Pentecostal church is looking for logo
CLINTON - The Clinton Pentecostal
Church here has come up with an innovative
way of letting the -community know the
Pentecostal church is still very much alive
in town. They are having a contest to design
a new church logo. It's open to everyone and
the winner will receive a cash award of $50.
Their church building is being sold, and
the congregation is holding Sunday Services
in the auditorium of Clinton Public School.
Their new pastor, Rev. Doug. Richards,
says this is not the closing of the church, but
it is, in fact, part of their rebuilding pro-
gram. Land is to be purchased in town and
plans will get under way to build a modern
church building .. _.
According to Pastor Richards, "the logo
contest is one way of letting the community
know that Clinton Pentecostal Church is a
community church, involved in the care and
concerns for the community it serves. We
also want to present a forward looking im-
age which will help us relate to today's
society.
The church wants to be visible and for that
reason, it wants to be readily recognizable
simply as "CPC."
The contest is open to anyone. The rules
are simple - the entry must incorporate the
letters CPC and it must be the original work
of the contestant.
The contest closes on Thanksgiving Sun-
day, October 12. Entries may be given to
Pastor Richards or mailed to Box 448, Clin-
ton. Pastor Richards suggests you might
even want to bring them to one of the church
services at Clinton -Public School on Sunday
at 11 a.m. or at 7 p.m.
