1960-1969

This recording begins with singing and Dell announcing the session is taking place at the Shady Grove COGIC church. This is followed by prayer, with men testifying about God�s grace and praying for the church. Dell then mentions about stepping in for Elder F.W. Rhodes after he died, and talks about being a leader in the north Georgia COCIC � where he learned to be a leader. He announces he will be on TV, and notes that his popularity means that God is blessing the church. He speaks about the current time, and how he is now �Black� and not �Negro�, even speaking at an integrated meeting. Lastly, a woman testifies about the church and knocking on doors to spread the word of God.
