Editor:

On behalf of our youth group and the entire Banner congregation, we thank you so much for the publicity you afforded us in the Mountain Press community calendar for our 10th annual youth group auction.

When questioning some folks that we had not seen for a while, they told us they had learned of this event in the calendar.

You are indeed a community minded newspaper, in the strictest sense of the word. Continued support such as yours will enable our youth group to continue assisting other agencies serving the less fortunate in our area.

We are proud of the giving nature exhibited by our youth. Without the continuing support of our business friends, they would be unable to lend their assistance to other agencies where needed,

Thank you for your assistance; you are appreciated. May God richly bless you.

Jerry Ogle, Pastor
