congregational District Meeting

The Eau Claire District Association
of Congregational Churches convened
at Bloomer May to s. The Congre-
gational Church OF Ladysmith was
represented by Pastor and two dele
gates, Mrs. Il. H. Rote and Miss
Mabel Sinclair. There was a fair
representation of Churches and the
meeting was exceptionally inspiring
aud profitable. Topics of vital in
terest to the religious life of the
Churches were discussed: The Past
crate, Home Missions, Evangelism,
Sunday School, Organizations for
Young People, Mems Clubs. Wemen's s
Clubs. These are pressing problems
and the interest that the pastors
took in discussion showed plainly
that they were much concerned for
their solution.
Probably the most important
theme discussed was what is COM
monty known among Congrega-
tionalists as The Tri-Church Union.
Strenuous efforts are being put forth
to unite three denominations-the
United Brethren, Methodist Protest
ant and COngregatiOnal-in one
organic body. This is a great move
ment and means much for the pro-
gress of the Kingdom OF God. There
is abundant hope that this compact
will be consummated. The conven-
tion voted in favor of the union.
On Tuesday night the convention
sermon was preached by Rev.
Granville Ross Piker of Eau Claire.
The sermon was q mastery produc-
tion on The Power of Personality,
and left profound impression.
The social hour Wednesday even
ing was one of the pleasantest parts
of the meeting. The ladies of the
Bloomer Church served a fine supper
in the lecture room. This gave the
delegates an opportunity for mutual
acquaintance and fellowship.
The Woman's Missionary Associa-
ton held their meeting on Tuesday
afternoon. Addresses were made by
Miss Walker of Milton and Mrs. T. G.
Grassey of Menominee.
The people of Bloomer entertained
the delegates right royalty and gave
a hearty Come again.
The Association will meet at Pres
colt next year. ***
