MIDWAY PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

TO HAVE NEW

SUNDAY SCHOOL AND SOCIAL HALL.

A “ Lords Auction” last Saturday at Midway Presbyterian , two miles out of

Rehoboth Beach, netted the church almost $1400 toward construction of the new

Sunday school and social hall building.

The 'auction' brought many country folk together to bid on a wide assortment

farm products, implements, house hold items and food. Mrs Anna Thompson, church

secretary also announced that cash donations brought the total up to $2350.

Work on the new structure will begin immediately . It is to be a 24 x 48 foot

building of cement block there on the church property and will have a cellar.

The weekend closed with home coming service and a 25 year anniversary for

the Rev. Wiliam Leishman of Lewes. . The guest speaker was Rev. Roy Tawes

and special music was furnished by Frank Futcher of Newark and Mr & Mrs Paul Powell

of Delmar.
