SOUND BUSINESS
BASIS FOR CHURCH
Inferchurch World Movement
Natural Growth Of Tendency
To Eliminate Waste
AVOIDS USELESS COMPETITION
Religious Financiering Revolutionized
By Success Of Men And Millions
Movement And Co-operation
Is Result
The Interchurch World Movement
of North America is an attempt by
j I evangelical forward looking denominations leaders of the various
of the Unit
| od States and Canada to co-ordinate
resources in men, money and "mate
j rial for Protestant America.
Historically it is the logical out¬
growth of a tendency of the national
boards in each denomination to form
working alliances among themself :
in which each board shall preserve its
identity and control its own personnel
and treasury.
Tn former times, the home mission
society, the foreign mission society,
the church extension society and th<
various philanthropic and eleemosy¬
nary agencies of any denomination
conducted their affairs independently
of one another Each surveyed it‘<
own !• tricted territory, prepared a
budget of money and workers for its
own purposes and made its own ap
peal to its constituency for support.
This could only mean that these
sgencies wore more or less in com¬
pel it ion with one another; that there
wore waste and duplication of work
td money, and that among them all
nnio work was *i alerted and some
denominational resources were entire
!y overlooked. Because of their spe
-ializod training, the leaders of each
gency regarded themselves as peeu
Marly fitted lor their tasks, and ;jeal
on: ly regarded attempts at outside
nterferenco.
Decide On Experiment
After decades of such haphazard
methods, the lenders of one denomina¬
tor! decided on an experiment. They
thought it would be possible for the
tgeneb s to got together for a coni
ion study of ail the opportunities and
(-sources of their brotherhood, to
lake out a unified budget of men an
uoney, and to conduct a concerted ap
cal for funds. It was made clear
each constituent board should
^reserve complete autonomy.
When the board representatives mr !
'hey found it possible to eliminate :
;r< at amount of organization e:.
penses. They ultimately worked ou
a. budget and plan of campaign the
n«s satisfactory to all. This resultf
in the famous “Men and Million
Movement" of the Disciples of Christ,
which brought in what was then con
sidered the stage- ring sum of $6.
*00,000 for a five-year program, Tin
members of the communion were se
pleased with tills b i iness-like method
of conducting at. ir that they con
tributed even more generously thar
had been expected.
The success of this enterprise revo¬
lutionized t lie whole business of
rhurcli financiering. The other great
denominations immediately adopted
die plan. The denominational associa¬
tions have come to be known as “for¬
ward* movements.” and some thirty of
hem are in existence today. Each one
has elarifi< d all the information in re
’ at ion to enterprise within the denomi
”a ion, and has reduced the business
.if collecting and spending money to a
-cience.
World-Budget. Formed
The Tntercliurch World Movement is
r.imply a plan to do interdenomination
ally what the forward movements
have done within the various com
munions. Tt means that every denomi
national budget will be made in the
fight of world needs instead of in the
■omi-obscurity of incomplete informa¬
tion. Tt means that contributions to
one denomination will not be in waste¬
ful competition with contributions to
another, because all the fellowships
ill have worked out their program
ogefher.
The functions of the Interchurch
World Movement are threefold. First,
it collects, by means of world surveys,
all the pertinent facts on which de¬
nominational programs may bo built.
Second, it sets up the practical ma¬
chinery of co-operation. Third, it acts
in an advisory capacity whenever its
advice is requested.
The Movement has nothing to do
with organic church union or matters
of creed or doctrine. Each constituent
unit preserves complete autonomy, and
is bound only so far as it wishes to be
bound. Financial ‘appeals are made
by each denomination to its own con
tituency. Any surplus in undesignat¬
ed funds, over and above the actual
ost of administration, will be prorat¬
ed among the -denominations engaged j
in a given financial undertaking.
An illustration of one thing the
Movement can do is to be found in a
western community of 1.600 persons
in which thirteen denominations have j
been supporting separate churches
with missionary funds, while an adja¬
cent territory of 50.000 persons has
only three churches. By seeing that all
missionary boards are supplied with
information in such cases, the Move¬
ment will make possible a wiser dis
£
division of labor in unoccn- >
