As some of the seats at the 11 o'clock service are reserved, it is diffi- | cult for visitors to Washington or new- comers to St. John's to find a place.

Another feature of this service at 19:30 has been a special appeal to | parents, for during the singing of the sermon hymn the church school chil- | dren will leave the church to go to | their classes.
