Phat ar Oe ee De SW Wednesday, March 27, 1968 Many residents of Placer and Sierra Nevada counties have or will soon receive a gift as members of Baptist churches distribute "twenty-one chapters of the World's Best Selling Book." According to L.L. Richardson, Director of Missions for the Sierra Foothills Baptist Association, copies of the Gospel of John will be distributed by church members as-continuing preparation for the ENCOUNTER Crusade, scheduled in Roseville April 21-26. "This effort is part of our program to bring the good news of Christ to those who do not know the joy of his love. In each person's life, there comes a time when he must say "yes" or "no" to Christ. We are trying to provide the information ‘ on which this decision can be on _ made. "ENCOUNTER with Christ ; : ee can be life's greatest adventure", he said. Reverend Richardson pointed out that the church members who are distributing the booklet will confine their visits to one minute at the door, just enough time to deliver the booklet and a word of greeting. The specially prepared editions of the Gospel of John are from the American Bible Society translation, "Today's ModNEVADA CITY FIREMEN simulate an event that happens many times during the year when the rescue squad and car are called into action. The car, purchased in 1953, has made over 1,000 calls and been responsible for the saving of many lives. In 1967, 61 rescue calls were made. An example of rescue activity concerned an Air Force pilot transferred west from Ohio. Driving all the way, the man became exhausted and parked his car along Highway 20-40 to rest. He turned on the heater and, some time later, fumes rendered him unconscious and he slumped onto the steering wheel against the horn. A person was attracted to the car by the horn's blowing, and the Nevada City rescue squad used a resuscitator to save his life. Shown here are Firemen Ted Sigourney, Melo Pello, Bruce McKenzie and Jim Abraham with young Mike Pello on the ‘litter. The rescuers do not confine their work just to Nevada City. They have answered calls in many areas, wherever people are in trouble. The Nevada County Nugget 5 Residents distributing ‘World's Best Seller’’ern English Version."
