Excerpt from The Presbyterian Church of Frankford: 1770-1920 History is always a fascinating study. To search through the archives of forgotten days, to call before us the men and women who served their day and generation faithfully and well, and to whose labors and sacrifices we are indebted for the build ing of the church whose One Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary it is our privilege to celebrate, was an agreeable task. The history of the Presbyterian Church of Frank ford is one in which the present generation may have a pardonable pride. For an institution to attain to the venerable age of one hundred and fifty years, its foundations being laid before America became a nation, is so rare as to justify more than passing notice.

Excerpt from The Old and the New, 1743-1876: The Second Presbyterian Church of Philadelphia; Its Beginning and Increase The mystic seed of truth may be small as a mustard seed, but, like it, will grow into trees in whose branches the birds of heaven may light, or make forests from which cities shall be built. Cities rise and spread from the Indian's wig wam or the hunter's cabin. Churches grow from prayer meetings in a private house, or mission schools in a neglected neighborhood. The most powerful organizations have their infancy and growth. The beginning of the Second Church lies far back, and for its real origin we must inquire of the former age, and search among the fathers. The organized church life began in seventeen hundred and forty-three, but the causes which resulted in its organization must be sought still farther away.

Excerpt from The Centennial History of First Presbyterian Church, Hickory, N. C., 1873-1973 One hundred years ago, North Carolina was struggling to meet the demands and excesses of Reconstruction. Money was scarce, prices were high and an attitude of demoralization and greed prevailed throughout the South. Yet despite the dark clouds which hung heavy over our state and her southern sisters, the light of the Christian spirit burned steady. As the state attempted to reorganize its governmental structure, the Presbyterian Synod of North Carolina was going about the business of reviving the Lord's work. Recognizing the temper of the times the synod focused its attention upon Christian families, calling upon them to look to their children and to teach them the fear of God and obedience to lawful authority. Following up on its appeal to families, synod next turned its attention to all people, calling them to prayer and to-arise and rebuild the waste places, and urging them to the support of evangelists and missionaries. Although it was synod that was pricking the consciences of North Carolina Presbyterians, it was on the level of presbytery that the responsibility for mission and evangelization was directed.
