Rev. Leighton Coleman, Bishop Of
Delaware, discussed the relation OF
Parochial to Diocesan claims.
After thanking the members of the
Church Climb for their renewed hospital
ity to himself and the other guests of
the evening the bishop spoke of his par
ticular pleasure in the presence OF bis
old friend, the Bishop Of Pittsburg.
After giving few encouraging facts as
to the recent progress OF the Church in
Delaware, Bishop Coleman proceeded to
discuss the theme assigned him.
He emphasized the fact that upon al
churchmen there are caims-caims 10 r
their love and service, for their aims an q
their labors. He deplored the too gen.
eral disallowance OF their claims on the
part OF very many, and especially of
such as are diocesan. The diocese is the
tsrue unit OF church organization.
parishes are only factions thereof. In
other words chulchmen ought to think
OF themselves first as members of the
diocese, and then as members of its sew
eral parishes.
Let man be diligent and enthusiastic
in attending to the many and urgent
and bounden claims Of his parish, but
let him remember that in attending to
them he has only discharged his duty in
part. The diocese has claims which
cannot be ignored without injury, not
only to the diocese at large, but also to
every portion-cvcn the most insignif-
icant part of it.
Bishop Coleman pleaded, therefore,
for diocesan men. "With Delaware full
of such churchmen," said the bishop,
''all church life would be more vigorous
and stronger and more benefcent."
He himself was a docesan-the bishop
OF the diocese, and yet deeply interested
in every part of it. In the success or
failure of each parish, lie saw the success
or failure of the diocese to certain cx-
tent, and, therefore, as the pastor OF pas
tors he was anxious that all the people
should be really and personally con
cerned in the welfare OF the whole.
Following the bishop, Major Moses
Neale addressed the club on "The
Church at Sea and Ashore" The sub.
ject was good one and Major Neale
commanded the attention of ali present.
