Roy S. Fudge, 103 Linden Drive, Lafayette, La., 70503: "The South College Road church has made steady progress for the past two years. We have seen a 40% increase in the Sunday morning attendance. Interest seems to be at a high peak. The church is working together in peace. The two elders, Bob Gay and Charles Estes are two of the most devoted and consecrated men it has been my privilege to be associated with in my more than twenty years of preaching.
"I plan to leave the work here by July 1st. I would like to hear from any church that would like to make a change this summer. You may write the elders here (507 South College Road) for references, or I would be happy to send other references. You may write at the above address, or contact me by calling, 234-4035 or 232-0261."
