A. M. E. ZION SOCIETY
Planning to Raise Funds for Erection
of Church.

Plans will be formulated within
short time to raise the necessary funds
for the erection OF a place of worship
for the A. NJ. E. Zion congregation of
Willinantic Rev. S. E. Robinson, the
new pastor of the mission, stated on
Friday that within a short time the
other ministers of the city and himself
would hold meeting. The meeting
was to have been called about a month
ago when Rev. J. FL. Battle was trans
ferred.
Several available sites in the city
have been looked over by a committee
from the local mission. The one on
Schoolhouse lane particularly appeals
to the committee and as there is a
possibility that the mission may pur-
chase St. Paufs Episcopal church
when its new edifee is built the COM
ing winter. the expense of moving the
church to this particular site would
not be excessive. Rev. Mr.. Robinson
said that the mission found it rather
hard to swell its fund. but is not one
whit discouraged, and is confident
that when an appeal is made to the
people of the city and vicinity that a
hearty response will be the result. At
the time Bishop Walters was here on
May 30 he guaranteed that in the event
of the local mission raising $500 the
church extension fund of the New En-
gland A. NJ. E. Zion conference would
contribute a similar amount and the
balance, $780, would be raised by
voluntary contributions from the peo-
pie of the city and vicinity, as it is
estimated that $1,000 will be required
to carry the project through.
