In the past, efforts of the church have consisted | mainly in discussions and pronounce- ments and, while these are valuable, | we feel that the church has failed to | exercise her primary function in mak- ing a spiritual approach to this ques- tion. We in Washington are located in the administrative center of our Government, which is making every | effort to bring about world stabiliza- | tion, end intimately linked with this | should be the prayers of the church, | beginning in the Capital and extend- | ing throughout the Nation. “Several persons in governmental | circles have already commended this program, which has just been inaugu- rated. “The surprising attendance at the Armistice day service is a clear indication that multitudes, who desire peace, but differ in concepts as to| how it may be obtained, find in this prayer service at Epiphany the one practical method in which we all may unite.
