CITY CHURCHES IN
Big SIMULTANEOUS
EVhNCELISTIC DRIVE
Campaign Next January For
Period Of Three Weeks.

A simultaneous evangelistic cam
paign in the interest of Christianity
in this community will be made by
the Protestant churches OF the city
next January over a period OF three
weeks, It was learned today, follow
ing adoption of program to that
effect by the ministerial association
of the city after a long discussion
and consideration of plans for slim
ulating interest in religious matters.
The campaign will follow a period
of two weeks OF cottage prayer meet
ings, such as those followed in a
previous campaign, which will be
held all over the city. These Will
work directly into the formal church
services which will be held nightly
for the three-week period. The plans
provide that each denomination shall
arrange a corps of cvangelistic
speakers as strong spiritually as 1t
is possible to function during the
campaign, and that in addition each
denomination shall secure for the
period a special outof-town speaker
or speakers who will make the adj
dresses. The effort is 10 be made at
the same time throughout the city
and the movement is backed by the
ministerial association.
Adoption OF the program was the
result of the elimination of two 9th
er plans-one to have all the church
es unite in a single union drive with
tabernacle meetings and one big
speaker. and another plan was to
have regional meetings during which
each section of the city would be
touched, the churches all uniting.
The campaign will start early in
January. as soon after the Christ
mas holidays as practicable.
