is not to awaken men ,to i the value of their souls,
nor to lead Christians to strive after their own
growth:in grace. It is intended to suggest some
xlans,for the better directiovhf Christian effort,
so as to bring the memhers of churches generally,
to living contact with the unevangelize4 memos

where there is religious life -it will be displayed
