CHURCH CO-OPERATION FOR
COMMUNITY AND WORLD UPLIFT
Will the Protestant churches of this
country co-operate in bringing the
message and benefits of Christianity
to every man, woman and child in
the county?
This question is being asked not
only here, but in every one of the
3,000 counties of America; and its
echo is being heard around the world.
Since the world war, the necessity
for religion has been felt as never
before in the hearts of men. And one
of the outstanding lessons of the war
has been that by unified action among
allies in the same cause victory can
be achieved. The Protestant churches
of America have determined to work
together in bringing victory to the
cause of Christianity, not by giving
up their own identity or church or
ganization, but by co-operating shoul
der to shoulder in a great community
and world uplift movement.
The movement has nothing to do
with organic churcl* union or doctrinal
matters and does not propose to set
up any super-commission with exec
utive powers. It simply seeks to show
all the Christian bodies how they
can work together for one cause with
out any of them yielding any funda
mental of belief, practice or independ
ence.
The first steps in this direction
came from the South. A year ago,
the Foreign Miesionary Board of the
Presbyterian Church, South, called
upon their fellow workers in the mis
sion field from Baptists, Methodists,
Episcopalians, anil all other Protest
ant creeds, to meet together and de
cide upon some basis whereby the
work of each might be carried on to
better advantage by co-operation.
The result of this was the forma
tion of the Interehurch World Move
ment. made up of practically all the
organizations within the evangelical
churches of America. This movement
is intended to be a clearing house of
information in regard to home and
foreign missions, community condi
tions anil needs, which shall furnish
to the various denominations the nec
essary facts upon which the denomi
nations can act. This informa
tion will relate to social, mor
al and industrial problems, and it will
enable the churches to act intelligent
ly in planning their own work and in
meeting the needs of the community.
In order for the necessary facts to
he secured, a survey of local condi
tions is to he made in this county,
in every county in America, and
throughout every country in the
world.

THE WINDER NEWS, WINDER, GA.THURSDAY, AUGUST 21, 1919.
Representatives of all the denomi
nations in each county are forming
county councils to undertake local
studies and to insure that they are
complete and accurate Surveyors un
der their supervision will collect the
necessary information. They are to re
port upon the condition of every
church in the county, its member
ship, its financial condition, whether
it is gaining or losing members, wheth
er its families are receiving pastoral
care. They are to report upon church
groupings, upon conflicting efforts,
upon neglected * territory or families,
upon community centers, social build
ings, lodges and other social organi
zations.
The county council will then study
this data and use its own judgment
about arranging for interdenomination
al local efforts to handle purely local
conditions. It will then certify the
information to the state council. This
body is also composed of representa
tives —at least one clergyman and one
layman—from all the denominations.
The state council assembles the re
ports of the county council, studies
them, works out its own advisory pro
gram and sends a complete report to
divisional headquarters.
In all the work that is done, there
will be absolutely no interference with
church organization. Each denom
ination will do its own work in its
own way. All will unite, however, in
securing the data necessary to fulfill
the duty of the churches to their com
munities; and in this way each will
benefit, and will know how best to
enlarge its activities for the welfare
and uplift of the people in their sphere
of influence.
A general conference of 500 repre
sentatives from 200 Protestant socie
ties was held in Cleveland, Ohio, in
May, where the plan of the move
ment was approved. It has since been
indorsed by boards whose membership
comes from 76 denominations, repre
senting 200,000 churches, with a con
stituency of 50,000,000 persons.
The work as planned has already
been in operation in the state of Ohio,
where results have proven of the
greatest benefit to the forward move
ment of the churches; and tremendous
stimulus and growth has resulted al
ready from the (co-operation which has
been extended by all the denominations
in the various communities of the
state. Georgia is beginning the work
of making a survey at the present
time; and with the help of all Prot
estant bodies in the state is expected
to make rapid progress.
