Fleet Street memorial A. It E. Zion Church Through the pastor of Fleet Street First A. M.

E. Zion Church, Rev. W. C. Brown, God communicated the revelation of Himself in terms that any man could comprehend in both the morning and evening messages.

Having a thorough knowledge of prevailing intellectual conceptions enables the pastor of this church to adapt himself to his audiences at all times. The deep impression made and left in the minds of the listeners, is due to the fact that there is always something in his messages for everyone. The Sunday school and Christian Endeavor services were interesting and uplifting. The leaders and workers of these departments are making desperate efforts to equip themselves for the work in these departments, that those who attend this church school may get the best information. Working toward this goal, the general superintendent, Frank A.

Ray, together with fifteen other workers attended the annual Church School Convention of the New York Conference, A. M. E. Zion Church, at Portchester, New York, during the past week end, which proved to be the greatest convention of its kind held in this section. Fleet Street Church mourns the loss of one of its loyal and active members in the person of Mrs.

Amanda Hill, whose remains were federalized in the church on Wew nesday eevning, February 19. The pastor's eulogy, the crowded edifice, the floral pieces all were a high trjbute to her worth throughout her many years of service. Both the senior and junior choirs participated in the service.
