Cooperation Urged In Waterloo Evangelistic Campaign
A city wide revival plan is proposed for Waterloo to run through March across all churches. No professional evangelist will be hired as efforts rely on pastors, cottage prayer meetings, special music, and publicity committees to draw crowds. The ministerial association forms an executive committee to coordinate ministries and invites intercessory prayer and cooperative events, with a possible tabernacle campaign in winter 1917-18 if an evangelist and plan are agreed.
