The San Francisco call., 1906-07-02
Large Attendances in All
the City's Houses
of Worship.
High Hope Is Dominant
Note in Sermons
Preached.

d The rare midsummer weather took
people from their homes yesterday and
thousands attended worship both al
morning and evening services. Almost
every church and temporary worship
place was crowded to its utmost capa-
city. Words full of hope for San Fran
cisco and its stricken people were
spoken from the pulpits. The strength
Of faith exhibited in marked degree
during the calamitous days gave les
sons for many sermons.
With a Thanksgiving service and the
celebration of lie holy communion the
new temporary quarters Of the Episco-
pal Church of st. John the Evangelist
were formally opened yesterday morn
ing. The new house OF worship is a
frame building on the site OF the for
mer church, and was built by contri-
buttons from Eastern States. Rev. L.
c. Sanford, the pastor of the church,
conducted the services. He confined his
remarks TO matters connected with the
occasion and to the best methods of
work for the future that the members
of the parish should adopt.
The original ST. Johns Church was
entirely ruined by the fire. 1t was con-
structed at cost of $4,000, but was
which has yet been paid. 1t is net
probable that the new permanent build
ing will be on the old site.
With appropriate ceremonies. and
with Archbishop Montgomery IN charge
of the services. a class of more than
100 boys and girls of the parish of st.
Anthony was confirmed yesterday
morning at the church, corner Army
and Folsom streets.
Following is a list of the forty-five
boys and sixty-five girls who were con-
firmed:
