Offering Plates for the Sunday School. Dear Jesus, we know you had little to claim, that you hadn't a house or a bed to your name when you walked the hot highways so dusty and brown, and blessed little children in village and town. And we learn, thought we can't understand all the way, that you gave us far more than we'll ever repay: so we bring you our pennies and nickels and such – (For of course little children don't have very much)---- In envelopes, not loose in pocket or purse, So we cannot forget them or lose them or worse. So less now our gifts, gentle Jesus, we pray, and the plates that are bearing them safe on their way. Donor: Mr. and Mrs. Elliot D. Sleight, in loving memory of their son Roger Barentsen Sleight. Dedicated on Children's Day, June 8, 1952
