Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-30841 CALIFORNIA YOUNGSTERS AID PHOENIX CHURCH PHOENIX, Ariz. -- The Primera Iglesia Methodist Mexican church at Phoenix, Ariz., got a “new look”, thanks to the energy of 30 teenagers from North Ridge, Calif. The young people answered a call from the Rev. William Howard of the North Ridge Methodist church to use their Easter vacation by taking a bus-trip to the Phoenix church, which was badly in need of paint and other repairs. The young people raised money for the journey through spaghetti dinners and other fund-raising activities and spent a week in Phoenix not only renovating the Primera Iglesia church but, according to Mr. Howard, gaining experience in Christian fellowship and understanding. The California clergyman (at far right, upper left photo) directs paint-mixing chores, with Harold Gifford (standing, left), Methodist Youth Fellowship councilor from California, and the Rev.

Title: Injunction served during racial prayer service.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-29735 INJUNCTION SERVED DURING RACIAL PRAYER SERVICE CLARKSDALE, Miss. -- One of the few Clarksdale, Miss., white men to step inside the city’s First Baptist church during a prayer service for racial unity was a county deputy sheriff. He served an injunction on two of 36 ministers from several states who traveled to Clarksdale at the request of the National Council of Churches’ special Commission on Religion and Race. The injunction, while not applicable to the religious observance in the Negro church, was a sweeping ban against virtually all types of integration demonstrations. None of the approximately 20 white Clarksdale clergymen took part in the prayer service. The NCC commission and Clarksdale Negro ministers held the service in an effort to establish communication with local authorities. The injuction was handed here to the Rev. Brad Minturn, left, a Protestant Episcopal minister of Silver Spring, Md., and the Rev. Gerald Forshey, a leader of the Interracial Council of Methodists in Chicago, Ill.

Title: Church picketed in Houston.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-29689 CHURCH PICKETED IN HOUSTON HOUSTON, Tex. -- An “all-out” picketing campaign against the 3,600-member all-white First Baptist church in Houston, Texas, was launched by the Congress for Racial Equality. The pastor of the church is Dr. K. Owen White, president of the 10-million-member Southern Baptist Convention. Though Negroes have been admitted to worship services, pickets protested the denial of six membership applications. IN a statement issued after the first application was refused, Dr. White said that in view of existing racial tensions it was believed wise to continue present membership policies.
