpful counsel, and unselfish devotion.<br />

418 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

<strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT OF<br />

THE RADIO COMMISSION<br />

DUPREE JORDAN, Acting Director<br />

Southern Baptists all over the world were shocked and saddened by the<br />

passing of Dr. S. F. Lowe on October 4, 1952. The pioneer spirit and vision of<br />

this great soul has served and will continue to serve as a great inspiration to<br />

countless Christian workers in many areas. Indeed Dr. Sam Lowe will continue<br />

to live in the hearts of Christian people everywhere. His life was marked by a<br />

courageous expression of his convictions, and his marvellous faith was demonstrated<br />

by his last words, spoken to his wife: "God's grace is sufficient."<br />

Radio Beginnings<br />

Dr. Lowe led Southern Baptists into the field of radio back in 1938. It was<br />

during that year that the first radio committee was appointed to study the<br />

possibility of regular radio broadcasts for our Convention. Dr. Lowe was then<br />

pastor of Inman Park Baptist Church in Atlanta, and the challenge of religious<br />

broadcasting was a heavy burden upon his heart. Seeing the opportunities<br />

in the broadcasting field, he was anxious for Southern Baptists to seize them<br />

and use them to the glory of God, presenting the good news of the gospel of<br />

Christ on the air.<br />

With a very meager knowledge of radio, but impelled by an overwhelming<br />

vision, and the leadership of the Holy Spirit, Dr. Lowe urged our Baptist leadership<br />

to consider the challenge of radio. At the same time, Dr. Lowe began to<br />

familiarize himself with the field, learning all he could about the needs and<br />

techniques for presenting the gospel on the air.<br />

At the outset, there was a great deal of very frank and outspoken opposition<br />

to Dr. Lowe's suggestions. Many felt that radio was a plaything, and that it<br />

would be almost sacrilegious to use mission money in that channel.<br />

Growth of the Medium<br />

But the challenge was great at that time, and the opportunities in this field<br />

have continued to grow through the years. In 1938 we had only 18 states<br />

in our Southern Baptist Convention, with a total membership of only 4,470,000.<br />

Today we have work in some 35 states with almost 8.000,000 Southern Baptists.<br />

In 1938 there were 320 radio stations in our territory, and no television.<br />

Broadcasting has grown so that men in the industry now use the slogan: "Whereever<br />

you go there's Radio." This statement is literally true. There are more<br />

than three thousand radio stations broadcasting in the United States at the<br />

present time, and more are being constructed at a very rapid rate. In this<br />

country alone, there are some 110 million radio receiving sets in use. More<br />

radios than automobiles, bath tubs, and even toothbrushes! And nearly ten<br />

million new radio receivers are being manufactured and distributed each year!<br />

When we think of the breath-taking development of television, again we are<br />

overwhelmed. Right now, there are some 150 television stations on the air in<br />

this country, with more under construction. Since the Federal Communications<br />

Commission removed the application and construction ban last year, more than<br />

1,100 applications for new stations have been filed. These applications are being<br />

granted as rapidly as possible. Within five to ten years, it has been estimated,<br />

there will be as many as five thousand television stations in this country.<br />

Twenty-five million television receiving sets are in American homes right now,<br />

and ten million additional receivers are being manufactured and distributed<br />

every year.<br />

Power and Influence<br />

Not only is the broadcasting industry vast and influential in its scope, but<br />

millions of dollars are poured into radio and television every month of the year<br />

Businessmen, previously reluctant, are adopting a new or increased budget for


RADIO COMMISSION 419<br />

radio and television, knowing the investment will bring tremendous dividends.<br />

During 1952, national advertisers spent some 350 million dollars on the<br />

major radio and television networks that serve the nation as a whole. We<br />

emphasize national, because that represents only a small portion of the total<br />

outlay. Actually the majority of radio and television advertising in this country<br />

is done on a local basis, by local advertisers. The manager of the oldest and<br />

most powerful radio and television outlets in Atlanta has estimated that, all<br />

told, some one billion dollars was spent for radio and television advertising<br />

during 1952.<br />

And the pity is that always among the top advertisers are the men peddling<br />

alcoholic beverages and tobacco!<br />

Even in 1938 the challenge of gospel broadcasting was a great burden on the<br />

heart of Dr. Sam F. Lowe. His vision could not be blurred, his zeal could not<br />

be chilled, and in spite of all the obstacles thrown in his path, he continued to<br />

proclaim the virtues of gospel broadcasting. Little by little, Dr. Lowe began<br />

to win over the leadership of our Baptist people.<br />

The Baptist Hour<br />

The going continued slow for a long time. But by 1941, Southern Baptists<br />

were ready to put on the air a series of 13 evangelistic broadcasts called the<br />

Baptist Hour.<br />

These first broadcasts were not widely heard, but they were most enthusiastically<br />

received. This fine response led the Convention to expand the Baptist Hour<br />

the following year.<br />

Twice as many stations carried the series of 13 programs in 1942. And from<br />

that point the Baptist Hour has continued to grow little by little each year. By<br />

the spring of 1949 there were more than seventy stations carrying the Baptist<br />

Hour one or two quarters each year.<br />

Transcribed Programs<br />

In addition to this, our Radio Commission has built up a transcription library<br />

of some twenty thousand 16-inch records, with a variety of recorded programs,<br />

including 15-minute devotional programs, 30-minute evangelistic services,<br />

dramatic broadcasts, Christian home programs, Christmas programs, musical<br />

programs, Bible study programs, and others. These recordings have been used<br />

extensively all over the nation. And they are still in regular use in many, many<br />

areas all over this country and even around the world.<br />

In 1944 the Southern Baptist Convention accepted the Radio Committee as<br />

a permanent agency of the Convention, and changed the name to the Radio<br />

Commission, giving Dr. Lowe the full-time responsibility of director of the<br />

Commission.<br />

In the fall of 1949, in a bold venture of faith, the Radio Commission launched<br />

a year-round Baptist Hour. Beginning on October 2, 1949, the first program<br />

was heard through the network facilities of the American Broadcasting Company,<br />

being carried by some 120 stations across the nation. The first of July, 1950,<br />

the live network broadcast was discontinued, and the Baptist Hour was put on<br />

a transcribed basis.<br />

Since the first Sunday of 1951, Charles Wellborn has been our regular Baptist<br />

Hour speaker. From the group of some 150 stations carrying the transcriptions<br />

each week at that time, the Baptist Hour has now grown to more than 330<br />

stations, covering 28 states and 7 foreign countries. The Baptist Hour audience<br />

is now estimated at some four million actual listeners each week, with a potential<br />

audience of well over one hundred million.<br />

Hours on the Air<br />

An attempt to estimate accurately the number of broadcast hours that Southern<br />

Baptists have used during the past twelve years would be most difficult.<br />

With over 330 stations carrying the 30-minute Baptist Hour every week, it is<br />

obvious that Southern Baptists are using from eight to ten thousand hours on<br />

the air every year with this one program alone. In addition, several thousand<br />

hours each year would be filled with the Good News Hour, produced by the Radio<br />

Commission for Dr. J. B. Lawrence and the Home Mission Board, and with the<br />

various other transcribed programs our Commission has available.


420 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Television<br />

More and more television is occupying a place of tremendous importance in<br />

the work and planning of our Radio and Television Commission. For the past<br />

twelve months our Commission has had a full-time television director.<br />

Much study and research has been devoted to television, and already our<br />

activities in television have begun, though on a limited scale. Our commission<br />

has been presenting a weekly live telecast on WSB-TV since July of 1952.<br />

There has been an excellent response to these programs and we have gained<br />

much experience which will be of invaluable aid in future television work.<br />

During 1952, our Commission made two 15-minute television films, which<br />

have been shown in almost every television city across our nation during the<br />

past several months. Other investigations have been made in this field, and we<br />

are studying the possibility of producing several additional films during 1953.<br />

Southern Baptists will be on the N.B.C. television network for the 30-minute<br />

Frontiers of Faith program Sunday, July 12, 1953, and it is believed that similar<br />

opportunities will soon be provided on C.B.S. Lamp Unto My Feet program, and<br />

on the Dumont television network.<br />

Successful religious telecasts all over the nation have been studied very<br />

carefully by our Commission, from which we have utilized the best ideas and<br />

prepared a number of sample formats. These are available for distribution to<br />

any local pastor or station that would like to adapt them to their local situation.<br />

Our Commission hopes to expand this service, creating more and more good<br />

ideas for use on local stations.<br />

A recent meeting of the Television Committee of our Radio Commission voted<br />

to begin production immediately on three separate series of television films. One<br />

will be a series of dramatic programs on the Christian Home, the second will be<br />

a series of Bible stories for children, and the third will be a series of worship<br />

programs made up primarily of sermon and song. From six to thirteen programs<br />

will be filmed in each of these three series as a beginning, and prints of those<br />

films should be available for general distribution sometime this fall.<br />

Workshops<br />

During all of 1953, we are conducting a number of radio and television<br />

workshops in a number of cities all over our Convention territory. We have<br />

already held a number of these clinics, and additional conferences for the remainder<br />

of the year have already been planned. The Sunday School Board is<br />

allowing us the privilege of sharing Music Week with them at the summer assemblies<br />

at Ridgecrest and Glorieta. We hope to have a good attendance for<br />

both of these weeks of study, as well as for the one-day local programs.<br />

All of these meetings are planned and presented to show pastors how they can<br />

best ultilize the tremendous potential of radio and television for giving the good<br />

news of the gospel to the greatest number of people. In this connection we would<br />

like to express our sincere thanks to the many pastors and local groups all over<br />

the country that are doing such an excellent job in local radio and television religious<br />

programming.<br />

Other Work<br />

Even with the multitude of detail that goes into the production and presentation<br />

of the Baptist Hour, the transcription work of our Commission, and now our<br />

television activities, our Radio and Television Commission performs many other<br />

services for Southern Baptists. Being the official radio agency of the Convention,<br />

work is performed for all of the various boards, agencies, and institutions.<br />

This may be the regular production and distribution of a complete weekly<br />

broadcast, such as the Good News Hour, done for the Home Mission Board, or<br />

it may be simply the preparation of phonograph records, film strips or slides.<br />

Regardless of the project, our Radio and Television Commission, without profit,<br />

utilizes the best of equipment and technical knowledge and ability. The<br />

facilities of Baptist Radio Center in Atlanta are available to any local group,<br />

state convention, or to anyone who can and will use them effectively.<br />

It is hard to imagine all of the ways in which radio can help the cause of<br />

Christ and especially the evangelistic program of Southern Baptists. Radio can<br />

emotionalize, vitalize, and personalize the Cooperative Program. Radio can<br />

unite our Baptist program and people all over the nation. Radio can help<br />

.strengthen our Baptist fellowship from ocean to ocean. Radio can help identify


RADIO COMMISSION 421<br />

all Southwide causes with local Baptist activity and responsibility. The power<br />

of radio far exceeds the imagination of man.<br />

Work at Radio Center<br />

Baptist Radio Center, a three-story building in the Druid Hills section of<br />

Atlanta, is the home of our Radio and Television Commission. The operation of<br />

the Center is a large and complex business, with many activities taking place at<br />

all times. Everyone has a job to perform, and everyone does his job to the<br />

very best of his ability.<br />

All mail requests, prayer requests, and personal problems are given special<br />

attention, and are answered promptly. Wherever possible, all problem situations<br />

are followed up by referring the individual to a local Baptist pastor, and<br />

by contacting a local minister about the various personalities who write us.<br />

All orders for printed messages, for records, or program transcriptions are<br />

handled promptly. The Commission prints from five to ten thousand copies of<br />

all Baptist Hour messages. Regular publicity material is sent to all of our<br />

state Baptist papers and to our Southwide publications, as well as to several<br />

national magazines.<br />

Regular news releases are sent to approximately 2,300 pastors throughout<br />

our Convention territory. Through them our Commission endeavors to keep its<br />

work before all of our people through their local newspapers and other local<br />

agencies, such as church bulletins of the individual pastors. The Baptist Radio<br />

Beam is published semi-monthly to help keep all of our people informed of the<br />

activities of our organization.<br />

Results<br />

The efforts of Southern Baptists are richly rewarded, though! Baptist Radio<br />

Center receives thousands of letters each week, telling of the good that has been<br />

accomplished by putting the gospel on the air. Word is received regularly<br />

from individuals who have been saved as a direct result of hearing God's Word<br />

over their radios, from persons who have had a friend or loved one completely<br />

changed as a result of one of the Commission's broadcasts, or of a family that<br />

has been brought back together after listening to the Baptist Hour, or of some<br />

other very dramatic and beneficial change.<br />

Letters come from college students, telling how life has been enriched on their<br />

campuses because individuals have listened to the Baptist Hour. Word comes<br />

from pastors, Sunday school superintendents, Training Union directors, and<br />

others all over our Convention, telling how the radio ministry has helped build<br />

up interest in all of the activities of their local church. Cards come from friends<br />

of other denominations, and from those with no church affiliation, telling how<br />

their lives have been made over, and how their families have been blest through<br />

Southern Baptists' broadcasts.<br />

In every way possible our Radio and Television Commission is striving to<br />

strengthen every activity of the Convention. We are striving always to undergird<br />

every program and purpose of Southern Baptists, carrying the good news<br />

of the gospel of Christ unto the ends of the earth.<br />

Reviewing the past 14 years, we can see that a great deal of progress has<br />

been made. Beginning with a budget of only $200 in 1938, our Radio Commission<br />

will be receiving $125,000 from the Cooperative Program in 1953. Even this<br />

latter figure would not begin to care for the radio and television activities of<br />

Southern Baptists' broadcasts.<br />

Hour will contribute a like amount directly to the Commission, since they are<br />

allowed by the Convention to contribute to this radio ministry in this manner.<br />

Certainly we are willing to admit that there are many problems to be faced<br />

in this field of religious broadcasting each and every day. There will always be<br />

difficulties involved in our work, as well as that of all of our Southwide agencies<br />

and institutions. But through the grace of God, and with the growing support<br />

of our Southern Baptist people, our Radio and Television Commission is turning<br />

obstacles into useful implements, and moving forward in a marvelous way.<br />

Anyone who doubts the worth-whileness of this great missionary enterprise<br />

should visit with the staff at Radio Center, read the mail which comes in every<br />

day, and study the results that these programs have produced all across the na-


422 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

tion, and around the world. We are thoroughly convinced that anyone who is<br />

willing to look at all phases of our work, and see what is accomplished through<br />

our activities, will be convinced that Southern Baptists can do no better than<br />

invest their money in gospel broadcasting!<br />

FORTY-FIFTH <strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT<br />

THE SOCIAL SERVICE COMMISSION<br />

J. B. WEATHERSPOON, Chairman<br />

A. C. MILLER, Executive Secretary<br />

The Social Service Commission has made many changes within the past year.<br />

Dr. Hugh Brimm resigned as the executive secretary effective December 31, 1952.<br />

His successor began his work on January 1, 1953. Before either of these changes<br />

was contemplated, the Commission in its annual meeting at Ridgecrest in August<br />

had voted unanimously to move the headquarters office from Louisville to Nashville<br />

and to recommend to this convention that the name of the Social Service<br />

Commission be changed to The Christian Life Commission.<br />

The office of the Commission is now established in Room 414 of the Executive<br />

Building of the Sunday School Board at 161 Eighth Avenue, North, in Nashville.<br />

Dr. Holcomb and members of his staff have been generous to receive us into their<br />

already crowded buildings. They have made our rooms attractive by a complete<br />

renovation. We are indebted to the Sunday School Board for this office space<br />

without rental cost to our Commission.<br />

In this forty-fifth year of service by this Commission it is becoming that we<br />

pause for a moment to pay our respects to the men who have led it. Dr. W. L.<br />

Poteat was its first chairman. His spiritual vision and knowledge of public affairs<br />

led to the inauguration of this Commission. The years that have followed<br />

have revealed the wisdom of his leadership. Dr. Poteat was followed by the<br />

diligent and courageous A. J. Barton whose work did much to mold public<br />

opinion that resulted in the 18th Amendment to the Federal Constitution.^ Dr.<br />

Barton was succeeded by Dr. J. B. Weatherspoon who is the present chairman<br />

of this Commission. Under his leadership the Commission has entered the whole<br />

field of the social responsibility of the Christian. In 1947 he led the convention<br />

to provide an operating budget and to establish an office for more effective work.<br />

Dr. Hugh Brimm was chosen as the first executive secretary. After five years of<br />

able and devoted service he resigned to accept a place on the faculty of Woman's<br />

Missionary Union Missionary Training School at Louisville.<br />

Statement of Approach and Viewpoint<br />

In this report we shall digress somewhat from the nature and content of<br />

previous reports. We shall here seek to make clear our viewpoint in the work of<br />

this Commission and the principles on which we will proceed.<br />

Paul Ramsay in his recent book on Basic Christian Ethics states in his opening<br />

sentence, "The first thing to be said concerning Christian Ethics is that it<br />

can not be separated from its religious foundations." There are many others who<br />

agree with this viewpoint. Robert J. McCracken of New York City writes in a<br />

recent book, "The primary task of the church is to preach first and foremost a<br />

gospel of moral and spiritual regeneration. It begins with the inside of the cup;<br />

it begins with the building up of character and then proceeds to the improvement<br />

of external conditions."<br />

It is imperative to change the individual but we must not stop there. Wilberforce<br />

asks, "Shall we rescue individual slaves and leave the slavery system intact?"<br />

Another asks, "Shall we reclaim individual drunkards and do nothing<br />

about the liquor traffic?" In that graphic description of the last judgment<br />

recorded by Matthew, Jesus clearly warns us against the neglect of our social<br />

responsibilities. After he had divided the people on the basis^ of their spiritual<br />

relationship to him, he judged them on the basis of the social fruits of their<br />

faith. "I was hungry and ye gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me<br />

drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and ye clothed me,<br />

I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me." Shall<br />

Christian citizens have nothing to say to their government when it destroys<br />

food to enhance profits while millions of their fellowmen die of _starvation? While<br />

thousands languish in prison shall we do nothing about the immoral conditions<br />

in society that placed them there? , .<br />

Long enough we have lived in a guilded haven of spiritual privilege sealed<br />

off from the world because of our unholy fears that we might become a part of<br />

used true it. Yet that in connection there when are one many with mentions Christian among the us term teaching who in are this and afraid connection practice. of the he very In is liable fact term it to is social be too branded<br />

often when


SOCIAL SERVICE COMMISSION 427<br />

as a liberal or a modernist or even as an infidel. Such opinions are the result of<br />

a very limited understanding of the full import of the gospel and of the whole<br />

Christian message as revealed in the Bible. We have only ourselves to blame for<br />

these limitations in Christian knowledge among our people. Through the years<br />

we have given only a partial emphasis to the full gospel. We have preached with<br />

fervent urgency the necessity of the new birth, but we have not proclaimed with<br />

proportionate emphasis the moral responsibilities of the new life.<br />

Even in denominations like ours that put a strong emphasis on spiritual religion<br />

there is a woeful lack of the social fruits of religion in the lives of our<br />

people. In spite of our growth in membership, the increase in our gifts, and<br />

the vast expansion of our material facilities, we are grieved by the moral laxity<br />

of our people on every hand. We are shamed by the parade of evil in our<br />

streets. We are appalled at the increasing number of homes broken by divorce<br />

or desertion. We stand aghast at the waste and ruin of lives by alcohol. We are<br />

indignant at the invasion of our homes by the bold and deceiving advertisements<br />

of the liquor interests. We tremble at the threatened loss of our liberties when<br />

political expediency expels justice and the constitutional privileges of our citizens<br />

are denied.<br />

I. WHAT IS THE WORK OF THE SOCIAL SERVICE COMMISSION?<br />

Two questions are frequently asked us by interested people. One is, "What is<br />

the work of the Social Service Commission?" The other is, "How do you propose<br />

to get it done?" We shall endeavor to answer these two questions in the rest of<br />

this report.<br />

Let us say to begin with that the work of the Commission was begun to<br />

develop within our people an awareness of the ethical content of the gospel and<br />

the social responsibilities of the Christian life. In the rapid growth and expansion<br />

of Southern Baptist life we have from time to time become obsessed<br />

with a few phases of the gospel which happen to appeal to us and which are<br />

in themselves basic and vital to the Christian. But we have been so contented<br />

with these partial phases of the Christian message that we have neglected<br />

other phases which Jesus included in his teaching of the Kingdom of God. This<br />

neglect has weakened us with a sickness which some have called the paralysis<br />

of the partial. A strong and vigorous spiritual health will return to us only<br />

when we accept the full meaning of the Christian message for the total life of<br />

man. To meet this vital need the Social Service Commission was inaugurated<br />

arid its field of work was committed to it by this convention in the following<br />

words. "The Social Service Commission shall seek to promote morality in human<br />

relations, including the problems of marriage and the family, crime and juvenile<br />

delinquency, industrial relations, race relations, the alcohol problem, and other<br />

matters of social morality which press upon our people for a solution."<br />

Marriage and the Family<br />

The first of these assignments to us by this Convention is that of marriage and<br />

the family. Some will say at once that this is a duplication since other agencies<br />

of the denomination are at work in this field. The Sunday School Board has Dr.<br />

Joe W. Burton with a fine staff of workers. The Home Mission Board has recently<br />

secured Dr. Leland Waters for full time work with juvenile delinquents. The<br />

Student Department has done yoeman's service in this area for a number of<br />

years. The Social Service Commission has developed the Home Life Conference<br />

for churches, encampments, and other groups. Surely we will agree that this<br />

field is too big and the needs are too many and varied to be adequately met by<br />

any single agency.<br />

Furthermore, each agency at work in this field will approach it from a different<br />

angle and will make its distinctive contribution to it. The Social Service<br />

Commission, for instance, will approach this study from the viewpoint of the<br />

social sciences as well as that of the Scriptures. The Commission will compile<br />

statistics relating to divorce, juvenile delinquency, health and housing, and to<br />

other related subjects. This information will be available to any and all the other<br />

agencies that may desire it.<br />

The Child in our Midst<br />

Growing out of the vital area of home and family life is the problem pf the<br />

dependent child in our midst. It was Wendell Phillips who said, "The future of<br />

our race marches forward on the feet of little children." Much of our compassion<br />

and concern today is for these dependent children who are becoming so numerous


428 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

among us. The Commission is giving its annual meeting at Ridgecrest this summer<br />

to conferences on our work among these children. We have invited the<br />

executive heads of our twenty-three children's homes in the South to be with us.<br />

borne ot them will appear on our program. Leading men and women in this<br />

held will conduct our conferences. Any and all of our people are urgently invited<br />

to attend this meeting August 19 through 21.<br />

Crime and Delinquency<br />

_ The second phase of service committeed to us by this Convention is that of<br />

crime and delinquency. According to J. Edgar Hoover one hundred million<br />

Americans will be the victims of crime within the span of their lifetime. More<br />

Americans will be the victims of murder during the next generation than lost<br />

their lives by enemy gunfire in World War II. Within the eight-year period<br />

between 1943-1951 the number of crimes in America increased more than half a<br />

million. In 1951 a major crime was committed every sixteen seconds of the<br />

day and night. In the same year there were approximately 350,000 children who<br />

came to the attention of the juvenile courts.<br />

This frightful harvest in crime and moral delinquency is cultivated by immoral<br />

conditions within our communities. If we are ever to do anything at all to<br />

change these conditions the Christian people of our churches must get into action<br />

as responsible citizens. Our church members take one of three positions in their<br />

community: (1) Some yield to society as they find it either to become helpless<br />

victims of it or willing conformists to it. (2) Others separate themselves from<br />

their communities m at least two ways. One is for them to withdraw into the<br />

exclusive fellowship of their churches and refuse to have anything to do with<br />

people or with other interests outside their own group. The other way is that<br />

they will move out of their community in search of a better one in the hope to<br />

gam by flight what they have not the courage to fight for. (3) A third group<br />

among our church members accept their duty as responsible Christian citizens<br />

and work faithfully for the spiritual, moral, social, and civic betterment of<br />

their community.<br />

Industrial Relations<br />

# Another phase of our work is in the area of industrial relations. The South<br />

is fast becoming an industrial empire. This economic development is bringing to<br />

us new problems with which we are little familiar. We dare not say that these<br />

3wo e fW% 0f f 0U +l C ?^ Cer 5' JeS TT s ? hrist is in t er ested in every movement<br />

and force that effects the life of man. He has much to offer both the employer and<br />

employee that will bring industrial peace and progress in keeping- with God's<br />

first commission to man.<br />

Race Relations<br />

Still another area of our work is that of race relations.<br />

The Christian approach to this subject must take into account three fundamental<br />

considerations. One of these is the recognition of the dignity and worth<br />

of man created in the image of God. Another is the place provided for Ivery<br />

S^God. P thlrd iS that eVGry man is included in the love<br />

In the light of these Scriptural teachings we should examine the political<br />

economic, and civic patterns of behaviour in our relations with people of al<br />

groups. There are politicians who deliberately play upon racial prejudice for<br />

their own profit and power. In the industrial world there are men who take<br />

advantage of race distinctions in the payment of wages and in other business<br />

dealings for their own profit. Do we in our attitudes and acts follow these or<br />

similar patterns of conduct, or do we follow Christ who never made chattel of anv<br />

people nor sought to use them to his own advantage?<br />

Suicide by Alcohol<br />

The problem of alcohol is another phase of the work assigned this Commission<br />

by the convention. Several years ago Samuel Zane Batten wrote a book under<br />

the title, // America Fail. In his closing chapter were these words: "Nations are<br />

not destroyed by causes from without; they perish from causes within. Nations<br />

do not die; they commit suicide." The enemy that poses the greatest threat<br />

to the peace and security of our country is alcohol. It claims an undeserved


SOCIAL SERVICE COMMISSION 429<br />

place of honor in the economic life of our nation because it pays large revenues.<br />

But for every dollar of liquor revenue received we pay ten dollars for crime,<br />

wrecks, and liquor damage. Added to this bill is widespread moral degeneracy<br />

and ruin of life for which liquor is responsible.<br />

Beer is the greatest cause of drunkenness, the greatest killer on our highways,<br />

and the greatest cause of crime among our youth. Yet the announced goal of the<br />

brewing industry is for beer to be used in every home. In urging more vigorous<br />

advertising and selling, a liquor publisher says, "If beer is used in every home,<br />

the industry need never fear adverse legislation. No one would dare legislate<br />

against something all Americans use."<br />

There appears to be little hope for us to overcome the evils of alcoholism<br />

as long as we put our sole trust in legal measures and regulation. The education<br />

of our people from babyhood to the grave on the insidious evils of drink is necessary<br />

to any adequate solution. As convictions are formed against it, we must<br />

devise methods of action to drive this flagrant evil from us and to set in the gate<br />

a flaming sword so that it can never return.<br />

Your Commission offers its services to every church and to every force in<br />

the field to fight for the destruction of this peril which is leading so many of our<br />

citizens to their death and our nation to its suicide.<br />

National and World Issues<br />

Your Commission will continue to co-operate with our joint Committee on<br />

Public Affairs at Washington under the leadership of Dr. J. M. Dawson. We offer<br />

to him and to his committee our full support.<br />

There are issues within our nation and throughout the world on which our<br />

people must be better informed and girded for action. One of these issues lies<br />

in the ominous fact that the freedom of religion in the United States is in danger<br />

of being lost to us. This danger comes from several sources. We mention three.<br />

One is our failure to teach our people the Scriptural foundations of religious<br />

liberty. Another is the persistent attack by the Roman Catholic hierarchy on<br />

the American principle of the separation of church and state. A third is that<br />

frequently there are leaders in high and responsible places who act on political<br />

expediency instead of constitutional law and principle. It is appropriate to add<br />

here that the persistent pressure for the appointment by the President of the<br />

United States of an ambassador to the Vatican State ignores the majority<br />

opinion of the responsible citizens of our country. It would be an entering wedge<br />

to the union of church and state and would betray the cause of religious freedom.<br />

Another issue that we as Christians must keep alive is that of peace among<br />

the nations. Neither the so-called cold war, nor the threat of communism, nor<br />

militaristic ambitions for armed might, nor the fear of being called unpatriotic<br />

must be allowed to intimidate us nor prevent us from praying and speaking and<br />

working for peace in the name of the Prince of Peace.<br />

II. HOW WE PROPOSE TO DO OUR WORK<br />

Your Commission realizes the difficulties to be met in the assignment given to<br />

it by this convention. The broad expanse of our territory and the rapid increase<br />

in the numbers of our churches with their approximately seven million members<br />

offer a difficulty which appears to be insurmountable. Harold E. Ingraham of<br />

our Sunday School Board often says, "It takes a long time to say hello to<br />

Southern Baptists." This is particularly true when we are dealing with a subject<br />

on which so many of our people are not on speaking terms. But as our people<br />

come to understand the basic Christian approach to this work and the methods<br />

for its promotion we believe without a doubt that our Southern Baptist fellowship<br />

will give us their full co-operation, their prayers, and their united support.<br />

Committees within the Commission<br />

In its annual meeting at Ridgecrest last August the Commission considered<br />

the advisability of dividing its membership into committees to whom special<br />

phases of its work would be assigned. These committees will be asked to do research<br />

work and writing for the particular field of work given to them. They<br />

will bring their findings and recommendations to the annual meeting of the<br />

Commission and at such other times as may be necessary. These committees<br />

may wish to ask others within our fellowship to create material or bring reports<br />

on specific subjects. In this way we will have the advantage of a wide ranee<br />

of knowledge and experience to flow into our work.


430 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Co-operation with Southwide Agencies<br />

The Commission moved its headquarters office to Nashville so that it might<br />

enjoy the fellowship with other Southwide agencies who had their offices there.<br />

We are mindful also of our brethren at Richmond, Atlanta, Memphis, and Dallas;<br />

and of our faithful women at Birmingham. We shall depend much on the<br />

presidents and faculties of our seminaries. We shall be happy to serve as we<br />

can in our beneficent and healing work at New Orleans. Sometimes the work<br />

of these agencies is retarded and weakened because Christians who must go out<br />

to work abroad forget to be Christian. This Commission hopes to have something<br />

to offer that will help Christian people to assume their moral responsibilities<br />

wherever they may be.<br />

Fellowship with State Conventions<br />

Your Commission will be glad to work with state commissions or committees<br />

who have been appointed to serve in this field of the Christian's social responsibility.<br />

If there are states which do not have such a committee, and if the<br />

messengers to your convention feel that the best interest of the kingdom of God<br />

can be served by appointing one, we will share with them as well as with those<br />

already appointed the results of our studies and interpretations, all factual materials,<br />

and the techniques of approach to difficult problems. Furthermore, we<br />

urge them to share with us their knowledge and experience.<br />

The Christian Life Conference<br />

The Christian Life Conference is one of the plans by which this Commission<br />

seeks to gets its message to the people in our churches. We offer it to our<br />

churches on their voluntary invitation. We will have an attractive folder that<br />

explains what this conference is and how it can be used in any church or group<br />

regardless of its size or location. These folders will be sent to you cost and<br />

postage free on your request.<br />

An Informative Literature<br />

We plan to develop an attractive and distinctive literature on the various<br />

phases of the work of this Commission. These productions will be in the forms<br />

of booklets, brochures, and tracts. It will be some months before we will have<br />

sufficient quantities of this material to grant all requests. In the meantime we<br />

will keep on hand a selected body of material from other sources with which<br />

we hope to meet your needs. In addition to these special productions and in<br />

keeping with our desire to integrate the work of this Commission with our<br />

denominational thought and movements, we will offer brief articles and fact<br />

laden paragraphs to our educational periodicals, missionary magazines, and state<br />

papers.<br />

In closing this report may we say that it is our purpose to suggest the<br />

Scriptural bases and to provide the factual sources from which all of us can<br />

better understand the issues of our day and the moral responsibilities of the<br />

Christian life in terms of our Christian faith and practice. As we work toward<br />

these objectives we invite the official and pastoral leadership of this convention<br />

and of every member of our churches to give us their prayerful support and<br />

their undivided co-operation.<br />

At the last annual meeting of the Social Service Commission in August, 1952,<br />

one item for consideration was the name of the Commission. It was pointed out<br />

(1) that the term "social service" has come to be applied to organizations whose<br />

purpose is to raise funds and minister directly to social needs; and (2) that since<br />

the function of the Commission as defined by the Convention is to help interpret<br />

the basic moral principles of our faith and to bring these principles to bear upon<br />

the conditions of life among us, it was the unanimous judgment of the members<br />

present that the work of the Commission would be advanced by a name that would<br />

more nearly express its spirit and purpose.


THE SOUTHERN BAPTIST HISTORICAL COMMISSION 431<br />

<strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT<br />

HISTORICAL COMMISSION<br />

RICHARD N. OWEN, President<br />

NORMAN W. COX, Executive Secretary<br />

By the blessing of God 1952 was a year of exceptional progress in the work<br />

committed to us by the Southern Baptist Convention. We are unceasingly grateful<br />

for the co-operation given us by all the boards, institutions, and commissions<br />

of our Convention and by a large number of similar groups in the states. On<br />

every hand ways have opened by which we could serve each other to our mutual<br />

profit.<br />

The following eleven steps of progress deserve to be noted:<br />

1. Our work since its inception in the Convention in 1936 by the creation of<br />

the Committee for the Preservation of Baptist History has been in a fluid state<br />

of progressive development. With the action of the Convention last year adopting<br />

the recommendation of the Executive Committee that our charter issued by<br />

the State of Tennessee be approved, we became its Historical Commission charged<br />

with serving the history needs of Southern Baptists. Thereby we legally became<br />

an authorized agency of this Convention with specific responsibilities and obligations<br />

which are described therein. Henceforth the pattern of our life, the areas<br />

of our service, are clearly defined until they are changed by the Convention.<br />

A legal meeting of the Commission was held in May, at which we accepted<br />

the charter and are operating under its provisions.<br />

2. With the adoption of the new charter it became necessary to reorganize<br />

the Southern Baptist Historical Society. This was done at the annual meeting<br />

in Ridgecrest last August. It is now the Southern Baptist Historical Society,<br />

auxiliary to the Historical Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention.<br />

Dr. W. 0. Carver is its president.<br />

3. At the Convention in Miami our work was featured by an excellent cooperative<br />

historical exhibit. The items composing the exhibit were donated by<br />

each of the agencies of the Convention and one or more from each state. This<br />

will be the continuing pattern of our Convention exhibits. It will symbolize the<br />

co-operative modus operandi of our work and service.<br />

4. At Ridgecrest in August in addition to our regular meeting and service<br />

we conducted two notable new conferences:<br />

(1) A conference of college and seminary teachers of history and librarians.<br />

They know more about our history assets and needs than anyone.<br />

The findings and decisions of these groups will be fruitful for many years. Other<br />

such meetings will be held.<br />

(2) We gave a day to a conference of state Baptist history groups. Each<br />

state has either a historical society, commission, or committee. They had never<br />

met before. Seventy-four representatives from fifteen states participated. They<br />

voted to meet annually. The results will be valuable in each state.<br />

5. Out of the conference of librarians and history teachers came a decision<br />

to create in Nashville a pooled library of rare and seldom-used but essential<br />

materials to provide adequate resources for graduate and research students. This<br />

decision will in the years to come be of extraordinary value to our seminaries<br />

in their missions, church administration and religious education, as well as<br />

their history departments.<br />

6. On July 29, Dr. W. W. Barnes delivered the manuscript of a history of the<br />

Southern Baptist Convention which he was employed to write by the special<br />

History Commission several years ago. The members of that Commission read<br />

it, met, and for reasons sufficient to themselves, gave it to our Commission, with<br />

the request that we have the necessary editorial revision made and get it published.<br />

We accepted their tender of it. It is our confident expectation that before the<br />

Convention meets again our people will at long last have their first history of our<br />

Convention.<br />

7. More than a year ago it was decided that a microfilm department was<br />

an absolute necessity for our work. We are happy to report that during the


432 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

year we acquired and paid for the equipment, trained a competent director for<br />

this department, and are rendering microfilm service of the best quality. We<br />

are microfilming church, associational, and convention minutes, newspaper and<br />

other publication files, rare books and other valuable materials. We urge those<br />

who attend the Convention to stop by our microfilm exhibit. They will be amazed<br />

at what they see.<br />

8. Near the year's end the growing collection of Baptistiana that Dr. W. 0.<br />

Carver and his associates had been collecting in Louisville was moved to Nashville.<br />

The volume and value of that collection is extraordinary. It is a tribute<br />

to those who gathered it and is living evidence of the desire of our people to<br />

share in creating an adequate collection of basic Baptist historical materials.<br />

9. One of the notable experiences of the year was a gift of great value by<br />

William Jewell College and the Missouri Baptist Historical Society of thirtyseven<br />

large boxes of vital Baptist historical materials, which were surplus to<br />

their holdings. Much of it is very rare and essential to our needs. Mrs. P. E.<br />

Burroughs gave us our choice of the assets of her lamented husband's library.<br />

10. The greatest experience of the year was to move into our new quarters so<br />

generously provided by the Sunday School Board on the fourth floor of their<br />

new office building. None of us had faith enough four years ago to believe<br />

that now we could have what we do have. Surely the Lord has blessed us beyond<br />

our best dreams.<br />

11. Our library holdings have grown rapidly. We have accessioned into our<br />

library 7,453 volumes to December 31, 1952. Our microfilm holdings at the end<br />

of the year were 131,315 pages, which is the equivalent of 438 three hundredpage<br />

books. That does not count many unaccessioned books and some thousand<br />

pamphlets and other archival material. Neither does it count approximately<br />

12,000 volumes of the Sunday School Board and nearly 40,000 associational,<br />

state convention minutes, and other important items.<br />

We profoundly regret that for reasons our Commission was obliged to respect,<br />

Dr. W. O. Carver could not accept the unanimous desire of his associates to<br />

re-elect him as our chairman at the last annual meeting. For fifteen years<br />

he had served with unceasing fervor as our leader. His leadership has been the<br />

decisive influence in creating the progress that has attended our growth. The<br />

day will come when all who understand what will have come to pass will know<br />

that his service in bringing our Commission into being will have been used<br />

of God to bless richly our denomination's life. Upon every remembrance of<br />

him in this connection and otherwise we thank the good Lord for him.<br />

When Dr. Carver declined re-election, the Commission unanimously elected<br />

Dr. Richard N. Owen, the editor of the Baptist and Reflector, to be our chairman.<br />

We are confident that he will prove to be a worthy successor to Dr. Carver.<br />

We present herewith a copy of the auditor's report for our Commission for<br />

the year 1952. It was prepared by Mclntyre and Associates, Certified Public<br />

Accountants, who are the auditors for the Executive Committee of the Southern<br />

Baptist Convention, the Sunday BALANCE School Board, SHEET Southern Baptist Foundation,<br />

and Education Commission.<br />

SECTION V<br />

^tandina i^ommltteeA<br />

f<br />

<strong>ANNUAL</strong> REPORT<br />

JOINT COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC AFFAIRS<br />

JOSEPH M. DAWSON, Executive Director<br />

To the several Baptist conventions which officially sustain this Committee, it<br />

is gratifying to report a year of substantial progress.<br />

In the first section of our report we remind all of the present conditions.<br />

Once more the stout conviction of Baptists as to the continuing need of this<br />

Committee has been amply justified. To understand the situation it is quite<br />

necessary to keep in mind that church-state separation in the interest of religious<br />

liberty for all represented in the beginning of our Republic a tremendous<br />

conversion. It was the conversion of a powerful majority accustomed to union<br />

of church and state and restrictions on religious minorities. As to be expected,<br />

those who had long enjoyed public tax support for their church institutions felt<br />

extremely reluctant to surrender such a privilege. They thought to side-step<br />

the strict provisions of the Federal Constitution by advocating equal, or nonpreferential,<br />

aid to the churches. But for James Madison, who showed the<br />

evasive proposal, if recognized, would be equivalent to the state establishment<br />

of religion, the studied efforts of the reactionaries would have succeeded. From<br />

that day till this, groups unreconciled to the First Amendment's prescription<br />

that Congress shall make no law looking to the establishment of religion have<br />

not ceased to press for what was rejected by the Founding Fathers. Even today<br />

the Roman Catholic Church and some individual Protestants are still clamoring<br />

for equal, or nonpreferential, tax aid. Their unrelenting campaign for it constitutes<br />

the most prolific source of open or concealed violation of the nation's law.<br />

The backsliding from the Constitution in other respects, which at other<br />

times have been pronounced, is still conspicuous. For example, in the Jackson<br />

era the ultra-conservative clergy affiliated with the Federalist party of provilege,<br />

in an effort to claim tax support for the churches, declared that the word<br />

"democracy" as synonomous with atheism. Religious liberty for some groups was<br />

jeopardized by the clergy's campaign against what the clergy stigmatized as<br />

"free-trade religion." Jackson, as a Presbyterian strongly supported by the<br />

Baptists, replied that the security of religion in America must never become<br />

imperilled by involvement with government. The reactionary clergy's effort was<br />

defeated.<br />

Today some of the clergy of like mind have again centered their attack<br />

upon a word, "secular," asserting that since our system of government and<br />

public schools is secular our culture is doomed and tax funds must be given a<br />

substitute system of parochial schools. The attack will not succeed. Roger<br />

Williams long ago convinced all reasonable minds that the government must be<br />

secular, because it occupies an area concerned with civil affairs alone, apart<br />

from all organizational connection with the churches. Thus the government<br />

can never promote religion financially nor through its agencies; but this does<br />

not signify hostility to religion or imply separation of governing officials from<br />

religious character, ideals or principles.<br />

For long, at regular intervals, strong pressure has> been exerted to have our<br />

government single out one church for special recognition and advantage, by entering<br />

into ambassadorial relations with that church.


JOINT COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC AFFAIRS 435<br />

In the second section of our report we cite the fact that the Baptist Joint<br />

^ommittee on Public Affairs made certain helpful contributions during the year<br />

toward maintaining the cherished American principle against these attempted<br />

encroachments.<br />

First, in books, pamphlets, monthly newsletters, and numerous press releases<br />

the Committee sought to inform of recent specific attacks upon the bulwarks<br />

of religious freedom. The Committee engaged Mr. C. E. Bryant, head of press<br />

relations at Baylor University, to spend six weeks in diligent inquiry into the<br />

allotment of Federal funds to church agencies. His studies have been examined,<br />

evaluated, and approved by a special committee, and his report is being widely<br />

circulated, not only among Baptists but among others and is helping to alert<br />

the country against violations of the Constitution.<br />

The Committee shared influentially with other Protestants of the Nation in<br />

defeating the late Truman nomination of an ambassador to the Vatican. Since,<br />

it has remained alerted to any possible renewal of such a proposal and stands<br />

prepared to resist such to the limit. It is likely that the Committee influenced<br />

a final official clarification of the true relations between any American ambassador<br />

to Italy and the Vatican. Unabated interest in U. S. diplomatic representation<br />

at the Vatican is attested by the huge volume of requests for literature.<br />

Your Committee has insisted before all comers that sectarian interests should<br />

not control appointment to public office. The Constitution of the United States<br />

forbids denial of public office to anyone on grounds of religious faith. By the<br />

same token no one should be appointed to public office because of his particular<br />

church affiliation. For this to happen would mean eventually the recognition of<br />

a pernicious church-quota basis for all political appointees in the United States,<br />

and would end disastrously. Under such conviction the Executive Director appeared<br />

before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to insist that Dr. James<br />

B. Conant should not be refused appointment as High Commissioner to Germany<br />

on charges, which, if proven, would have maneuvered the Senate into acting in<br />

behalf of sectarian interests.<br />

Many other important activities have engaged us, not essential to this report.<br />

Fortunately, the Committee has enjoyed unstinted co-operation from Baptists,<br />

North and South, white and colored. Enlarged funds provided by the Conventions,<br />

have enabled it to keep out of debt and to extend and expand services.<br />

Through the generosity of a number of personal friends, who provided for all<br />

expenses, the Executive Director was permitted to attend the Baptist All-<br />

European Congress, which met in Copenhagen in July, and a week later to<br />

participate in the extraordinary retreat conducted by the Baptist World Alliance<br />

Executive Committee at Tollose, Denmark. At Tollose he submitted the report<br />

of a group which made a world survey of religious liberty. It is reasonable to<br />

expect that your Committee may continue to justify its activity and that it will<br />

meet with an ever-increasing measure of success.<br />

AMERICAN BIBLE SOCIETY<br />

General Headquarters: 450 Park Avenue, New York 22, N. Y.<br />

THOMAS T. HOLLOWAY, Field Secretary<br />

307 Baptist Building, Dallas I, Texas<br />

The American Bible Society joins in emphasizing- the 1953 Southern Baptist<br />

Convention theme by quoting this basic principle of missionary work;<br />

"If the people of the world are to believe in Jesus Christ, they must<br />

have the Bible. It is the one primary source of knowledge of Him."<br />

Today—when millions of people around the world are turning to the Bible as<br />

never before and when there is a severe shortage of missionaries in many fields—<br />

Bible distribution is more than ever a "must".<br />

The Bible is the missionary's chief tool; he uses it in every form of mission<br />

work. The Bible itself is a missionary—and a very valuable missionary, because<br />

it can go where the human missionary cannot go, stay when he must leave, and<br />

keep on working in a man's heart.<br />

Every man must have the Bible in his own native tongue if the Word of God<br />

is to speak to his heart. Someone must translate it into his language, publish it<br />

and send it to him, wherever he may live.<br />

In most countries of the world, the income of the people is so low that they cannot<br />

afford even the cost of printing the Scriptures. Someone must help those<br />

who can pay only a part of the cost and the many who cannot pay at all.<br />

The American Bible Society, a missionary non-profit organization, supported<br />

by gifts, serves as that "Someone". It aids in Bible translation, publishes the<br />

Scriptures without note or comment, and distributes them, without profit and<br />

usually below cost, for use in mission work around the world. For the blind, it<br />

supplies the Scriptures, at a small fraction of their cost, in Braille and other<br />

raised-letter systems; also on "Talking Book" records.<br />

Working in cooperation with the churches and the denominational mission<br />

boards, the Society serves every form of Southern Baptist work, at home and<br />

abroad.<br />

Summary for the Year 1952<br />

Here are some of the major accomplishments of the past year towards providing<br />

enough Scriptures for worldwide missionary needs. During 1952 the<br />

American Bible Society<br />

—distributed at home and abroad 825,647 Bibles, 1,401,954 Testaments and<br />

11,141,429 Portions, a total of 13,369,030 volumes. Nearly half of this distribution<br />

was in other lands and the total surpassed every year but one in<br />

the 137 years since the Society was organized.<br />

—supplied Scriptures in Korea, through the Korean Bible Society, not only<br />

for civilians and South Korean armed forces but also for North Koreans<br />

and Chinese who are prisoners of war in United Nations prison camps.<br />

1952 distribution of the Korean Bible Society totaled 1,284,090 volumes.<br />

437


438 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

—assisted the Korean Bible Society in publishing the entire Bible in the simplified<br />

spelling now adopted as the standard form of Korean language,<br />

which can be easily read by all the people. An illustrated Gospel of Luke,<br />

using the new spelling and printed in magazine form, is now being widely<br />

used as a textbook in Korean schools.<br />

—helped the Japan Bible Society to distribute some 3 million volumes of<br />

Scriptures, making a total of more than 13 million volumes distributed in<br />

Japan since V-J Day.<br />

—aided the Brazil Bible Society to reach the largest circulation of Scriptures<br />

in the country's history, 1,628,058 volumes, in spite of extreme difficulties<br />

in importing Scriptures during the year.<br />

—although cut off from most of its work in China, was able to distribute<br />

Chinese Scriptures from the Bible House at Hong Kong among Chinese<br />

people outside of Communist-controlled areas—especially in Formosa,<br />

which continues to be reported as a field white for the harvest.<br />

—continued its strategic service of supplying Testaments in many different<br />

languages for the men in the United Nations forces fighting in Korea.<br />

—provided 904,753 Scripture volumes for our Armed Forces, bringing the<br />

number supplied since 1940 to almost 11 million volumes.<br />

—received from Southern Baptist churches gifts which reached an all-time<br />

high total of $102,872; from churches of all denominations a total of<br />

$750,147.<br />

—received, from churches and from individuals, contributions totaling more<br />

than $2,500,000, which made possible the largest budget in its history—<br />

and adopted for 1953 an even greater program to meet expanding needs for<br />

Scriptures around the world.<br />

—but faced additional urgent requests, totaling $304,940 beyond the budget<br />

for the current year, for specific needs on many fields, especially Brazil,<br />

Korea, Hong Kong, Japan, India and Burma.<br />

Japan Continues to be the Outstanding Missionary Opportunity in the Orient<br />

The great demand for the Bible in Japan, since World War II, continues<br />

steadily. The American Bible Society has supplied in Japan, since V-J Day,<br />

more than 13 million volumes of Scriptures.<br />

1952 brought the publication of portions of the Bible in the new simplified<br />

form of the Japanese language. As rapidly as possible, other portions are being<br />

published and an even greater demand is expected when the entire Bible is<br />

available in this form.<br />

Current developments in Japan constantly emphasize General Douglas<br />

Mc Arthur's statement that "The Bible is the essential book in helping towards<br />

the moral and spiritual recovery of Japan." We are steadily working towards<br />

the fulfilment of his urgent request for 30 million Scripture volumes rapidly,<br />

in a thorough, long-range program designed to reach "every village and hamlet<br />

in the land."<br />

It is entirely possible to make a profound impression for Christ on this whole<br />

nation, because (1) 98% of the people are able to read; (2) the people are<br />

hungry for reading material of all kinds; and (3) they are especially eager to<br />

read the Bible.<br />

The program of Scripture distribution in Japan is based on sound principles<br />

and is achieving solid results:<br />

1. The work is carried on by the Japanese people themselves, through the<br />

Japan Bible Society, with needed help from the American Bible Society. The<br />

Bible is offered, not as an American book, but as God's book for all people.<br />

2. The Scriptures are regularly sold—at below-cost prices which the people<br />

can afford. They are also given to those who are not able to pay but are eager<br />

to read. This means that the Scriptures are not looked on with the suspicion as<br />

"give away" propaganda, but are read because people want them enough to make<br />

a personal investment. It also means that missionary gifts are safeguarded<br />

against waste.<br />

3 The program is reaching the entire nation. The work has been so thoroughly<br />

planned that Bible distributors on bicycles are covering the nation,<br />

county by county, taking the Scriptures even to the most remote rural areas<br />

and fishing villages.

But w>7 ltally reached b y one Gospel booklet, and may find Christ in that way.<br />

_ J ' wnen a man wants to buy a New Testament or a complete Bible, that shows<br />

tribut? . lnterest - The proportion of New Testaments and full Bibles being dis-<br />

,v„ T ed ln Japan is unusually large and indicates the spiritual earnestness of<br />

the Japanese people.<br />

Japan still needs missionaries, churches, schools and other Christian institutions<br />

as many as possible and as soon as possible. But, the rebuilding and enlarging<br />

of these forms of Christian work continues to be necessarily slow. And<br />

'i KI con tinues to be the only missionary and the only Christian message<br />

available to reach most of the Japanese who are open-hearted and readv to be<br />

reached for Christ.<br />

Ihe American Bible Society continues to say, with an increased sense of urgency:<br />

We dare not fail the people of Japan. We can, and must, provide now,<br />

enough Scriptures!<br />

The Door to Russia Is Still Closed, but Scriptures Are Ready<br />

Russia must again be mentioned, not because of achievements which can be<br />

reported, but because of its great need and our readiness to meet that need.<br />

Although the American Bible Society sent to Russia after the close of World<br />

War II, two large shipments of Russian Scriptures, the doors to Russia for<br />

several years have been, and still are, tightly closed. But, the Society is prepared<br />

and stands ready to supply the churches and the people of Russia with as many<br />

Russian Scriptures as they can use.<br />

The Society has on hand the largest stock of Russian Scriptures that has<br />

ever been accummulated in any one place, waiting in New York for immediate<br />

shipment to Russia. The Society is also ready to make gifts of materials and money<br />

to help re-establish Scripture publication in Russian.<br />

Because Scripture production in Russia has been suspended for so many<br />

years and because literacy programs in recent years have so greatly increased<br />

the number of Russian people who are now able to read, the shortage of the<br />

Scriptures in Russia continues to be unparalleled and almost beyond imagination.<br />

The American Bible Society still calls on its friends to continue to pray for<br />

the opening of the Russian door, praying that Bibles, not bombs, may be showered<br />

on Russia, and Bibles, not bombs, may be produced there in the days to<br />

come.<br />

Brazil Continues to Lead in Latin America<br />

Brazil has long been the leading area of missionary advance in Latin America<br />

and one of the outstanding missionary opportunities of the entire world.<br />

Because of the eagerness of the Brazilian people for the Word of God, for many<br />

year it has been difficult to supply enough whole Bibles for Brazil.<br />

The American Bible Society, working through the Brazil Bible Society, is continuing<br />

its definite program to increase the supply of Scriptures for Brazil. In<br />

1952 the Brazil Bible Society reached the largest circulation of Scriptures in the<br />

country's history, 1,628,058 volumes, in spite of extreme difficulties of importing<br />

Scriptures during the year.<br />

Southern Baptists' Part in the Work<br />

Southern Baptists recognize the American Bible Society as an essential part<br />

of their own worldwide mission program. Resolutions commending the work of<br />

the Society and requesting the churches to contribute to its support, have been<br />

adopted by state conventions and the Southern Baptist Convention. Gifts from<br />

Southern Baptist churches to the regular work of the Society have shown their<br />

deep interest in providing enough Scriptures for mission work throughout the<br />

world. Here is the record:<br />

1947 $63,094<br />

1948 72,321<br />

1949 76,384<br />

1950 $78,643<br />

1951 90,909<br />

1952 102,872


440 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

On the basis of the above record, and in view of Southern Baptists' ability<br />

and readiness to respond to missionary needs, the American Bible Society confidently<br />

looks to Southern Baptist churches for increasing gifts, with the expectation<br />

that, before long, they will reach at least $150,000 per year.<br />

Southern Baptists can be counted on to do their full share. The help of your<br />

own church is needed. Here are suggestions:<br />

Each church can give at least these amounts each year:<br />

Country and village churches $10 to $25<br />

Churches in small cities $25 to $100<br />

Larger churches $100 to $200<br />

Great city churches $200 to $500 or more<br />

Please send the contributions from your church to your Baptist state headquarters<br />

offiice, marked "for the American Bible Society".<br />

COMMITTEE ON AUDIO-VISUAL EDUCATION<br />

J. NORRIS PALMER, Chairman<br />

The question of audio-visual education in and through our churches has<br />

been a matter of study and discussion among Southern Baptists for a number<br />

of years, during the major portion of which time our Home and Foreign Mission<br />

Boards have made use of pictures and sound recordings in the promotion of their<br />

work. The work of this committee, however, dates from 1950, when in its Chicago<br />

session the Convention adopted a recommendation which made the Sunday School<br />

Board its "central agency for the promotion, production and distribution of<br />

visual aids," and further called for the appointment of an "advisory committee<br />

of five, composed of one representative of each of the following groups: Foreign<br />

Mission Board, Home Mission Board, the other Southwide agencies, the state<br />

secretaries and the Southern Baptist Convention Executive Committee, to work<br />

with the Sunday School Board in implementing this plan for the earliest possible<br />

service and for its continuous operation." It was felt at that time that<br />

we should plan, first, to produce audio-visual aids primarily for promotional<br />

purposes, but with willingness and purpose to explore their greatly enlarged<br />

uses in the field of teaching.<br />

Your committee scheduled two meetings for the year just past, one at<br />

Ridgecrest in August and the other at Oklahoma City nearer the time for the<br />

1953 Convention session. Attention has been given to the preparation and<br />

adoption of a production agreement which is now in use in establishing and<br />

carrying out proper procedure in the making of films for our various agencies<br />

and institutions. In addition to this, the committee members have undertaken<br />

to bring to the specific attention of each of our Convention's agencies and institutions,<br />

as well as to the attention of certain state and local groups, the<br />

facilities and services now available for the preparation of audio-visual aids.<br />

We take pride in calling the attention of the Convention to the wide range of<br />

materials which have now been brought into being by the Home and Foreign<br />

Mission Boards and the Sunday School Board. The following facts should be of<br />

specific interest to all of our people:<br />

1. The Home Mission Board has within a period of twelve months released<br />

nine productions which picture home mission fields and provide training for the<br />

work assigned to the Board. The productions of this agency are listed in Focus<br />

and are distributed through the Baptist Book Stores. The Sunday School Board<br />

is producing two motion pictures for the Home Mission Board this year, and<br />

the Home Mission Board is paying the rental on some of the Sunday School<br />

Board productions so that churches in mission fields may have the use of them.<br />

2. The Foreign Mission Board has indicated that 1952 was the most significant<br />

year in the history of its Division of Visual Education. It is stated that stability<br />

has been achieved in the ministries directed toward the educational and promotional<br />

objectives in the homeland, and that plans are being perfected which<br />

will enable the Board to make a practical, economical, and effective use of visual<br />

aids in our mission fields. Nineteen fifty-two releases for use in the homeland<br />

include six 16 mm. sound motion pictures, six Kodachrome filmstrips, and three<br />

chrome black and slides white numbering filmstrips far with into captions, the thousands, in addition promotional to program exhibits, guides, publica-Koda

activities are not shown therein. The report indicates increasing interest in<br />

tne use of materials being provided by this department, extensive field activity,<br />

him producers. During the year just closed there have been provided twenty<br />

releases, including nine motion pictures and eleven filmstrips, and definite<br />

progress has been made in the area of co-operative film productions. It should<br />

be noted here, however, that the department has rendered far-reaching service<br />

in co-operation with the Promotion Committee of the Convention's Executive<br />

Committee. It is felt that this is one of the most important and promising<br />

fields in which audio-visual materials may be utilized.<br />

BAPTIST CIRCULATION CAMPAIGN<br />

LOUIE D. NEWTON, Chairman<br />

The Convention responded to a request of the editors of the state Baptist<br />

papers in 1940 to appoint a Committee on Circulation of the State Baptist<br />

Papers. When our committee explored the situation, we found that the total<br />

circulation of the 19 state Baptist papers at that time was 200,000. We went to<br />

work, in co-operation with the editors and state secretaries, to increase the<br />

circulation of the papers to 500,000 by the Centennial of the Convention in 1945.<br />

By 1945 the circulation was 547,254.<br />

In 1946, at the Miami Convention, we set a goal of 1,000,000 circulation, and<br />

at the 1952 Convention, meeting again in Miami, we pledged ourselves to reach<br />

that goal of 1,000,000 circulation by the meeting of the 1953 Convention in<br />

Houston. On February 1, 1953, the circulation of the 21 State Baptist Papers<br />

was 1,017,496. Below we give the comparative figures of circulation in 1940<br />

COMMITTEE ON BAPTIST STATE PAPERS<br />

B. H. DUNCAN, Chairman<br />

The Baptist state papers have a message for Southern Baptists. This message<br />

is effective in Southern Baptist life in proportion to the combined circulation<br />

of these state papers.<br />

These papers carry a Bible message into the homes of our Baptist people each<br />

week. The discussion of Bible doctrines often appears in them. The doctrines,<br />

which Baptists have held and by which they have maintained their identity and<br />

on the basis of which they have promoted their programs, find frequent expression<br />

in the state papers.<br />

In addition to doctrinal discussions, there are devotional readings which are<br />

among the favorite features of these publications. Inspirational articles find<br />

frequent expression on their pages.<br />

Southern Baptist state papers are Bible centered and the Bible message is the<br />

very heart of these publications.<br />

The Baptist state papers also carry to their readers a denominational message.<br />

They seek to inform our Baptist constituency concerning both state and Southern<br />

Convention programs and interpret these programs according^ to Convention<br />

actions and in the light of Scripture teaching. It is an axiomatic fact that our<br />

Baptist people cannot be adequately informed about the denominational program<br />

if they do not read the Baptist state papers.<br />

In addition to the overall denominational program, both of the states and of<br />

the Southern Baptist Convention, the state papers carry the message of the<br />

agencies and institutions of both state conventions and the Southern Baptist<br />

Convention.


COMMITTEE ON BAPTIST STATE PAPERS 443<br />

The consistent reader of a Baptist state paper will be informed on the<br />

benevolent, educational, and missionary programs and_ achievements of the<br />

agencies and institutions of the denomination. The state paper is the only<br />

publication among Baptists committed to the complete coverage of the program<br />

oi Southern Baptists and the vital news growing out of that program. To say<br />

fw 11 not to discredit other Baptist publications. It is to recognize, however,<br />

that the state paper occupies an exclusive field of its own—a field which cannot<br />

be occupied by any other publication now in existence.<br />

T*? e baptist state papers also carry a message on current events and issues<br />

_outside the Baptist fellowship. They seek to keep the readers informed of these<br />

events and issues and to interpret them in the light of our Christian faith and<br />

our Baptist position and heritage.<br />

It becomes apparent, it would seem, that the Baptist state papers constitute<br />

a major, if not the major, unifying force and influence among Southern Baptists.<br />

With this three-fold message of the Bible, of the denomination, and of current<br />

events going into the homes of our Baptist people every week, it is easy to see<br />

the influence of these publications on the thinking of our Baptist people in regard<br />

to the great doctrines of the Bible, the program of the denomination, and the<br />

events in the religious world at large. This does not mean that the state papers<br />

attempt to exercise thought control over their readers. It simply means that<br />

the editors are seeking to bring to the readers of the papers true Bible interpretation,<br />

factual denominational reports, and general information.<br />

If the above statements are true, then we face two problems—more accurately,<br />

two challenges:<br />

The first challenge is to produce a better paper. This responsibility rests<br />

squarely upon the editor and his staff.<br />

Doubtless, much of this improvement could be made on the present budgets<br />

and with the present staffs of the papers, and the editors are constantly striving<br />

to improve their respective publications. However, in order for the state papers<br />

to adequately fulfil their mission it is absolutely necessary that they have larger<br />

budgets and largejr staffs. So many dollars will produce only so much even in<br />

the publishing industry and even when the publication is a Baptist state paper.<br />

Also, so many people can do only so much work even though they are an editor<br />

and his staff. In far too many cases the editor, the make-up man, the news<br />

gatherer, the feature story writer, etc., are all combined in one person. The<br />

only possible way this situation can be remedied is to provide a larger budget for<br />

the state paper which makes it possible to employ a larger staff.<br />

The next challenge is getting the message delivered to the greatest number of<br />

Baptists. Pastors, Sunday school teachers and officers, and other church leaders<br />

may greatly assist in expanding the circulation and increasing the reader interest<br />

of those who receive the paper.<br />

The big challenge is to expand the circulation. The combined circulation of<br />

Southern Baptist state papers, as of March 1, 1953, stands at 1,029,925. Figured<br />

at 3Y2 persons per family this would mean that 3,604,737 Baptists are receiving<br />

one of the state papers. That leaves approximately 1,082,218 Baptist homes into<br />

which the state paper does not go. How shall we reach these additional Baptist<br />

homes?<br />

Since the state paper is the medium by which the denominational message is<br />

carried into the homes of the people, it becomes the responsibility of the conventions,<br />

both the state conventions and the Southern Baptist Convention, to assume<br />

their responsibilities in the expansion of the circulation of the state papers. The<br />

conventions can do this by recognizing and publicizing to our Southern Baptist<br />

people the importance of these publications and their very tremendous value to individual<br />

Baptists everywhere. The state conventions, particularly, can assume<br />

their responsibilities by providing more adequate budgets and, therefore, enlarged<br />

staffs which would make it possible to produce a better paper and also<br />

to do more field work in the interest of securing both budget and club subscrip­<br />

444 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

Representatives from these denominational agencies and institutions doubtless<br />

have many opportunities to call attention to the state paper and the denominational<br />

message it carries when they appear in churches or when they speak to<br />

various other groups of Baptists. Simply to call attention to some item which<br />

appeared in some state paper concerning the particular institution which the<br />

speaker represents is a case in point.<br />

These agencies and institutions could greatly help the Baptist state papers if<br />

they would set up a regular schedule of publicity—both paid publicity and news<br />

releases. It would seem profitable for the editors of the Southern Baptist state<br />

papers and the public relations representatives from the agencies and institutions<br />

of the Southern Baptist Convention and of the state conventions to have a joint<br />

meeting to discuss both the problems and the opportunities for publicity and for<br />

news _ coverage of these agencies and institutions. Such a meeting should result<br />

in a better understanding between the two groups and consequently a<br />

greater degree of co-operation and a more effective promotion of our whole<br />

Southern Baptist program.<br />

REPORT OF<br />

COMMITTEE ON NEGRO MINISTERIAL EDUCATION<br />

H. LEO EDDLEMAN, Chairman<br />

We recognize the tragic inadequacy of our facilities for education and<br />

especially the theological education of our Negro ministry. All our Negro<br />

colleges are very inadequate with many at present having no immediate hope<br />

of becoming accreditd. Our Negro brethren are presently trying to maintain<br />

twenty-one theological seminaries, and only five of them have approached 50<br />

per cent of the needs to meet the standard of accreditation. Therefore, we<br />

should exert greater effort and concentration of power in seeking to rectify this<br />

inadequacy as much as possible.<br />

Before making any recommendations we would suggest that we face the<br />

facts of the status of the Negro ministry: At least 63 per cent of the Negro<br />

ministry have less than high school education, and 50 per cent of them have no<br />

training at all. At present the Home Mission Board is doing splendid work in<br />

a limited way through their Teacher Missionary Program, under the leadership<br />

of Dr. Guy Bellamy, to help this group of Negro ministers. Our seminaries,<br />

through Extension Departments, also give opportunity to some of these, but thus<br />

far it has reached pitifully few men. The American Baptist Theological Seminary<br />

has a program through which it can help a limited number. Our various<br />

state conventions have their own programs assisting in a small way, and our<br />

Negro colleges are doing all in their power to meet this need. Our W.M.U.<br />

gave $5,000.00 last year for scholarships to help our Negro ministers, and some<br />

work is being done by local church and district programs. But there are<br />

7,342,592 Negro Baptists with 38,209 churches, and all of this work is but touching<br />

the "hem of the garment."<br />

The 37 per cent of the Negro Baptist ministers of this country who have<br />

had as much as some attendance in high school as preparation for their Christian<br />

leadership are distributed as follows:<br />

Graduation from standard accredited seminary 3.1%<br />

Graduation from college and seminary not accredited 7.7%<br />

Graduation from college 8.5%<br />

Attendance at college and seminary 10%<br />

Graduation from high school and seminary 6.7%<br />

Attendance at high school .8%<br />

The Home Mission Board through its Teacher Missionary Program is being<br />

extended by our state conventions; "the rest is being done by our Negroes, with<br />

the exception of the accredited type work, which training is being received in our<br />

Northern accredited schools. Certainly our ideal for this latter group in the<br />

immediate future is 100 per cent accredited training, looking toward the time<br />

when the other 63 per cent might also receive such training.


COMMITTEE ON STUDY OF R.A., BOY MOVEMENT & SCOUTING 445<br />

REPORT OF<br />

COMMITTEE ON ROYAL AMBASSADORS,<br />

MAN AND BOY MOVEMENT, AND SCOUTING<br />

ROBERT E. NAYLOR, Chairman<br />

Your committee on "Study of Royal Ambassadors, Man and Boy Movement,<br />

and Scouting" met in Fort Worth, Texas, February 17, 1953, at the Texas Hotel,<br />

with all members of the committee present. The Baptist Brotherhood of the<br />

South was represented by its Executive Secretary, George Schroeder, and the<br />

Womans Missionary Union of the South by Mr. J. I. Bishop, Royal Ambassador<br />

Secretary.<br />

A full survey of the Royal Ambassador work covering a period of ten years<br />

was made available to the committee by Mr. Bishop, which revealed amazing<br />

progress in the program of missionary education and training for Southern Baptist<br />

boys. In 1942 there were 57,829 members of all Royal Ambassador units<br />

in the Southern Baptist Convention in 5,879 chapters. In 1952 there were<br />

106,027 members reported in 11,487 chapters. In the brief period of ten years<br />

the Royal Ambassador work in our Southern Baptist Convention has almost<br />

doubled. It was also clear that the program of this organization in the training<br />

opportunities made available to the boys has had a comparable expansion over<br />

the same period.<br />

Two trends have become apparent during this period of growth and are of<br />

particular importance in the study which you asked your committee to make. The<br />

first was the increase of male leadership in the Royal Ambassador chapters.<br />

With heartiest encouragement of the Womans Missionary Union, more and more<br />

men have been enlisted in these places of leadership. A survey in 1950 revealed<br />

that 65 per cent of all the leadership was male. This meant that in the Intermediate<br />

Chapters, ages 13 through 16, 85 per cent of the leadership was<br />

masculine and in the Junior Chapters 56 per cent. We are assured that a 1952<br />

survey will show accelerated movement in this same direction.<br />

The first trend has been accompanied by a second. Baptist Brotherhood<br />

organizations in our Southern Baptist churches have exercised increased cooperation<br />

with our Woman's Missionary Union organizations in the selection<br />

of the leadership for Royal Ambassador Chapters and in the carrying of the<br />

responsibility for the promotion of the work. Like all other Baptist movements,<br />

this thing which has originated in the churches has found its expression on state<br />

and Southwide denominational levels. There are five states in our Southern<br />

Baptist Convention in which Woman's Missionary Union of that state and the<br />

Baptist Brotherhood jointly accept financial and promotional responsibility for a<br />

State Royal Ambassador program. This means the employment of a Royal<br />

Ambassador Secretary and a Royal Ambassador budget for promotion. These<br />

states are Texas, California, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Oklahoma. The arrangements<br />

in these states are not identical. The important fact, however, is<br />

that co-operation organically is a reality, and that much effective work has been<br />

done.<br />

Commendations<br />

1. We wish to commend the Woman's Missionary Union for all that has been<br />

done in this program of missionary education and training for boys: specifically,<br />

the unusual progress that has been made under the leadership of J. I. Bishop,<br />

Royal Ambassador Secretary.<br />

2. We observe with enthusiasm the development toward masculine leadership,<br />

which has come about with the favor and enthusiastic support of Woman's Missionary<br />

Union.<br />

3. We note with great appreciation the increasing co-operation between the<br />

Brotherhood and the Woman's Missionary Union on denominational levels in the<br />

promotion of Royal Ambassador work.


446 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

COMMITTEE ON DENOMINATIONAL CALENDAR<br />

W. L HOWSE, Chairman<br />

Your Committee on Denominational Calendar met in Nashville, Tennessee,<br />

December 17, 1952, with thirteen members present.<br />

In preparing the 1954 Calendar of Denominational Activities, two special<br />

emphases were added: Jewish Fellowship Week (a home mission emphasis) in<br />

April and Nurse Recruitment Week in June.<br />

The chairman appointed special committees to plan the programs for the<br />

missionary days in the Sunday school as follows:<br />

For State Mission Day in the Sunday School, October, 1954 (to meet not<br />

later than September, 1953): Harry P. Stagg, chairman; Charles F. Sims, A. V.<br />

Washburn, Mrs. Robert Melton, Courts Redford.<br />

For Home and Foreign Missions Day in the Sunday School, March, 1955 (to<br />

meet not later than December, 1953) : Frank K. Means, chairman; John Caylor,<br />

James M. Sapp, Alma Hunt, Howard P. Colson.<br />

The committee, after careful consideration and agreement, submits the 1954<br />

Calendar of Denominational Activities, for the approval of the Southern Baptist<br />

Convention. (See p. 39.)<br />

REPORT OF<br />

COMMITTEE ON RELATIONS WITH OTHER RELIGIOU<br />

BODIES<br />

T. C. GARDNER, Chairman<br />

To those who know the genesis and progress of the Committee on Relations<br />

with Other Religious Bodies, no defense of its work is necessary, but a review<br />

of the history of the Committee may not be out of place here. The Committee<br />

has never had in mind the proposal to make its findings legally binding on any<br />

of the churches of the Southern Baptist Convention. Its purpose rather has<br />

been to inform Southern Baptist churches concerning any tendency toward an elimination<br />

of doctrinal emphasis which could destroy doctrinal understanding on<br />

which is based the happy relationship of co-operation among Southern Baptist<br />

churches. A recital of the history of the work of the Committee and its approval<br />

by the sessions of the Southern Baptist Convention may help to see the true meaning<br />

of what the Committee has been trying to do and of the purpose it has in mind<br />

to help the churches of the Convention and their members who believe in the<br />

heritage of truth which has been committed in marked measure to Southern<br />

Baptists.<br />

The History of the Committee<br />

The Southern Baptist Convention Annual of 1947 gives the history of the<br />

inception of the Committee. It says in part, the following:<br />

"25. The recommendations of the Executive Committee that a committee of<br />

nine be named by the Convention to meet with a similar committee from the<br />

Northern Baptist Convention to study the problem of 'boundaries' was ordered<br />

tabled indefinitely by the Convention on a motion of Floyd Looney, California.<br />

"70. On a point of personal privilege, President John Buchanan of the Executive<br />

Committee asked that more information be presented on the request of the<br />

Executive Committee for a committee to confer with a committee from the<br />

Northern Baptist Convention on matters of comity. After discussion by Paul<br />

Caudill, Tennessee, and R. C. Campbell, Arkansas, John Buchanan moved that<br />

the report of the Executive Committee be reconsidered. The motion was adopted.<br />

"71. John Buchanan's motion that the matter regarding the appointment of<br />

the committee for the discussioirwith the Northern Baptist Convention be taken<br />

from the table was approved. •,..-. A1 ^<br />

"72. Paul Caudill, Tennessee, moved the recommendation of the Executive<br />

Committee be amended to provide that a committee of seven be appointed to


RELATIONS WITH OTHER RELIGIOUS BODIES 447<br />

meet with a similar committee from the Northern Baptist Convention to consider<br />

our common problems. Adopted.<br />

"73. John Buchanan moved that the report of the Executive Committee as<br />

amended be approved. Adopted.<br />

"84. Duke McCall, Tennessee, moved that the entire report of the Executive<br />

Committee as amended be adopted. Adopted.<br />

"111. Ralph Herring brought the report of the Committee on Committees<br />

which was adopted. (See page 15)."<br />

The report of the Committee on Committees as adopted named the following<br />

committee: W. R. White, B. 0. Herring, George Ragland, B. A. Pugh, C. Roy<br />

Angell, I. E. Lee and Ryland Knight.<br />

The Southern Baptist Convention Annual of 1948 says the following, in part:<br />

"116. W. R. White presented the report of the committee on 'common problems'<br />

without any recommendations. On motion of L. E. Barton, the Convention<br />

voted to continue the same committee to study 'common problems' for another<br />

year."<br />

The Southern Baptist Convention Annual of 1949 says the following, in part:<br />

"109. T. C. Gardner, Texas, presented the report of the Committee to Discuss<br />

Common Problems with Northern Baptists, which was adopted.<br />

"110. James W. Merritt, Georgia, moved that the same Committee on 'Common<br />

Problems' be continued. Motion was approved."<br />

The Southern Baptist Convention Bulletin of May 11, 1950, says the following,<br />

in part:<br />

"18. T. C. Gardner, Texas, presented the report for the Committee on Common<br />

Problems with Northern Baptists with the following recommendations<br />

which were adopted."<br />

The scope of the work of the Committee was enlarged when the name of the<br />

Committee was changed from "Common Problems" to "Relations With Other<br />

Religious Bodies."<br />

The Southern Baptist Convention Annual of 1951 says the following, in part:<br />

"13. T. C. Gardner, Texas, brought the report of the Committee on Relations<br />

With Other Religious Bodies, with the following recommendations which were<br />

adopted, after the report was amended on motion of E. D. Solomon, Florida,<br />

to continue the same committee."<br />

The Committee Enlarged<br />

The Southern Baptist Convention Annual of 1951 says the following, in part:<br />

"125. H. W. Tiffany, Virginia, moved that the Committee on Relations With<br />

Other Religious Bodies be enlarged to include one representative from each<br />

state, with the understanding that the present committee would represent their<br />

state. Carried."<br />

This action enlarged the Committee to consist of T. C. Gardner, Chairman,<br />

B. L. Bridges, I. E. Lee, B. A. Pugh, Edgar Godbold, C. W. Pope, George Ragland,<br />

Paul N. Jolly, Alden F. Norris, James E. Carroll, C. D. Matthews, J. G.<br />

Hutchinson, W. C. Stephens, M. F. Ewton, A. L. Carnett, J. Dean Crain, Albert<br />

S. Hale, Wade Bryant, S. R. Woodson and Robert S. Cooper.<br />

The Committee which was appointed in 1947 held its first meeting in St.<br />

Louis, Missouri, with a similar Committee from the Northern Baptist Convention.<br />

It soon became evident that the "common problems" were largely doctrinal. After<br />

a long discussion a subcommittee from both Conventions was appointed to go<br />

further into the matter and report back to the combined Committee. This subcommittee<br />

met in Cleveland, Ohio, and discussed the matter further. Again it<br />

was evidenced that the "common problems" were largely doctrinal. The full<br />

Committee met again in St. Louis and it was agreed that each Committee report<br />

to its own Convention concerning the matter.<br />

Before the Southern Baptist Convention met in 1948 certain developments<br />

had come which prompted the Committee to report without recommendations<br />

and it so reported. The Convention continued the Committee. It was increasingly<br />

apparent that there was need for the Southern Baptist Convention to state<br />

definitely its convictions on some of the matters that had come up in the discussions<br />

and hence the Committee presented the report recommending an emphasis<br />

on indoctrination in the fundamentals of the faith. The Convention<br />

adopted the report of the Committee and again continued it.<br />

consideration and different The brought Committee, scriptural its of 1950 these therefore, convictions report differences concerning believed from it believed those it union had held a with that green by organized it Southern was light necessary from groups Baptists. the which Convention<br />

448 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

definite stand against any religious group whose views menaced Southern<br />

Baptist conviction. Hence, it brought its 1952 report concerning differences between<br />

Baptists and Catholics. Again, the Convention adopted its report. Nowhere<br />

has the Committee acted except in line with Convention action and approval.<br />

The Convention Instructs the Committee<br />

When the 1952 report was made, R. E. Milam, Oregon, asked that the Committee<br />

be instructed to study further the matter of doctrine and the amended<br />

motion was adopted and the same Committee continued. The Committee as it<br />

stands and the authorization given to it by the Milam amendment have been<br />

by Convention action and approval. It has taken seriously the work committed<br />

to it by the Convention and has appreciated the approval of the Convention at<br />

all its annual sessions. It has not shunned to express a need for an emphasis<br />

of the truth committed to Southern Baptists as a sacred scriptural trust. It<br />

covets, not commands, the support of the Convention and its messengers and its<br />

churches.<br />

This reviews the matter up to date as far as Convention action and approval<br />

are concerned.<br />

Thus, it will be seen that the Committee on Relations with Other Religious<br />

Bodies was instructed by the Southern Baptist Convention at Miami, Florida, last<br />

year to seek information on this question: "How effective is the present teaching<br />

program of our denomination on the question of the church ordinances in the<br />

light of present day conditions?"<br />

This committee is composed of twenty members, one from each convention<br />

state in our Southern Baptist territory.<br />

Each of the committee members has sought information in his state on this<br />

question by presenting a simple questionnaire to the associational moderators,<br />

convention officials and pastors or by writing letters to them.<br />

Convention Has No Authority Over Any Other Baptist Body<br />

It is the purpose of your committee to give to this Convention our findings,<br />

as revealed by the survey recently made. Before giving our findings, however, we<br />

wish to make it clear that the committee in all of its reports has only attempted<br />

to call to the attention of Southern Baptists the importance of our distinctive<br />

doctrines and to urge a greater teaching program in order that all of our people<br />

might be informed. It has never been the purpose of this committee to<br />

impose doctrinal tests upon the brethren in our Convention. We have simply<br />

presented New Testament principles and ideals with the hope that all of our<br />

churches would remain true to New Testament principles, doctrines, plans and<br />

programs.<br />

A New Testament church is autonomous or self-governing. Jesus established<br />

his church when he was here on earth. The New Testament churches were<br />

independent and self-governing. The highest court was the church. Matthew<br />

18:15-18. Its decisions were final. No general body can dictate to the local<br />

church. Christ is the head of his church. He established it. He loved it. He<br />

lived for it and he died for it.<br />

The church is divine in its origin, purpose and government. It is self-governing<br />

under the Lordship of Christ. It cannot be federated with any other institution.<br />

It governs its own affairs, but its only law giver is Christ, its head and<br />

founder. His church is a full and complete spiritual democracy. No convention,<br />

church, group of churches or any other religious body has any power of control<br />

over a New Testament church.<br />

A New Testament church, as a spiritual democracy, has the unquestionable<br />

right to receive or reject applicants for membership. But, by the same comparative<br />

reasoning, a Baptist convention has the same right to determine its<br />

membership. If a church decided to receive into its membership people from<br />

other faiths, it has a right to do so. If that church desires to have two types of<br />

members, that becomes a concern of ours only when that church seeks recognition<br />

as a sister Baptist church in the Southern Baptist Convention. Baptist<br />

conventions have no delegated authority oyer a church.<br />

"While independent and sovereign in its own sphere, the Southern Baptist<br />

Convention does not claim and will never attempt to exercise any authority over<br />

any other Baptist Body, whether church, auxiliary organizations, association or<br />

convention." practice, If a church and (Article desires adopts to 4, a maintain Constitution program it, at that variance of Southern is its with own Baptist accepted affair. Convention.)<br />

No Baptist outside belief organ-<br />

ization has a right to interfere with its affairs. The Southern Baptist Convention<br />

is not the guardian of Baptist churches. The Southern Baptist Convention,<br />

according to its constitution, "consists of messengers who are members of<br />

missionary Baptist churches cooperating with the convention."<br />

Southern Baptists are confronted today as never before in their history with<br />

the problems growing out of inter-denominationalism and non-denominationalism.<br />

The whole genius and work of the Southern Baptist Convention as a connectional<br />

type of organization is based on the conviction that local, visible, sovereign<br />

New Testament churches are the only divine and authoritative institutions<br />

for carrying out the Great Commission. Southern Baptists believe in a New<br />

Testament Church-centered, church-controlled program of stewardship, Christian<br />

education, missions and evangelism.<br />

Southern Baptists believe that Jesus established his church when he was<br />

here on earth and that he gave to it its ordinances, its message, its mission, its<br />

program, and its commission.<br />

Survey Made by States<br />

The percentages indicated in this report are based on answers received from<br />

a cross section survey.<br />

The questionnaire used in securing the information and a compilation of the<br />

answers are as follows:<br />

I. The Teaching Program of Your Churches<br />

I. The Lord's Supper<br />

(1) Question—What teaching program beyond that found in our Sunday<br />

school and Training Union literature do your churches follow for the purpose of<br />

indoctrinating their church members concerning the Lord's Supper? Answer—<br />

Study courses, doctrinal sermons, classes for all new church members studying a<br />

doctrinal book, distribution of doctrinal tracts and the observance of a Baptist<br />

doctrine week.<br />

(2) Question—How often each year on the average do the pastors of these<br />

churches preach on the Lord's Supper? Answer—60% preach on the Lord's<br />

Supper once a year, 10%—twice a year, 20% each time the Lord's Supper is<br />

observed and 10% never preach on it.<br />

(3) Question—How many study courses in Training Union and Sunday school<br />

do your churches on the average have each year concerning the church ordinances?<br />

Answer—25% of the churches have doctrinal or semi-doctrinal books taught<br />

anually, 50% only have them taught occasionally and 25% never have books<br />

taught.<br />

2. Baptism<br />

(1) Question—What teaching program do your churches follow for the purpose<br />

of indoctrinating their church members concerning baptism? Answer—<br />

Observance of a Baptist doctrine week when doctrinal books are taught and<br />

doctrinal sermons are preached. Training Union and Sunday school study<br />

courses are taught annually. Tracts are distributed and brief discussions are<br />

given in Training Union on Sunday evening. Many pastors quote Scriptures<br />

each time they baptize.<br />

(2) Question—How often each year do the pastors of these churches preach<br />

on baptism? Answer—The average is one time a year.<br />

II. What Your Churches Practice<br />

times; 5%—1 time each year; and 5% never observe it.<br />

(2) Question—What percentage of the churches confine the participation of<br />

the Lord's Supper to their own members? Answer—37%.<br />

(3) Question—What percentage of churches invite other bodies of any faith or<br />

denomination to have part with them in this observance? Answer—5%.<br />

450 1953 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION<br />

(6) Question—In what percentage of your churches is nothing said.pub ie y<br />

about who shall, or shall not, partake of the Lord's Supper? Answer— ia /•<br />

2. Baptism<br />

(1) Question—What percentage of the churches accept members to full Jf J*°^<br />

ship who have been immersed by other bodies than Baptist churches,' Answer<br />

11%%.<br />

(2) Question—What percentage of the churches in your territory believe that<br />

all Christians should be baptized; that baptism is the immersion o± a believer in<br />

water by authority of the church; that it is an act of obedience, but in itself<br />

has no saving power? Answer—97%.<br />

(3) Question—What percentage of the churches in your territory practice<br />

open church membership? Answer—Vz of 1%.<br />

(4) Question—What do you believe Southern Baptists should do to safeguard<br />

their doctrinal purity and denominational integrity? Answer—Refrain from<br />

ordaining any candidate to the ministry who cannot wholeheartedly subscribe<br />

to all of our New Testament Baptist doctrines and practices. Do more expository<br />

and doctrinal preaching. Observe a Baptist doctrine week every year.<br />

Maintain a class in New Testament Baptist doctrines for all new members.<br />

Encourage more doctrinal lessons and programs in Sunday school and Training<br />

Union quarterlies. Carefully select men and women for all church organizations<br />

who are doctrinally sound. Enlist all members in Training Union and Sunday<br />

school. Teach the Word and practice New Testament principles and ideals.<br />

Southern Baptist Progress Due to Doctrinal Emphasis<br />

Our survey, as given above, reveals the fact that in one small section of our<br />

Convention territory, ninety per cent of the churches are practicing both alien<br />

immersion and open communion. We find in other sections of the territory that<br />

a few churches have both associate and regular members. The associate members<br />

may come from any faith but are given all the privileges of a regular<br />

church member. A small percentage of our churches accept members to full<br />

fellowship who have been immersed by other bodies than Baptist churches. We<br />

likewise found that a very small percentage of our churches practice open church<br />

membership. These percentages are given in the above survey sheet.<br />

Our survey also reveals that a minority group of our churches never observes<br />

the Lord's Supper. It likewise reveals that 18 per cent of our pastors never say<br />

anything publicly about who shall, or shall not, partake of the Lord's Supper. A<br />

small percentage of our churches in the Convention territory invite religious<br />

bodies of any faith to have part in the observance of the Lord's Supper.<br />

Our survey reveals, however, that by far the majority (97%) of Southern<br />

Baptists believe that all Christians should be baptized; that baptism is the immersion<br />

of a believer in water by authority of the church, that it is an act of<br />

obedience, but in itself has no saving power. The survey likewise reveals that<br />

89 per cent of the churches practice restricted or so-called "close communion."<br />

Southern Baptists also believe, as revealed in this report, in total salvation by<br />

grace. They believe in one Lord, one faith and one baptism.<br />

Southern Baptists are known far and wide for their spirit of unity and cooperation.<br />

This spirit of unity and co-operation is due to what Baptists believe<br />

and practice. The progress Southern Baptists have made in evangelism, Christian<br />

education and missions is due to their unity in Christian doctrines.<br />

The majority of our preachers and our churches accept, believe and preach<br />

our traditional viewpoint on doctrine. There are a few among us who are<br />

extreme in their interpretation of the truth, but they are so overwhelmingly<br />

outnumbered by those who continue to believe and practice the faith of our<br />

forefathers that the spiritual, evangelistic and missionary witness of our Southern<br />

Baptist Convention is constantly widening and being blessed of God. The<br />

strength, spiritual force, power and influence of Southern Baptists lie within<br />

the fact that we are united, that we are thinking, praying, winning and<br />

working together.<br />

We believe that Southern Baptists should ever be on the alert to safeguard<br />

our doctrinal purity and denominational integrity. This procedure calls for a<br />

great program of expository doctrinal preaching, teaching and training, it calls<br />

for a united effort in magnifying the church, in winning the lost and indoctrinat<br />

ing the members. This committee, based on its survey, believes there ought to<br />

be a continued study of our doctrines looking to the strengthening of our Baptist<br />

life.


RELATIONS WITH OTHER RELIGIOUS BODIES 451<br />

The survey that your committee has completed convinces us that Southern<br />

Baptists have been raised up for such a time as this. The people of this world<br />

are in need of a loving Saviour. They are in need of the gospel of Jesus Christ.<br />

Moreover, they need New Testament churches to train, indoctrinate and develop<br />

the saved.<br />

When our Baptist doctrines are properly understood and applied in all realms<br />

of life, Communism will be demolished, dictators dethroned, ecumenicalism destroyed<br />

and liberalism defeated.<br />

Moreover, when our Baptist distinctives are preached and taught with conviction,<br />
