CONFERENCE MINUTES
The 56 Annual Conference of the West Virginia District of the Pilgrim Holi-ness Church convened at the camp grounds located at Culloden, West Virginia, August 4, 1q65 at 10:00 a.m. with Rev. Parker Husselton, District Superintendent, in charge. Led in Prayer at the alter by Rev. L. C. Haynes, pastor at Charleston, first song Some Bright Morning led by Rev. Alan Ledford, pastor at Baileys-ville. Qeneral Superintendent, Dr. Melvin H. Snyder, introduced to the conference by District Superintendent who informed us we are to live for two world's. The scripture reading was Revelation 3: 7-12. He tells us all seven messages to the church are all different. Five out of seven of the churches needed correction. In these seven churches we have a description of all church ages. Somewhere a church like this Philadelphia church - (a holy church) can be found.
The Ephesian Church was one of patience, labor, high standing, and unity yet Christ said you have lost your first love and unless that is rekindled in your heart I will take away your candle stick. In this dispensation Christ is still mov-ing among the churches. Dr. Snyder climaxed his message to the conference by elaborating on these four points.
1. He that hath an ear to hear let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
A. Spiritual Conception - God wants to get thru to us when He speaks. He will commend us for everything He can. In His faithfulness He will correct us.
B. He that overcometh - Spiritual Conflict - opposition to Satan and all who align themselves to him. We are to believe God and overcome. To aid people in their growth - to love them, to be like our Lord. Gain thru soul travail - Satan wjll do all he can to keep you from victory but you can overcome.
C. I know thy works - Spiritually Accountability - Jesus says I am looking you over. Four appraisals of us. 1. Enemy, 2. Friends, 3. Ourselves, 4. Our Lord, - First three may be inaccurate but the fourth is definitely accurate. God knows the quanity of our works and He knows the quality of our works - It is not only what we are doing but why we are doing it.
D. Unto the angel of the church. Ministerial Responsibility - Message not given directly to the church not to laymen - not board - not some great saint. But to the pastor of the church - God has appointed that His people shall be shepherd-ed by a God appointed shepherd. We will be saved by hearing preaching - continue to be saved by continuing to hear preaching.
In closing the conference sang I"ll Live for Him Who Died for Me.

Parker Husselton presiding, voted by ballot to request this Con-ference to grant the privilege of changing the name of Campbells Creek Pilgrim Holiness Church.

DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT
To our highly esteemed General Superintendent, Dr. Melvin H. Snyder, Dele-gates, Fellow-Ministers, and Friends of the Fifty-Sixth Annual Conference of the West Virginia District of the Pilgrim Holness Church.
Greetngs in the Name of Jesus our Savior: We stand again at the close of another year of labor, prayer and sacriface,
for Jesus Christ, for Souls, and for the Kingdom.
The reports from the various departments and leaders will indicate the pro-gress, if any, we have made the past year. I feel sure that the growth and de-velopment of your church and Sunday School will be reflected in the manner that you as a pastor have applied the talents and strength with which God has entrust-ed you. We do well to remember that we will not only be called upon to give an Annual Report at a District Conference, but some Day we will be called upon to give an account of the Work of our lifetime. Less than our best will be unsatis-factory then.
As you have already discovered, this is no sham battle; This is real War. "We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wick-edness in high places" Eph. 6:12.
Frustration, Confusion, Explosion, are words that seem to convey some what the common feeling of the masses today. Explosion is a word that is being thrown around. Population explosion, Nuclar explosion, Political explosion, Moral explo-sion, Religious explosion.
Modernism and Compromise threaten our church life; Liberalism and Legal-ism threaten our Spiritual life; Immodesty and Immorality threaten our home life; Carnality and Formality threaten our personal life. We can only have real victory as we each one individually possess The Indwelling Christ. "Greater is He that is within you, than he that is in the world.
When I look over the reports and find that in some cases less than 100 calls per quarter have been made by pastors who are supposed to give full time to their churches, I am not too much surprised to discover that there has been no growth in the Sunday School attendance, and no increase in church membership. As a pastor for many years, I must confess that if the enemy could defeat me in my calling program, he was well on the way to defeat me in the total program of the church.
Too many of our churches cannot or do not fully support their pastors. None of our churches over pay them. Several of our faithful men must find additional assistance to be able to carry on. Our heart felt thanks go out to all our faithful pastors. We are one with them in their problems and burdens. We love and esteem them everyone. We do not know where we would have to go to find a finer, more Godly group of pastors than we have on the West Virginia District.
We believe that there are better days ahead. God has answered prayer this past year. Sure we have had some battles; The sailing has not all been smooth. But Christ has been on board, and the victory is ours. With Jesus we shall win!
I am persuaded that it costs no less to be spiritual and have a spiritual church today than it has ever cost. I am also persuaded that this cost is measured in tears, prayers, labor and selflessness, and holy desire. If we are worldly the aiiswer is simple, we simply are not Spiritual. If we can keep ourselves and our people filled with love, for God and souls, and filled with the Holy Ghost and Fire, the world will not find a welcome among us.
Whatever progress that has been made this year, God deserves the Glory! We want him to have it.
15
On the human side of the ledger credit goes to the District Council that you elected last year. These men have been most cooperative and understanding and have helped to carry the heavy load which we have all shared.
My fine Assistant, Rev. H. H. Harrison has been helpful in all matters where he has been needed.
The work of the District Sunday School Committee has been of the highest order. Rev. Richard Grindstaff, and his committee, Rev. Hughes, Bro. Burch, Bro. Abernathy, are to be commended.
The Youth Department headed by Rev. Alan Ledford, this year, just closed a profitable Youth Camp. His Assistant, Rev. Tom Haynes, Secretary, Rev. Paul Sebree, Treasurer, Rev. Edward Miller are seeking ways and means to improve this part of the District work. Several of our fine young people prayed thru and some were called to special service in these Youth Services.
Sister Husselton who was elected last year as president of the Missionary work of the District, traveled with me in visiting the churches and presenting Missions. World missions, and Home Missions were presented by her in most of the churches. The manrer in which her work was accepted and approved by West Virginia Pilgrims is reflected in the splendid increase in finance and Society mem-bership.
Also, subscriptions for the Pilgrim Holiness Advocate show a substantial gain.
May I Recommend the following goals for the coming year?
10% gain in Sunday School attendance: 10% gain in Church Membership. 10% gain in Attendance at our Youth Camp; 10% gain in pastors salaries.
PROGRESS AMONG THE CHURCHES
Home Missionary Churches:
(Westover) This congregation was organized last month with nine adult members and
four probationary members. The goal for Westover next year is the completion of the superstructure of this basement church; The securing of a parsonage. The future for the new church at Westover looks encouraging.
Bluefield; God has blessed this new church again this past year. Spiritual life and the
finance of the church has shown splendid improvement. This congregation now assumes all of their financial responsibility, except the parsonage rent. The Dis-trict will still carry this another year. Praise God for His blessing On the pastor, Rev. Edward Miller, and his fine people.
Nellis; This congregation dedicated their new church building this spring. They also
purchased a nice parsonage close by the new church. There has been a good in-crease in attendance since occupying their new church building. Rev. Billy Watts and his fine people have done a very commendable piece of work in this endeavor, and the District has reason to praise God and be glad. A Loan from the Pension Plan was obtained to help build this new church.
Point Pleasant: Here we are again engaged in a building program: Construction on the super-
styucture of the church basement will soon be completed. The pastor with his fithful people have done most of this work. Here again we will have a fine church building complete with Sunday School rooms, with a dedicated people who wants to go forward. Rev. Erwin Patrick is the Pastor. A loan from the Pension Plan was also obtained for this construction.
16
Clarksburg: This congregation, with their pastor Rev. R. E. Grindstaff is doing a major
job of remodeling the front main entrance of their church. This has great pro-mise of advancing the interest and effectiveness of this growing congregation.
Charleston: Rev. Tom Haynes, with his people have made some fine improvements in
the sanitary system of their church. Complete remodeling of this area in the base-ment of the church, is highly acceptable.
Three Mile: The reorganization of the church membership, remodeling of the interior of
the church building, growth and increase in Sunday School and church attendance, indicate that God's blessings are on this church and pastor. Rev. L. J. Shinn the good pastor here.
Lens Creek: This church was also recently reorganized, with fifteen adult members. A
substantial increase in Sunday School attendance, and spiritual interest encourges us that there are better things ahead for this fine people. Here again the people want to build Rooms for Sunday School just as soon as the money can be secured. Pray for this church. We as yet have no pastor, here.
Many of our churches completed their improvements and building programs last year, so of course they would not have this to report this year. Almost all of our church enjoyed the rich blessing of God on their efforts this last year. Many had good revivals. Some will show a gain in membership. All have reason to praise God and press on to future victory. Parkersburg First: This church is re-decorated the interior of their sanctuary. Every one who sees this fine improve-ment appreciates the fine leadership Bro. Entzminger is giving this wide awake congregation.

DISTRICT SUNDAY SCHOOL PROMOTIONAL REPORT
To the 56th Annual Conference of the West Virginia District of the Pilgrim Holi-ness Church "Greetings in the Name of Jesus Christ!"
In speaking abut the Sunday School and it's possibilities I would like to quote Dr. P. F. Bresse, "We are but in the morning of our possibilities, and the sun never sets in the morning." The door is wide open for the Pilgrim Holiness Church in West Virginia.
God in His tender mercies has permitted us to finish another year in the work of Sunday School as a District. We have had to both weep and rejoice in this great work. Rejoice, when we would receiye a report telling of God's blessings and Sun-day School scholars getting saved. Weeping, when we would get a card telling of conflict and retreat.
It was my privilege to attend the Sunday School and Youth meeting in Harrisburg, Pa. for the interest of our District Sunday Schools. I have spoken in three Youth Rally's members of S. S. Board. Brother Burch and Brother Aber-nathy also were used as speakers Sunday School meetings.
Sixteen Churches had a gain over last year. We had a small average gain of 21 as a District over 1964. We had an average attendance of 2,257 this year.
I would like to pay tribute to the following churches for percentage gains.
Three Mile Church, Rev. Shinn 25% gain
Morgantown Church, Rev. Marksberry 24% gain
Bramwell Church, Rev. L. K. Davis 22% gain Baileysville Church, Rev. A. Ledford 13% gain Gallagher Church, Rev. Lyons 12% gain Bluefield Church, Rev. Miller 11% gain Blue Jay Church, Rev. David Storey 11% gain Clarksburg Church, Rev. Grindstaff 10% gain Charleston Church, Rev. T. Haynes 10% gain
Thanks for your cooperation. Respectively submitted. R. E. Grindstaff
MISSIONARY SOCIETY PRESIDENT'S REPORT
To Bro. Snyder, our General Superintendent, and members of the West Vir-ginia District.
As we covered the District with Missionary information and appeal, the reception was very encouraging. The Missionary Societies are doing a wonderful work, but, we also found a keen interest, for missions at home and abroad, in churches that do not have a Society.
I have greatly appreciated the interest of Junior Missionary Societies in some of our churches. Good reports are coming from these.
Our District Home Missionary project at Bluefield and Morgantown have both reported progress this year. Faithfulness in prayer for, and giving in "The Penny A Day" fund, have been a major asset. Thanks to our faithful Pilgrims!
Response to the appeal for the "Outgoing Missionary Supply Cupboard" has been very gratifying. The results are yet to be seen on the display tables here, on Missionary Day which is to be Friday, August 6, 1965.
Humbly submitted, Edna Husselton, President Missionary Society of West Virginia

MEMORIALS
In the midst of conference deliberations we pause to pay tribute to the faith-ful Pilgrims, Ministers, and Laymen who this year have been translated from earths vineyard to Heaven's Glories. We know, they are free from their toils and labors and are in conscious bliss with the Master. Though they are gone from the vineyard yet in influence and example they still speak of faithfulness to God and waging the good fight of faith, may their faith inspire us to be true to God and, in our day, complete our course so that we may hear the Master say, "Well done!"

Respectively submitted, Mrs. Gail Nunley Mrs. Basil Entzminger

To the 56th Conference of the West Virginia District Christian Greetings,
It has been our privilege to be the president of the youth this year. We have
traveled over 3,000 mils for the youth. Bro. Grindstaff and I made a trip to
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania for a Youth and Sunday School Leaders meeting. In
June we were at the International Youth Convention at Anderson, Indiana. We
have visited with the exception of two all the zones this year. We enjoyed a good
Youth camp with several finding spiritual help. Trusting the Lord for greater
spiritual things for the Youth of West Virginia.
Yours for Youth,
