Young People’s Meetings

The Young People's Meeting of Trenton, N. J., held their second anniversary on the evening of March 30, 1928, and made the following report:

The Young People's Meeting is indeed thankful that they have been permitted to once again gather for the occasion of celebrating their anniversary. It has now been two years since these meetings were started by our brother, R. P. Hyde. We are also indebted to our leader and teacher, who has sought to point out to us the wonderful truths of the Old Testament. May we continue to value these precious privileges and seek to have others become interested in these meetings, should our blessed Lord tarry.

The meeting was opened with the singing of a hymn, after which there was prayer by Mr. G.

Following this, Mr. J. took up a number of questions in alphabetical form, covering lessons which we had studied for some time past, requesting individuals present to answer. He also asked questions which were a general review of all the lessons we have had during the past year.

He then asked a number of those present to state what they thought of the Young People's Meetings during the past year; whether they had enjoyed them; whether they had been helpful to them in coming to a better knowledge of the Scriptures; or "if they had any suggestions to make which might help to better our future meetings. The replies were warmly appreciative.

E. R. next gave a report of the tract work carried on among bereaved persons, convicts, etc., by Mrs. C. H. with money contributed by the Young People's Meeting. Following this ten awards were made, for attendance, to those who have not missed more than two meetings during the past year, whilst four received Honorable Mention. The awards consisted of wall mottoes and a personal letter of encouragement from our leader, Mr. W. S.J. Those receiving Honorable Mention missed three meetings during the year, and received a wall motto as an award.

Seven awards were also given to those who faithfully returned their question papers during the year. They also consisted of wall mottoes and personal letter of encouragement by Mr. J. to those receiving 100%, whilst mottoes were given to four receiving Honorable Mention.

A souvenir was presented to Mr. J. on behalf of the Class. Mr. J. said he would rather give than receive at any time, but nevertheless, accepted it with thanks.

After distribution of papers for the next meeting Mr. J. spoke a few words, expressing the feeling of deep appreciation for the work of E. R., as secretary, saying he knew a great deal of time and care is required to get up the notices, typewrite the questions, etc., and hoped everyone would fully appreciate this.

The meeting closed with prayer, after which refreshments were served, and an hour's singing of hymns was enjoyed by all present.

In forwarding the above encouraging Report of this meeting the writer says-"I am sure you will be glad to know that we are going on happily, and having some very profitable meetings. The Lord has surely blessed our little company.-C. M. H." May He continue to bless, and to lead you all to His praise. S. Ridout
