Two Churches Due
To Merqe in 1857

WINSTON SALEM, N. c.,
April 20 (R.-The merger of
the Evangelical and Reformed
Church and the Congregational
Christian Church is expected to
be completed in 1857.
DR.. Sheldon E. Mackey, ad-
ministrative assistant to the
president Of the Evangelical and
Reformed Church in Philadel-
phia. made the announcement
at the opening today of the
Southern Synod's three-day
meeting here.
DR.. Mackey said the general
council of his church and the
Executive Committee Of the
Congregational Christian Church
"have been working in close
cooperation to lay plans for the
consummation of the union of
the two denominations"
Both communions," he said.
"have acted favorably on this
union which will result in a new
denomination whose name will
be the United Church of Christ
with a total membership of 2
million"
