Oral Roberts — Back in North Carolina

We recently added a blog entry concerning Oral Robert’s first job as a preacher: Oral Roberts In Fuquay Springs, North Carolina. The entry is just text since I could not find an image to go along with the posting.

However, the NC Collection continues to amaze me! As our photographic archivist was looking through some postcards today, I noticed the following image:

I can’t tell if the image was made in North Carolina (I suspect it was not), but the message on the back is:

“Greetings from the Greensboro N.C. meeting. The services are very good.” [April 15?, 1961?]

The postcard comes from the Durwood Barbour Postcard Collection, and will be added to the North Carolina Postcards website in the near future.
