Re: Great Fellowship meeting
Back in the mid nineteen fifties when I started attending a UPC church in Racine, WI we used to have Fellowship Meetings on Saturdays. I think it was one certain Saturday each month. Members and ministers from Churches from Racine, Kenosha, Milwaukee, Genesee-Mukwanago, South Beloit, and maybe others would meet at one of the churches on Saturday afternoon. During the afternoon service there would be special songs, testimonies, and different ministers speaking briefly. If a missionary was in the area, they would speak. Then we would dismiss for dinner in the church parlor, dining room, or outside. After dinner there would be a Pentecostal Conquerors Service (I spoke in one of them once) and then another service afterward. These were some pretty good times but I do remember when some ministers got angry when the issue of television was discussed (railed on) in one of the evening services.
