METHODIST CHURCH FOR HAVANA 



Resolutions which pledge every Metho- 

 dist church in Atlanta to support the move- 

 ment for the erection of a $20,000 church 

 and mission in Havana, were adopted with- 

 out dissent by more than 150 leading mem- 

 bers of the Laymen's Missionary Move- 

 ment at a meeting in Atlanta, Ga., Feb- 

 ruary 8th. 



By the action of the representatives of 

 the churches, the Methodists of Atlanta 

 assume the burden of raising the money 

 for the church and also for its support 

 until it is on its feet, so to speak. 



It is planned that $5,000 of the amount 

 shall be raised from among the Sunday 

 schools, $1,000 from the Epworth league 

 and the remaining $14,000 from a campaign 

 to be carried through the ranks of the 

 church. It is expected that the movement 

 in the interest of the Cuban church will 

 bear fruit before the end of the year. 



The action of the Atlanta Methodist lay- 

 men was somewhat hastened by the news 

 recently carried across the Gulf of Mexico 

 to the effect that the ^Methodists in Havana 

 were ir.aking little progress. It was charged 

 that the reason was the failure of the mis- 

 sionary movement to exercise a more care- 

 ful espionage in Cuba.
