Community Building Club ELECTED MAY 18 418 Floyd House $50.00 PAID This Week $50- $50 Christian Endeavor In Action Christian Endeavor continues to serve effectively as the youth train ing agency of many of the largest churches of the nation. Lately some of the leaders of the world-wide movement shared with one another such news items as these about famous Protestant churches which expect much and receive much of their Christian Endeavor societies. The Euclid Avenue Baptist church! of Cleveland, Ohio, carries the Chris tian Endeavor program through to the adult group. The Adult Society of Christian Endeavor has been sponsoring five Go-to-Church Sun days. It distributed an attractive leaflet as one medium to carry the message of welcome. This leaflet list ed five appropriate services in the Euclid Avenue church each Sunday, including the early-evening meeting of the Adult Christian Endeavorers. "If you do not attend thi3 church," the leaflet urged, "we trust that you will participate in and strengthen the work of some other church." The Lake Avenue Congregational church of Pasadena. California, is said to have the largest evening church attendance In a city noted for strong religious institutions. Its leaders credit the seven Christian Endeavor " societies of Lake Avenue church for a large portion of the evening attendance. They have sur veyed the congregation on occasion to arrive at this conclusion. In Washington, D. C, the Central Presbyterian church has a particu larly active and thriving young peo ple's society. These Christian En deavorers hold one service each month at the hospital, or a mission chapel, or a home for the aged visiting these in rotation month by month. They have a well-balanced recreational program and publish a weekly periodical. These are specimens of the work carried" on by Christian" Endeavor forces in large churches. In pro portion the society has been quite as useful and successful in a large number of small communities and wayside chapels.
