These are questions man has asked since God first spoke to Him - Questions that must be an­ swered! This message came from Pastor M.E. Werry of the First Baptist church. Far too long, prayer has been overlooked as a subject for a definite film study...but* now KCRF Films presents its newest release "The Power of Prayer." The opening moments of the film are spent in Israel, examining thousands of years of Jewish history and how they pertain to prayer. "The Power of Prayer" features some of the most well- r e s p e c t e d . C h r i s t i a n spokesmen in America such as. Dr. W.A. Criswell. Dr. John F. Walvoord. Josh and Dottie McDowell. Chaplain Ray and Dr. and Mrs. Howard Hen­ dricks. These men and women will be sharing what the Bible says as to the how and why of prayer. They'll also share their own personal experiences of the times of victory, frustration and confusion. The public is asked to join the congregation at the First Baptist church. 509 North Front street.
