Harry and Avis Harrison were loyal Pittman Park members. You know the kind, always there, caring and sharing in all the church’s endeavors. Mr. Harry had a really deep voice, and there was no denying who it was when you heard that low bass tone!

In the 1980s we often had Sunday night services outdoors in the garden, when weather and insects permitted. At that time the nursery and children’s rooms were not enclosed by the current hall, so sound could easily carry from area to the other.

At one such evening service, as prayer requests were being spoken, Mr. Harry vocalized a particular need to the attention of those in attendance. Inside one of the nearby children’s rooms, a child said “Quiet – everyone quiet!” When the teacher, Beverly Campbell, asked what was wrong, the little boy said reverently, “I think I heard God talking out there!”
