Elmore County Republican. [volume] (Mountain Home, Idaho) 1910-1915, 1914-01-10

D., Bishop of Idaho, appointed Mr.
A. L. Wood to take charge of the
work and from that date the Church
has been gradually growing.
1t might be interesting to our
readers to know what has been &C
coAplish d by this band of workers
during the past six months in the
Episcopal Church of Mountain Home.
Services are now held regularly each
Sunday morning at eleven and in the
evening at seven-thirty. during the
winter months and at eight o'clock
in the evening during the summer.
Tne Bishop appointed a Board OF five
trustees who act in conjunction with
the minister in all business matters
concerning the welfare of the Church.
The Ladies' Guild has been re-organ-
lied with a membership of about
twenty-five and under the presiden-
cy of Mrs. F. G. Ticknor, is doing
valuable work for the Church. For
young ladies over sixteen years OF
age, a Young Ladies Club has been
organized with Miss Jane Tucker as
president and Miss Sue Evans as
vice pr sident. The present member
ship is 10 and the work they are do
ing is too we'll known to refer to
here. A Junior Girls Club, with a
membership of "a with Mrs. Goodall
and Mrs. Wood as Supervisors, is
making great progress among the
younger members of our Sunday

Episcopal Church.

The Episcopal Church was the first
church to be established in Mountain
Home. Almost as soon as settlers
began to locate here services We're
held by Missionaries of the Church,
in the homes of the people and in
very short time sufficient money
was raised to erect a small frame
building in which to hold services.
Among the first ministers to take up
the work were the Reverends Buzz
zell Mcpherson, DR.. White and Stod-
dart.
The Church continued to prosper
and very earnest and progressive
membership was the result. About
nineteen years ago the little frame
building was burned to the ground,
the only thing saved being the bell
which now hangs in the tower Of the
present building.
This calamity fell like death blow
to the little band of workers but after
Elmore County Republican. [volume] (Mountain Home, Idaho) 1910-1915, 1914-01-10

addition to this some $500 was dona-
ed by the Bishop of the Diocese, and
the result was that the present build
ing was soon complete and ready for
services again. The pews for the
new church were the donation of
Mr.. Cowan and Mr.. Andy Griffen
who purchased the lumber and made
the seats which are now used in
the church
By the energy and devotion of
Mrs. Purtill, large Sunday School
was organized and the work of the
Church began again, in better build
ing and under more favorable circum-
stances than ever before. Some
times with a minister and some
times without, the Church continued
to hold its own and accomplished
much good in the community.
About six years 40 the Reverend
DR.. Mclean was appointed to take
charge and after five years of hard
work, resigned and from that time

school. A boys Club with 20 active
members on the roll is operating
among the boys of the community.
All of these organizations meet
weekly. A Sunday school was formed
on the 18th of August and the first
Sunday of this year showed total
membership of 65, 7 having been
struck off the register for non-at-
tendance or removal from the dis
trict, making in all total of 70 en-
rolled since the opening of the Sun
day school. The first Sunday in the
year showed a total attendance in
the Sunday school for that day of
81, only 3 scholars being absent.
The church choir is being built UP
under the able direction of-Mrs. H.
A. Beach and in addition to the Or
gan small orchestra adds to the
musical portion of the services.
The outlook for a prosperous new
year Is very bright and the church
is indeed grateful to many kind
friends and the business men of
Mountain Home who have come for.
ward so generously at all times to
aid her effort on behalf of the
Kingdom of God.
