PREPARES FOR DRIVE
LOCAL PARISH Is ORGANIZED
FOR NATIONWIDE CAM

campaign committee.
Chairmen of Mr.. Hits sub-com-
mittees are: Lists, Vestry; pub

The nationwide campaign is a
great spiritual movement in the

after the lines of other preceding re-
ligious efforts, such as the Metho-
dist centenary.
! Its aims are MANIFOLD.
First of all, it plans to enlist as
intercessors, one-fourth of the mem
bers pledged to pray daily for the
success of the campaign. Daily
prayer groups and an organized eff
fort for signers of prayer pledge
are among the means used.
Then it is contemplated that the
entire work of the church shall be
revivified and spiritualized. 1t ia
planned to enlarge present work and
to extend the religious. educational,
hospital and social service activities
of the church all over the nation, as
we'll as in South America and the
Orient.
! Finally it is planned to canvass
every member of the church January
% towards a national quota Of $42.-
100000, to which will be added espe-
cial needs in Washington. Funds
will be raised on the basis of weekly
pledges, and at the same time the
budget of each parish for the ensu-
! ing three years will be pledged, it is
contemplated.
