The Rev DR.. William G. Davenport
and the congregation of the Emmanuel
Episcopal Church, Washington and Fill
more streets, have been looking forward
with much anticipation to this, Palm
Sunday. when the Right Rev. Henry Y.
Satterlee. Bishop of Washington, will
consecrate the church. Although the
building has been completed for num-
Der of years, the church was never con-
secrated for reasons deemed sufficient
by the rector and vestry of the parish
Those reasons no longer exist, having
been happily removed by the efforts of
the senior warden
The rector is gratifed that the conse-
Grafton should take place at this par
tfcular time, since the Sunday school
has just been moved from the church
to the new parish hall, SO that in fu-
ture the church building need. not be
used as a school room even for Sunday
school, but may be occupied solely for
purposes of public worship.
The services will be at IL o'clock Sun
day morning, and at the same time
the bishop will confirm the members of
the large confirmation class formed by
the rector in the beginning of Lent.
