The Year Book Of The Unitarian Congregational Churches For

Excerpt from The Year-Book of the Unitarian Congregational Churches for 1892: With Calendar Adapted for Use Throughout the Country A study of the year-book of 1892 ought to fill our people with cheerful faith. Our religious body has now passed through the periods of forma tion and organization, and has entered upon a period of great moral and Spiritual activity. At the last National Conference it was reported that over Sixty new parishes had come into being within two years. The call for still other new parishes continues, and in the future must steadily grow more imperative. One thing stands in the way of progress, -the scantiness of the contributions of our parishes. For years the demands upon our treasury have been many thousand dollars above the gifts of our people. Those demands must be more rather than less hereafter. So the word of the year-book, and the word coming through every avenue of approach to our people is and must be a. Call for greater generosity. In every direction there is evidence that more minds and souls are turning to us for aid than hitherto. The circulation of our books and tracts constantly increases. Each State calls for missionary labor that we cannot furnish. In special directions, too, our success has been apparently satisfactory. The Montana Indian School is full, and the means for its support have been furnished. In Japan the work has been thoroughly organized, a number of preaching-stations have been established, and a training-school for native ministers Opened, to which eight promising pupils have come.
