Mrs. D. J. Lane gave a brief
address on the growth of the.
World Day of Prayer from 1919-
1920 when the first committee was
formed and the first Friday in
Lent set aside as a day of prayer
for women: In 1927 an Interim -
Committee of Women's Missionary
Societies of the various churches
in Canada had been established.
Mrs. D. B. Donaldson was chair-
man and three representatives
were appointed by each of the
boards of the various churches.
Its Main object was to Pro-
mote the World Day of Prayer.
and allocating of the offering
to the publication and distribution.
of Christian literature. Twenty-
five years later, word came frorn
the church women of the USA,
that 104 countries celebrated this
year-round bond amongst Christ-
ians.
Mrs. Lane pointed out that the
growth of the observance in Can-
ada had been phenomenal, In
1952, 2,388 groups had participat-
ed, not counting those listening to
the radio service or shut-ins, who
according to the Saviour's prom-
ise: "Where two or three are gath-
ered together in My Name, there
am I in the midst," worshipped in
small groups. The number of
copies of the order of service had
increased to 170,000, In 1952, the
total collection had been $31,590, a
ten -fold increase in 21 years, The
late Miss Bessie Macmurchy, To-
ronto, had been treasurer for 22
years.
Out of the interim -committee
had grown an Inter -Church Coun-
cil of Canada to take in not only
purely missionary societies but all
women, the main object of which
is to unite women of Canada in
every Christian effort to bring in
the Kingdom of God in their own
churches and throughout the
world.
Interest in the day has deepen-
ed and influence has spread; a
greater generosity has enabled in-
crease in grants and additions of
new ones to literature.
These were the facts which Mrs.
Lane made most interesting at
this very impressive service.
