SHILOH BAPTIST CHURCH
The Shiloh Baptist Church was organized in 1885 in the
home of the late Calvin and Mary Bryant, the parents of the late
Bessie Brown and George Calvin Bryant. A small group of Christians
guided by the Spirit of God prayerfully directed the purchase of
a parcel of land No. 206 on the south side of Depot Street in
\fj( Mocksville, North Carolina and erected a building there. Here
they served for many years.
The late Brother Gideon Brown, husband of Bessie Brown,
was among the first deacons. As time passed on, others were added.
nong these were Brothers Anderson Clement, Rufus Furches, R. J.
Dulin, G, N. Smith, J. F. Brown, B. J, Bittings, L. R. Howell,
C
B. T. Ifody, L, R. Dulin, George Ilairston and Paul Johnson. The
Rev. Wise H. Hairston of Cedar Grove was pastor imtil 1915I the
Rev. D. W. Montgomery succeeded him and served from 1915-1939
during which time the church was remodeled and enlarged. Hanes
Chair and Table Company donated two dozen chairs for use by the
choir. (Note: Those are still being used.) The late Mrs. Frances
Clement donated a wall clock to the church. Many new members
were added to the church during this period.
After the death of Rev. Montgomery, the Rev. Hargrove
of Salisbury, North Carolina, became pastor. His term and life
were short-lived. And in 1945# the present pastor. Rev, G. W,
V Campbell of Winston-Salem was made pastor. There have been
' vs
numerous oral and written expressions concerning the very fine
^ work of Rev. Campbell.

Under his leadership, the church erected a parsonage on ground
donated by the late Mrs. Jessie Bailey, the present value of which
is approximately $ •
The members and Rev. Campbell continued to worship in the Old
Shiloh until 19— when Rev. Campbell and a group of Christian
followers decided to move thcdlr place of worship. Prayer-»fully, the^t'
sold the site of the old church to the Mocksville Peed Mills, Xnc.
The Feed Mill in turn purchased the beautiful homesite of the Rev.
and Mrs. t. R. Howell and deeded it and monev to the church where
the present beautiful church stands as a monument to God, its pastor
and members. It exemplifies the extra*ordinary leadership portrayed
by Rev. 6. W. Campbell and his humanitarian spirit and pleasing per
sonality. Many are inspired to rush to the church where everybody
is somebody.
Rev. Campbell is married to Mrs. Minnie Grace Martin Campbell
of Wilkes County. They are parents of five daughters! Mesdames Naomi
and Magalene Wilkins, Queen Bellamy, Elizabeth Dulin and Miss Rachel
Campbell. Four sonst Odell, George, Jr. Talmadge and Garfield.
God give us men.
A time like this demands strong minds.
Great hearts, true faith and ready handss
Men who the lust of office do not kill|
Men who the spoil of office cannot buyf
Men who possess opinions, and a will;
Men who have honor; Men who will not lie;
Men who can stand before a demagogue
And denounce his treacherous flatteries
Oavie County PuDiic LiDiai v

Without shrinking*
God give us men*
Men like Campbell* Men who serve not
For selfish booty^ but real men
Courageous^ who flinch not at duty|
Men of dependable characterj
Men of sterling worth*
Then wrong will be redressed and
Right will rule on earth
God give us men*

Shiloh Baptist Church, 1885"I987
1885-1987 " One hundred two years - more than a century of
Christian witness by the ministers and congregation of Shiloh Baptist
Church.
A glance in retrospect tel ls us that the church has grown from
a membership bel ieved to have been ten or twelve to the present mem
bership of one hundred forty, the largest in the history of the
church. In physical facility the church has expanded from a very
small frame house to the present beautiful and adequate edifice.
From a program consisting primarily of a preaching service, the church
has developed a very complete program of worship, teaching, prayer,
service, and fellowship which has enriched the l ives of this congre
gation for four generations and the life of the greater community.
This church, a congregation of bel ievers in Christ, through whom
He works and who are His workmen, has been God's instrument in Mocks-
ville, in Davie County, in North Carol ina, and wherever His name is
known - a proud legacy indeed.
May the publ ishing of this historical account serve both to
recall and to Inspire this congregation of the Shiloh Baptist Church
to continued and even greater service so that future generations may
also be worthy to claim "Well done, thou good and faithful
servant . .

History Of Shlioii Baptist Church
In ihc latter monilKs of 1885 a
sinnll band or Christians met in the
home of the late Calvin and Mary
Bryant and organized Shiloh Bap
tist Church. Perhaps services were
held in the various homes or.the
members ror the next two or three
years. The first pastor was the Rev.
Wise Hairston or the Fork Church
Community.
On December 5, 1887, the
members purchased 14 acre l.'ind
adjoining the B. Bailey and Nan
cy Clement estates from W.J.
Williams and wire Por S25.00 and
built a church. The endorsers or the

son, George Humphrey and Louis
Miller.
Gideon Brown was among the
first deacons. His wire Bessie,
daughter of Calvin and Mary
Bryant was the first organist. Other
deacons were Anderson Clement.
Rurus Furchcs, Robert J. Dulin.
George W. Smith, John Frank
Brown, John Dillard, Luther
Howell. Lcroy Dulin, George
Hairston and Paul E. Johnson. Ttie
Rev. Wise Hainston ended his
pastorate at Shiloh in 1915.
Dr. David W. Montgotncry or
Salisbury. N.C. succeeded Rev.
Hairston. Dr. Montgomery, a stu
dent rrom Shaw University, was
also principal or the Consolidated
Black Elementary School.
In 1934, Mrs. Jessie Bailey
donated to Shiloh 14 acre more or
less or land for one dollar and other
considerations. During this time
the church was enlarged and
remodeled. Hannah Hendricks
Brown, wire or Lawrence Brown

(NOTE: These arc still being us

After the term or Rev. Mon

ly, they sold the site or the old

ried in their hand, beams, studs and
other materials salvtigcd ror the
present church. Later he entered a
plea ror new pews and pulpit rur-
niture, and he, along with his
beuutiiully spirited wire, led the
contributions with the purchase of
two pews.
Rev. Campbell became ill and
tendered his resignation in 1972.

Black History
Program Set
At Shiloh
Dr. A.O. Walker and program
commiucc al Shiloli Baplisl
Church. 321 Dcpol St.,
Mocksvillc, announce a Black
History Festival to be held Sunday.
Feb. 26, at 3 p.m.
This program will not only
celebrate the unique contributions
made by Afro-Americans to the
history of this country and world,
but it will also emphasize the need
to continually strive for more .siKial
and political change.
The featured speaker is the Rev,
Aldolphus Brown, 123 Rolling
Hills, CraRwood Development.
Brown has several articles per
taining to civil rights published and
is the author of a book titled: Are
We A People? It is a comparison
of the attitudes and behaviors of
Black Americans before and after
the Civil Rights Movement.
One chapter deals with paren
ting. Brown says, "Wc cannot
continue to stand and watch our
children destroy themselves
without assuming some respon
sibility to evoke a change."
His ideas for improving the
parent/child dilemma arc outlined.
He further states that if the Afro-
American does not do more toward
moving himself economically, his
status will fall in the classiHcation
of "from the auction block to the
auction block."
The award-winning Cedar Creek
Gospel Singers will provide the
music. This choir features soloists
Jeannelte Parks. Lisa Parks and
Sarah Scott.
A reception will follow in Smith-
Grace Fellowship Hall. At this
time W.B. Malachi, artist of
Winston-Salcm. will display some
of his art and he will do a charcoal
portrait of one of the church
members.
Malachi staled in an interview
with Tom Sicg. Winxlon-Salem
Jountol columnist, that when he is
not painting, he is talking about
drugs. "Most of tliese people (drug
users) are much like babies, except
that they would rather die before
they would cry," he said.
He has written a series of sim- '
pie essays on drugs under the title
"Knock On Every Door."
"They won't say, '1 give up.
They won't say. "I need help." "
Malachi learned that lesson in
one of life's harder ways, coming
here from .South Carolina as a
troubled youngster who had done
two stretches in a reformatory by
age 14 and proceeding to go
through life hard knock by hard
knock.
He served in the Army during
the latter part of World War H. he
said, and came home to find no
future waiting for him.
He also realized that he had
become hooked on alcohol and
checked into a treatment center,
where he learned to be weak, to
surrender and to cry without
shame, he said.
"When 1 was a little boy. my
father would beat me terrible if he
caught me crying when 1 hurt
myself. I got confused. 1 just got
so I could not cry for so many
years. When 1 cried, it was good.
I found out in treatment that I just
had to let my.scif go." Malachi
said.
He likes people. And even after
doing as many as 250.(K)0 draw
ings and paintings — his own
estimate - he still enjoys trying to
capture people on paper or canvas.
His main purpose now. though,
is to carry his message to people
who need it, or may need it soon.
"We're not just hearing about
crime more." he said. "We're get
ting more. 1 know there arc many
more suicides and family-member
slayings and child molcstings since
drugs have become so popular in
our country."

New NAACP President Starts Initiatives
Education, Economic Empowerment, Health Care Top List
By Mike Earnhardt
Davie County Enterprise Record
His ideas ace as broad as the
smile that covers his face.
And when Savalas Squire Jr.
showed up at his first NAACP meet
ing in Davie County with a laptop
computer and a handful of ques
tions, officers were impressed.
Squire was soon the new presi
dent, the furst the group had since
Marcus Williams left the job earlier
this year.
That suits Squire just fine.
As the new pastor at Shiloh Bap
tist Church on Depot Street in
Mocksville, he believes community
involvement is important for a pas
tor.
"If a person is called to the pas
toral ministry, their calling goes be
yond the church," he said.
Squire wasted no time in orga
nizing the dedicated group of local
NAACP volunteers. They've al
ready started on three initiatives:
education, economic empower
ment, and health care.
In partnership with several pre
dominately black churches, after-
school programs called "learning
centers" are being established.
"We'll be reinforcing what they
learn during the day ... and work
ing on their test-taking skills."
The response from schools, vol
unteers and the churches has been
great. He's also working with
Livingstone College to bring a
NASA program here that not only
reinforces science skills, but tracks
students to follow their progress.
In conjunction with the after-
school learning centers, Squire and
the NAACP are planning what he
calls "family cafes," an informal
gathering for parents.
"One of the problems with mi
norities is we don't show up at
school until there's a problem. We
want to teach parents how to be
come involved in education."
The economic empowerment
initiative will help minority busi
nesses" stay in business by provid
ing information on how to operate
and manage such endeavors.
Individuals will be taught how
to manage money, as well, espe
cially how to save. Minorities too
often are "over consumers," Squire
said. Such savings could be used to
increase the home ownership rate.
The health initiative will bring
about an awareness of the issues that
affect everybody.

NAACP President, Shiloh Pastor
Wastes No Time Getting Involved
Continued From Page 1
"There are many who do not
have adequate health care.
We're going to work with lo
cal agencies to work with us for
health fairs and screenings. We
want people to have access to
quality health care."
If that list isn't enough,
there are long-term goals for
Davie's NAACP. Benefits for
veterans should be secured. A
fair housing committee needs
to be established to ensure fair
lending, and renting, practices,
Squire said.
Although it sounds like a
lot. Squire said the volunteers
are eager to work.
"We want to make sure that
whatever we do, we do it in an
excellent way. We would rather
do one thing well than try too
many things and drop the ball.
"Many people want their
pastor to be a part of the com
munity."
Squire and his wife,
Stephanie, his two sons,
Jemeke, II,and Savalas Jr.,2,
are enjoying life in Mocksville,
a small, safe community com
pared to their prior residence in
Winston-Salem.
Squire had been organist
and music director at Shiloh
Baptist Church in Winston-Sa
lem - a church he grew up in.
His grandfather, with whom he
spent most of his young years,
was a deacon there, the custo
dian and choir director.
Squire, 29, started playing
the organ at church at age 16,
and by age 18, he was hirectas
a: full-time employee.
At age 21, he began think
ing.
"I was looking at aspects of
my life. I knew the Lord was
pulling me into the ministry."
He enrolled at Wmston-Sa-
lem Bible College, and soon
thereafter became youth min
istry director at Shiloh in Win
ston-Salem.
The moderator, who was
also the pastor, of the Baptist
association of which both
Shiloh churches belong, asked
Squire about his plans. "He said
you should be looking for a
church."
He visited Shiloh in Mocks
ville, and was a guest pastor
while the congregation was
looking for a new spiritual
leader. ;
"We just grew on each
other," Squire said. "Every
thing is going good. I was ex
cited about this opportunity to
pastor. I knew this was a good
place and part of God's will to
do this job."
