Hon Wmn Harrison of Oklahoma City spoke to the Harrison Address Business League at the Dreamland Theatre last Sunday.

Parsonage Gift Party by Century Club Victorious Welcome

Last Thursday night the First Baptist parsonage hosted a Century Club gathering that showered the pastor and his wife with food and thanks.
