BEGINS HIS WORK IT

Rev. M. S. Decker Preaches a Pertinent, Practical, and Impressive Discourse To His a

Large Congregation

Rev. M. S. Decker, (he new pastor of the Christian church, gave the first discourse of his pastorate this city Sunday morning, to a large and attentive audience. He designated it a "talk"'- rather than a sermon. He took as his theme, the second verse of the second chapter of Corinthians, which reads as follows: "For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and Him Crucified."

He said, in substance: "A church expects a minister to be four distinct men in one first they expect .him to make as many speeches as

REV. M. S. DECKER

a lawyer as many calls as a doctor do as much writing as an editor, and possess the executive ability of the best business man in the congregation." That he did not come to Greenfield to work for the fchurch, but with it to reach out after those who were not in the church. That he desired the church to forget its past history, if there was ever anything that was not pleasant and agreeable, and begin the labor and work of this pastorate from this time as a brandrnew proposition. While he will not listen to any gossip, he desired and expects the people to come to the church with their own individual •cares and burdens, and he will seek to help them. During his pastorate and stay in Greenfield, he expects to be a gentleman first, then a 'Christian, and if there is any time ieft he will be a preacher. He considers the great curse of the church today, and the thing that hinders its progress the most, is not erroneous teaching within, or persecution without, but the indifference of its members.

His preaching will be positive unot his intention to magnify his own •or any other man's doubts, but he /believes in the Bible and will proclaim its messages. He expects to .toe on the job 365 days in the year and the remainder of the time he ..will fish. He also expects every member of the church to be a booster.

The discourse was well received and approved by the members who were evidently well pleased. The spirit of the first service indicated ., that the congregation was ready for active, earnest church work. T,he music was fine. Miss Williams, of the city schools, sang a solo in an impressive manner. *. Rev. Finley B. Sapp, of Fargo, N.

D., preached in the evening. He was formerly a popular pastor of the church and has many friends in the city. His sermon was an excellent one, delivered in his characteristic manner.
