program was by vute given to tho Deaconess Board submitted through the Chairman G U D D its report After four years of preparation sis years of work as a Board we are mitted to place upon record the practical accomplishment of tho task we were pointed to do We have secured and trained an adequate number of sisters for the establishment of a Deaconess Mother house and Training School and now offer to the Church an institution prepared to undertake the duty of trains ing its daughters in appropriate spheres of the Christian ministry At Canton two years ago we reported that two had entered upon a course of training Sis more have done ao since then At the present time four of the who were sent to Germany and two who have been educated in this country are ready to enter upon the work of establishing a training school Of the remaining two one Sister garda Wilhelm of Shelby Ohio will re- main another year in Germany to com- plete her course of preparation as er of a primary school the other was found to the demands imposed upon the sisters and was obliged to return to her home The sisters who are ready to enter upon their work arc the Augusta V Shaffer Delaware O Lucy Eystor Sophia Dee Moines Iowa Philadelphia Emma Steon Richmond Ind Jennie Christ Kan Kaisers worth Lena Kasewurm Plymouth Pa New York The object of the proposed training school is to prepare young women to bo efficient helpers in tho work of the Christian Church in its relations to the spiritual and temporal wants of men This work includes first the care of the sick nnd dependent in hospitals other institutions of public secondly it includes Iho duty of ministry in the local church auch as tho cure of the sick in their own homes looking after the neglected and dependent ing in Sunday and sewing schools man aging Young People's associations or guilds To this will be added as soon as opportunity offers the care of primary schools kindergartens and day series In general the object of this work is to apply the consecrated and trained ability of woman to the many wants of human life in the office of the female diaconate as this office has been indicated in the Scriptures and as it has manifested its marvelous adaptation to the wants of onr clay in the history of its development during the past sixty years Theological seminaries have been found in preparing young men for the duties of the ministry of the Word Tho Deaconess training school may in like manner prove an invaluable agency in preparing women fur the opened ah 907 in Baltimore vice for which they are peculiarly fitted There must be a house in which the sisters reside and form a family for themselves in which the probationers ore instructed in the methods and made acquainted with the spirit of the service to which they intend to devote selves Also a small hospital under tbe care of the sisters The government of the house should be in the hands of a minister of executive ability and possessed of pastoral gifts and In the internal affairs of the house he may be assisted by one of the sisters for the time being as superintendent The house should furnish practical training in all the branches of Christian work that have been named and besides there should be a curriculum of study a tht ing Tho Holy the Catechism Church History the Female Disco rate the Service of tha Church German Music Cooking At- least two hours a clay will bo required for recitations and lectures In giving such instruction the pastor may be by other competent ministers and teachers A generous is recorded from the ministers and congregations of the Lutheran church in Baltimore trans- mitted through the Bev Dr Studebaker and Mr W L Armiger to the that they would stand responsible for the providing in tho city of Baltimore of a large finely located and modern furnished house to be at the disposal of the board for three years from ber 1 1895 This generous oiler was accepted and the home is to be North S niton avenue on October 1 1895 with Miss A V Shaffer daughter of the Dr Shaffer as Mother Superior in the new home The expenses of con- ducting the institution is estimated at annually Tlie the Church In what way can the churches help the Chiefly by seeking out young women among their members who possess the gifts and realize a call to the work of the female diaconate Suitable candidates will bo received at the training school free of charge for board and tuition Another way is to study the needs of their own local work so as to ascertain in what way the vices of a Christian woman may be made effective in advancing tho ness of tho church in- the community We believe that within the bounds of the General Synod where such helpers would prove ins valuable lid When the churches have given thought to these two things it will not be for us to sny anything concerning the collection Our institution is still in infancy It has had a slow almost imperceptible growth for a decade of years But we it over to our successors with the firm belief that a good foundation has seen laid and that a hopeful future awaits the church through the tion of the apostolical institution of the ernale diaconate GEORGE U

church was mads by Mr W L Armiger On the adoption of the report as a whole tho chairman Dr stated that he was not in accord with the resos lution to establish the Home in more It is one of the disappointments of my life but I will accommodate my opinion to that of tho Board I believe that the Institution should have been left in New York city abundant success and tho blessing of God upon the movement Dr Dorner In the ment of a Home we should seek with the Mary Drexel Home in Philadelphia Instead of going to many for helpers could we not get them from the Home at We ought to come into
