Y.P.C.U. Meeting Minutes, Jan 11, 1920 (Busy Agenda)

Jan 11, 1920

On Sunday Jan 11, 1920, a short business meeting was held at the regular hour of the devotional services.

The President, Miss Bowers, called the meeting to order.

The first subject discussed was “Leaders for the devotional services on Jan 18 and 25,” as there has not been appointed by the Devotional Committee. Miss Bowers agreed to lead on the 18th and Miss Rhyne on the 25th.

The subject of the Young People’s Week was then discussed and it was decided to observe his as nearly as possible according to the plans formulated by the National Union.

The President then appointed Miss Rhyne, Mrs. Clare and Waldo Rasnake as a committee to work up plans for the week and especially endeavor to secure as many young people to attend services on Sunday Jan 25 as possible.

It was moved, seconded and carried that Dr. Keirn be requested to ask the Board of Trustees of the Church to let the offering not in the envelopes on Young People’s Day go the work of the Union.

The Question of Topics for February was discussed and it was decided to use the regular topics for February which would necessitate holding a mission study class instead of the regular devotional topics. Dr. Keirn very kindly offered to conduct this class if we could have least ten in the class and the secretary was instructed to write to the Universalist Publishing House and secure ten copies of the book “Ministers of Mercy” to be used in connection with the class.

Dr. Keirn requested Miss Bowers and Miss Durdin to see all of the members of the Union and secure as many members for the Mission study class as possible.

There being no further business, the meeting then adjourned.
