At meeting of the pastors and
laymen, called by the Secretary of the
American Christian Commission, at
Lafayette, on the 9th of June last, an
earnest desire was expressed by many
persons that the pastors and bre thren
of the churches of Christ in Indiana
should come together at the call of the
Ministerial Association Of Indianapo-
lis, for the purpose of united prayer
to the great head of the church, and
for free interchange of opinions and
experience IN regard to the various
questions of practical Christian effort
the in Masters service.
At the annual convention of the
Young Mems Christian Association
of North America, held at Montreal,
Canada, in June las. it was recon-
mended that the State Young Mems
Christian Association conventions be
held in all the States prior to the
next annual convention Il
We do, therefore, invite the churches
of Indiana to send delegates of the
pastor or twoTor more laymen, and
the Young Mems Christian Associa-
tions each two or more delegates, to

ton and hope among the followers of
Christ in all the Churches, and they
are seeking 'earnestiyltol know what
are their duties to Others and how
they can perform these most faithfully
and acceptably. The muItitudes who
neglect the sanctuary and the various
means that may be employed by
Churches, individuals and -socie les to
reach them with the gospel. are ques-
tons of fhcient Importance to call
