VIII the Protestant churches of this
country cooperate in bringing the
message and benefits of Christianity
to every man, woman and child in
the county?
This question is being asked not
only here, but in every one of the
5000 counties of America; and its
echo is being heard around the world.
Since the world war, the necessity
for religion has been felt as never
before in the hearts of men. And one
of the outstanding lessons of the war
has been that by unified action among
allies in the same cause victory can
be achieved. The Protestant churches
of America have determined to work
together in bringing victory to the
cause of Christianity, not by giving
UP their own identity or church or
ganization, but by cooperating Shout
der to shoulder in great community
and world uplift movement.
The movement has nothing to do
with organic church union or doctrinal
matters and does not propose to set
up any super-commissiOn with exec
utive powers, 1t simply seeks to show
all the Christian bodies how they
can work together for one cause with
out any of them yielding any funda-
mental of belief, practice or independ-
ence.
The first steps in this direction
came from the South. A year ago,
the Foreign Missionary Board of the
Presbyterian Church, South, called
upon their fellow workers in the mis-
sion field from Baptists, Methodists,
Episcopalians, and all other Protest
ant creeds, to meet together and de-
eide upon some basis whereby the
work of each might be carried on to
better advantage by cooperation.
The result of this was the forma-
ton of the Interchurch World Move
ment, made up of practically all the
organizations within the evangelical
churches of America. This movement
is intended to be clearing house of
information in regard to home and
foreign missions, community condi-
lions and needs, which shall furnish
to the various denominations the nee
essary facts upon which the denomi-
nations can act. This informa-
ion will relate to social NOR
u and Industrial problems, and it will
enable the churches to act intelligent
" in planning their own work and in
meeting the needs of the community
In order for the necessary facts to
he secured, a survey Of local condi-
tons is to be made in this county,
IN every county in America, and
throughout every country in the
world.
