AN UNUSUAL SERVICE AT
FIRST NJ. P. CHURCH

Last Sunday night an unusual SER
vice was held at First M. P church.
From the very beginning of the
conferences represented in Delaware
IL has been the custom to select ana
send a delegate TO the annual confer
ence and simply accept what was
done without the congregation know
ing. oftentimes, what was done ana
why certain things were done, thus
causing considerable criticism OF the
conference at times.
At the recent meeting of the Mary
land Conference of the Methodist
Protestant Church plan was
adopted which provides that the dele
gate shall make a report to the con-
gregation on his return, also that the
members elected to the official board
at the annual membership meeting
shall be duly installed in the posi-
tions to which they are elected.
Last Sunday evening the report of
the delegate, VIM. H. Richardson,
was heard and then the roll call OF
the newly elected officers was made.
AS their names were called they
stood before the alter of the church
while the pastor called attention OF
the congregation that they had elect
ed these persons to the various re-
sponsible positions and that it be-
came moral obligation upon them,
the congregation, to- assist and CO.
operate with their representatives IN
every way for the betterment of the
church. Then turning to the mem
bors of the official board he remind
cd them of the duties of their various
offices and that they were response
BILE to God and the church for the
faithful performance of these duties
Then with bowed heads pastor ano
congregation prayed for Divine bless,
ing and guidance on both official
hoard and congregation, thus conse-
Grating them to the work to which
they are elected. 1t was a deeply
impressive service and appreciated
by all in attendance.
