Church Women Plan
May Fellowship Day
CONTINUED from page onel

Plans were further discussed
concerning the United Church Wo-
men of Delaware cooperating with
the State Council of Churches in
the special Migrant Fund drive to
raise $4,000. 1t is the hope of
these two Christian groups to en-
large the migrant assistance pro-
gram throughout the state. 1t is
especially significant that half of
this amount is to be used for a
pilot summer school program for
Migrant children. The State Board
of Education, which will admins
ter this program, has been ready
for migrant summer school pro-
gram for several years but has
had no funds. The other $4,000 is
to be allocated for much needed
chaplain work. 1t is hoped that
summer school will be provided
for in the future by legislative ap-
preparation, and the funds for the
migrant ministry will be an es-
tabIished item in the Home Mis-
sion budgets of our churches in
Delaware. This labor is a neces-
sity to the farmers in Delaware
and the United Church Women
feel their welfare and happiness
is the responsibility of the people
of this state. Delaware has over
five thousand of these workers
come here each year.

tribution is asked TO make all
checks payable to the Council of
Church Women of Delaware and
mail to Mrs. Joseph l.. Sharratt,
