The Fraternal Council of Negro
Churches in the United States of
fprs a real rh!illi.n}ri> t7? m-gnniy.od
Negro Christianity. Today the Nei
gro religious denominations- are
each going their separate ways in
Evangelism and Religious Education,
while in the social, economic
apd." political realm. t,h? attitude
and influence is something sepa
rate and -opart.?Neither our race
nor our country has had the com
btnethweighC^nd-influence of Those
bodies, acting as a whole.
The Fraternal of Negro Denominations
in the United States was
organized in Chicago in August,
1934, by voluntary representatives
_ * it. _ 1 rr* '
oi me ainerent religious denominations
organized a'hd controlled
by black men and women. While
these voluntary * representatives
thority, they derived credentials
from their standing and influence
in their- respective churches. .
'The Fraternal Council does not
concern itself with questions of religious
doctorine, polity or creed.
It seeks to be an articulate voice
and influence for" the ir te as a
whole in the matters touching
their social, economic,?industrial
political, educational and moral
welfare.

Our lack of organization and cooperation
constitute our chief weak
-.ne.ss and makes us Che commor
piey.oi wie nnanciui, industrial, sor
cial and political forces round about
us.
? . Our churches constitute the onl\
avenue through "which the great
mass of our people can be directly
: reached by their own chosen lead"^7"
vrs Tend* representatives. ?If -'the
race is to achieve freedom, justice
and equality, to whom shall we
look to bring them in?
Forty thousand Negro preacher*
in the United States are on the
payroll of members of their' own
race. They are not subject to the
?influence and command of political
.parties; since they can he either
^Tiired nor .fired they are five to
fight the' oattle fo industrial an:'
social justice. Tliey arc., .no' !ik?

The Fraternal Council of Negro
Churches in the United States will
hold its Annual Convention in the
A. M. E. Zion Church, Cleveland,
Ohio, August 21, 22, 23, 4035. We
ask, we pray, we beg, we plead,
for leaders in the various religious
denominations to come and join
us there and give us the benefit of
their council and cooperation. If
I could I would n^ake this a bugle
