The detailed program for the upcoming semi-annual meeting of the Texas Baptist Convention, Women's Auxiliary Convention, and the Laymen's Movement, held in Kilgore, Texas in March 1938. The work opens with a call to "Hear the One Hundred Voice Choirs" at the opening night celebration. This is followed by the detailed schedule of events for the convention, broken down by daily morning, afternoon, and evening sessions, and the same for the Women's Convention and Young People's Department. Each aspect of the convention includes speeches, songs, readings, devotionals, discussions, a "Quiet Hour," and so forth. The inside front cover features an introductory passage about the new president of the Baptist Convention, Reverend A.W. Pryor, along with a small portrait of him. The text reports that Pryor is "touching the churches and the Pastors of Texas in a very fine way" and is "greatly inspired because of the fine spirit of co-operation." We could locate no copies of this particular semi-annual session program in OCLC.
