Young Women’s Christian Council (YWCC)
President: Sis. G. Simmons
Vice President: Sis. S. Fanniel
The YWCC is a group of women from the age of nineteen to an indefinite age. This group is too old for the Purity class and too young for the Mother’s board. She has possibly overcome the stupidity of adolescence and is tempted to lean on her own strength when she faces her college years, marriage, motherhood, and very soon the summit of leadership.
The prime purpose is to gather these young women together and channel their minds into productive motives of Christian endeavor. Here they are trained to be homemakers, lovers of their husband, auxiliary leaders, prayer warriors, and lovers of God.

Sunday School Department
President: Brother V. Coker
Vice President: Brother D. Tatmon
The Sunday school is far the GREATEST school in the world. This is where we learn God’s word and how to receive eternal life. To be a Sunday school worker is one that carries much more honor than usually recognized. One of the greatest honors that can be bestowed upon a saint is to be addressed as a “Sunday School worker”. Remember: If you know your bible the Sunday school needs you; but if you don’t know your bible, YOU need the Sunday school.
