Two Church Youth Join
In a jdnt annotmcement, the Rev Father Day, Pastor of St. Mary's Catiiolic Churdi, and the kev. Rob¬ ert L Frank, Pastor of the First Congregational Church, ittfomed their parishoners that starting on Sunday, November 17th, the high school stadents of St. Mary will meet with the high school students of tfae First Congregational Church on a regular and full partidpation basis.
The high sdiool students of fhe First Congregational Church meet in an organization called the Senior Pilgram Fellowship. T^ Senior P.F. meet the flrst and third Sun¬ days of every month..
Both pastors made it clear that this unique relationship between tfae two drarches was nothing new, but simply a continuation of what the early founders of both churches had always done. The forefathers of both churches linked tiieir arms together in service and we ar* ahn- ply doing the aame today.
