casion will also mark the entrance of the
congregation on the second year of its
existence.
The coming of DR.. Steck has been
awaited with much interest by the large
number of Lutherans here. as his Access
sion to the ministerial force of the
National Capital Is expected to result in
a considerable strengthening of the hold
that denomination has on the people of
the city. DR.. Steck, who is a man of
strong personality and high intellectual
attachments, is a native of Pennsylvania

OF the old historic Lutheran
Church at Frederick. Md. from which.
after an unusually successful pastorate
Of six years and three months he comes
to the Church Of the Epiphany.
With the character of the work required
in his new field Dr. Steck is quite
familiar, as he was the first pastor of
the first three churches he served. Since

Maryland Synod, to which body most of
the Lutheran Churches OF the District
and Maryland belong, DR.. Steck has been
frequently honored. He is now serving
