Preacher Needed

De Kalb, Texas

Dear Brother Tant, We are writing in the hope that you might help us secure a preacher, through the Gospel Guardian or perhaps through personal contact.

We are a small congregation of about twenty-five members who have been meeting together about three and one half years. Our geographical location is some 30 minutes east of Mt. Pleasant, 30 minutes west of Texarkana, 15 minutes southwest of New Boston in the community of Siloam, Texas on the Farm to Market road 561.

We own a 30 x 50 foot building with three class rooms, cry room and rest rooms. Our auditorium is adequate to seat 150 people.

Our need is for a retired man who could live in the community and work with us. We will be able to pay twenty-five or thirty dollars per week plus a house, which we will rent for the present.

The community of Siloam is very clean and neat. There is no conservative congregation within 30 miles. We believe that with the help of a fulltime preacher we can grow in number as well as in spirit.

Your brother in Christ, V. L. Mehaffey Rt. # 1
