MTER-CHURcH WORLD MOVE
MNT.
Suite lo1I, 81 W. Randolph Street,
Chicago.

One of the paradOxes of present day
life is that while the farm produces
more ministers for the Christian
Church than any other field of activity,
thu problem Of meeting the spiritual
needs of the rural districts is one of
the most difficult the churches have to
contend with. The program of the
Inter4Chureh World Movement which
eo-operates activities of the Protestant
Churches calls for adjustment of this
condition. The problem will be dis
cussed by survey department rePresen-
tatIves and speakers on ministerial re-
lief at the Illinois Pastors Conference
IL connection with the Inter-Church
World Movement, which will be held
at Orchestra Hall, Chicago, March s,
9 and 10. Practically all Protestant
ministers of IIlionis will attend this
conference.
That the situation is serious ma
teriaIly as well as spiritually, is illus
trated by the effort which the Inter
Church World Movement is making to
bnng about a vigorous cooperative
effort on the part of the churches to
cope with the rural problem The sur
yey which the American Education De-
partment of the Inter Church World
Movement is making of the situation
has shown that the rural church is not
hOurishing. For one reason, the farmer
has advanced intellectually, and is not
satisfied with the kind of service
formerly held in his behalf. He and
the family get into the automobile and
60 to the nearest big town for church,
when they go to church at all. An
other reason Is that the churches have
not attempted to meet the needs of the
isolated districts. The whole problem
Is intemixed with those kindred prob
lens Of falling OF of interest in farm
life and the abandoned farm, which are
exciting the alarm o the economists.
Some idea of the problems which
confront the church is to be had from
the fact that the Ohio Rural Life So
siety found that of l,515 churches in
81 counties, more than twO-thirds were
arrested or dying. Again, in Ohio, the
only state completely surveyed as yet,
the open country churches were found
TO be - per cent worse of than town
churches and more than twice as bad
as the village church in arrested de-
veIopment. a survey of the rural dis
triets of Illinois, and the entire state |
is now being made by the Inter-Chureh
World Movement, to determine eondi- |
tions in this state.
