ZION UNIFICATION REPORT. 1927 PITTSBURG, PA., July 8—Following up article last week regarding unification of the A. M. E. and the A. M. E. Zion churches into the proposed new organization of the United Methodist Episcopal Church we now come to the thing that usually is a great stumbling block in the merging of most institutions. Because of the long existence of both churches they have naturally developed their own individual internal political machinery. Herein lies the big obstacle which the members of the organ commission sought with open mindedness to lay before the churches in a manner which makes ample provisions that should make it easy for the consummation of the proposed plan. The question of who shall fill the offices has been worked out and on the surface appears exceedingly practical. The report calls for 9 Episcopal districts. The general officers and departments they fill follows: Departments and Officers The Department of Finance will have one secretary; as will the departments of Education, Foreign Missions; Auxiliary Foreign Missions; Home Mission, Auxiliary Home Missions; Church Extension. The publication department will have three managers. One located in Philadelphia, another in Charlotte N. C. and a third in Nashville, Tenn Officers for the Department of Church Sunday School and Social Service Endeavors to be as follows: (a) director of Surday Schools; (b) director of Christian Endeavor; (c) editor of Church School Literature. The department of Ministerial Relief and Pension is to have a secretary. The department of Publications to have an editor of Christian Recorder, at Philadelphia, Pa.; editor of the Star of Zion at Charlotte, N. C.; editor of the Southwestern Herald at New Orleans, La., or Dallas, Tex.; editor of United M. E. Quarterly Review; editor of Church School Herald to be elected by the Board of Missions. The Department of History and Statistics to be headed by an Historographer. The commission recommends that representatives of the present A. M. E. Zion churches be allotted an equal number of recommendations of general officers to be elected for the first eight years of the new United Methodist Episcopal Church at the first General Conference of the proposed organization and at the end of that time the candidates stand on their own merits.

Although Jesus had the power of life and death, he exercised this supreme power only three times—in the cases of Lazarus, the son of the widow, and the daughter of Jairus. 2. In each case it was exercised in the realm of family life—a sister receives a brother back from death; a mother a son, a father a daughter. 3. The ground in each case for action was faith. 4. Faith is the fundamental necessity for life—Faith in ourselves, faith in others, faith in God, self. 5. One must have faith in himself to know that he can move God him. 6. In exercising faith in others, we may often be deceived, but it is better to be deceived often than to fall short of real faith where it is deserved. 7. Without faith in a friendly God back of the universe, our lives are sure to be embittered. 8. This miracle of raising of the daughter of Jairus teaches the necessity of an optimistic attitude to ward life. 9. Here we have a two-fold ground of optimism—that things are not as bad as we suppose, and that there are (Continued on page four) ° * “ee . Ne he ~ 7 = a x : .

S. and B. Y. P, U, Conven- tion in June, it was agreed by motion that because of the urgent reeds of the State Mission Work that a special appeal be made at the s2v- eral churches of the State to be paid into the offlee of the State Mission- ary at least one half of their year’s quota by July 31, 1927, This becomes urgent because up to date there is a general deficit in our State of $3800. growing out of the fact that many of the churches for one reason or another have not paid their quota up to date. We realize that many churches are planning to bring their full quota tothe State Convention in October, but we need the money now in ord-r to continue our werk on the needy mission ficlds of the Sua.c. Every Dollar sent in will be credited to your budget and reported at the State Convention, * ‘Will you not, pastors and members, make a special eTort to bring at least your quota up to date avd relieve the present embarrassment of press- ing obligations? +, We are depending upon you for help. Do not fail us ot this crucial, moment. | REV. W. A. LOWREN, Pr-vident REV. A. W. ROSS, Sgt. Missions REV, B, L.
