Among The Churches

New York, 1895

Doings of the Various Religious Bodies Throughout the Island.

A new communion set has been presented to the Good Ground M. E. church by a summer resident of the place.

The fair held in Cutter's Hall at Little Neck for the benefit of the parish house fund of Zion church netted $238.

The Epworth Methodist church of Whitestone has been presented with a set of silver plates for collection purposes.

The Bellmore M. E. Church is experiencing a sweeping revival through evangelistic services held by John Norberry. It is said such an awakening has not been seen for years.
