A MESSAGE FROM THE ELDERS
From time-to-time we are asked to provide in-
formation and suggestions relative to lecture-
ships and/or seminars that are Biblically sound
and family-friendly. To that end, we are
pleased to inform you of Polishing the Pulpit.
Each August in Sevierville, Tennessee, Polish-
ing the Pulpit is held to teach and encourage
Christians from all over the world. Each day is
filled with classes for ladies, deacons, Bible
school teachers, preachers, elders, and all mem-
bers. There are also classes during the day for
teens, and all ages of children. This year the
dates are Friday, August 12 through Thursday,
August 18. If you cannot spend the week, you
can also register just for the weekend, which
runs from Friday evening through Sunday
morning worship. Speakers are selected from
all over the brotherhood to speak in areas in
which they have special knowledge. Both
Adam and Leah have been invited to speak this

year.
Although the registration fee is not cheap, we are
confident that you will gain much from the pres-
entations and enjoy the fellowship of others of “…
like precious faith,” if you do decide to go. And,
with the week being spent in the Smokey Moun-
tains, you will also enjoy the physical setting!
Starting today, information packets are available
to those who are interested to let you know more
about the cost and other specific information. In
the meantime, please check your calendar, and be
considering this good week of Bible lessons and
practical instruction.
