FOUNDERS DAY
Be it resolved, first, That we set apart the Sunday nearest the
sixteenth of September each year, as Founder's Day, to be observed in
the Sunday-schools, Epworth Leagues, and by the Pastors and
Congregations throughout the Connection.
Second, That programs be arranged and suitable services held in every
charge throughout the connection. In every service effort should be
directed to acquaint the public with the history of our Church, and to
inspire the youth with its hope and prospects of the future.
Third, That the collections raised in the Sunday Schools and Epworth
Leagues, shall be used for suffering churches in populous centers—as
Kansas City, Savannah, Ga., Miles Memorial, Jacksonville, Fa., Israel
Metropolitan and Berkeley, Cal.
Fourth, That the money from the Leagues and Sunday Schools shall be sent
to the Book Agent, subject to the Bishop of the district, and reported
by him at the mid-winter meeting. It shall then be subjected to the
Publishing Board to be applied to the churches above listed in
proportions to the amount due on each and its importance to the
Connection.
