1792 - The United States Mint was Established in Pennsylvania.
1877 - The Birthday of Mordecai Ham.
Here was a great evangelist. He would go to a town, preach in different areas of the city, and conclude that stay in the city by having a big, city-wide revival. He would stay in one location for many months, and would make a tremendous impact for the cause of Christ. His life's motto was "Love all men, fear no man." It was under his preaching that evangelist Billy Graham was converted.
1934 - The Approximate Day of the Ordination of Dr. Bill Dowell to the Ministry.
Dr. Dowell had a miraculous ministry for many years at the High Street Baptist Church in Springfield, Missouri. He is a steadying influence in the Baptist Bible Fellowship. He has been chairman of the faculty at the Baptist Bible College in Springfield, Missouri, and is considered as one of the best preachers in America. He certainly is worthy of our prayers. Let us go beyond this, however, and pray for all of the preachers in the Baptist Bible Fellowship, and for that matter, all the faithful preachers everywhere who proclaim the message of Jesus Christ.
