parish were solidly laid.
Then in the Spring oi 1916 th
Church of the Advent entered
new phase of its history. At tha
time the ground was broken fo
the present church building, ant
in the summer the cornel stom
was laid and the lovely lines of tin
Gothic structure began to taki
form, and the service of Conse
oration took placi April 26. 1917
This building was a gift of Mrs
James Grist Staton.
The old frame structure, tilt
originald church building has sei
ved since 1917 as quarters for the
church school.
At the close of the morning Ser
vice. the Bishop, clergy, parish
ioners and friends enjoyed a hear
ty luncheon. Bishop Wright's plaet
was marked with a replica of tht
original church building, complete
with tower and cross, in cake and
icing. Upon seeing this lovely
piece of culinary art. the Bishop
remarked that he had "consecrat
ed. dedicated, and deconsecrated
churches but that this would be
the first time he had ever eaten
one.”
After the luncheon Bishop
Wright made a short address, us
ing the Scripture "Let us run the
lace that is set before us, seeing
that we have so great a cloud of
witnesses. He particularly em
phasized the outstanding services
of the Rev. Thomas B. Haughton,
Col. Wilson G. Lamb. Mrs James
Grist Station, and Mis. J. H.
Saunders, the latter having work
ed with the choir for forty years.
"He would be great among you,
let him be as one who serves." The
Bishop said. 'These churches are
the hope oi tin world." And he
closed his address with these
words, "God bless this dav ,did
those who have gone before, those
witnesses who served Him faith
fully: and let us run the race set
before us. keeping our eyes on
Him who said, 'I am come that ve
may have life, and have it more j
abundantly'."
At eight o'clock there was Even- i
ing Prayer and sermon, the Rev.'
Edwin F Moseley, former rector,
being guest preacher. 'Reconcilia
tion with God, was the theme of
Mr Moseley's sermon. Said Mr.
Moseley. "Not just the turning
of u heels, the business of run- I
ning tin organizations m the1
church, nor the smug satisfaction
ol having only one's family and
friends as members, as if it were
iin exclusive club, but a playful
and earnest effort to bring our
selves and others into closer fel
lowship with God. should be the
aim and purpose of every one who
calls himself Christian. A recon
ciliation with God."
At tht’ close nl the evening ser
vice a reeption was held in the!
old church building and its repli
ca in cake and icing cut and serv
ed by the Bishop.
