KEV. McAKN AT HAGOOD
Will Speak at Church of Th? Ascension
Tuesday.
liagood, S. C., March 14.?At the
third of a series of services in the
interest of Church Unity and better
understanding among members of
different churches, Rev. A. 11. McArn,
Presbyterian minister of Camden,
will speak in the Church of the
Ascension, liagood, (Episcopal) on
the History and Principles of the
Presbyterian Church next Tuesday
night at 8:00 o'clock. The hour has
been changed from 7:30.
Mr. McArn and members of the
men's club of the Camden church
visited the men's club at liagood
last fall, which visit Rev. Moultrie
Cuerry and men from Ascension
Church rejturned. The impression Mr.
McArn made at the men's supper
last fall will go before him and assure
him a very warm welcome again
in liagood.
1'hese services are of such general
interest and are intended so to inhance
the spirit of unity and community
and give such opportunity for
a hearing of the Church in greater 1
fulness than is often our lot to hear,
that a very cordial invitation goes
out to everyone of whatever faith.
And indeed the invitation is being
accepted, judging by the congregation
that heard Dr. John A. Brunson,
Pastor of Grace Baptist Church,
Sumter, last night, in an address both
illuminating and inspiring. In the
chancel with Dr. Brunson and the
rector, were Rev. Karl W. Kinard,
Lutheran minister of Sumter who
read the Scripture lesson, Rev.
J. B. Walker, Episcopal minister
of Sumter, who led in the Lord's
Prayer, and Rev. J. E. Cook, Meth-.
odist pastor of Rembert, who offered
a prayer.
Mr. Cook began the series of addresses
a week ago. Dr. Brunson
will be followed in turn by Mr. McArn,
Tuesday, March 20; Mr. Kinard
March 27; and April 3 Mr. Guerry
will give a summary.
A Parallel series is being held
every Thursday night at The Church
of the Holy Cross, Stateburg, at 8:00
o clock. Rev. G. T. Harmon, Trinity
Methodist Church, Sumter, March 15;
Mr. Kinard, March 22; and Dr. John
M. Wells, Presbyterian minister of
Sumter, March 29. Mr. Guerry will
celebrate the Lord's supper Maundy
Thursday, April 5, and will give a
summary, seeking possibilities of
unity.
