Yozsa, Sandor

The new year was started with a weekly prayer meeting. The meetings were held at different people's houses. Brother Kish started the meeting with a song and prayer. We listened to Brother Hamula's treasury report. The last year's collection amounted to $573.05 and after that expenses, it left $128. Brothers Haydn and Hamula offered their tireless services to install the furnace, and the whole church was thankful. Brother John Haydn suggested that last year's officers stay on. This was voted "down". Nominated were:

Alex Butti - Young People's president
Elsie Cerlan - "for all" presidents
Alex Yosa - Sunday School Superintendent
Helen Berta - Sunday School Treasurer
Sister Berta - Sunday School teacher
Alex Butti - Sunday School teacher
John Muha and Andrew Berta - ushers

Paul Butti suggested that this year we should give more willingly so that the $18 left in the till (could be added to) so they could pay for some things. He said because Brother Kish's pay was cut by the state mission board by $5, we should supplement that $5.00. With this, the church could pay him $20 a month. After this, Brother Hamula thanked everybody for the Christmas gift. With this, the meeting was adjourned.
