Excerpt from John and I and the Church When he went to preach in Hope Valley there was little salary attached to the call. Enough, however, for us two and the baby to live upon as comfortably as the majority of people about us. To be sure there were a few who were well to do, living in houses rather pretentious, and dressing expensively. One or two of these fa vored of fortune belonged to our church, or rather to the little hall above the drug store. It was not long before the small room was crowded. More ch airs were brought - not bought. There was little to contribute to the church save chairs and a few lamps. Rents were low - and so was the minister's pay. As to the chairs being brought, John often says that he wishes large churches were furnished in that way. There is a personal satisfaction in providing seats for strangers, just as you would draw the chairs up to the fire in your own house and bid anyone who happened to drop in feel at home. Of course, in general church expenses the seating usually comes in, but we miss the satisfaction of a personal interest in those who occupy the pews. One cannot look about and say to him self, I am glad I brought that chair, for there is Mr. Brotherlyslove, or Mr. Timorous sitting in it. I believe I shall bring another.
