CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS FIRST SITTING

The first sitting of the Forty-seventh Annual Conference of the Pennsyl-vania-New Jersey District of the Pilgrim Holiness Church convened in Wesley Chapel on the campus of Eastern Pilgrim College, June 16, 1960 at 10:00 am. at the call of the District Superintendent, Rev. E. S. Rutherford.

The annual communion service began with Rev. E. J. Haskins leading the congregation in singing, "Near the Cross," accompanied by Miss Margie Morris at the organ.

We were led in prayer by Rev. J. R. Mitchell, the college pastor.

District Superintendent Rutherford then presented General Superin-tendent Dr. William H. Neff to the Conference.

Following a few words of warm-hearted greetings, Dr. Neff read the scripture lesson from I Cor. 11:17-29 and brought a challenging message emphasizing:

I. The fact our Lord wanted us to keep Him in remembrance—Thus He instituted the Lord's Supper.

II. There is a tendency in man to misuse divine things.

A. Such as the sabbath.

B. The Corinthians did this with the Lord's Supper—it became the eating of just an ordinary meal.

C. There is danger of iosing the spiritual significance of this holy ordinance.

D. This is a spiritual feast so all must come in the spirit of rever-ence.

E. We must come in the spirit of humility.

III. We are in the midst of perils in holiness living.

A. Preachers are not exempt from perils; therefore we must watch.

B. This supper can bring much power and blessing.

C. This supper tells us how much He loved.

D. Out of this supper should come most rich and rapturous "Dox-ologies".

E. Paul received a special revelation for this is a remembrance service.

F. We do this in gratitude, and thankfulness and praise.

G. We should come unitedly to the Lord's Table.

H. We are to celebrate the "Lord's Supper" hopefully—"till He come".

PILGRIM HOLINESS CHURCH

The District Council then took their place standing before the altar while General Superintendent Neff offered the prayer of consecration after this Reverends Neff and Rutherford served the "Lord's Supper" to the Council. Then Rev. L. W. Drury served the General Superintendent and District Superintendent.

Following the serving of these officers of the Church, the District Coun-cil served one hundred twenty-two other members of the Conference and visiting friends.

The Communion service was closed with a vocal number by the quartet of E. P. C. The benediction was pronounced by Rev. Rutherford.

A motion carried to extend the time long enough to hear the roll call.

A motion was made to officially receive the following ministers upon transfer: William E. Thurston from the N. Y. District, Russell Davis from the Eastern District, J. R. Mitchell from the W. Va. District, and C. E. Wert from the Oklahoma District, so that their names may be called in the roll call. The motion carried.

The Conference roll was then called. Fifty-two ordained ministers an-swered the call, as did fourteen licensed ministers, and one ordained deacon-ess. Most of the lay delegates were present with thirty-nine answering the call.

Upon completion of the roll call, the first sitting adjourned at 11:50 am.

SECOND SITTING

The second sitting of the Forty-seventh Annual Conference opened at 1:30 p.m. with all standing and singing, "My Jesus I Love Thee."

Requests for prayer were given including Bessie Hatcher, iVlrs. Ada Elmer, and many unspoken requests. Rev. Edgar J. Haskins led in prayer.

The District Superintendent introduced General Superintendent Dr. William H. Neff to the Conference. He gave words of warm welcome and appreciation.

Then he read I Cor. 12. Dr. Neff emphasized:

I. Preachers must keep truth in its proper perspective.

A. Some preachers nearly always preach in terms of death and crucifixion.

B. Others preach all radiance and prosperity.

C. Both sides must be preached to produce well-rounded Chris-tian living.

II. Paul presents three things in this passage.

A. There was a "man in Christ"—Paul "positionized" "in Christ" not "in Adam".

B. This man in Christ had a vision and revelation. Visions and revelations are scriptural—not fanatical.


C. God's response to this revelation—"A thorn in the flesh"—lest he be exalted above measure.

III. Christ will give you the victory—"Victory in Christ".

The Conference joined in singing, "I'll Live For Him".

The minutes of the first sitting were read and approved as read.

The Reception Committee presented C. E. Wert, J. R. Mitchell, Wm. E. Thurston, John Croft, and Paul Dieter of the Eastern District.

CONFERENCE REPORTS REPORT OF THE DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT

TO THE FORTY-SEVENTH ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF THE PENN-SYLVANIA AND NEW JERSEY DISTRICT OF THE PILGRIM HOLINESS CHURCH NOW IN SESSION AT EASTERN PILGRIM COLLEGE I HUM-BLY SUBMIT THIS REPORT.

It gives me great pleasure to welcome Dr. Wm. H. Neff to this District Conference and to the Eastern Area of the Church where he is beginning a term of service as General Superintendent. Dr. Neff, we welcome you and pledge you our support and respect as you guide us by your wise coun-cil and human leadership that is dedicated to God as it relates itself to the work of the Pilgrim Holiness Church.

The Goodness of God has permitted the members of this Conference to gather on these holy grounds once more to review the past and plan for the future. May the mantle of the pioneer leaders of the Holiness Movement fall upon us today. Ours is not a lost cause as suggested by a few. He is still mindful of His faithful servants. Holy Spirit, descend on us today bringing Vision, Vitality and Victory!

REASON

Why? Yes, why are we here? Why have we labored and toiled through the past twelve months? Many negative answers could be proposed but I choose to think that we have gone forth to the battle at His call and for His cause. "For His name's sake they went forth." There are hardships and perhaps privations but holy men called of God would not be satisfied in giving anything but their best. I have heard one of our men often say that he grows weary in the work but never weary of the work. We stand today at another milestone in the life of our Conference. Some of us be-lieve that God is trying to use the Church as He has never been able to in the past. We dare not impede the progress that can be made. This would be a good day to re-examine our position. To promote anything less than New Testament salvation is folly and anything more is exceedingly danger-ous. Holy men who led the Church to its present position concerned them-selves with the essentials of salvation. Dare we do less?

RESOURCES

Great is Thy faithfulness, morning by morning new mercies I see. Yes, God has given added strength for added duties. He has not failed; neither have loyal men and women, ministry and laity failed the program of God and His church this year. We are deeply grateful for those who have given first of themselves and then of their means.

The Treasurer's report will reflect decided gains in the giving for Gen-eral and District interests. Our USF totals more than any year on record.


District receipts were slightly above last year however heavy expenditures brought us to a lower cash balance than previously. The property state-ment will reveal some good gains in equity on our several churches and par-sonages.

Our newest Camp Meeting, Bethany, has enlarged the tabernacle to accommodate several hundred people.

A beautiful and practical church building was deeded to the Pilgrims at Hanover. The parsonage was purchased at a very reasonable price. We have equity of more than $15,000.00 in the Hanover properties. Rev. Charles Sorrells, Pastor.

The Allenwood Pilgrims completed a major project in enlarging their church building. It became one of the most practical places of worship that we have. Rev. P. W. Braisted, Pastor.

Augustaville is completing a Sunday School annex. Rev. Leroy Penny-coff is the Pastor.

Bethlehem, First, Rev. Elmer Hocking, Pastor, spent several thousand dollars in beautifying their church.

Bridgeton is ready to begin a large building program under the leader-ship of Pastor Wm. Derr, Jr.

Bush Hollow purchased several acres of land for their proposed ex-pansion program. Rev. David Wooten. Pastor.

Rev. Phillip Doyle led his people at Cherryville in the purchasing of a parsonage that will be adequate for many years.

Coleville enlarged their Sunday School facilities, redecorated the sanc-tuary and installed a modern heating system in the church. Rev. B. L. Bid-well is the Pastor.

Highland, where Rev. Herbert Fisher is the Pastor, has made extensive improvements to both church and parsonage.

Jamesburg added much to the value of their parsonage with new sid-ing and other work. Rev. C. F. Kresge, Pastor.

Rev. Robert Addington led the Lock Haven Pilgrims in the purchasing of a large tract of land in a very favorable location where they expect to relocate both church and parsonage.

The Reading Church installed new carpeting and redecorated the in-terior of the sanctuary adding much to the value and appearance of the property. Rev. Walter Bubb is the Pastor.

The Armstrong Valley Church installed a new heating system and other improvements. Brother Fred Newton has served well this rural church.

The exterior of the Lebanon church was given two coats of paint dur-ing the Conference year . Curtis Blimline is Pastor.


The Miliville parsonage has taken on a new look as several hundreds of dollars and many hours of hard work have been spent. Rev. William Hower has served the church since the illness of Sister Anna Smith forced her resignation.

Rev. Ray Chamberlain Jr. worked hard and developed new class rooms at Muir.

Muncy is engaged in a building program on their newly acquired prop-erty. Rev. Paul Washburn, Pastor.

North Rome is engaged in a church enlargement program. Rev. John Wiktorchik is Pastor.

Pt. Phillips is rescly to begin a Sunday School annex. This rural and young church shows good gains this year under the capable leadership of Rev. E. R. Heckman.

A comfortable place of vorship was dedicated at Port Ann, another of the newer churches. Rev. Kermit Shrawder has been a faithful shepherd of this growing flock.

Port Matilda property is in much better condition as a result of the hard work of Rev, and Mrs. John Croft.

Our Stroudsburg Pilgrims, under the leadership of Rev. L. W. Drury are making wise plans to relocate.

Another forward step at York shou]d be reported. The old property on Philadelphia St. was sold and a much more practical parsonage was purchased. We commend Rev. Arthur Yeager on this wise move.

The Lord has blessed Eastern Pilgrim College with another good year and material gain in the erection of six new student halls. May God's bless-ing ever be upon our College. The closer I work with this fine institution the more I appreciate what is being done.

Home Missionary activities will be reported by another but I must men-tion the highlights. A small work has been carried on this year at Quakake, Pa. under the direction of Ronnie Adams, a student at E. P. C. The Hanover project developed into a fully organized church with sixteen members. A Pastor, Rev. Norman Wilson is moving this week to care for the work in Wilkes Barre, Pa. where we have promise of a church this year. Much credit goes to Rev. Carl Hall who went way beyond the line of duty to see a work of holiness started in this large city where we have found no other holiness church laboring.

REWARDS

One of our faithful workers was called to rest and to await her final reward. Miss Emma Garman, a handmaiden of the Lord and an ordained minister of our Conference, laid aside the earthly during the year. It was my privilege to minister at her bedside twice.

Another homegoing is worthy of our mention here. Although Mrs. Ella Hoover carried no credentials she was so much a part of the parsonage life where her daughter pastored. Mother Hoover with her gentle ways and Christ like Spirit has been missed.


RECORD

We offer no apology for the little that we have been able to accomplish because we feel that we have given our best. We supplied the Cherryville church for two weeks before installing our successor. It was our privilege to visit each of the four camp meetings conducted on the District as well as the Youth Camp where we spoke once and conducted the Conference in the absence of the General Secretary of Youth work. Serving as quizmaster was a pleasant experience as the competing teams engaged in the quiz pro-gram. We spent about three weeks in the development of the Hanover and Wilkes Barre projects, as well as some time at Quakake. Our activities in-clude 7 area Pastors' meetings; 11 services promoting the visitation pro-gram; 11 Council meetings; 2 Sunday School Board meetings; a tour of the District with the Sunday School Board; 2 Home Missionary Board meetings; met the Ministerial Convention Committee and presided at the Convention; conducted the business meetings of the Bethany and Bald Eagle camps and and met with the camp boards; attended two Board of Director meetings at Eastern Pilgrim College; one General Board meeting in Indianapolis; met with the other District Superintendents of the Eastern Area at Alexandria, Va.; attended the Church Leader's Conference at Headquarters; served on a panel at Remembrance Week at E. P. C.; edited the Pilgrim Action since Jan-uary; acted as Chairman of a group of Holiness ministers in the Lehigh Val-ley known as the Wesleyan Minister's Fellowship; assisted in one wedding and two funerals; dedicated two babies; prayed with several for healing; dedi-cated three churches or annexes; spoke at one ground breaking service; preached at one Youth Rally; conducted four eight-day revivals and three week-end meetings all on the District; organized one church; visited all the churches at least twice except one; assisted in placing 18 pastors; installed 12 pastors; conducted 34 annual business meetings; presided at 113 church board meetings; travelled appro. 35,000 miles in the work of the Lord; took car per-sonally of hundreds of pieces of mail; preached 155 times; made appro. 200 home and hospital calls; and took care of any work that is incidental to this office. My salary is paid in full, all utilities have been furnished and I have been paid on reported mileage at the rate of eight cents per mile, for which I am deeply grateful. My earnings from revivals and ministerial services total-ed $383.16. One week of vacation was enjoyed in the midst of a busy sched-ule. I wish to thank my Heavenly Father for His goodness to me and to my family. This has been a year of good health and spiritual victory. We are sincerely appreciative of all the many kindnesses shown us across the District by so many. My District Council has been a patient and under-standing corps of fellow workers; they are devoted men of God. A special note of appreciation is extended for my highly esteemed brother in the church, Rev. L. W. Drury, who having been my Superintendent for several years, has served with me this year as Assistant Superintendent. His wise council has been a stabilizing influence on me many times. May the Lord raise up more men of his stature to guide the church in its outreach.

RECOMMENDATIONS

The program started last year with a call to prayer — especially the men of the church. The results were most gratifying in some areas. It has


been my privilege to meet with the men of the church of which I am a mem-ber at the early morning watch. Let us revitalize the prayer program.

We have contended that prayer is not enough. Our next move was to follow the General Superintendent's visit with a plan to get the gospel to the hearts and homes of the communities where we are serving. This has met with a degree of success. Following this Conference steps will be taken to make this a very vital part of our church life. It is a matter that must be given careful consideration. I am confident that we do not have the outreach that we should have. Our membership gains are far too small. People can be reached but it requires time and patience. I urge our Pastors to set a good example of visitation. While some men have compiled good records this year others need a little more action in this area. Calling brings results.

I recommend that our preachers read the holiness classics: They will feed your soul and inspire your hearts. Let us be holiness preachers.

This could well be the last gathering before the coming of our wonder-lul Lord. Let us occupy until He comes.

Respectfully submitted,

E. S. RUTHERFORD

REPORT OF PROMOTIONAL SECRETARY OF SUNDAY SCHOOLS

To the Forty-seventh Annual Conference of the Pennsylvania-New Jersey District of the Pilgrim Holiness Church, Sunday School Greetings:

The Sunday Schools of the Pennsylvania-New Jersey District have com-pleted another successful year. I feel that it has been a year of renewed in-terest and cooperation. We had an average attendance of 4115, which is a gain of 149 over last conference year.

Bethlehem, Calvary had the highest attendance gain of 35, with Bridge-ton and Harrisburg, Bethel coming second with a gain of 25.

Lebanon, with a 60% gain, had the highest percentage gain.

Schools to receive honorable mention for their numerical gains are:

Lock Haven 23 Lebanon 15 Stonington 10

Jersey Shore 20 York 14 Glassboro 10

Stroudsburg 15 Cherryville 13 Glen Iron 10

Those to receive recognition for percentage gains are:

York 56% Bridgeton 23% Bethlehem, Calvary 45% Lock Haven 19% State College 43% Salem 19% Harrisburg, Bethel 41% Shafers 16% Jersey Shore 35% Armstrong Valley 15% North Rome 29% Stonington 14% Point Phillips 27% Muir 14% Glen Iron 26% Levittown 13% Port Matilda 25% Ashland 13%

We had 60 schools reporting. 25 schools showed a gain; 30 a loss; 4 re-mained the same, and 1 was new.

In September, Bro. Rutherford and the Sunday School Committee con-ducted six zone rallies. A special program emphasizing loyalty was conduct-ed during October, resulting in the second highest monthly average. The climax of the year was the "Prove Your Love Campaign" conducted during the Sunday School Revival. As a result of this campaign we had the highest monthly average (4747), during April.

I conducted two Sunday School Committee meetings, and was repre-sented at the National Sunday School Leaders Meeting by Rev. John Wiktor-chik.

All indications are that the future is bright for the Pennsylvania-New Jersey Sunday Schools. Many are providing additional Sunday School fa-cilities and accepting the challenge for reaching the unchurched in their community. Our humble prayer is that God will bless in every effort and give us BIGGER AND BETTER SUNDAY SCHOOLS in the days that lie ahead.

YOUTH REPORT FOR 1959-1960

The last year has been an active one for the Penn-Jersey Youth. Ac-cording to Youth Conference action, the District Youth Societies purchased a reconditioned Mimeograph Machine, and with its aid published the first edition of the "Programs Exchange Plan." This is a plan whereby youth presidents may share their best ycung peoples programs with others. On the zone level, zone officers (Vice Chairman, Sec'y. and Treas.) have been elected in all 6 zones to aid the zcne leader in the planning of rallies. On the District level, plans for the 4th Penn-Jersey Youth Camp have been laid for this July 25-29, at the Lamar Free Methodist Campgrounds. Our District


Superintendent, Rev. E. S. Rutherford, will be the evening speaker with the Mastermans as singers. Several of our district pastors and wives will be assisting as counselors and teachers.

As to my personal report; I attended the National Youth Leaders Meet-. ing in Indianapolis last September. I conducted 3 Youth Camp Board Meet-ings and held 3 Local Youth Leaders Meetings for the nomination of zone officers. I conducted 3 District Youth Leaders Meetings; visited 5 zones and preached at 2 rallies. During the past year I traveled 3,400 miles in the interest of Penn-Jersey Youth. I have received my annual salary and all expenses have been paid in full.

Although I have been led to another field, I wish to acknowledge my deepest appreciation to the District Youth Officers: my successor—Rev. Carl Hall; Youth Sec'y.—Rev. David Wooten; and Youth Treasurer—Rev. John Wiktorchik, for their fine cooperation. Also I shall continue to remember the fine fellowship and cooperation of the Penn-Jersey Pastors, Zone Lead-ers and Young People who have helped to make this past year a success.

Signed,

JAMES C. BRILLHART

DISTRICT HOME MISSIONARY REPORT

Greetings to the Forty Seventh Annual Conference of the Pennsylvania New Jersey District. This report will not be at all comprehensive. For the financial receipts and expenditures in this work you must look in the Dis-trict Treasurer's report. For the numerical gain you must look in the sta-tistical report. This report will give you some idea of what the Home Mis-sionary Committee has done in the planning and promoting of this work.

The committee has met four times during the past year, It recommend-ed the continued support of the following churches: Namely: Levittown, Calvary, Lebanon and West Pen Argyl. They made plans for the support of the new church at Hanover and as a result the church has been supplied with a pastor and they have bought a new parsonage. Through action of the District Council Millville and Quaker Gardens have received some help in this their year of need. Through the efforts of the District Superintendent and the Lehigh Zone a preaching point has been started at Quakake with Ronald Adams as pastor. The Lehigh Zone Leader, Rev. Carl Hall, has given much time to develop a work at Wilkes-Barre. The building that was purchased at Port Ann has been remodeled and dedicated. The church has

26 PILGRIM HOLINESS CHUHCH

grown there under the leadership of Rev. Kermit Shrawder until it is now fully organized.

Now, what of the coming year? Plans have been made to help the following churches to this amount if it is needed. Levittown, $100.00 per month; Calvary, $40.00 per month; Hanover, $160.00 per month. Just what help will be given to Quakake is uncertain, at the present time. It will de-. pend upon the outcome of the tent meeting which is to be held there in the near future. Plans have been made to make Wilkes-Barre the new District project for this year. Just how much finance will be needed is hard to ascer-tain at the present time. Most of the Home Missionary Committee feel strongly that this door should be entered and plans are being made to pre-sent this need to the District churches during the month of September. May we all pray and be prepared to help in this new venture of faith.

There is much that might be said of the toil and labor of the faithful pastors in these Home Missionary projects but time nor space will not per-mit. The Lord of the harvest is keeping accurate records and will give a full reward in the final day.

3J11 1RrmL1riam REV. EMMA M. GARMAN,

ordained minister of the Pennsylvania- New Jersey District, was called to her

heavenly home October 2, 1959,

and was interred at Morgan-

town, Pennsylvania

on October 6.

Sister Garman was an ardent and tireless worker until failing health confined to her bed in Berks Heim. Her ministry was one of helpfulness in any form that fell her lot — filling the pulpit in her home church, visita-tion work, besides engaging in mission work in Tyrone and Pikeville, Ken-tucky.

In her Bible this notation was found:

"Born the first time Nov. 10, 1880

Converted Jan, 2, 1895

Sanctified Aug. 12, 1906

Divinely healed Sept. 14, 1907

Baptized Sept. 26, 1908

Received call to Christian work July, 1908"

She was anxious for her home-going day to come, saying, "I prepared for this day and all sickness will be past."

(As amended by the 1956 Conference).

Procedures for Calling a Pastor

15. INASMUCH, as there seems to be considerable confusion in the placing and calling of pastors due to the diversity of methods and procedures being used and insisted upon by the churches,

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that a form of procedure for the call-ing of pastors be established as follows to serve as a guide for the future;

(1). Let all of the call pastor meetings be held during the period in-S volving the first Sunday in April through the second Sunday in April.

(2). If the pastor is not recalled, resigns or does not submit his name for a vote, the result of the meeting should immediately be forwarded to the Superintendent by the Church Secretary.

(3). If the pastor is recalled he can have the legal time established by the manual to accept or reject the call. If he does or does not accept the call he shall immediately inform the Superintendent of his decision.

(4). In the event of the pastors leaving, whatever the circumstances, the Superintendent shall present either in person, writing, or through an author.. ized representative the list of available ministers, with recommendations that naturally fall within his jurisdiction.

(5). It shall be the privilege of the local board and the church to im-mediately call a man on the basis of recommendation, without having a trial message.

(6). In the event a board and church desire a trial message, the board shall make a choice of a candidate. If two or three candidates are chosen they should be designated as first, second, and third choice.

(7). After the trial message of the first candidate there shall be a vote on the candidate within a reasonable length of time, preferably immediately.

(8). If the first candidate is not called, or refuses to accept the call, the same procedure shall be followed with the second candidate or third.

(9). In no case however shall a second candidate be called to preach a trial message until a vote has been taken by the board and the church on the first candidate.

(10). Let all retiring ministers consider their ministry to a church as as ending, according to manual, the Sunday following Conference, and all moving take place the following week. (As amended by the 1q56 Conference).

District Conference Home Missionary Policy

Each zone committee shall present through its chairman any and all home missionary projects to the conference home missionary board for ap-proval.

The Zone Committees shall be authorized to raise their funds for special projects over and above budget apportionment in the zone churches through the plan authorized by the District Council last year, and further, that a record of these zone apportionments to the churches be placed in the Con-ference Journal. All funds shall be sent to the District Treasurer by the local treasurer, specified for said zone.

Should additional funds be necessary in establishing home missionary projects, that said funds be paid out of the District budget home missionary fund. This supplemental financial assistance shall require District Council action and approval.

4. That the election of zone chairmen and the appointment of zone com-mittee members shall be for two years. If for any reason vacancies should occur in zone chairmanship or committeemen, that the vacancy of zone chair-men shall be filled by the District Council, and the vacancy of zone com-mitteemen shall be filled by the conference Home Missionary Board.

5. That each zone chairman shall submit a quarterly report of the zone committee's activities to the District Superintendent.

6. That the District Council shall review any home missionary endeavor of the conference Home Missionary Board and the zone committees.
