kev. €, 6. Scriven New Norwich District Superintendent Had Successful Pastor-| ™ ate in Attleboro Chuerpointment to This District .- Was a Surprise But a Promotion Well Deserved. —_— Rev. G. G. Scrivener of Attleboro, Mass,, the newly appointed district su- Derintendent for the Norwich district of the New England Southern confer- ence of Methodist Episcopal churches, preaches his farewell sermon in At- tleboro tomorrow and will leave during next week for this city. Rev. Mr. Scrivener was given -a farewell re- ception at the Attleboro church last Tuesday evening. Of his appointment &s Norwich dis- trict superintendent the Attleboro Sum says: 2 One of the most unexpected assign- ments at the New England Southern | conference in New Bedford Monday was the appointment of Rev. George G.. Scrivener as the Norwich district superintendent. Mr. Scrivener has been pastor of the local Methodist church for the past two years, and has been most successful in his work. {ot only was the assignment a sur- prise to the members of the confer- ence. but to Mr. Scrivener himself, for he had net been approached on’ the matier and the first intimation he had of his promotion was when the bishop read his name as the new district superintendent. telephoned at once to Attleboro, and for a time it was thought that a storm | of protest would be lodged With the | bishop, but'it js hardly possible that this will be 'dofte, as Mr. Scrivener has receiveq a well-carned promotion. and | his_successor, Rev. Robert S. Moore, is_ane of the strongest .men in .the | cofiference. . Built Up the Church. Since coming to ' Attleboro, Mr. | Serivener has buiit up the church m terially. The membership has in-| creased, “the 'enroliment of the Sun- day school has increased. the young people’s societies have grown, and the | congregations have almost doubled. & forceful speaker, a tireless worker, and a man of unusual executive ability, Mr. Scrivener in his two short vears | in town has recorded himself as one | of the most able pastors that the local | church ever had. The past winter the mortgage on the church was raised and was public- Iy burned at a meeting last February, which was presided over by Bishop Hamilton,-the same man who appoint- ed Mr. Scrivener to. the superinten- dency. ¥ Mr. Serivener will preach his fare- well: sermon next Sunday and will | <eave soon after for Norwich, Conn., ‘where.he will make his headquarters, Native of Enaland. Mr. Serivefier was born in England and educated in: English schools. He came to this country years ago and | studied ‘at Boston University College of Liberal Arts and Theological Sem- inary, graduating from the seminary in 1300. While a student, he preached at Berkley, Mass., for, three years. or An Able Pastor that | i The news was | | into five districts. { wich has been miost prosperous in the | has arrived | last Thursday ‘to He was admitted to the New Eng- Jand Southern conference in 1500 and was appointed to Howard church, New Bedford, for three years and then for three years to Cotuit, Mass. He then served five years at First church, East Weymouth and in 1911 was transterred to Attleboro. His pas- torate in Attleboro has been moSt suc- cessful; the church has been enlarged and repaired and the debt has been paid off. Mr. Scrivener has a wife and a 13-year-oid daughter, Ruth. Rev. Mr. Scriveners promotion re- sults from the retirement of Rev. John H. Newland who has completed his term of six vears at Norwich and who | now has been assigned to Fall River. Ministers of .the Norwich district on Saturday had -e-Jmeeting to. give ex- pression of preference for SUperin- tendent. First choice wont to Rev. C. Harley Smith and second choice went to Rev. [R. S. Moore; the new Attleboro pas- tor. A long list of names was sug- gested for the yacancy including Reve. Dr. J._F. Cooper of Brocktonm, Rev. W. J. Yate< of Fall River, Rev. L. M. Flocken of Wiiimantic and Rev. L. H. Horton of Stafford Springs. District Created in 1869. The Norwich district is the smaliest in the conference.
