Burckhardt, Pastor The Methodist churches of this city and Council Bluffs turned out in full array to render service at our Quar terly meeting Sunday. P. E. Hicks was at his best in the morning and ev- | ening. Rev. E. L. Hollis of the C. M. E. brought a great message at 3:00 P. M. Rev. W. C. Williams, who is con ducting a great revival, brought with him, besides his Stewardess and Dea coness, his Evangelist, Rev. John Ad ams, and Mr. Stephens, who is a won derful singer, and rendered much ser vice to the occasion. Sunday marked another history making epoch in the life of this church. The ministers that made up our program were Rev. W. C. Williams, St. John A. M. E.; Rev. Fred Divers, Bethel A. M. E.; Rev. Robert Ewing, Omaha Mission; Rev. T. S. Saunders, Grove M. E.; Rev. W. M. Majors, St. Marks, Council Bluffs; Rev. W. Gamble, of You St. Mission M. E., Rev. Messrs. P. M. Harris, Ray ford and Blake. Allen’s Chapel Choirs were at their best. The Seniors gave splendid service at morning and afternoon, and the juniors made everybody feel happy at the evening service. Malissa Carter, with her junior mis sionary workers, assisted by Deacon ess Severe, served a splendid dinner free to all who were hungry. Anna Alston helped to serve. Miss Anna Johnson, 2926 R. St., Mrs. G. Flannigan, 2311 N. 28th St., Dooley are all on the sick list. THE ST. PAUL PRESBYTERIAN i' CHURCH 26th and Seward Sts. Russel Taylor, Pastor The services Sunday were very helpful to all and everyone went away feeling much benefited and with a new determination to do more for The Kingdom of God. We have given too much concern to the glory t hat is to be ours beyond the grave and not enough concern to those things that make more of heav en here. When Jesus taught his dis ciples to pray, His first concern was with the coming of God’s kingdom,— “Thy Kingdom come.” The second thought was of the reign of God in this world, “Thy will be done.” The church is the one institution founded by Him for that one purpose. Have we seriously looked at it in that light? We are now to the third of our series for the month of March,— “Judgment Beginning at the House of God.” Let all members and friends strive to be present that we may be mutually helpful. Sunday evening the pastor has been invited to address the Ladies’ Mission ary Society of the Clifton Hill Pres byterian church. The St. Paul Quar tet will also render some special music for the occasion. EPISCOPAL CHURCHOF ST. PHIL IP THE DEACON A large congregation was present at the eleven o’clock service Sunday morning, and also at the five o’clock vesper service. Next Sunday morning at the eleven o’clock service the Sacrament of Holy Baptism will be administered. Ves pers will be said at five with sermon. Subject: “The Holy Communion.” A large class of adults and children who have been under instruction for the past two months will be con firmed Palm Sunday afternoon at five o’clock. htid-Dutfy Pharmacy \ 24ilk and Lake Mi. | | Free Ceinrery Webttar MCI f I ************" * * '************■** * * ♦ -fftt nnm * MINISTERIAL ALLIANCE The attendance at this meeting was not up to the normal, yet the interest was very great. The Rev. W. P. Botts gave a run ning exposition of the first three chap ters of the Book of Revelation which created a very lively and interesting discussion. It was agreed that the condition of the seven churches of Asia was typical of the church in all ages until the end. That the warnings, 1 admonitions, threafenings of the Spirit to these churches are for our profit to day if we will only heed them. The same spirit that hated the sins of the Nicolaitans in the churches of Asia Minor, hates the same sins as they ex ist today. The discussion next Tuesday will be on “The Seven Seals,” Rev. 4-8, and will be opened by the Rev. W. C. Wil liams. RESUMES THE UNDERTAKING BUSINESS H. A. Chiles who some years ago was in the undertaking business here with Allen Jones, but subsequently left Omaha, has returned and decided to j resume his profession.
