CHURCH EXTENSION,

AN APPEAL for a NEW CHURCH for the MILD
ROAD DISTRICT, EVERTON, near LIVERPOOL.
This District is bounded by the Everson-road, the Breck-roauP,
Rocky-lane, Whitefield-lane, Boundary-lane, and West DerbY-
road.

It already contains more than 800 houses, inhabited by
population of more than 4000 persons. By far the largesL
proportion of the inhabitants belong to the labouring classes
of the community.
New houses are rapidly springing up in every direction, and
as there is a very considerable extent of ground already pa prO-
priated to building purposes, the population will, in all proba-
bility, be very largely increa,ed in the course of a few years..
There is, in the above district, no place of public worshiP,
belonging to any Christian communion whatever,
single exception of the Everton National School Room, whiC",
is in connexion with St. George's Church, Everton, and is
supported almost exclusively by the voluntary contributions
of the congregation of that church. The School Room ban'

the Bishop of the Diocese, as a place of worship, and divine
service is celebrated there twice-on every Sunday, and once
also during the week. These services are attended by crowded
congregations; but the bttilding is incapable of affording
accommodation for more than 200 persons, in addition to the
children of the school. with lhf.

It is surely.needless, after the simple statement of the above
facts, to-point out the urgent necessity which exists for the,
immediate erection of a church, to meet the spiritual wants of
a large and constantly increasing population. If the progress
of Infidelity is to be checked—if the pure doctrines of 11.11
Scripture are to be maintained in opposition to the corruption!,
of the Romish Church—if the careless and irreligious are to be
awakened—and if society is to be leavened by the sanctifying
principles of the Gosp of Jesus Christ—these most important
objects can only be effectually attained by regularly and eye"
tematically imparting to the people t `le knowledge of the saving
truths of our most holy faith, both t the public services of the
congregation, and also in frequent pi 'vide visits of the Pastor
and his assistants from house to how(.

at heart the spiritual welfare of their fello•A men, and the 100:
gress of the Gospel of truth, to assist us by such contributions
as they may be able and willing to give, in procuring, as soon
as possible, the erection of a church in the above district.
A piece of land for the site of the proposed church, "
convenient and central position, near the east end of Audio'''
street, has been kindly offered by J. A. CASE and J. G. Monill.
el
Esquires, and sex eral other friends have already proneiDbe
resolved,thos those
who u
havender
subscriptions. It is also hoped that some assistance Mg
obtained from one or more Church Building Societies.
The new Church is intended to accommodate 1,200 persOne•
Half of the seats will be either entirely free, or let at veil

sitting.
. .

The estimated cost of such a building is £4,000. Another
1,000 will be required to furnish an Endowment Fund,
without which the Church cannot be consecrated.
The following Clergymen and Gentlemen have consented to
act as Trustees for the appointment of a Minister:—
The Rev. WILLIAM WITHERS EWBANK, M.A., Incumbent
of St. George's Church, Everton.
The Rev. JOHN HERBERT JONES, Incumbent of St. Augug-
tine's Church, Everton.
ADAM HonasoNy Esq., Breckfield Lodge, Everton.
JAMES CURRIE DUNCAN, Esq., Springfield, Everton.
NETLAM TORY, Esq., Nethertield- road, Everton.
The Rev. JOHN MACNAUGHT, B.A. of Wadham College!
Oxford, who, as one of the Curates of St. George's Cbur,c...7
Everton, has been labouring in the above district for the al,
two years, is to be the first Minister of the proposed
Church.

We earnestly hope that we may be cordially aided in the ac:.
complishment of our object by the united exertions of all 0
neighbours, whether rich or poor. The work before us, as _
well know who have been engaged in church building, is 02.4
which evidently requires a strong and persevering effort; Fr,f
if they who, in any degree, value the inestimable blessing
pure religion, will earnestly support us according to the vatic!,
means wherewith God has blessed them, we doubt not the
shall speedily have the happiness of seeing a House of Pra):4,
and Christian teaching arise in the midst of a population White
so ranch requires it, to the glory of God our Saviour and 11`
eternal advantage of our fellow-men.
