Commendations
Douglas Ibbotson 1932
L&L 1932-7: 1441 W. 103rd St., Washington Heights Gospel Hall, Chicago, IL:
"To saints gathered to the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, greetings. Our beloved brother Douglas Ibbotson, after much prayer and waiting upon the Lord, has been led to give his whole time to the ministry. Like Timothy, he has known the Holy Scriptures from his childhood and through them was brought to the knowledge of Christ as his Savior in early youth among Christians gathering to the name of our beloved Lord Jesus.
He has endeared himself to the Lord's people by his consistent walk and testimony and his labors in Sunday School and Gospel work. His dear wife has been equally diligent in seeking by every service she could render to further the work of the Lord in Sunday School and visitation among the saints.
They purpose, D.V., to labor in the unevangelized parts of this country, those out-of-the-way places where the need is great, but the laborers few. We heartily recommend them to the Lord and the Word of His Grace and bespeak for them a large place in the loving fellowship and prayers of the Lord's people for the work they are undertaking in His name.
Signed in behalf of the Washington Heights Assembly: W.G. McCartney, R.W. Trotter, Arthur Miller, Geo. F. Mizen, Roy W. Stott, Roy J. Mills & Christian Petersen.
