Rev. P. B. Doyle. Dominican father
Of New Haven, was the preacher at the
Lenten service att st. Patrielxs church
Sunday evening. The cJngregation was
large in spite Of the unfayorabie weather.
Father Doyle, In his sermon. spoke
mainly OF the four properties or char

Doyle said that IL it cannot be distinguish
ed from human institutions that Christs

four properties or characteristics which
distinguish the church of Christ 1t must
be one, 1t must be holy. Il must b,
Catholic and it must: be apostolic.
The church Of Christ is one. Will

Christ spoke Of founding more than one
church? : He called it Ny Kingdom, My
church. lis the sheep fold to which
all sheep must come and be united IN
der one shepherd. The terms. house. a
city; sheep fold used in relation to ire
church. bear in themselves the marks Of
individuality. -
Christ said to Peter: Thou art Peter
and on this rock. ] will build Ny church.
Not churches but church, one church
Christ intended that His church be one.
The apostles regarded the unity Of the
church asa distinct characteristic of the
true church of Christ
In any organiza lion there must be
