Rev Enoch NJ. Thompson, vicar OF
the Church of the Nativity, 18th and
A streets southeast. has inaugurated
a ten-week campaign for the benefit
of the church.
He has set forth certain spirituaI

They are as follows:
To make each member more Christ
like.
To bring other souls to Christ by
prayer and effort.
To bring the young and neglected
to holy baptism.
To bring lapsed communicates back
to the altar.
To encourage regular church at
tendance on the Lords day, especially
at the holy communion.
To encourage Christian living in the
home, by the family and by private
worship, and by acts of courtesy and
love.
To build up the Sunday schools. the
choir and other organizations.
To help the clergy by earnest
prayer and cooperation.
To witness for Christ in the world
by doing the hard right and avoiding
the easy wrong.
The financial aims are: To have
every IneIHDeT reg uldT oupSCElocI
to pay off the Nativity debt by Easter;
to increase the current expense and
mission fund: to increase the resur-
rection building fund.
Though a poor congregation. the
people and their friends have re-
sponded well and have reduced the
debt to 5000. This must be raised or
pledged before April 27-Sunday after
Easter-to make this part Of the pro-
gram a thorough success
The bishop confirmed one OF his
largest classes Sunday last, when the
Nativity congregation turned out in
greater force than ever before to
greet him. He seemed very pleased
to hear of the progress being made in
getting the debt paid of and in other
| things, besides.
