- Description:
- This item contains the minutes of the Welsh Tract Old School Baptist Church's bicentennial celebration. The Welsh Tract Old School Baptist Church was initially established in Wales among sixteen Baptists in the year 1701. Thomas Griffith was their first pastor, and the new congregation decided to move to the United States, arriving in September of 1701. They settled first near Philadelphia at Pennepek. The church experienced growth during this time and then in 1703 the church moved to New Castle County, Delaware, where they settled on land known as “Welsh Tract.” The church continued to grow and by the mid 1700s began to send members to start a number of churches in other regions of the United States. Welsh Tract Old School Baptist Church was one of five original churches to form the Philadelphia Association until 1794 when they along with a few other churches requested to join the Delaware Association. Welsh Tract is said to be the oldest Old School Baptist church in the United States.

- Description:
- Jerry L. Niswonger was Assistant to the President for Student Development. The service opens with a welcome of the faculty for the summer school session and a few announcements (00:00-05:59). Niswonger designates a portion of time for the sharing of prayer requests (06:00-11:50). Niswonger begins his sermon by reading 2 Timothy 3:14-17 (11:51-12:47). His first point is that the scaffolding of religion that is put around God must be torn down because God is not content to be trapped (12:48-18:34). His second point is that the foundational principles of the old scaffolding should be used to build the new religious structure (18:35-20:16). Niswonger’s final point is while the new religious structure is being built, we are to remain in the old building for a time pursuing the mission of the new building (20:17-23:02). Niswonger ends the service with a word of prayer (23:03-23:42).

- Description:
- Hugh O. Chambliss was Executive Director of Missions for the Madison Baptist Association in Huntsville, AL. The service begins with a word of prayer (00:00-00:50). The speaker reads Psalm 33:8-12 (00:51-01:32). Ginger Smith sings a song (01:33-04:23). Chambliss begins his sermon by speaking of the joy of being on Southeastern’s campus for the summer term (04:24-05:49). He states that the subject of his sermon is on the minister and his community, and he describes his home community of Huntsville, AL (05:50-10:23). Chambliss first point is that the minister influences the conscience of the community, and he uses the Presbyterian minister Brother Bryan as an example of a minister who held influence over the conscience of the city of Birmingham (10:24-14:40). His second point is that the minister is the counselor of the community (14:41-18:42). His third point is that the minister is the community’s comfort (18:43-22:27). Chambliss concludes his sermon by arguing that the minister can take on the three roles of conscience, counselor, and comforter of the community because he is called by God to take on these roles (22:28-25:30).
