Church Of Christ In South Park Houston, Texas

Melvin D. Dunn, 5810 Glenhurst Drive, MI 9-5568

Dear Brethren and Sisters in Christ:

We joyfully announce the establishment of another congregation of the Lord's people in the South Park area of Houston, Texas. Last Lord's Day, July 17th, we met in Anna B. Kelso Elementary School located at Crestridge and Southmund, where we will be meeting temporarily until more suitable facilities can be secured. The schedule of our Lord's day meetings is as follows: Morning Bible classes, 10:00A.M.; morning worship assembly,11:00 A.M. and evening worship assembly, 6:00 P.M. Mid-week meetings are being conducted in the homes of various members for the time being. We are fortunate to have several capable evangelists among our number who will share the preaching assignments on an alternating basis.

For the information of everyone we wish it to be known that we stand united upon the principle that the Bible is our only safe rule or guide for our faith and practice and that the local church is the only organization ordained of God through which His works of evangelization, edification of the saints and benevolence toward those of its number who may be subject to its care, can be performed.

We expect to establish this new work and carry it on without outside financial assistance; however, we do ask for your prayers and full support in other ways available to you, in our efforts to further the Lord's cause. Please give us the names of persons living in this area whom you would like for us to contact and tell others whom you think might find it more convenient or desirable to worship and work with us. It would certainly be a great encouragement to have others join us in this work, and we anticipate that several who are now working elsewhere will soon be with us. Information or inquiries may be directed to any of the brethren whose names appear below:

Yours in Christ, Signed:
