St Saviours consecration in Youngsville church dedication
The Ledger notes the consecration of St Saviour's church in Youngsville with a cost estimate over $4,000. Right Rev Bishop Whitehead led services with rectors from Reading to Jamestown in attendance. The event featured a 24 boy choir, a visiting organist, and a lengthy dedication sermon. A banquet and religious toasts followed, with praise for C A Corwen and his wife and for Rev J T Schepeler for leadership. The article recounts the church’s growth from 3 members to 65 baptisms and 37 confirmed in three years, and funds paid off ahead of schedule.
