Here is just one instance of the way Go*to-( ’hurch Day is being taken up ....... Editor Georgian: The first Sunday in January is the beginning of our new fiscal year, ar.d we had decided to have our annual “round-up” on that date, but your “Go-to-Church” Sunday has caught on with us, and I have decided to have our church rally on December 14 in stead Tt Is our plan to make that day the biggest and best in our his tory. not only because we desire to re-enlist all of our members at that time for the work of the new year, but because we want to show cur appreciation of The Georgian’s efforts to get the church-going habit on in Atlanta. I: is a great conception, and a task worthy of your splendid or ganization. If the churches of At lanta ould enlist the co-opera tion >f the press in the unique w;,v you have taken hold of this particular movement in a cam paign for a “Go-to-Church- Everv-flunday,” it would prove the greatest piece of constructive work ever contributed to the suc cess of our city. ! ommend The Georgian for ■preciation of the great value un going and for its prac- ind valuable .contribution to that end. Respectfully, JULIEN S. RODGERS. Pastor East Atlanta Baptist Chufch. 7 i general program of the two be- was left largely to the choos- r.p df 'he individual pastor. In many • • ’lurches the text will be from the twenty-seventh verse of 'he first chapter of James, al- gh this also is left at the option of the minister. This text originally was suggested by Bishop C. K. Nel son and is: "Pure religion and un- deflled before our God and Father is this: To visit the widows and fath erless in their affliction and to keep himself unspotted from .the world.” Laymen to Spe*k. The committee at its meeting rec ommended that some prominent lay man of each congregation be asked to speak briefly at the morning service on church attendance, the spirit of the day or some other appropriate subject. The committee expressed it self as desirous of the co-operation of all the newspapers of the city, so as to make the day the greatest possible success. Another meeting of the committee will be held next Monday when re ports will be heard from some of the church subcommittees and further suggestions made to insure getting out the maximum strength of the churches. Dr. H. M. Du Bose, one of the members of the committee, re- pottod that the enthusiasm of the ministers was great, and that all ac tively Mere Joining in to bring out every member on the rolls of their churches. Begin Work at Once. Some of the ministers did not waif for the formal indorsement of the Evangelical Ministers' Association, which was given last Monday at its monthly meeting, but started to work at once, as soon as the plan was launched, to arouse interest among the members of their congregation. Some did by personal appeal at the two services last Sunday and in the Sunday schools. Other supplement ed this by writing personal letters to everyone of the membership roll oi the church. Now the task of getting the invitation before practically every family in the city will devolve large ly upon the special committees to be appointed Sunday by the various pas tors. An accurate count of the attend ance will he made at both the morn ing and evening services by persons appointed by the pastor of the church. These figures will be given to the pastor, and he will enter them upon a return postal card, which will have been furnished him, and mail it im mediately after the last service. This will permit a compilation tolbe made early Monday forenoon. All Churches to Count. None of the churches will be omit ted in the count. Those that have other assembling days than Sunday will be counted on that day, as they should be included in the totals of Atlanta’s church attendance. Some little rivalry has developed among the colored churches as to which will have out the largest at tendance. Several of the larger negro churches take considerable pride in their long membership rolls, and there will be a determined effort on ine part of each of these to surpass all the others. The negro pastors are co-operating heartily In the move ment, and have instructed their con gregations to turn out ih full force. New York Life In surance Company 346 and 348 Broadway, New York.
