While denominations are essential
and church pride commendable. the
high teaching of universal Christianity
must prevail If the rural church is to
fulfill Its mission to agriculture.
We frequently have three or four
churches In a community which is not
able to adequately support one. Small
congregations attend services once
month and all fail to perform the re.
ligious functions of the community.
The division of religious forces and
the breaking into fragments of moral
efforts is ofttimes little less than
calamity and defeats the very purpose
they seek to promote.

THE CHURCH AS

The social duty Of the rural church.
Is as much a part of its obligations
as it's spiritual side. In expressing Its
social interest, the modern rural
church does not hesitate to claim that
1t Is expressing a true religious In
stinct and the old-time idea that the
social instincts should be starved
while the spiritual nature was over
fed with solid theological food. IL fast

ton OF the functions OF true religion
We take our place In the succession
OF those who have sought to make the
world L fl habitation for the children
Of man when we seek to study and
understand the social duty OF the
rural church The true christian re
lgion is essentially socialists tenets
Of faith being love and brotherhood
and fellowship While following after
righteousness, the church must chal
leuge and seek to reform that social
order IN which moral life is ex.
pressed. While cherishing ideals OF
service. the rural church which +.
tans the fullest measure of success
IS that which enriches as many lives
az Il can touch, and In no way can
the church come In as close contact
With IFS members as through the
avenue Of social functions
The country town aud the rural
community need social center. The
church need offer no apology for its
ambition to fiji this need In the com
munity ii an understanding of its
mission brings this purpose into clear
consciousness The structure OF a
rural community il exceedingly com
