This book my father started to write before his death in 1993.

This book is about the first years of his 30 years of ministry within the South Carolina Conference of the Methodist Church. His appointments included: Waterloo - Soule Chapel, Galloway Memorial, Bath - Clearwater, Monaghan - Poe and Lupo Methodist. It was his desire for one day for them to be published. "He wanted to impart wisdom to those of us who have followed in the ministry."

To help fulfill his desire to have his manuscript published: I have taken a copy of my father's manuscript and have sought to put them down in book format for him. He only was able to complete the first few years of his ministry down on paper before his death. Maybe that too was all in God's timing and the first years is what God desired to be recorded for others to learn.

At the end of this book I have included the last sermon he gave just less than a month from his death. Also, I have shared a few memories I want to share with readers.
