Eugen Bannerman gave the children little candies with sayings on them. The lectionary reading was Genesis 2: 15-1. The gospel reading was Matthew 4: 1-11 and the responsive reading Psalm 32. Rev. Bannerman’s message to the adults was The Little Brown Church. Rev. Bannerman told the story of the congregationalists settling in the U.S.A, in 1855. By 1860 a family gave them some land in a valley and someone else gave them some lumber to build their church. Another donated brown paint which was about the only colour you could get after the Civil War. William Pitts wrote the song Church in the Wildwood for this church. In 1862 the family moved to Bradford. Pitts attended the Bradford Academy. He later sold his song for $25 which paid for his Doctorate Degree. There are five to 10 weddings a week in the Church in the Wildwood and about 75,000 visitors come every year. FARM SAFETY FACT Did you know?
