We would like to welcome Dr. and Mrs. Leonard Dupree to Ebenezer Baptist Church. Dr. Dupree is serving as interim pastor and preached his first sermon Sunday as such. We had a good attendance and a fellowship meal after the service. He and Mrs. Dupree are from Plains but retired to Thomson. Our fall festival was a great success Saturday evening. There was a huge turnout for that too. We would like to thank each and every one who had a part in making the festival a success. Linda, Johnny, and Laurie Shelton were the chairmen and worked really hard on this festival. I went to my doctors in Augusta this week and also visited in Lincolnton. On Sunday I had dinner with my parents. My sister and brother-in-law, Nan and Mickey Goff of McCormick, joined us. We always enjoy "going home" and getting together.

We had a cold Saturday and Sunday but it's time for that.
