14 NEWS OF THE HARRISBURG CHURCH WORLD BUSINESSMEN TO SUPPLY SERMONS Dr. 6 Smucker Will Preach on Church Questions as They See Them More than a month ago Dr. Clay ton Albert Smucker sent to twenty five businessmen in the city the fol lowing letter, to gain information on which to base a series of sermons: My dear Sir: As a minister of one of the churches of Harrisburg, I am desirous of obtaining the opinion of some of the leading business and professional men relative to the church and its work in this city, I am intensely conscious of the fsct that ofttimes ministers have very indis tinct, or at least vague ideas as to the real mind and attitude of the business world toward the church and ministry of our modern times. Personally, as a minister, I should like very much to have you give me a l'rank and open expression of your views upon certain questions that are vital to church problems in Harris burg. I ask this of you for the reason that I desire to look to these prob lems from the standpoint of the busi ness world, as well as from the stand point of the ministry. I assure you that I shall be deep ly interested in any answer you may give to my queries or any suggestions you may have to offer. I am writing to a number of the citizens of Harris burg and I am frank to say that their replies will form the basis of a series of sermons which I hope to preach during the month of October. If if is not asking too much, will you kind ly give me a word or two on the fol lowing questions: Why do so many men pass by the door of the church? What do you consider the most im portant work beipg done by the churches of Harrisburg? What do you consider the greatest weakness of the modern church? What specific evils, if any, in our city should receive attention from the pulpit? Is the modern church, in your esti mation, fulfilling the office for which it was founded by Jesus Christ? Your replies wilT be considered strictly confidential and your name will not appear in any of the ser mons which I may deliver on the sub jects suggestd by these replies. Thanking you in advance, I am Most cordially yours, Clayton Albert Smucker, Minister of Stevens Memorial Church.
