e i 8 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SUNDAY, JUNE 0. 1887.—~TWEL PAGES. : THE FIELD FOR EVANGELISTS, According to Dr. Helwig It Oovers the World, CHRISTIAN CHURCHES WANTED, They Are the Only Means of Solving the Mo ous Problems of Intemperance, Soclalism and Anarchy, Church Extension Meeting. The church extension anniversary oc- eurred in the evening. Rev. A. W. JLilly, D. D, ot York, Pu., presided. Rev. E. F. Bartholemew, of Carthage, IIL, and Rev. P. A. Heilman, of Denver, Col., assisted in the opening religious services. The first speaker was Rev. J. B. Helwig, D. D., of Springficld, 0., who Bpoke substantially as follows: 1n the anmversary g my remarks, in_the I refer to the extent of the field op- erations of the board of church extension; and in the second place they will refer to the caltivation of that field. ation—few in number and feeble in material ability-—-and then also without a house ot worship-—-and that congregation must necessarily have a conri But, on ‘the other tion, though few and ing a house of worship, tion can hardly be dis- ¢, but posse and that congre banded or destra L Qur first inquiry is, *“‘What is the ex- tent, the nature and’ the significance of the field which has been given to the Lutheran church, of the general synod, and which our board of church extension is expected to cultivate? And what, also, are the facilities for the rapid dissemina- tion of the truths of the gospel of Christ in this country, such as are not found in the other nations of the carth?” Notice for a moment, in the first place, the physical conformation--the form of the country in which God has given us our work to do. In Europe, for instance, the mountains occupy the central portion of the country, forming on either side rivers which flow in opposite seas. So also in Asia, There, too, the mountains di- vide the coniinent, filling from either side the rivers which pour themselves into widely separated oceans. There trade and commerce and the sympathies of the people also flow apart. But not so here. On our North American continent the mountains rise up on either coast, and from these the land slopes into one great central valley, and throughout which our two imperial rivers run; and into these their thousand thributaries flow. making but one vast middle conti- nent more than three million square mules in extent. A country as large as fourteen German cmpires; ns large as fif- teen French republics; as large as eigh- teen kingdoms of Sweden; as large as twenty-four times Great Britain and Ire- land; as large as twenty-five Norways, a8 large as twenty - seven Italys; fifty times England and Wales; nincty - eight times the land of John Knox, and 208 times the home of the Dane. Belgium and Switzerland and Irelund and all the Netherlands would scarcely make more country than Ne- braska. The field, then, for the operation of the board of church extension coml every community where the people are destitute of the gospel, all over this land of ours. And 1n its moral and spiritual material or elements of people it in- cludes all nationalitie: ‘The establishment of christian churches Wwith all that pertains to them, is the only way to solve the threatening problems of socialism and anarchy, intemperance, Sabbath desecration, and so on. If we are to prescrve what we now have, the various denominations of Christianity must be more for the evan- gelization of our citics than they have yet done herotofore. And we should never fail to remember that not individ- uals only, but cities and nationsare saved or they are lost, just in proportion to what the religion of Christ does for them. And hence also the duty to know aud to supply the moraland spiritual necessities of the times has never been so great in the history of this country as that duty is at the presont time. It is so0 often said: How noble 1t is for the missionary and his family, and his little band of christians, to contend with the discouragements, which come from worshipping in sheds and barns and 8hops, and in show rooms and dance halls, and so on, as the necessity of the coase 80 often is, if there 1s to be any pub- lic worship at all. Y. that may be noble on the part of the missionary” and his little band of christians, but is it noble on the part of a great church to compel them to do so, when itis within the ability of that church to enable them to do [otherwise? In such a cause our benevolence should abound. that our gonersl synod Lutheran church may arise and build as duty de- mands, and as before God's judgment throne, she will wish she had done, Dr. Helwig is an eloquent and im- ressive speaker. He was followed b v. W. M. Baum, D. D., of Philadel- phia, who in his usual happy munner wed that the continued "existence of the church extension society and its com- petent board is a necessity growing out of the ever expanding character of Lu- theran church work. It was mainly in- augurated by the laymen of the church, and 18 justly interpreted as in harmony with the methods of Providence in all the past history of our church. It adapts ftself most advantageously to all the other activities of the church, anda by ‘past successes and usefulness justifies the pruunlmfi disposition to enlarge its oper- ations and expand its capabilities. This E:“ for combined eftort should not, wevcr, be regarded as necessitating or even suggesting the diminuation of indi- vidual influence or efiort, but accenting it as it 18, with all its requirements, indi- vidual and concerted action can be com- bined for happiest results through the cs- tablished agency of this society. Rey. J. C. Zimmerman, the secretary of the board of church extensions, in a five- minute speech, gave a fow instances of the great material value to the church of the cuuse represented by the board, Mr, Zimmerman is the right man in the right nlace, and with his energy and ability to present the claims of his cause, the inter- ests of the board of church extension should be rapidly advanced in the Lu- theran church. ~ After the gathering of offerings for the cause presented during the evening the benediction was pronounced by Rev. Dr. Orb, president of the synod. Rev. M. Valentine, D. D., senior pro- fessor in the theological seminary at Get- tysburg, will preach the “sermon to-day, and Rev. A. Orb, D. D, resident of Wittenburg college, Spring- eld, 0., will preach in" the evening at Kouutze memorial church. An Afternoon Ride. The usual service preparatory to com. munion wure held at 2 o'clock, Rey. Eli Huber D. D, of Philadelphia preaching the sermon, At the conclusion of the re- ous services at 3:30 o'clock the mem- rs of the Nebraska Real Estate Ex- echange provided about 100 carrages, each carryng from four to six rcuon-’.lor the purpose of showing the city to the members of the convention, All except those who were left standing on the steps for want of room in the earringes enjoyed this diversion very greatly. e line of arch was down Harney, to Tenth, to rnam, up Farnam to "Sixteenth, to Kountz Place, where the procession broke ranks and scattered in all diree- Mons.
