' : ) Cleiyy Couple Husband-Wife Ministering In Davie By Jeanne Houpe Davie County Enterprise Record On lite day when most families arc spending time together, they have little time to see each other. Sunday is their busiest day. When Oak Grove United Method ist Church welcomed new pastorDavid Talbert in Juiie, they knew they would rarely sec their minister's wife - espe cially on Sunday. At Ihesame time herhusband began his duties at OakGrove,TammyTalbett was beginning her service to the Farm- ington charge as pastor at Farmington, Wesley Chapel and Mt. Olive United Methodist churches. WhileTammy serves her three con gregations on a schedule that includes two sermons every Sunday morning and tliree sermons on one Sunday each month, David is busy with Sunday functions at Oak Grove. According to the Talberts, tlieir churches have also had to do some adjusting to the situation. 'Thechurcheshave been real good to work with us," she said. Tammy is the first female pastor to serve the Farmington charge, and the Talberts are Davie County's Hrst Meth odist clergy couple. According to David, this is the Hrst timeOakGrovehashad a minister who did not reside in their parsonage. Yhe Talberts live in the Farmington parson age and use Oak Grove's as an office. Tammy said their district supervi sor decided which parsonage they would live in. The Farmington parson age is close to her churches and six miles from Oak Grove. It can get a little confusing when peoplecall tospeak to the Rev. Talbert, and die Talberts anticipate some hard to answer quesb'ons in the future. Even though they don't have plans for children in (he immediate future, David said it will create an interesting situation. But the situation is not as difficult for the Talberts as it may appear. "We have known ever since we met this is how life would be for us." Tammy said. "We have never known it any other way."- TheTalberts met while in seminary at Duke University and were married two years ago. They graduated in May and moved to Davie County in late June. David, who is from Concord, was woiidng in the family business, when he felt the caU to the ministry and returned to school. Tammy has knownsince 10thgrade this is how she wanted to spend her life. But prior to meeting Davidsheplanned to return to Virginia where shegrew up , in King William near Richmond. As it turns oat, the Talberts are one of more than 30 clergy couples in the Western North Carolina Conference, which covers Greensboro and every thing west of it One of the most special times in their relationship was being ordained together, David said. The Talberts agree there are a lot of benefits to being married to another minister. "We find ourselves sharing a good bit" David said. They only have to buy one set of- books arid can talk over sermon ideas with one another. But they never have Ihe'same ser mon even if they start with the same ideas.Theirs^lesaredifferent Tammy explained. ShesaidDavidisateacherwholays foundations^explainsbowandwhy to his congregation. Tammy is more of a story teller. "She captures the narrative nature of the Bible and brings that to life," David said. In additiontosermon ideas,Tammy said they also discuss how they should deal with situations or problems they or their church members encounter. "It's very helpful to have aspouse in thesameprofession-foradvice," David said. Together they participated in com munion services with home bound members from their churches and have gradually been meeting people in each other's churches. Tammy said she can occasionally attend an event at David's church if nothing is happening at one of hers, and he gets to do the same from time to time. . David said the Bishop and those who appoint ministers are sensitive to the situation of clergy couples. They work hard to place spouses close to gether, and theTalberts are happy with the situation. "We enjoy living in Davie County," he said. As more women feel called to the ministry, Tammy predicts clergy couples will also become more com mon. -SCOTTTCCESStTTOOBOTIIS ¥- V> 5 O «/> VI) £ O d Oavie County Public Library Wocksville, NC DAVIE COUNIT EOTfilfipRlSE RECORD, Sepi 28,1995- Tammy; 'We have knev»n since we met that this is how life would be for us. ul Q. flC >• ut -I *r> 3 t ill V- in 0 1 David and Tammy Talbert have offices at Oak Grove, but they live In Farmington. i/> I o d rJ Davie County Public Library Mocksville, NC 5(fi DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Sepi 28,1995 n -J >- U) J V/> ui 3 <2 u) 5 i David and Tammy Talbert share time together at Oak Grove United Methodist Church. - Photos by James Barringer G> O X I- w Davie County Public Library .....

Themembers of Wesley Chapelhave appreciated all thatPastor Gosnell has done forthem. and. even though theyare sad to see him leave astheir pastor, they wish himwell in his new assignment.Wesley Chapel United Methodist Church in the Pino community can traceits history to 1852.After worship, there wasa covered dish meal in thefellowship hall, which gavechurch members and visitors time to visit while theyenjoyed the bountiful lunch.. The following history ofWesley Chapel was in thechurch bulletin on Homecoming Sunday."Wesley Chapel Churchwas established because agroup of devout Christianpeople sought a place toworship God."In 1852.Harmon Hampton McMahan built a smalllog church building on hisplantation. The site of thisoriginal building is abotitthree miles west of the present church and the land nowbelongs to the J. D. Sheltonheirs. This crude log building with seats made of splitlogs was used until 1880."The church, a Methodist Episcopal South, wasplaced on the FarmingtonCircuit in 1876 and wasserved by Pastor W.C. Wilson.Tn June 1886. Mrs. JaneBrock McMahan deededtwo and a half acres of landfor a church and a cemeteryon which the present churchstand. The church buildingwas constructed during thelate 1880s and was not verysturdy. .At one point, it hadto be torn down and rebuilton the same foundation.This building was used until1949 when the congregationdecided they would have tobuild a new church or disband."Members of the churchwent to work cutting logs,taking them to a sawmilland helping with the carpentry work on the new church.The building was dedicatedJuly 29, 1951 with Reverend John Oakley as pastor.For many years the Fellowship HaU was in thebasement of the church. Itbecame too small and noteasily accessible for our seniors so the UMW went towork selling chicken piesand fruit pies and havingmonthly breakfasts to payfor a new Fellowship Hail.Through the hard work ofthe UMW, a gift from DukeEndowment, and manygenerous contributions, thebuilding became a reality.The fomial dedication of thenew building was held onJune 1.2003 with the note ofindebtedness being burnedon the day."Members had two evening meals recently. Thefirst was May 17 to welcome the new pastor. JamesRandolph (Randy) Purdue,who is coming from Lewis-ville. Union United Methodist nearLewisville will beon the charge with WesleyChapel. Rev.

I believe that theWoodwards were about theonly people left beside mewho attended that school,which closed in the spring of1941.1 am sure that GeorgeCana School sign.attended because I sal infront of him even thoughhe was in a grade ahead ofme. Louise may have goneto school at Holmon's CrossRoads, but I believe that shealso attended Cana. If thereis anyone else living wholended Cana School, pleaselet me know. I am sad allover again every time I losea Cana School Classmate.The last year it was inoperation. Cana School hadstudents in grade 1-6. Therewere 16 students and oneteacher. I don't know howone teacho*. who by the waywas my mother. Lola So-fley Etchison. was able tocover all of the subjects forstudents in si.x grades. Shemanaged to do that becausewhen students from Canawent to other schools theywere not behind in any wayand often were the top students in their new schools.Cana School was a primitive place. There was noelectricity, so there wasno artificial light, no bathrooms. no water, and nosteam heat. The lack ofelectric lights presenteda problem on dark, rainydays because it was reallyhard to see to read in thatwest classroom. The bigboys carried water from thebouse across the road sothat solved the lack of water problem. The studentsdrank the water from papercups that they fashioned outof notebook paper.There were two outhouses. one for girls, one forboys. I guess the outhousesworked pretty well becausestudents certainly did notwant to loiter there. In thewinter, it was so cold, onewas an.xious to get out ina hurry, and. in the summer. the outhouse smellcdso hard that one wanted tomake a hasty exit. So muchfor outhouses, but I addthat in-door bathrooms area blessing. Just ask anyonewho had to use an outhouseif you can find such a person. Most of the people whoare living today were bomafter electricity arrived inthe area in 1939 so they didnot get to experience outhouses. etc.The Cana School washeated with a stove that satin the middle of the room.A long stove pipe wentfrom the stove to a chimney which was in the comerof the room. Occasionally some of the boys wouldgel bored and shake thestove pipe which would fallscattering soot all over theroom. The teacher wouldhave to dismiss school soshe could clean up the messbecause the teacher was thejanitor as well. Of course,getting school dismissedwas the goal of the boys.There was one morechore which was assigned tothe teacher. The employeesof the County Board of Education brought big chunks ofwood and dumped them atthe school. The teacher hadto chop the wood into piecessmall enough to go into thestove in the classroom. TheDavie County School Boardwould not give the teacheran ax to chop the wood because they said she might letthe students dull it. So. theteacher had to provide herown ax.Have times changedduring the last 80y years orwhat?o.C )ij-f)Churches - Methodist - United - Wesley ChapelChurch breakfastabout more thanjust good foodBy Mike EarnhardtEnterprise RecordPINO - It's a nice drive down Cans Road or NC801 early on a Saturday morning.And when you get to Wesley Chapel United Methodist Church, it gets even nicer.Inside the fellowship hall - well before the suncomes up - is a group of dedicated volunteers.You can find Bob Ellis at tlte back of the kitchen,quietly frying sausage and country ham.Just around the comer, Chrisla Douglas is makingPlease See Breakfast - Page 4What:Community breakfast, eggs, sausage,country ham, gravies, apples, biscuitsWhen:Saturday, May 17Time:6:30-10 a.m.Where:Wesley Chape!
