Episcopal Church Seeks Five “Ships” to Win Its Nation-Wide Campaign

Rev. George Craig Stewart, D. D., rector of St Luke’s Episcopal church, Evanston, HL, formerly a chaplain in the A. E. F., says the nation-wide campaign of the Episcopal church is a campaign sot “ships.” They mean “winning the war,” he said, just as much as the ships asked for ny the United States shipping noard or by Lloyd George. The “snips,” Doctor Stewart suggests, are the following: 1. MEMBER-SHIP. We are members of His body. 2. DISCIPLE-SHIP. It is one thing to be a Christian, another to be a devoted Christian disciple. palgn lays emphasis on Holy Communion together with God in Christ. 4. STEWARD-SHIP. It includes a campaign for money. St Paul said, “It is not the money I am anxious for, but for the interest that accumulates in this way to your divine credit” 5. LEADER-SHIP. Not merely a campaign for more candidates tor holy orders, but for eaders among our laity also.
