realization of their privileges and
duties as Episcopalians; in other
words, reawakening and revitalizing
OF the church itself, in the hope that
an awakened and converted church
may go out to win the world for

hoped that the message brought by
these devoted crusaders may reach
the hearts of many who have no
church affiliations of any kind, and
bring them into the companionship
and fellowship Of "all faithful people"
and their great Leader Himself.
There will be two services with ser
mon at the church on Sunday, the
23rd, and on each of the five follow
ing weekdays there viii be opportun-
tiles for consultation and conference
with the crusaders, and evening
meetings at 7:30 o'clock. Epiphany
parish cordially invites all the peo-
pie of Flagstaff to hear these bear

On Friday, the last night of the
crusade, the speakers will deal with
the special interest of the oneoming
generation in the church and its place
in their lives. Delegations from both
high school and Teachers college
will probably be present, but the adj
dresses will be equally interesting to

close of the meal the vicar gave a
brief forecast of work which he hopes
the parish will undertake during the
coming year. Reports of work accom-

by many to be one of the four most

four thousand people of all sorts,
kinds and creeds.
Only two cities in Arizona are to
have the privilege of hearing Bishop
Moulton and his fellow crusader,
Archdeacon Noel Porter Of Californ-
la, who also has the reputation of be-
ing an exceedingly interesting and
helpful preacher. They will visit
Phoenix before coming here, and will
give us the same talks and opportun-
tiles for consultation which they give
there.
