APPEAL ON BEHALF OF THE
 GREEK CHURCH IN BRIDGEPORT
(Conn. Churchman)

(COnn. Churchman)
 Many of our clergy and people know of the interesting relations between our Church and the Greek church About a year ago, in St. Johns church, Bridgeport, ther was held a remark able service when there worshipped together clergy and congregations of both Russian and Greek churches, and also a, number of our clergy, including g the Bishop of the Diocese.
 The Greeks of Bridgeport are very anxious to secure at least a proper church in which to worship, and the oportunity has arisen to buy a lot with a church edifice upon it for about $S,000. Their numbers are small, but they, themselves, are raising about $3,ooO. For the rest of the sum need ed they are turning to their brehterr of other churches and have appealed to the Bishop of Connecticut
 Many among us are interested in the Greek church. Perhaps some may be glad of the oportpunity to contribute to this urgent need. Contribution may be sent to the Rev. D. Papadates S51 Main street, Bridgeport Conn
