' Tn recommending that the resigna
tion of Rev. Elnathan Sweet aa assistant

Its pleasure at the fact that he will
continue In the church and Ua work aa

1 "I want this churoh to be my home.
I have no ambition to be the pastor of
the church, for I am aura I could not

going Into business here. "
"I have done thla in ths confident ex
