AMONG The CHURCHES
A GLORIOUS REVIVAL.

The revival being conducted by Dr..
j.. w. Nurse and st. Stephens Bap-
fist church in the mammouth tent at
18th and Michigan Avenue, has been
a wonderful success, thousands at
tending nightly and many souls con-
verted. An inspiring chorus of one
hundred voices with an orchestra of
ten pieces under the direction of
Madame Hammett Bartell renders
splendid music And the sermons by
DR.. Chas. T. Walker during the past
ten days have been the most wonder
full of his distinguished career.
DR.. R. B. Porter a powerful gospel
preacher of Arkansas is preaching
nightly this week and the interest re-
mains undated. This is undoubtedly
the greatest revival Kansas City has
ever experienced.

CHRISTIAN CHURCH,

The services were the greatest fin
ancially in the history of the Church;
also the greatest in the way of fellow
ship. Five Christian congregations
were represented in the services dur
ing the day. Although several mem
bers of the Church were absent and
some absolutely slackers, those who
we're in the trenches never made a
harder or better fight to Go over the

tor and DR.. T. c. Unthank and Secre.
tary Harris, Centenniel M. E. Church
led by Rev. Overton; First Christian
Church, Kansas City, Kansas, led by
their pastor and Brothers Frank Bush
and Joe Willis; the Third Christian
church led by their pastor and Broth
ers Ellis and Bouguer came in an re-
enforcement and a terrible battle took
place in the AFTERNOON. Brother VIM.
H. Thomas, pastor of Allen Chapel
was in command of the Allied forces
and gave the charge in a very force
full, practical way that carried cour-
age and determination to many hearts.
As a Methodist General, he said some
truly wonderful things that touched
and moved the red blood in Christian
soldiers and the battle was truly the
Lords. 1t was said the amount of the
collection went beyond all expecta-
ton except the pastors. At the even
ing service Brother VIM. H. Vanderzee
of Topeka, brought us a rich gospel
message. When the collections were
all in there was $1,267.21 in hand.
During the week the Officers and pas
tor are gathering up the fragments
to raise the balance needed ~($150.00)
to pay the last note and all street paw
ing and special taxes against the
Church property. The public is cor
daily invited to be present next Sun
day and see the white flag go up. On
the second Sunday in July the mort
gage on the property will be burned
and the property dedicated by the
congregation.
