Evangelist says life book will not become dust
Rev Charles J Goodell of New York, secretary of the federal Council commission on Evangelism, told a large crowd at the First Methodist church that the only book that never ages is the Book of Life and urged parishioners to write their names in it. He stressed individual effort to bring others into the church and warned that the Church of the Living God must be alive with virtue to redeem the world. A monster men’s meeting followed in the afternoon, noting a rise in men turning to God, as the ten day campaign opened with nightly services.
