Sunday continued a happy day.
There was a good number out in the evening – 40-50. Felt my recent sermons have
been too much on the side of human failure & that I should now present more
of the love & power of God. Have
tried faithfully to expound the appointed lessons & that has been the
emphasis but shall try to make some change next week. Popped into Shoreys for half an hour for an
exchange of news. H felt too tired to
come.
Called on Ted Clack on way to
the office on Monday. Ted gave me some photos of B’m taken from the air. We
hope we may make up some calendars for Xmas using the photos. Business is
rather slow.

Yesterday, I was busy with
correspondence in am & in pm went to B’m. […]
I called on the Hartleys. Mrs
H not at all well. The house is progressing but I guess it will be a month
before we are in. Had tea w the Newsons & after, took my first banns
parties in B’m. Then spoke at the Baptist C.E. Harvest Th’giving.
Had a nasty skid on way back
in heavy rain. Skidded out of side land into main road. Luckily nothing was
near or it could have been serious. Am grateful to God for my preservation. Was
glad to get home. This long drive is
proving trying.
This am I went to St M E17
& took H.C. assisted by Andrew Bowman. It was like going home. Went on to
coffee at Ch Hse. Saw the High twins, Derek Wood, John Robinson, Mrs Kemp, Mrs
Dowling & a host of others. H & I are due there on Tuesday evening next
for a little presentation. Called on Mrs Dru whom I promised to visit whilst
still at St M’s was glad I did so. Felt I was able to help.
More work at my desk in the
pm.
