VI. REPORTS

TARLAC DISTRICT

LORENZO T. TAMAYO

This is a report for the n.ineteenth year of the work in our Dis­trict and my twenty-ninth year in the ministry. Through these years, God has saved me and kept me by His love and strengthened me in the field of labors. With the good cooperation of all my be­loved co-workers, togeth€'r with those lovely missionaries who labored with us in His vineyard. Again I give thanks unto the Lord for all these beautiful experiences and success.

We have been counting this year the hardest year of work be­cause of the coming into existence of the so called "New Movement," and the many difficulties we had to meet daily. Nevertheless, in all these hard circumstances we have gone through victoriously with the care and love of the Lord.

Evangelization Revivals were had in every circuit held by our Pastors, Deaco­

nesses, Bible Women and our District Missionary, Miss Leila Dingle. In Cuyapo where there are some splitters lead by one of their

able leaders and advocates of that movement, there were eight families baptized before the very eyes of the enemies. It is very in­teresting to note that even if there are some who had gone away, many more were accepted and baptized into the faith. Our con­ferences, conventions and institutes were turned into revival services in which many were baptized, especially among the youth. Those who went away were eight probationers and a pastor.

The number of converts this year is three hundred and seventy. It is increased by sixty against that of last year. We baptized one hundred fifty adults and five hundred thirty five children.

There was held an institute for all the workers and two institutes for the women workers which were lead by our District Missionary. The Daily Vacation Bible Schools were held in eighteen different circuits and places in which the members were awakened in their Christian life and there were new members accepted.

Organizations With the new enthusiasm and activities among our leaders in

every chapter the Epworth Leagues are again revived. We recently got the two prizes offered at the Epworth League Institute in Li~ gayen last December. We have more members this year in this society.

There were organized three Sunday Schools, two in Baler, Tayabas, and one in Padapada, Santa Ignacia, Tarlac. We have some improvements this year, and the members increased through the good leadership of all those who participated in this work.

We have this year three newly organized congregations, Dibocaw, Depocolao Baler and Padapada. Sta. Ignacia, Tarlac. Two of these, Dibocaw and Depacolao are ready to build their chapels. Weare hoping this coming year 1934, all these chapels will be finished.

The Deaconess Alumni, Bible Women's Aid and the Mission Domestic societies have also done their bit and though we have a smaller amount collected as compared with that of the previous years, they were able to help two Bible Women who worked in Baler and also our District Evangelist. With the collected funds from

51

these societies we were able to help some places where the work is newly opened. The credit of the success is given to Mrs. Regina An~ tonio, President of the Women's Aid Society.

The Tarlac Preachers' Association was reorganized. The reor­ganization of this has given us a new sense of deeper feeling for a better cooperative spirit among us in the work.

Construction In the midst of difficulties and financial shortages which were and

are prevalent in the whole District, we have built a new chapel in Lupao, Nueva Ecija, under the energetic leadership of our young Pastor Mr. Pascua. It is said that they did not spend a single cen­tavo for this chapel, but. it was built by themselves. They did their lumbering and building with the help of their pastor. The estimated value of this chapel is P200.00.

We had to finish the reconstruction of the chapel at La Paz and the building of the parsonage, so that we had spent about P600.00 in all. I give thanks for the interest of the Pastor and all those who helped in this big work.

The three newly organized congregations. in Baler, are ready to build their churches. They have already the wood materials, bolts and nails, but they are eager to receive any thing the Mission can give to them for iron roofing.

The total sum for new buildings and reparations done at Victo­ria, Tarlac, La Paz and San Jose, Nueva Ecija is P1,088.00 (This amount has decreased the self-support for the workers.)

Condition oj Chu1'ches

All the congregations were loyal, as no one left the church or died. On the other hand, they were strengthened and have kept on going as usual with their official boards functioning.· At present there are some congregations who are ea,ger to have their own Bible Women, providing support for them.

Eighteen probationers left the Church with a pastor but we must know that it is only this year we received new pastors at the same time. Now, we can say this "The present trouble in the church today has not made us weak but even stronger than before."

Economical Condition of the Churches

The migration of many members from our District to the Ca­gayan Valley and the increased number of our ministers decreased the per capita support for every worker this year. Nevertheless we were able to go through by the love of God and His divine guid­ance.

The District Stewards with the aid of our District Evangelist Mr. Hilario Tumamao have done their best to raise the necessary funds for each circuit. It was really a trying year this year espe­cially in this line of self-support, but we know God's providence never fails us for he cares for us even in the midst of hardships.

Good Ooope7'ation

With the good spirit of cooperation among us in these different provinces, T~rl~c, Nueva Ecija and. Baler, Tayabas which compose the whole dIstrIct, we had accomplIshed our work harmoniously in our institutes, conventions and in our evangelistic services and cam­paigns with results. We speak different dialects, yet this did not

52

ninder us from working together for we have one Master, one com­mon love and a common cause.

The last District Conference we had at San Jose, Nueva Ecija was a marked success. We had here the largest number of delegates who attended. We did not expect as large a delegation of two hun­dred like we had at the last. We had the greatest number of can­·didates for Exhorters and candidates for our different institutions in our church, as well as good reports of work done.

We appreciate the fine spirit of our brethren from Baler who ,came to the District Conference, numbering 28 in all. These breth­ren and their Pastor walked over mountains, forests and rivers for .about three days' journey to the Conference. Yes, they were willing to do all these because of the love of Him who taught them to love His work.

As I stand before you to read my first report, I wish :&rst of all to acknowledge our deep gratitude to the Heavenly Father who has given us health and courage and whose blessings continually rest upon the work. I wish to congratulate my predecessor, Rev. Seve­rino Cordero, who inspired me to become an evangelical minister of .Jesus Christ and who rendered valuable and unselfish service during the many years of his administration. I also wish to express my sincere appreciation and thanks for the constant encouragement, counsel and co-operation of Dr. E. S. Lyons and Dr. B. O. Peterson and other Missionary and Filipino co-workers.

I shall never forget that momentous occasion when the presiding Bishop of the Annual Conference of last year, Bishop Herbert Welch, appointed me to shoulder a bigger and heavier responsibility and a more difficult task. I felt my littleness compared to the bigness and sacredness of the work imposed upon me. However two of the oldest District Superintendents, oldest not only in age but in service and in experience, lifted up their hearts in prayer in my behalf to the throne of grace, that God would give me the necessary wisdom for my new field of service. With prayerful attitude I humbly said, "Not my will be done but thine .oh Lord."

Eleven days after the adjournment of the Annual Conference, I called a meeting for all the workers in our District in order to make concrete plans for the year's work. I adopted this motto: "Plan your work and work your plan." The year's program included home visi­tation and evangelization, workers' Institutes, Church Loyalty Days, Quarterly Conferences and Conventions. We had a special meeting

53

for the District Stewards and Domestic Mission Cabinet to consider the budget for the year.

FolloWing the Workers' Conference in April we had a District Epworth League Fair held in Santa Maria. This was led and super­vised by the District Epworth League Cabinet with Mr. N. Arreola~ the able president. Every League was well represented.

In spite of hardships and the financial depression, two of our high-spirited members liberally donated two lots for the erection of good sized chapels. They are Mr. & Mrs. Leoncio Filart of Mambug and Mr. & Mrs. Berto Languey of Galimuyod. The Daily Vacation Bible Schools also were conducted in several places. They were in full swing when Dr. E. S. Lyons our veteran missionary and Rev. H. J. Riley came to visit Ilocos Sur. Then we had a Church Officials' Institute at three different places.

Time changes conditions. Some of our congregations were greatly molested because of the destructive and a.ggresive campaigns of some who withdrew from our Church. Nevertheless, our workers and members continue to be very loyal and true to their Mother Church, that taught them the deeper meanings of protestant Christ­ianity, the great influence of which brought all of us under the saving power of Jesus Christ. Our pastors have stood firmly and unitedly against dissension.

The later part of July Bishop Lee, in company with Dr. B. O. Peterson, Miss Hewson and Miss Atkins came to inspire us in our workers' conference. Bishop Lee with his unusual experience and wise leadership actuated by his brotherly and sympathetic attitude, enlightened the doubts and confusion harbored in some of the work­ers' minds. He reviewed very vividly the history of Methodism. He fully explained the present situation of our church.

We laid emphasis on home visitations. Under the leadership of our pastors and women workers prayer meetings were held in the homes of our members as well as in the homes of those who are friendly toward our church.

Rev. H. J. Riley spent about a week in our district in the interest of the Wesley Foundation. He thrilled his audiences with his fine message, his matchless spiritual insight and his sympathetic under­standing of our needs.

Our Sunday School Convention at Sevilla proved very success­ful. Our young people especially have shown their great interest in the growth of Sunday Schools. A suitable stage built outside the church was the scene of various activities. There was a demonstra­tion of different classes in the children's department.

There were beautiful gifts during Christmas to remind and to renew the spirit of friendship. But the best gift of all and which my wife and I appreciated most deeply was the unusual visit of Miss M. M. Decker and Miss Ines Godoy at our home during the Christ­mas season.

Our interdenominational Young People's Institute was held again at Vigan. Although the attendance was considerably small on ac­count of financial limitations, yet those who attended were the out­standing leaders in their respective communities.

Our District Conference was held in Narvacan on January 9-12. The pastors, deaconesses and the leading laymen of the district came, filling the church to its limit. The Narvacan members gra­ciously and liberally entertained in their homes all the delegates. Rev. Enrique Sobrepefta Secretary of the Philippine Council of Christian Education; Rev. Silvestre Morales and Dr. Palencia of the Disciples; Rev. Vicente Cordero and Mr. Isabelo Pacquing graced the occasion and delivered thought-provoking messages. There were four

54

promIsmg young men who decided to enter the ministry. The cir­cuits were reorganized to include new places for evangelization.

We certainly recognize and apprecia.te the everyday sacrifice and the fine service of our trained deaconesses, faithful Biblewomen and untiring nurses. .

Miss Ruth E. Joyce Atkins came to join our ranks when Miss Helen Wilk went to Manila during the middle of the year. How­ever because of the illness of Miss Atkins' parents she left for the United States after two weeks' stay in Ilocos Sur.

New converts during the year were 122; Adults baptized 145; Children baptized 104; total Church support received P3,807.

MANILA DISTRICT

C. T. SANTOS (Acting)

1 am reporting not as a superintendent; 1 cannot report all events and accomplishments for the entire year that has passed, but only that part in which I served the District, which comprises two periods that 1 shall presently report to you.

Fir8t Period: Due to his physical condition, Rev. Pedro B. Cruz, Superintendent of the District of Manila, asked Bishop Lee for two months' vacation which the latter granted. I received from the Bishop the appointment that I shall be responsible for the Dis­trict under the charge of Superintnedent Pedro B. Cruz.

First trip-My appointment was to commence on the first day of September, and was to last until the end of Oct'Ober. The first province I visited was Zambales. My companion on this trip was Miss Hewson, District worker of the W.F.M.S. On the way we visited Subic, then Miss Hewson and I resumed our travel, and I stopped at San Narciso and returned to Subic, here we met Pastor Navarro of the separating group. From Subic I went around to nearby towns inquiring for the homes that Pastor Navarro visited, besides visiting the homes of our separating brethren. Accompany­ing me was one of the members who had been loyal to the old church. 1 went to them to enlighten them, giving data and facts until midnight.

Second trip-I went to Bataan after one week's stay in Zam­bales. 1 found that the circuits in Bataan were peaceful and active under the guidance of their pastors-in-charge. These congrega­tions were invaded by the leaders of the separating group but they were not disturbed.

I went back to Zambales which was my second trip and on this trip Dr. B. O. Peterson was my companion.

In our visits from town to town we failed to reach the last municipality up North, Santa Cruz, because a flood caused by a bad storm destroyed the bridge approaching the town.

On the third day Dr. Peterson returned to Orani, Bataan and I was left at Iba, Zambales. Dr. Peterson passed through dangers in his trip to Orani because of the wind, rain and flood that des­troyed several bridges. While I, who was left at Iba, faced a dif­ficulty of deciding whether Exequiel Angeles, a separating pastor should keep possession of the pastoral house in Iba.

The two unfriendly factions were left peaceful, with hand­shaking and smiles on their lips, for I had known these people since 1917.

55

In Zambales' there are only two places that divided, namely, Iba, where Pastor Exequiel Angeles, is working and. San Antonio, birth place of Mr. Teo.dQro Yangco. It was God's will that Pastor Exe­quiel left the pastoral house on his own accord and this proble~ was terminated peacefully.

Revival and Evangelistic meetings: All the circuit in the two districts held revival and pvangelistic meetings in the days set aside by their pastors-in-charge within the months of September and Oc­tober. the period of my appointment.

I would like to tell you also that the result of those meetings, according to the reports that I received from some pastors from Bataan and Zambales, they received 368 new members and the highest number came from San Narciso where Rev. Filomeno Ga­lang helped very much.

This period of my appointment terminated in November when Bishop Lee appointed Pastor de Ocera to the Bataan-Zambales District.

Second Period: The second period of my service to the Dis­trict, dated from January 20th, up to the present of this year, 1934; and comprising only Manila District and a part of the provinces of Rizal, Bulacan and Cavite.

It was 8:00 P.M., of the 20th of January when I received a telephone call informing me that Rev. Pedro B. Cruz had died. I went immediately and found Pastor C:r;uz lying in state. Miss Decker, Rev. and Mrs. Riley, Dr. Moore, Miss Walker and pastor Galvez were there. Following my arrival, Dr. and Mrs. Lyons and Mr. and Mrs. Thomas came. Dr. Lyons appointed Pastor Galvez and me to takp. charge of thp. burial, so I requested the corpse be brought to-the funeral parlors.

When the Bishop arrived on the 5th of February, I went to see him and explained everything that had happened. The Bishop de­cide that I continue because we are like soldiers of the army; when one dies another should take his place. In this way I was made Superintendent of the District for the second period.

In this period, I made no trips, held no quarterly conferences, except the one requested by Dr. Moore in the Central Church, which was held on the 13th of January in the evening because we were nearing the work of the institute, district conference, convention of the Domestic Mission and were busy in preparing the statistics and this report which I now have ready for you.

The Circuits: The Manila District is composed of 20 circuits having 31 congregations.

The Meycawayan church and the Santa Ana church, under Pas­tors Reyes and Tuason respectively were painted and the latter is under repair. The Tangos church under Pastor Pascual is being enlarged, though it is already big, and the pastoral house is being reconstructed and painted. The Malabon North Church under Pastor N atanael de Pano through the generosity of Simeon BIas is under construction. It is being built of concrete and in the next month we shall have completed a beautiful church there. The mem­bers are making big preparations to dedicate the church when com­pleted.

Institute, District Conference and Domestic Mission Convention

With the help of Pastor Galvez and Mr. Cirilo Perez, we held in one week the Institute, District Conference and the Convention of the Domestic Mission in Malabon North. I must not forget to

56

mention here our appreciation of the folks who helped us in these special gatherings, namely; Bishop and Mrs. Lee, Dr. and Mrs. Lyons, Rev. Vicente Cordero, Pastor Arcadio de Ocera, Rev. E. K. Higdon, Dr. C. L. Pickett, Dr. C. R. Hamilton, Dr. G. W. Wright, Rev. E. T. Cruz, Atty. Juan Nabong and Atty. Navia, Dr. J. W. Moore, Rev. C. W. Moorman and Miss Marguerite Hewson.

Conclusion and Testimonies: According to the notes that I have from our District Conference, we obtained 577 new members, the largest number having come from Knox and Central Churches.

The pastors with whom I have been working and the other breth­ren in the Conference tell me that they now feel a new experience; that their hearts are on fire to serve and to offer themselves to God, and their love for each other has become very strong.

If there has been any thing commendable I find in my short term of service to the District, that thing is the fruit of the good works and creditable example left by our beloved Pastor Pedro B. Cruz, late superintendent of the Manila District.

In conclusion, my prayer is, may we receive always the bountiful blessing of our God.

SOUTH CAGA Y AN VALLEY DISTRICT

CIRIACO INIS

"If God is for us who can be against us?" This has been the language of our souls throughout the year and the Lord has been very good to us. The separa:tion of some of our brethren has given lots of trouble and confusIOn on the part of the members and people. 'We are glad to report, however, that only very few of our members have been led away so far. The work of the Church is still going -on.

THE DISTRICT: If we look at the map, we will see that the South Cagayan Valley district is the largest in area. Thousands of people are coming into our part of the country every year. Dis­tances between places are long and the means of transportation are still difficult and expensive. We have to go on horseback or by foot to reach many points within the district. These undeveloped places need more care and attention and to give attention, we need more horses for pastors.

SELF-SUPPORT: We are sorry to report here that self-sup­port has been very low. Many of our people are still poor. Some of them are still ignorant of their responsibility for supporting their churches. Our total income for self-suppo,rt this year was P3,533. A very small part of this has bee·n given in the form of cash.

DOMESTIC MISSION: The main purpose of our Domestic Mis­sion is to open new work, but most of what we could collect this year was used to maintain our work in McDew. We could not open new work. There are several new places that are inviting us to come. This year we shall send preachers to two of these places and we are very glad to have men who are not afraid to risk the call. Our total receipts for Domestic Mi~sion work this year was P318.

DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT'S SUPPORT: In the early part of last year, we had Dr. and Mrs. Cottingham to help us push the raising 0.£ funds for this purpose and also for the Domestic Mis­sion. This year we had to do it ourselves. Our collection for the support of the Superintende'nt was P118; very much less than last year.

57

WORKERS: We are glad to have Miss Wilhelmina Erbst with us in Bayombong. She has been busy this year on building. She built her residence and. a beautiful stone chapel which is now being used as a student center. Miss Juana Ganacias our District Nurse was formerly a Red Cross nurse, but refused an offer of much more money in order to give herself to the work of God in our District, for which we are very grateful. Her services are very valuable as our people are in much need of medical attention. We aJso lost two pasta.rs, but we have five new ones. We also lost two deaconesses, but we have three new graduates from the Harris-School and three from the Lingayen School.

INSTITUTES AND REVIVALS: We have had Bible Institutes in Echague, Santiago, Aritao, and Sinamar. In each of these places, classes were conducted at day time and revival meetings in the even­ings. These efforts yielded substantial results. Revival meetings were conducted in almost all points. We divided our workers into several groups in order to help each .olther on the various circuits. Workers found great joy in their work; many of our members were refreshed and revived, and new members were added to the Church. We baptized this year 319 adults and 1537 children; 856 in alL Preach­ers are welcomed every where and especially among the new settlers. This is a challenge to us all.

STUDENT WORK: We have three student centers in our part of the country. We are not reaching the students as much as we ought to in any of these centers, much to our regret. We have a girl's dormitory in Ilagan under Miss Visitacion Arellano, but be­cause it is located far from the High School, we can get very few girls to board. Miss Mappala's dormitory in Bayom.bong is always full to its capacity. We should have a boy's dormitory in this city. The stone chapel put up by Miss Erbst is helpful. It is crowded every Tuesday and Thursday evenings with eager students anxious to learn of the Bible. Brother Donato Pableo now the pastor of Echague Church, taking the place of pastor Vergara, has started a student work there. He has some enthusiastic young peo·ple work­ing with him. Brother Pableo is a graduate of the Silliman Institute and is a very capable church leader.

BUILDINGS AND IMPROVEMENTS: We have not pushed building projects this year on account of the prevailing financial crisis. Some churches, however, have made some improvements. We now have the old house in Bayombong remodeled for Pastor Fara]an and me. We are very much in nee.d of a church building in this place. We are using the basement of our house for a temporary chapel. Echague, Lantap, Lama, Sinmar and Santiago have each made some improvements on their church buildings. The Mabini group built a chapel, but shortly after it was ready for use, a strong wind came and destroyed it. They did not put it up again, but out of the materials, they built a parsonage for their pastor. The mem­bers of Bambang in spite of the split that took place are completing their new and beautiful parsonage which when finished will be the best in the whole province of Nueva Vizcaya. They became enthu­siastic after some of their number left to join the new church. Ba­gabag centro needs a building to house their growing congregation. The brethren have already gathered some strong material to build on the lot bought by the Mission for them. The brethren in Nagui­lian are v.ery anxious to have a chapel and they are willing to build it by rthemselves, but they do not yet have any site. Jones centro will soon put up a building on the lot that we bought for them not long ago. They have some materials already and are going to build it themselves, the only help they are asking is for the roofing.

58

CONFERENCES: Our mid-year conference and inspirational meeting was held in Bayombong at the time when Bishop Lee came to visit us. The meeting with the bishop was surely an inspiration for us all. After he left; we continued our meeting using much time in prayer and consultations. From this meeting, we went back to our respective appointments very much refreshed and with cheerful hearts. Our last District Conference was held in Bambang. We had a delightful time together., The conference was peaceful and about the biggest we ever had in our district. We were fortunate to have some visitors to help us. Rev. Lorenzo Tamayo, Rev. and Mrs. Bollman of the Presbyterian Mission, and the Rileys were among our visitors. The Rileys, of course, were not visitors. Although they have left the Cagayan Valley to live in Manila, they are still our missionaries and we know that their interest in our wnrk is very great.

Lastly, I am very glad to tell you that those that are left with me in the work; pastors, deaconesses, biblewomen and other workers are among the best. We enjoyed our work together and we expect to have this year the best year we have ever had.

CENTRAL DISTRICT

E. T. CRUZ

With a deep sense of humility, and a heart full of reJOIcmg, I am presenting my report to the twenty-seventh session of the Phil­ippine Islands Annual Conference. The workers under my care, ex­cept one, have shown great loyalty to the Church and devotion to duty. In spite of trying circumstances we have every reason to be grateful to God for what we have accomplished, although we did not reach all the goals set for the year.

PLAN OF THE WORK FOR 1933-34. A few days after the Annual Conference in San Nicolas, Pangasinan, I called the pastors and deaconesses to meet and to discuss some important plans to be undertaken in our District. The workers of Nueva Ecija met in Penaranda, Nueva Ecija and the workers of Bulacan, in Malolos. In these confer.ences we talked about the goals for our work in the District and agreed upon the following: 1. To see that each church in the district seek a special baptism of the Holy Spirit. 2. To hold prayer meetings in each hous.e. of the brethren and friends. 3. To hold revival meetings in the churches and other places. 4. To give emphasis on personal work. 5. To endeavor to bring one thousand souls to the feet of the Master this year. 6 To teach the members their responsibility for supporting the church, both materially and spiritually.

EVANGELIZATION. Our goal was one thousand converts, but we regret to say that we did not entirely reach this goal. Rev. Ulpiano de Pano, our able District Evangelist, helped a great deal in different churches. He and the pastors whom he had helped were able to convert many souls. 747 souls were led to Christ.

The most successful work undertaken in Bulacan was through Brother Rosendo Ladignon who won 75 new members. The same success was accomplished in Nueva Ecija through Brothers Gregorio Padolina, Francisco Layug, Clemente M. Zuniga, Ruben Candelaria, Guillermo Manuel and Crisostomo Bartolome. They won 390 new converts.

59

SELF-SUPPORT AND SELF-SACRIFICE. The hard times ::and the lack of the necessities of life are seriously felt in the Central District. Most of our members know their responsibility for sup­porting the Church, but because they are very poor and do not hB:ve much to give, they have unselfishly divided the little they had WIth their preachers. The pastors faced these hardships bravely and patiently. They willingly suffered with their members.

CONVENTIONS, LYCEUMS AND CONFERENCES. From the 1st. to the 18th of August, 1933, we held our Lyceum at Caba­natuan, Nueva Ecija. This was only for the pastors and deaconesses of the District. We had also with us a pastor and a deaconess from the Tarlac District. In this Lyceum we took the Course of Study .as set forth in the Philippine Islands Annual Conference Journal of 1933. When we adjourned we were all convinced that we had the most successful Lyceum ever held in the Central District. We ex­tend our thanks to our Brothers Revs. E. K.. Higdon, W. W. Jeffers, H. W. de Vries, Jose Gamboa, Simeon D. Reyes, B. O. Peterson and -.to Misses Marion Walker and Gladys Black who helped make this Lyceum a great success. We are also grateful to our beloved Bishop Edwin F. Lee in giving us encouragement, happiness and steadfast­ness in the service of the Master by his presence and message at this time.

The revival meetings held every evening conducted by Rev. Ul­j>iano de Pano were a source of blessing to the workers and to the members.

We were happy guests of the Cabanatuan folks for 18 days. There were fifty of us workers, and the kind hospitality extended to ;us was beyond expression. Aside from this kind entertainment, one of the women members of the place gave each deaconess a dress and each pastor a sack of rice. Some pastol's preferred to receive the gift in cash.

The joint convention of the Sunday School, Epworth League and Domestic Mission was held in Quingwa, Bulacan. This convention was attended by about five hundred delegates.

In almost all of the Quarterly Conferences held in the Churches, there were evidences of success. The churches were unusually active in carrying on their work and it has been the burning desire of all to receive the power of the Holy Spirit. The budget of each church was planned out.

Our District Conference was held in Hagonoy, Bulacan. There is no doubt that this conference will long be remembered as it touched the hearts and lives of those who attended it. The reports of the pastor.s and the deaconesses who shared with us in our difficulties and in our happiness, those of the local preachers and exhorters and other officers of the Church, were all full of inspiration. The lectures -of Drs. E. S. Lyons, J. B. Rodgers and C. L. Pickett, Revs. H. J. R.iley and Balbino Gatdula, Atty. Juan Nabong and Mr. and Mrs. ·C. B. Perez, were most inspiring and illuminating.

DOMESTIC MISSION. The work of the Domestic Mission was .seriously affected. The big decrease in the amount received in the District treasury forced us to stop helping the weak churches, except those few receiving very. small amounts. In spite of the poor condi­tion of the Domestic Mission it was able to go on with the work in Basti, Papaya, where there were 64 new members converted to Jesus .and a new work near the places was also begun. It was also able' to purchase a horse for the pastor in Basti. The brethren in Basti who :are being helped by the Domestic Mission wa,nt to enlarge their -ehapel.

CHAPELS AND PARSONAGES. We very much feared that. due to hardship and scarcity of funds, the brethren in the different churches would not be able to repair the broken chapels and parson­ages that required repairs. In spite of their poverty, the people have continued the building of the churches in Guiguinto, Quingwa, San Isidro and Hagonoy, the parsonages in Angat and the District parsonage.

DORMITORY WORK. The two dormitories have continued in serving the young people. The Wesley Hall was very successful un­der the management of Rev. Clemente M. Zuniga, and it was entirely self-supporting. The High School Girl's Dormitory under the able supervision of Mrs. J osefa Diaz was able to go on in its service for young ladies. These dormitories are fountains of spirit­ual blessing and sources of Christian streng.th to their occupants.

A BRIEF SUMMARY OF OUR ACCOMPLISHMENT. New members received during the year-747; Children baptized not in­cluded in the new members received-262; the total support of the Church was P17 ,057 .83.

CONCLUSION. I cannot express in words my appreciation and delight for the many blessings God has bestowed upon the life of each of us in the Central District and also upon the churches given to our charge. Together with my fellow workers we can just say, "Being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness... for the administra­tion of this service, we therefore raise praises and gratit1;lde to our' heavenly Father, saying blessing, and glory, and wisdom and thanks­giving, and honor and power, and might, be unto our God forever and ever. Amen."

NORTH CAGA Y AN V ALLEY DISTRICT

BENITO TovERA

At the beginning of this report we feel like saying with Paul, "But thanks be to God which giveth victory through our Lord Jesus Christ."

We rejoice for the coming of Miss Virginia Hayes to our Dis­trict. Her ability to speak Ilocano and her tact and wisdom have· drawn her close to our constituency. She is willing to cooperate in the general program of work in the District. She and Mrs. Tovera have gone up and down the Valley helping our women to organize themselves for more effective service.

We al'e sorry to note that Miss Atkins left us early during the year. She was sent to Ilocos Sur and from there she went home to the States.

Brother and Mrs. Riley were transferred to Manila. We regret to see them leave the Cagayan Valley which they have come to love. But we rejoice in the thought that by residing in Manila they will wield wider Christian influence for the welfare of Philippine Method­ism.

Weare glad for the timely visit of Bishop Lee to the District. His coming meant a great deal. He came to sow the seed of peace· and good will. He tightened the chords of Christian unity which bound the hearts of his co-workers together. He attested the wisdom of being steady and of remaining faithful to the Methodist Episcopal Church.

It is a yearly event in our District to hold an inspirational meet­ing. Our aim is to sit at the feet of the Master, listen to His still.

61

small voice and learn more of Him. There are two outstanding re­sults of the meeting. First, we caught a new vision of the mission­ary spirit. Plans were made by which we can raise money to sup­port a pastor for Calayan, a big island North of Cagayan, where there is no Protestant work. Already we have P12.40 for this enter­prise. Second, we received a new conception of the meaning of the Cross. We were determined to go into the crowded ways of life even at the point of hunger and death to constrain people to repent of their sins, accept Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour.

Evangelistic services were held in every circuit. Under the parching rays of the summer sun we rode our ponies and to the re­motest barrios and brought the glad tidings of salvation. People who have been grouping in darkness, blind to the beauty' of the spiritual world saw for the first time the rays of the Light. 307 men and women were received into the fellowship of the Church. We have a net gain of 258. We baptized 297 children. The special evangelistic services were held in the different congregations and these faltering souls were vitalized

We have dedicated our chapel at Biduang where Brother Blanco is working with the assistance of Mr. Yabis; the chapel at Paruddun Norte where Brother Mariano Ramos is serving as supply pastor and the chapel at Lapugan where Brother Pastores is stationed.

Our chapel at Rizal has been repaired and a Children's Depart­ment annexed under the leadership of pastor Candido Blaquera with the cooperation of Mr. Pedro Aday, the active President of the local Epworth League. Brother Pedro Tomaneng together with the faith­ful members in Tuao built a new parsonage. Pastors Victor Battung repaired our. chapel at Solana, Pastor Pantaleon Abadu built a Child­ren's Department at Peiia-Blanca. Pastor Gregorio Larida and the brethren at Payagan, Pastor Sergio T. Gonzaga and the brethren at Masical, Pastor Faustino Evangelista and the brethren at Lattu and pastor Godofredo D. Eustaquio and the brethren at San Antonio and San Isidro have been all busy gathering materials for new chapels.

My father, Mariano Tovera and the faithful people in Aparri whose parsonage and church were burned have colllected money and pledges amounting to P1,040 for a new church; Pastor Aniceto U. Jerusalem and the good people at Dugo have, now P80.00 for rebuild­ing their chapel, Pastor Manuel M. Pastores and the brethren at Gat­taran have also about P100;00 for a new chapel at Cabagan, Pastor Valencia and the brethren at Tuguegarao are still campaigning for money for the building of a new ch~rch. Pastor Pedro Arago and the brethren at Annafunan and Linao will soon build a chapel. Plans are under way for a chapel in Piat, the famous 'milagrosa' town in the Cagayan Valley. The Psalmist said, "I was glad when they said unto me, let us go into the house of the Lord." We love to go into these houses of worship. And though it was indeed a very hard year the brethren because of their genuine love for the Lord have been more than glad to contribute what they could for these worthy and noble enterprises.

All the pastors in the District have been sick during the past year. Their wives and some of their children have been sick. We thought in several instances that the time for the silver chord to break had arrived. It did come. The saintly wife of Brother Ma­nuel M. Past ores has gone to be with her Lord forever. In addition we experienced the pang of poverty and of dire need. Even though we have gone through the Via Dolorosa, the road of heartaches; life was made sweet and beautiful because we enjoyed the blessed com­panionship of an intimate fellowship with the Spiritual Comrade.

62

The deaconesses have been working hard. They have been faith­ful in teaching the, words which can make men wise unto salva­tion. During the summer vacation Daily Vacation Bible schools have been held under the leadership of these devoted workers in the dif­ferent strategic places within the District. They work among the young people.

For the first time in the history of our Dormitory work we have been hit by the depression. In both Dormitories we have fourteen boarders.

During the month of October an institute for Primary and Junior teachers in the Sunday School was held at Tuguegarao. Miss Hayes was ably assisted by trained workers. 19 young people came to attend. During the ten days they received various lessons which aided them to become more efficient.

In November we held an institute for our Local Preachers in Peiia-Blanca. Our generous brethren entertained us freely. We spent eight hours daily during a week giving instructions to these brethren, to help equip them to become better workmen in the Church of God.

Mrs. Tovera, the Treasurer of the District Domestic Mission Association, collected from the different churches and loyal support­ers of our work P270.99. This sum helped to meet emergency calls. It is a small amount but we thank God it brought much needed re­lief. Our people, though they felt the painful pinch of the depression, because of their love and devotion to the Cause, gave for ministerial support P2,282.00; for the District Superintendent P91.89; for the deaconesses for board P352.00; for the Disciplinary and Benevolent collections P19.49; for church buildings and repairs PI, 745.00 and for other purposes P397.00, a total of '5,157.37.

The Cagayan Valley Epworth League Institute was held at Tu­guegarao. Eighty-seven young people registered. For three full days these students leal'ned how to play, study and pray together. The most significa,nt action taken during the institute which expressed the general sentiment of those present is that it is a part of prudence to remain faithful and loyal to Jesus Christ within the bounds of the Methodist Episcopal Church. The success of the institute is due to the careful management of our Dean, the Rev. Tomas E. Altamero with the co-operation of all the officers of the Association and in­structors of the institute. We are thankful for the splendid help given by Brother Galvez, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas and Dr. and Mrs. Widdoes.

The Sunday School Convention was held during the District Con­ference. Vital religious problems were presented and discussed. Weare glad to note that an inward urge to know and learn more of the Truth is found among the brethren. They are urgently re­questing us to send them pastors and deaconesses to minister to their spiritual life.

The District Conference was held at Lapugan, Gattaran. About one hundred people from all over the District came to attend the conference. Our hospitable brethren received us royally into their homes and during five days. At the end of the year that has been full of dark mysteries that baffled our faith, by His grace we came out victorious. We rejoice because we have been counted worthy to suffer for His sake. We hope and pray that the coming year will bring more blessings and benedictions into our lives because we shall have been given another blessed privilege of laboring in the vineyard of the Lord and sharing with Him the sufferings and agonies of His soul.

REPORT OF P AMP ANGA DISTRICT

E. M. MANUEL

I am, reluctant to give you at present the report of Pampanga District because I accepted the appointment as Superintendent of said District only the first day of last November. Therefore, my predecessor and senior minister, Rev. Arcadio de Ocera, is to be credited with any constructive results accomplished during the past year. The praise and the glory, of course is God's. We shall surely miss Pastor de Ocera in Pampanga District.

As soon as the new appointment was made I found that my time was limited to holding the last quarterly conferences on the Dis­trict, because there were only a few days left from that day to this Conference. However, I tried to do something more than just hold­ing quarterly conferences. In many cases, along with the confer­ences, I have conducted revival meetings, and closed with the Holy Communion. Still I found difficulties in dividing up my time among the different circuits for I was still holding the pastorate at Mexico, and moreover, I also held the pastorates vacated by those pastors who had left our Church. These places were Guagua, San Vicente and Pulungmasle. I am glad that our members in these circuits stood the test of being deprived of a regular pastor, and instead of becoming oold in their faith they have became more steadfast and loyal than they have ever been before. With Miss Rufina Aquino's constant vigilance, the Pulungmasle circuit was saved from being divided. In Guagua it was largely through the effort of the young people tha~ the congergation became more steadfast. Once more, the loyalty of the congregation at San Vicente, Mexioo, was shown by the fact that although they did not have a regular preacher, they closed their doors to any disturbance. Stotsenburg maintains the same position as usual, solid, intact, inspite of the fact that the preacher there resigned from his post.

The new members received in the different revivals held through­out the District during the year were 320, and Capas with brother Esteban Garcia as Pastor takes the lead by the addition of 115 mem­bers. Conception is second in the highest number of new members received. Brother Isaac Manganti is the Pastor of this circuit. San Fernando is third, and this came about through the cooperative effort of the Rev. Ricardo del Rosario, Miss Marion Walker our W.F.M.S. Missionary, Miss Pac ita Ramos the deaconess and Mr. W. W. Jp.ifp.rs thp. "praying missionary."

There were some District meetings which I will briefly mention. Last April we held the Edna Thomas Hall Daily Vacation Schools Institute under the management of our missionary Miss Marion Walker, and with it was held also the Leadership Training. In a meeting called by Pastor de Ocera, the Pampanga workers were asked to attend. Some of our leading laymen from each circuit at­tended. A chief item of business discussed here was the Five Year Plan. This meeting was particularly helped by the coming of brother Cirilo B. Perez and Attorney Juan Nabong. August 5th is to us especially a blessed day because of the visit of Bishop Edwin F. Lee in Mexico, when workers gathered for conference. During the early days of October we had our Junior League Institute at Bangcal, Guagua. With this Institute we had a spiritually edifying gather­ing not only to those who came to attend, but also to the members of the Bangcal congregation. Then, beginning the 17th day of that month, we had our Preachers' Lyceum in Mexico. The presence of the "praying missionary," Mr. William W. Jeffers helped much. We

64

were complimented by the visit of our senior missionary Dr. E. S. Ly.ons at this time. Later Dr. Lyons came to our first Workers' meeting held November 1st, held at Bamban where brother Constan­cio Mercado is Pastor.

For the first time in the history of our Young People's Insti­tute, we had one dialect group, the Pampangos. This was done be­cause the Central District group decided to divide. They held theirs in Biac-na-bato while ours was at Stotsenburg. Our regis­tered delegates were only seventy. Nevertheless, we felt, in that Institute, the abiding presence of God. We had the privilege, of having with us Miss Leila Dingle, Mrs. Pistole, Mrs. Tomas Mrs. B. Cuyugan, Mrs. Asuncion Perez, Atty. Juan Nabong, Mr. Malonzo of the Tarlac High School, Chaplain August Borleis of Fort Stot­senburg, Dr. B. O. Peterson, and Rev. C. W. Moorman of the Army and Navy Y.M.C.A. One outstanding tangible result of this Insti­tute was that two young men voluntarily and definitely decided to enter the Ministry.

Our District Conference held February 1st at Concepcion, Tar­lac, where brother Isaac Manganti is pastor, and MissPetronila Quizon is Bible woman worker, proved to be another successful meet­ing for the District. The members of the Concepcion circuit were the hosts of this session. Helpful contributions to our program were made by the Rev. Herbert J. Riley, Rev. Arcadio de Ocera. Rev. Ro­man S. Nacu, Cbaplain August Borleis, Attorney Juan Nabong and the Rev. Enrique C. Sobrepefia, General Secretary of the Philippine Council of Christian Education. We were honored by a visit to this Conference of the Rev. Esteban T. Cruz of the Central District, the Rev. Vicente Cordero just returned from the United States, Mr. and Mrs. Jose Simangan of Cagayan, and the Rev. Crispulo M. leban.

The division in our Church hindered not only the progress of evangelization, but affected the financial support. Not that the mem­bers were disheartened in their usual giving, but that circuits vacated by withdrawing pastors stopped giving for the time being with the excuse that they had no pastor to support. Of course the general world crisis reached our shores, but in spite of all financial handi­caps, the workers did not leave their appointments. The total minis­terial support in the District including the help given to the women workers amounts to P4,913.00.

We had few improvements. The San Fernando Church was re­paired to be ready for this Annual Conference. A new church build­ing was completed in San Antonio, Arayat. This building was used as a cockpit before, but the owner Mr. Vital being converted, changed his cockpit into a church. The new parsonage of Capas is in the process of building. A new church building is also planned at Pani­puan. The parsonage at Concepcion is finally completed.

Our missionary work among the Negritos is still going on with the sacrificial labor of our three natjve missionaries, Isidoro Pan­lilio, Felix Sanchez and Quintin Ronquillo. The Rev. Pedro Lusung inspected the work this past year, and he was partially teaching these poor unprivileged Negritos their letters by means of the so­called Laubach System. We regret very much, the news of the death of Mr. Foote who has been supporting this work for many years.

The student work has been carried on by our able W.F.M.S. Missionary, Miss Marion Walker, and she carries this along with her regular work among the women and children of the District at large. Mis.s Pacita Ramos rendered great help to Miss Walker in the student work. In the District work, Misses Valeriana Aquino and Mercedes Alabado together aided Miss Walker in the general oversight of the entire work. Weare glad for the addition of Miss

65

Adam to our number this year, and she served as a very able matron in the Edna Tloomas Memorial Hall, our Dormitory for girls. We also appreciate the help given us by our District nurse, Miss Matilde Abaya.

Finally, we express our gratitude to our Heavenly Father "for His goodness endureth forever~" We thank Him for His help and with Him "the gates of hell shall not prevail" against us and our work. We are looking forward to a continuous triumph over dif­cui ties and .sins.

BATAAN-ZAMBALES DISTRICT ARCADIO DE OCERA

Once more the unfailing love and irresistible power of God have been the invisible forces that guided both Districts, Pampanga and Bataan-Zambales, where I worked during the year. Hence, unto Him, together with my coworkers, we humbly lift our hearts in gratitude and appreciation.

Pampanga District :-My work in Pampanga District was exactly seven months and three days. Most of my time was engaged in churches where the spirit of the "New Movement" flared up. For sometime, I felt discouraged in seeing the confusion, which was suddenly brought into the Church, of which I have been a member for 30 years, and the church which I have been serving for 29 years. But on the other hand I have been much inspired by the heroic faitb and steadfastness of those who remained in the Mother Church. These brethren have faced bravely and squarely all the attacks on our Church.

During this trying period, I found a tireless and indiscourageable supporter and adviser in the person of our Senior Missionary, Dr. E. S. Lyons.

Only two circuits out of the 27 have been greatly molested and about 150 members out of the 18,682 have joined the New Movement. However, in the midst of this confusion, revivals and evangelistic services simultaneously started. These services brought three things: First, a great awakening among those who had previously been indiffprent; spcond, more spiritual vigor and devotion for saving souls; third, about 200 new converts were added to the mem­bership of the church.

Bataan-Zambales:-On the first of November of last year, I was asked to take the superintendency of the Bataan-Zambales District. This was because Rev. Pedro Cruz, the District Superin­tendent was not able to attend to the needs of the District on account of his failing health.

This district comprises two of the provinces of Central Luzon, Bataan and Zambales. The inhabitants of this district speak five Filipino dialects-Tagalog, Pampango, Zambal, Ilocano and Ne­grito. There are 24 circuits in the District, 10 in Bataan and 14 in Zambales.

Spiritually speaking, these two provinces are on the same level. We can find in both provinces many faithful followers of the Man of Galilee, who are rich in Christian experiences. This has been evidenced in the following: Out of the 1,305 members in Bataan, only 3 individuals left the Mother Church. In this pro­vince, there were 72 new members added, hence there is a net gain of 69 followers. In Zambales, out of the 2,432 members of the Mother Church, about 100 persons joined the New Movement.

66

There are 270 new converts gained, therefore, there is a net gain of 170 persons.

Rev. Filomeno Galang has done a great deal to advance God's kingdom, particularly in Zambales. With the help of our effi­cient district deaconess, Miss Juana Cortes, and the other deaconesses, Misses Garcia, Moya and de Leon, plus the unselfish aid of our District Nurse, Miss Lucia Olivar, big pentecostal revival meetings were held. Many were brought to the feet of the Master.

Just four months ago, a Christ-spirited young man, Ismael de la Rosa, presented himself for the ministry. He is now in charge of Abucay circuit. For the past year that place had no resident pastor, it is quite natural that the members grew cold in their spiritual life. When Mr. de la Rosa went there he met an em­barrassment because the members were inclined toward the "New Movement". But he did his best to explain matters. Because of his tact and ability, he was able to gain back his adherents to the M,other Cburch.

I cannot forget the heroic stand of Rev. Laureano Peralta of San Narciso in staying with us in the Mother Church. He faced a great test. He was tempted and offered big financial help in his ministry by the "New Movement". Aside from the P20.00, he would receive from Mr. Yangco; he was promised P40.00 for the support of his son to study in the City. Despite this excellent offer, Rev. Peralta stayed with us for the peace and advancement of the Master's work.

CONVENTIONS OF EPWORTH LEAGUE, DOMESTIC MISSION AND SUNDAY SCHOOL:

Due to the financial demands which the District could not meet, we made arrangements to have these gatherings in two places-at San Narciso, Zambales and at Orion, Bataan. Both conventions were characterized by joy and gracious feHowship on the part of the workers. In Orion, the delegates were inspired by the lectures and sermons, especially by those of Miss Hewson and Rep. For­tunato de Leon of the Bataan province.

My report will be incomplete without mentioning the untiring effort and christian devotion of Miss Hewson, our lady missionary. She is ever ready to cooperate in any project or plan of the dis­trict. She is a true "soldier of the cross" ready to meet any sa­crifice for the cause.

In general, I am happy to report that harmony, cooperation, dev.otion, affection and humility truly prevail among our workers and members on this district.

District CQnjererwe :-Our district conference was held in Olongapo, Zambales, in this month. It is said that this District Conference was the most peace,ful and successful. Everyone tes­tified that he felt the presence of the Holy Spirit.

In this Conference, the future program of the District was planned and agreed upon. The total members of the Conference, both workers and laymen, promised to exert their utmost effort in carrying out this program. This program carries the following objectives: 1. A comprehensive evangelization of the whole Dis­trict. 2. An intensive campaign for ministerial support. 3. A thorough and accurate survey of the resources of each circuit with a view to utilizing these resources for the carrying out of our program there. This plan was started by Rev. Julian Santos in his circuit. This work is very commendable. I believe this kind of undertaking is of great value if it can be followed.

67

I'mprovements :-Owing to the general economic depression, which is felt everywhere, the District could not meet the material demands of churches and parsonages, although many of them need repair and rebuilding. However. due to the effort .of Pastor Jose Cruz of Bagac, a new chapel was dedicated on the 12th of January of this year. P250 was spent for the improvement of the church and parsonage in this place.

Appeal to other Districts :-Realizing the fact that it is hard for most of the precahers of Zamibales to attend our District Con­ference, I made an appeal to the other District Conferences, which I fortunately attended, to extend some benevolent contributions. Three Districts responded in a total of PI9.16. This money was distributed to the pastors of Zambales. Through me, the preachers are expressing their deepest gratitude to the Districts memtioned. Aside from this, Manila District promised to renew its monthly missionary support for the preachers of our District.

Inter-District Institute:-The inter-district institute was held in Lamao, the experimental station of the Bureau of Agriculture in the province of Bataan. The attendance on this institute was large.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS: 1. New members ... 342 2. Adults baptised 73 3. Infants baptised 168 4. Total support of the Church was P4.661

Personal G'ratitude :-1 find it hard to end this report without acquainting the Gonference with the Pampanga District manifesta­tions of love and honor to me. My heart overflows with profound appreciation and heartfelt gratitude for all the splendind occasions given in my honor and for all the beautiful gifts given me. The personal gifts afford me no less pleasure to mention. This beautiful "barong tagalog" I now WEar, and a fine buntal hat are presents from the Candaba circuit. The San Fernando circuit gave me a silk suit. and my brother gave me a linen suit; and the beautiful gold watch just given me which is the most valuable and prized of all.

These tokens of love from Pampanga will forever be cherished and treasured in my heart.

I must close this humble report with genuine appreciation and gratitude for the many blessings that have come to my life this year. I am reassured of the loving kindness of God and of the fruitfulness of the C'hristian ministry. I bear testimony to the fact "the lions may lack, but those who ,trust in the Lord will want no good thing." I thank God, for all, who have been held faithful in this great task.

REPORT OF THE P ANGASINAN DISTRICT

ALEJANDRO VIDAL

First of all, I will not forget to give my thanksgiving to Al­mighty God to whom we are indebted for many things that we can not count, as mercy, goodness and triumph, so I am here again be­fore you to-day to give a short account of our work in the District of Pangisanan.

Institute8 and Revivals. The Bible Institutes we~e held in three different places, Agno, Bugallon and San Roque, San Manuel. These

68

institutes were attended by 140 persons,-Exhorters, Local Preachers and women workers. The Inter-District Evangelistic Institute was held in the Bible Training School in Lingayen in the months of May and June. There were 65 women workers from different towns' and provinces attended. The Junior League Institute wa.s held in the town of Binalonan in the month of October and all the Deaconesses Bible Women and a few Pastors of Pangasinan District attended: the total attendance being 57. The credit is due to Miss Leila. V. Dingle, the District Missionary, because of her courage to direct the women workers to service and sacrifice to the Lord. The Epworth League Institute was again in the Methodist Episcopal Church in Lingayen. Though the Christian Endeavor of La Union Province did not join in this institute this year, there were 107 delegates who at­tended. All enJoyed the institute because of the fine sprit of fellow­ship. I will not forget to mention here my thankfulness to Dr. Peter­son because of his patience and help to me in conducting the Epworth League Institute.

The revival meetings were hel.d in nine places, Agno, Bugallon, Dagupan, San Fabian, Mangaldan, Villanueva, Bautista, Anda-Sia­par, San Roque, San Manuel and Binalonan. As the fruits of these revivals 151 persons were converted, accepting Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour and becoming members of our churches this year.

Conve1l<tion and Con/e1"ence. In spite of many troubles, disturb­ances and trials in the district, the convention of the Sunday School Association in Anda was full of life and attended by 128 delegates. The District Conference and the Domestic Mission convention were held in Dagupan and had 180 delegates. That Conference recom­mended four candidates to be received on trial by the Annual Con­ference; seven candidates to be trained as deaconesses and thirteen to be trained as Bible Women; two as Nurses; twenty-one as new Local Preachers and eighty-one as new Exhorters.

Construction and Imp1·ovements. There was one chapel erected and one chapel rebuilt this year in Calasiao, the one in the barrio of Bued and the other in the town. The chapel in the town has half concrete wall in front and is only partly roofed with iron, because of financial lack. Strong materials are being used, and the total expenses of these two chapels was P513.00. The churches in Rosales, San Nicolas, Mangaldan, Anda, Laba,yog and Bani parsonage were improved at the total expense of P1,446.

The Mary Brown Townsend Memorial Training School. The Mary Brown Townsend Memorial Training School in Lingayen had again a very ha,ppy and successful year, and the success is due to the industrious and full-of-patience principal, Miss Mildred M. Blakely and her faithful and diligent faculty members.

In this school there are 47 girls studying. They came from seven districts: Tarlac, North Cagay,an, South Cagayan, Central, Pampanga, Ilocos Sur and Pangasinan. Eighteen girls v/ill be grad­uated this year, and seven of them are from Pangasinan. After graduation, they are very willing to go any where for service. Ala­minos, Pozorrubio, Tayug, San Nicolas and Dasol are waiting for them.

Girls' Dormitory. The hardest thing to manage is the dormi­tory. Some dormitories stopped, because of the financial depression, but our dormitories at Lingayen and Bayambang continue to serve the ,students in those two places. The resourcefulness and patience of the manager in charge, Miss Isabel Garcia in Lingayen, and her assistant manager, Miss Susana Torio in Bayambang, have been the basis of the success of this two dormitories.

69

Student .centers at Lingayen and Bayambang. According to the information of Pastor Ayson the work among the students in Linga­gen is progressing. Miss Gladys Black is working hard and har­moniously with her pastor and other workers in Lingayen, as are Ju.an Manuel, Isabel Garcia, DQrotea Beltran and others. Our work is Bayambang which was neglected for a year because of no support was opened again by Pastor Alberto Bravo. I hope he will stay in Bayambang this year if we can help him for his support.

Self Support and Membership. The self support collected for all the Pastors, Deaconesses, Bible Women and District Superintendent in. the year 1933 was P5,785 with the decrease of Pl,119. Support was badly hurt by "split," and it is the problem of the District now. Nevertheless, the hardship of support will not hinder the pro­gress of our work. There are nine Local preachers aspiring for pastorship. They like 00 ha,ve circuits this year. The total of the children and adults baptized during the year was 590 with the in­crease of 219 over last year. And the new members received during thp ypar was 587.

THE PHILIPPINE OBSERVER

The General Conference subsidy, upon the basis of which the con­tinuation of the Philippine Observer since the last General Confer­ence has been justified, has been received only in part and we face the serious difficulty of indebtedness without means in sight to pay unless the Book Concern in the United States makes up the balance of the remittance which was assured us in the appropriation made by the last General Conference. Perhaps conditions of unrest in the Methodist Church here contributed to the difficulty of enlisting co­operation in the matter of cultivation and distribution. In my edi­orial capacity I found myself wholly unable to cope with this prob­lem. I have the gratification, however, to report that in recent months there has been a positive expression of enthusiasm and very definite cooperation on the part of a number of the leading minis­ters and laymen in our Conference.

I wish particularly to cite in this connection Rev. Francisco S. Galvez, Rev. Benjamin Guansing, Atty. Juan Nabong, Mr. Conrado Uy and Rev. Herbert J. Riley. These brethren have met together on several occasions and have seriously grappled with the problems of the Philippine Observer. They have submitted and secured vigorous and timely articles for pUblication in its columns. They have secured subscriptions. They halve demonstrated through their awakened interest and enthusiastic endeavor that the Philippine Ob­server can be made to succeed in a way which it has never before succeeded. It is in order to bear tribute to the printing department of the Methodist Publishing House, especially to Brother Paul E. Thomas, Superintendent of Printing, whose specialized skill has been enhanced by his unreserved interest and enthusiasm, and whose ser­vices in printing the Philippine Observer month by month have been indispensable. We believe that the Philippine Observer has an en­during place as a part of our work. It is in its 31st year of publica­tion.

CONFERENCE TREASURER'S REPORT

B. O. PETERSON

The same influences that have tended to lessen self-support, have even more discouraged attention to and ability for raising funds toward benevolent causes. One district which has been much affected by the confusion begun at the Annual Conference a year ago, turned in no benevolences, whatever.

There are two items in the report which need some explanation, those for Retired local preachers and for Domestic Missions. In our Conference there are more local preachers acting as supplies than there are members of the Annual Conference. When a local preacher has served faithfully and well through a long period of year's it is no more than right that some provision be made for his needs after retirement. Regular Conference Claimants funds can not be applied toward his needs. The Annual Conference has therefore taken de­finite action that the "birthday" offerings be applied toward the rais­ing up of a productive fund the interest of which shall minister in some mea,sure toward the needs of retired local preachers.

Each district has its own Domestic Missions organization which raises funds toward the support of pastors on weak circuts. These organizations are given much attention. Without the work of the District Domestic Missions organizations, very much of the evange­listic program would suffer. The funds raised for district needs are not included in this report.

MISSION TREASURER'S REPORT

E. S. LYONS

I t will be remembered that I was not on the field until the 1st of April. and that Dr. Peterson who kindly acted for me in my ab­sence continued to keep the Treasury until the 1st day of May.

Report of Monies Expended During the Year 1933

1. For Recurring Items: A. Budget Items: (1) The Board's grant for Budget Items in

1933 was P10,325.50; (2) There was incurred an overdraft in various work accounts listed, and for legal expenses, interest, etc., P3,917.63.

The total Budget expenditure for recurring work items in 1933 was P14,243.13.

Some extra expenditures were necessary because of some changes in Districts, extra District travel required, extra support made neces­sary by the change of appointments and other needed expenditures of like nature.

B. Special Expenditures: There were during the year also certain special expenditures outside the budget items, made as follows: (1) Payments made to pastors on account of sickness, death, and because of changes of appointments and conditions, the sum of P1,297.30; (2) Emergency travel in the interest of converting the work, and to inform the people, made necessary because of disturbed conditions; legal expense, printing, conferences, cables, etc., a total sum of P1,146.96; (3) On account of extra registration expenses to take up certificates ready to be issued and because of advance surveys being undertaken to hasten the registration of certain valuable church prop­erties, P1,239.55; (4) There were expended from the Dormitory Trust Fund thirty-eight scholarships, each in the amount of P30.00 to P50.00, making a total of P1,.490.00. (5) From the retired and super­ann~ated preachers' allowances from the income of a fund that has been built' up through grants from the Book Concern in America, and from special collections among the Churches in the United States, and sent out as necessitous relief, the sum of P1,752.00.

These items aggregate the sum of P6,925.81. The total expenditure of these special recurring items plus the

Budget items for 1933 is P21,168.94. To this we must add the overdraft on account of the 1932 Budget

items, not yet provided for, the sum of P8,226.85, and which sum we have paid, making a grand total paid in 1933 by the Mission on account of such items of P29,395.79.

II. Non-Recurring Items: Under the head of non-recurring items, we have expended the

following sums: (1) For the repair of the Knox Church ~36.00, this being the balance of P1,462.00 already expended, and formerly set aside for the repairs of the Knox Church in the distribution of the San Juan Funds. (2) The treasury has also expended in 1933 on account of repairs of various provincial churches and chapels in nine different places, the total of P1,7'22.20, these funds being provided for in the distribution of funds from the sales of San Juan, and the payments held up until the state of the treasury would permit their expenditure. (3) There was also expended the sum of P369.69 in the purchase of a new Church site in San Miguel, Bulacan, one that can be found without the aid of the town police. (4) A further expendit­ure of P100.00 was made for a much needed parsonage site in San Nicolas, Pangasinan.

73

These Non-Recurring items paid in 1933, make a total of P2,227.89.

III. Sales of Property and Payment of Debts: In the completion of the St. Paul's Church in Tondo, and of

Central Students Church there have appeared a considerable number of claims bearing interest, which in the interest of good business, should promptly be retired to prevent the accumulation of interest on the accounts. We have therefore recommended to the Board of Foreign Missions that permission be granted to sell the Knox Com­munity House site, and that the income from the sale be devoted as follows: (1) To the raising of the Lope de Vega House about one meter and the immediate completion of a suitable space for Primary and Sunday School rooms there should be appropriated funds to meet a probable cost of P3,000.00. This expenditure is to be made at once. That the balance of the income from the sale, together with the insurance money collected for the burned building, should be im­mediately assigned to the retirement of interest .bearing claims above referred to. The Board has agreed to the sale and to the provision of the Sunday School room for the Knox Church. (2) They have also agreed to the retirement of a loan made' in Singapore, for the pur­poses of completing the Tondo Church together with the interest on this claim, and the same has been paid in the amount of P9,457.22. (3) Approval has also been given for the retirement of certain obliga­tions incurred for improvements made in 1931 on Rader Hall and for the purchase of an automobile for Mr. Eddy when he was on the field. These two claims and interest thereon amount to P3,956.08. This amount has also been paid. (4) We are asking also for per­mission to pay from this fund another contingent claim standing against the Tondo Church, and that is a claim due Mr. M. Kraut in the sum of P2,500 and interest from 1928, contracted by the Official Board of St. Paul's Church, and which claim has been in default for four years or more. Since windows were provided for the Central Students Church, we have recommended that out of the property sales we shall provide for the windows of the Tondo Church. Mr. M. Kraut will take P2,000.00 in settlement of this claim. (5) There is another unpaid claim due the Architect for the building of the Central Student Church amounting to P1,5150.00. Since the Architect has given us a most beautiful structure and in so doing has rendered a noteworthy service, I believe this claim should not stand unpaid any longer. Mr. Arellano has agreed to take P1,300.00 and we are pay­ing the same. (6) There is also a claim of Mr. John Gordon, the contractor for extras on the Central Student Church, and which he admits were not in this contract, but which extras were ordered by the pastor in charge at the time of the building, who promised he would personally see that payment therefor would be made. It is obvious that this claim should not be allowed to stand unpaid. The amount is P1,095.11, and Mr. Gordon will take 1'953.14. We are pay­ing this account.

The total payments of Non-Recurring Items for this Conference Year is P20,666.44.

IV. Unpaid Claims Still to be Adjusted: (1) There is an unpaid claim of P6,000.00, which represents money borrowed by the Official Board of the Central Student Church from the Williams Fund though the Board of Foreign Missions to aid the congregation temporarily in completing their pledge for the new Church building. We recom­mend this claim also be paid from the sale of property. since the congregation is finding it most difficult to meet their payments

74

of running expenses, and for the cost of the organ which has been installed; (2) There is a balance due from the Central Student Church congregation to the Mission of 114,.0.0.0.00, being the balance over the Williams Loan on the promise of P1.o,.o.o.o made by the congregation of Central Student Church to aid the building fund, and which amount the Mission has advanced. (3) There is another claim due the Mis­sion of P23,.o.o.o . .o.o, an amount advanced by the Mission in order to complete the construction of the Central Student Church building, and which amount the Board of Foreign Missions has promised to provide, but up to the present time they have not given us any light on how the claim shall be met. (4) For the Central Students Church pipe organ 112,2.0.0 had already been advanced. When the organ arrived in March, 1933, to save the above deposit the Mission was called upon to pay the balance of the cost amounting to P3,462.37. This organ obligation however, is to be repaid by the congregation of the Central Students Church. (5) There is now a further claim against the Tondo parsonage and the accesorias where the Church parsonage is standing in the sum of P13,867 . .o.o plus Pl,l.o.o . .o.o in­terest, making a total of P14,967 . .o.o or approximately P15,.o.o.o . .o.o. This claim was incurred on account of the money borrowed for the purposes of making possible the purchase of the new Church site of the St. Paul's Church. The owner would not sell the present St. Paul's Church site unless the lot where the parsonage is located and the five accesorias, was also included in the purchase. The obligation bears interest at 7%, and it is necessary that we allot the income from the accesorias to meet the interest and taxes in order that we shall be able to carry the mortgage obligation for the presen.t.

From the above statement it will a>ppear that the total Mission obligations to be adjusted on this field is P44,.oOO . .o.o.

V. The amounts due the Mission: (1) From the Board P23,.o.o.o . .o.o, the amount advanced to complete the construction of the Central Student Church. (2) From the congregation of the Central Student Church on promise by the Official Board of the Central Student Church P1O,.o.o.o . .o.o. (3) From Cen.tral Student Church on account of money advanced for the pipe organ on its arrival in the Philippines P3,4.o.o . .o.o.

These items totaJ the sum of 1136,4.0.0, all of which amount has been advanced from trust funds or credits standing on the books, and which must be replaced together with any interest that may be due thereon.

It is the purpose of the local Treasury with the consent of the Board of Foreign Missions, to provide for the needed sum of P15,.o.o.o dup. on the Tondo Church at an p.arly date so as to enable the con­gregation of that Church to have the use of the accesorias along­side of the Church for their Sunday School purposes, and also to stop the regular interest charge on the funds so due. ,

While the Philippine Observer has been maintained at a uni­formally high standard, the subscription list has steadily fallen so, that at this time it numbers 299, of which 15 are exchanged for other pUblications and 43 are complimentary subscriptions. The full grant of the General Conference has not yet been paid, and there is some doubt as to whether it will be paid, since the retired preachers over the country, and other church obligations supported by the collec­tions from the church are not being met. On January 31st there was an overdraft in this Observer account of P1,978 . .o.o due the Pub­lishing House, and no adequate prospects of conditions materially improving. We are of the opinion that it is not good business to continue the publication of this paper for the present. We therefore

75

reluctantly recommend that its publication shall cease with the April issue.

Since the death of Mr. Edward H. Foote, word has come that he has made some provision in his will for the contiuance of the Negrito work, but when this money shall be available and how much shall be available we cannot say. We are reducing the allowance of the men in charge of the N egrito work to P15.00 a month and after this session of the Annual Conference it may be reduced to P10.00 or entirely cut off for the present.

As Chairman of a special committee raised for the purpose of estimating what the Board may try to do as a Mission on this field for the next five years, it is recommended that the Board shall not undertake a fixed program for longer than three years. This pro­posal is found in a statement sent by this special committee to the different District Conferences for their consideration, that the whole question might come back and be before the Annual Conference at this session.

You will note that the proposal will carry the Conference through the next General Conference year, leaving the Philippine Annual Conference to plan its future up to and including the General Con­ference year.

Whether it will undertake to stand alone from other churches for a time in the futurp.. or will unitp. with thosp. of other denomina­tions in the formation of an indigenous Church~ is a matter which the Coniference members may later determine. But in any event, the Missi9n should undertake to support financially what it believes is at least the minimum help in order to enable the Methodist Epis­copal Church in the Philippines to work out its future destiny.

The outside help in the proposed "Five-Year-Plan" previously set up was largely based on individual support and special gifts, both of which are not dependable in these days of changing conditions. We have therefore recommended that the minimum help of the Board for each of the next three years including 1934 should be approxim­ately P15,000, P8,500 of which shall be provided from property sales on the field. We believe that there are saleable properties enough to cover this, and that the total amount designated or P15,000 is the minimum aid on which the present program of the Church can con­tinue to function under present conditions.

There may be savings on the side of the claims required to be paid from property sources, and by all means there must be increased help and support on the part of the work budget through the supple­mental aid received from the churches of the Conference.

It is clear that if there is to be a real indigenous Church, the local chm'ches cannot depend on p'lilanthropic aid but must syste­matically and diligently strive to carry out the plan adopted lest the whole program shall miserably fail.

We do not know what the Board will do with this proposal, but we confidently hope that they will approve any reasonable plan which may be offered by those who best know the field and its fundamental needs.

METHODIST PUBLISHING HOUSE

E. S. LYONS, Agent

While this report covers twelve months, that is to December 1st, 1933, our relation with the business did not actually begin until the 1st of M.ay. Prior to that time Dr. B. O. Peterson, had faithfully and Vf~ry satisfactory directed the Publishing House affairs while I was on furlough.

The actual business in the printing and binding departments of the Publishing House is slightly less than in the previous year, there being approximately P2,OOO less religious printing, and about the same increase in commercial printing, due I think to the contract for the printing of the "Cabletow" a pUblication of the Grand Lodge of the Philippines, and which printing came to us late in the year. It is interesting that the overhead expenses which include salaries and wages were approximately P2,OOO less in 1933 than in the previous year. While the loss in the printing department was approxixmately P1.500 less than the previous year, the loss in the book store was pro­portionately very much more than that in the printing department.

The question before us, is how long we can afford to continue this business under the present state of affairs '!

Hard times have driven the missionaries to the position where they feel compelled to get everything they use at the lowest possible price, and in the face of their great need of funds, some of them seem unwilling to pay the actual cost of the' supplies they. need.

Some printing which formerly came to us in Manila, is now being sent to provinces where department regulations regarding labor do not obtain, and where cheap labor may be secured. In the mean­time several agencies to which we are contributing Mission funds regularly, have now set up their own purchasing and distributing agencies for the books and material which they need for carrying on their work. For example the National Christian Council for the last two or three years has been regularly receiving and publishing books and pamphlets t and distributing them among the churches. The Phil­ippine Council of Religious Education has been also receiving and distributing different sorts of books and pamphlets in its program among the people. The Union Theological Seminary in which we are partners and have been regular supporters for years has lately been ordering and selling its own books to the students for the various courses taught therein.

In the meantime the book and the publishing and printing busi­ness is suffering the keenest sort of competition in the city of Ma­nila.

From careful observation and inquiry it is evident that in the interest of a proper program of Christian literature for the use of the rapidly developing churches, it is necessary that a union program shall be undertaken, one that is largely subsidized to meet the grow­ing needs of the churches. Or else if the Publishing House book and printing business is to live, it must be turned over to a skilled and capable manager, who will enter actively in the field of business competition with the other producing agencies of the city, though this latter course will be out of harm<my with our original plan in building up the institution for service among the people.

It is therefore recommended that we shall continue our printing and book store business for another year, with the understanding that within the Conference year, we shall fully determine the matter of leasing or selling our printing establishment, and of greatly re­ducing our book store stock, thus enabling us to set aside the rents of the building and the income from the leasehold, to be divided one

77

half for literature, and one half for the retirement fund of the full members of the Annual Conference, thus carrying out the plan that llas been previously agreed upon in the Conference and confirmed by the action of the Board of Foreign Missions.

In this report we wish specially to mention the faithful and ef­ticient services of Mr. Paul E. Thomas, who as Superintendent of the Printing Department must have credit for much of its success that has been gained. Mr. Thomas has also given very considerable per­sonal attention to the business of the store since the retirement of Miss Gladys Hillard in the month of September last year.

We wish also to acknowledge with gratitude the unselfish and very helpful services of Mrs. Thomas, who has generally spent her mornings in the book department, since Miss Hillard's departure. In advertising, keeping up the stock, and in the routine business, Mrs. Thomas has been specially helpful.

Miss Gladys Hillard who was with the store for the past three years left for the States last September, because of the decreased business of the store. During the period she was with the Publish­ing House, Miss Hillard made many friends among the people. In the management of the store she rendered valuable service in build­ing up the sale of good books, and in supplying the public and the churches with the most helpful kind of religious literature.

One marked achievement of the Publishing House for the year was the publishing of the Tagalog Hymnal with notes, a Union song book issued by the National Christian Council. There was advanced about a thousand pesos to this project before it became a Union one, and then, to hasten the translation of the selected hymns, the Pub­lishing House advanced P2.00 for each hymn translated. Through this offer more than three hundred hymns were translated in a single year; thus the Methodist Publishing House had about P1,400 in this project, when the book was tin ally published, over the share con­tributed by the Mission for the publishing of the book.

We have printed the Philippine Observer, the Conference Min­utes for the two Mission departments of our work, and during the month of July there came to us the "Cabletow," a monthly paper of the Grand Lodge of the Philippine Islands, Free and Accepted Masons, that has wide circulation in the Philippines.

We wish to acknowledge with gratitude the faithful services of the printers and employees in the two departments of the Publsh­ing House, and particularly the services of Dr. B. O. Peterson who took charge of the Publishing House during my absence. We know that without the faithful employees of the institution no business of any sort, much less in a business conducted for religious purposes, can have any marked degree of success.

When the time has come for the disposition of the business of the Methodist Publishing House, we shall be glad to dispose of it, but one part of the business must be safeguarded and that is the income of the building in the interest of our much needed literature program, and particularly that of the retired preachers' fund, for without this fund there is little hope of any income for the retired preachers of the. Conference, who have faithfully served the Church during the pioneer days of its existence.

A PROTEST OF THE DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENTS

Manila, P. I. February 17, 1934

We the nine Filipino District Superintendents of the Philippine Islands Annual Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, in a session of the Cabinet with Bishop Lee presiding, and being in close touch with the congregations in our respective districts, and acquainted particularly, with the condition of affairs in the com­munities where divisions have taken place and where, pastors and members have seceded to the new church movement, we have to say that both in such communities and throughout the Conference there is much confusion and controversy among the members and others because of the use by the seceding group of the name "The Methodist Episcopal Church of the Philippine Islands, Inc." It is our firm conviction that if this group amends the name so taken by simply prefixing the word "new" to said name, such amended name will not sufficiently distinguish and qualify the name adopted so as to avoid confusion and trouble over the public services of the church, its membership and property rights, but rather that such a change will tend to produce and promote more confusion and trouble than does the name they have already registered.

We therefore enter a vigorous protest against the proposed amendment, and urge that this group be required to attach other and more distinguishing and qualifying words to the words Methodist Church, and also to leave off of said name so distinguished, the words "of the Philippine Islands", which words form a part of the exact name in which the titles .of many of the properties of the Methodist Episcopal Church have been registered in the courts.

It is moved by Arcadio de Ocera and seconded by Alejandro Vidal that the above statement be adopted as expressing the judg­ment of the Cabinet assembled.

SELF SUPPORT AND BENEVOLENCES Thus far through the depression our pastors have continued

faithfully on their circuits. Many have done so, however, under great deprivation. Although there has been the desire to maintain full self support in principle, in practice there is much room for improvement. Some pastors have been forced to seek in agriculture and other ways the means for support to the extent that their Woork .of preaching and visiting has suffered. No pastor can fulfil his obligations to his congregation if he does not have time to give proper attention to the preparation of his sermons and to the visiting of his members and others. On the other hand the con­gregati,on that properly supports its pastor, in so -doing provides itself with better and more efficient spiritual attention.

The pastor is the servant of the congregation. The servant is worthy of his hire. Withheld or unpaid support is unfair, unwise and unchristian. It is therefore recognized that 1. Self-support is inherently a duty and obligation in the main­

tenance of an indigenous church. 2. All giving toward self-support should be done in a spirit of love. 3. All members and friends should be given the opportunity to co­

operate toward making self-support sufficient for the support of the local needs and for the benevolences.

Furthermore it is recommended that each pastor train lay readers to give information and to lead discussions before the can· gregation on the subject of self-support.

2. That the pastor acquaint himself with the sources of informa­tion on progressive methods in gardening and farming.

8. That the pastor hold open forums of the members and others for discussion of improved means and methods for improving the economic conditions of the people.

4. That the pastor instruct his members and others to save the seeds from the va'rious vegetables and fruit produced in garden and farm or purchased in the market place.

5. That the pastor act as a collecting and distributing agency for making it possible for the people to raise in the gardens and on the farms a greater variety of healthful articles of food. Assisting the people in these practical ways will react very fav.orably for the spiritual pr.ogram as well as for the self-support plans of the church.

6. That the pastor warn his people and others against making bad contracts and fr()m paying usurious rates of interest on loans.

Let us however, be ever watchful that our interest in the ec.onomic development, important as it is, does not take our time and efforts so as to forget that spiritual development in the lives of the ministers and members is second to no other interest in the

'affairs of the church. It is further recommended that the local church adopt and

carefully follow the budget system for local and benevolent pur­poses and t.o strictly follow that system in planning the every member canvass, in making c.ollections and in expending same to the purposes contained in the budget.

BENEVOLENCES Taking the needs of the future into. consideration it is urged

that careful attention be given to the study of the various items contained in the benevolent program of our church. Some provision has been made by outside agencies for the support of retired

84

preachers. This item needs more conscientious attention from in­side agencies, -the district superintendents and pastors.

Conference action in former years took action that all birthday offerings be devoted to the building up of a permanent fund whose income will be used for the support of retired Local Preachers. This Annual Conference herewith re-confirms that action.

B. O. PETERSON For the Committee.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON STATE OF THE CHURCH During the past year our church -has undergone a serious testing

experience. Many good men have been shaken in their loyalties and confused in their choices. The fundamentals of the message and the soundness of the methods of our Church have undergone a thorough re-examination. Out of it all there has grown a broader and higher conception of the integrity and good character of our ministers, missionaries, lay leaders and members of our church.

The actual records of the year's work reveals that we have an actual gain of 3564 more in our membership than reported last year, and we now have a stronger front and more loyal cooperative spirit than our Annual Conference has enjoyed for years.

We regret the secession and separation from our number those whom we had learned to love through many years of close association. We pray that they may be led of the Holy Spirit in paths of worthy service and gracious fellowship in the Kingdom of Christ.

It is with deep regret that we witness the recent introduction of the sweepstakes lottery into our Philippine life. The ultimate results can not be anything but demoralizing to the rank and file of our citizenry. The temptation to take chance& does not need such encouragement to secure something for nothing. We urge our leaders both men and women, to use every intelligent means possible to warn our members and others to take no part in lottery and other gambling devices.

The social evil does not need the added impetus of cabarets and dance halls. The alleged benefits in exercise and gracefulness of ordinary dancing in social home groups has been greatly exag­gerated while the dangers to morals have not decreased. We urge our young people and especially our leaders in young people's work, to avoid thp. dancp. as :1_ social accomplishment and to substitute in­tellectual forms of social entertainment.

The teaching of Christian morality has its rightful place in the home. Negative tendencies in human nature may be curved and cont~oned in the children by proper instruction by both father and mother if begun and continued from the earliest days of childhood inquisitiveness. We urge our pastors and deaconesses and other leaders to impress upon parents through proper channels of infor­mation, the need f.o'r vigilant and wise attention to the moral nur­ture of their sons and daughters.

We still believe that family worship should be given greatly' enlarged attention in the home .. Instead of considering family wor­ship as something to be rushed through, abbreviated or disregarded entirely, it should be made the chief part of ~he day's program in home life. If wisely conducted family worshIp may always be made interesting and inspiring. The danger of delinquiencies in both parents and children may be very largely eliminated through the means of grace in family worship.

FINDING OF THE WOMAN'S CONFERENCE ON "WHAT CAN THE CHURCH DO TO HELP OUR WOMEN IN

THEIR NEW RIGHTS OF FRANCHISE?"

1. Arouse in the minds of our women the sense of their obliga­tion to their country to help to have and preserve a clean and righteous government.

2. Implant in the minds of the people that only men who have clear vision of the needs of the people; men who are of good character and of high moral ideals advocating justice, honesty and industry; men who value the interest and welfare of the country and of the people above their own, should hold official positions.

3. Teach the people to choose leaders who have the conviction and courage to fight for the eradication of cabarets, the white­slave traffic, cockfighting, lotteries gambling and other forms of social evils. '

4. Lead the women to desire to know the current events of the day dealing with the problems of the people and of the nation; making reasonable efforts to keep informed of the international problems.

5. Create a desire in our women to express themselves by prac­tical demonstration of their civic rights and responsibilities.

6. Let the women workers and capable laywomen of our church take aggressive steps in educating women of our church by means of the Laubach system.

7~ Encourage churches through the Epworth Leagues to have constructive discussions, speeches and oratorical contests on "The Women's Right of Franchise", "Getting our Women Ready for 1935" and "Clean Government."

Let it be recorded that the Woman's Conference of the' Method­ist Episcopal Church of the Philippine Islands expresses its great appreciation of the enlightening message of Mrs. Pilar H. Lim a.nd also of the helpful presence of Mrs. Cirilo B. Perez.

REPORT OF THE COMMISSION ON EVANGELISM

FRANCISCO S. GALVEZ

Your Commission on Evangelism met and the following are its recommendations;

1. That the pastors, deaconesses, Bible women, and other church leaders work to urge and help our church people to observe family worship in every christian home having as its features individual and group prayers, individual and group devotional Bible reading, hymn singing, and other devotional exercises.

2. That prayer circles be formed in the churches with the following objectives: (1) To deepen the spiritual life of the church; (2) To stimulate an evangelistic spirit among the members; (3) And to start a genuine spiritual revival.

3. That spiritual retreats be held as often as possible for groups of workers and leading laymen for the appropriation of the limitless spiritual resources and for the discovery of fresh spiritual realities.

4. That evangelistic institutes be held in each district at least once a year to study the objectives, the methods, and the evangelistic

86

message that will meet the present day problems in the light of the present situation.

5. That Gospel Teams composed of the most earnest, deeply spiritual, and evangelistic men and women be ol'ganized in local churches the leaders of which should be the members of the district Gospel Teams. They are the ones to carryon a unified program of evangelisation. It is suggested that if possible the district evan­gelistics, if there are any, be the leaders of the district team.

6. That prayer campaigns and aggressive revival meetings be earnestly and vigorously conducted, specially in the month of March, but evangelistic work should be stressed in season and out of season.

7. That every member be engaged in personal evangelism; and utilize all church organizations as agencies for evangelism.

REPORT OF DISTRICT MISSIONARY OF THE CAGAYAN VALLEY

From April until September it was our privilege to devote our entire time to the work of our churches in the Cagayan Valley. Mrs. Riley experienced great joy in helping the pastor and members of the Tuguegarao Church to get a good start in what has proven to be ,one of the best years in the history of that church. During these months it was possible for me to visit the majority of the congregations in both the North and South Districts.

Usually when I visit the churches and congregations I am accompanied by one or the other of the District Superintendents. and, together with the local pastor, we first of all spend time in calling upon the members and friends of the church in their homes. In making these pastoral calls we would seek to get per­son~lly acquainted with our people, we would converse with them about the work of the church, talk with them about their spiritual and moral needs, sing a hymn or two, have a scripture reading, and then end our visits with a season of prayer. At the close of our calls we invite the people to come to the church for a special preach­ing and inspirational service. At the conclusion of the worship service there is held either a quarterly conference or a general dis­cussion of the church work. This is the usual program we follow as we trave'l among our churches and people in the great Cagayan Valley and it proves to be most profitable for all concerned.

After having had this personal touch with our people and churches during the first part of the year we were much inspired and encouraged by the unusually large congregations that greeted us every where we went, by the wonderful fellowship we enjoyed with our pastors and members, and by seeing in the lives of our people an abundant evidence of the Divine love and the transform­ing and saving power of Jesus Christ.

In September it seemed practicable to our Bishop to change our residence. from Tuguegarao to Manila. This was done that we might be more centrally located in order to cooperate throughout our entire conference in the interests of our student and young people's work. While I have been helping and visiting our several districts and student centers, Mrs. Riley has been happily engaged in doing pastoral calling and otherwise helping the pastor and people of the Central Student Church.

Even though it has been necessary for our residence to be in Manila and for us to serve our church and people outside of the Cagayan Valley. it is nevertheless true that we have never ceased

87

to feel that our Cagayan people and work were our first respon­sibility and very close to our hearts and lives.

Nothing gives us a greater thrill than to look forward to a continuation of this responsibility and relationship. We expect to follow the instructions of Bishop Lee which are that we visit the churches and people of the Cagayan Valley at least once every three months.

HERBERT J. RILEY. I)

REPORT OF WESLEY FOUNDATION. COMMITTEE

As Chairman of the Wesley Foundation Committe it has been our privilege the past year to cooperate with the members of this committee, the District Superintendents, Pastors and other church workers throughout the Conference in our work among students and young people.

Early in the year the members of this committee met and dis­tributed what funds were available in the Mission Treasury for student work. Due to the greatly reduced income of our church people in the United States we can no longer expect very large gifts for our Wesley Foundation Work. However, it is the sincere and determined purpose of the chairman of this committee to make every effort possible this coming year to secure special gif.ts from friends both in the United States and the Philippines to help us in this very important department of our church program. It is also true that local economic conditions are such that the majority of our people cannot afford to place their young people in student dormitories. In spite of the economic problems and other factors in our student situation which have been discouraging during the year, our student program has gone forward steadily and with real success.

The decrease in financial help from the churches in the United States and from local resources has resulted in our being compelled to rely almost entirely upon the leadership and support of the local churches for our student program. This we believe is proving to be a real blessing in disguise for the reason that our work among students as well as other classes and' age groups should be centered in the local church and be a definite part of the total church program ... In talking with many pastors and other church workers in our field, I have learned that it is the general opinion that our student program should become more directly related to the program and life of the local churches. It is believed that as a result of follow­ing this policy we shall have more effective and lasting results in winning students and young people into a vital, personal religious ~xperience and into an active relationship to the church.

After having visited all of our student centers this year, I feel that special mention should be made of the unusual success gained in work among students in Bayombong under the leadership of Miss Mappala and Miss Erbst; in Lingayen, under Miss Garcia and Miss Black; and in San Fernando, Pampanga, under Miss Walker and her able assistants. Weare all hoping to give more time and more thorough attention to our student work this coming year.

We should like further to report that while we have been visiting our churches and dormitories this year in. the interests of our student program we have also given our earnest cooperation and encouragement to the general young people's work. The members of the various regional c,ommittees in charge of young people's

88

work have shown an unusual enthusiasm and activity in gIvmg guidance and help to our young people in the local churches, in district activities, and in Institutes. It was our privilege to co­operate with sp.vp.ral of thesp. committep.s in thp. planning of the Christmas Young People's Institutes. As a result -of the fine co­operation and enthusiastic efforts of those interested in our youth, there were over 500 young people present and participating in the six Institutes that were held in our Methodist territory. The suc­cess of these Institutes should be measured not only in terms of the splendid attendance and enthusiasm but also by the fine fellow­ship, the earnestness of purpose, and the very definite spiritual results obtained. Bishop Edwin F. Lee contributed much toward the success of the Christmas Institutes this year by giving six beautiful pulpit Bibles which were awarded to the local Epworth League Chapters having the best delegation at each of the Insti­tutes.

We have all been much encouraged with the success that our churches have had this year in their program for the students and young people of our Philippines but we shall hope and pray and work for much greater success in the year that is ahead of us.

LEGAL REPORT

E. S. LYONS

HERBERT J. RILEY.

Though the year for me has been but nine months, I have been able to stir up a number of sleeping cases for registration of Church properties and materially advance a number of other pending cases.

During this same period there have been many special legal de­mands made on mp. about all manner of things, but morp. especially about the use and possession of our Church and parsonage properties.

1. During this period Original or Transfer Certificates of Title have been received for fourteen different properties in six different provinces.

2. Certifica.tes of registration are now due for fourteen dif­ferent properties in eight different provinces.

3. There are now pending in the courts twenty different peti­tions for the registration of that many properties located in nine different provinces where the Methodist Episcopal Church is at work.

4. Hearings were had during the year in thirteen different cases in nine different provinces.

15. Surveys have been ordered for the registration of twenty­three defferent properties scattered in eight different provinces.

6. Church properties are to be segregated from individual hold­ings in six different instances in three different provinces.

7. Relocations of Church and parsonage sites were made in four different places, as follows:

(1) After many years of effort we have succeeded in relocating the church in San Miguel de Mayumo, Bulacan. The new site at the beginning of the "cut off" on the left hand side of the road as one leaves the town for Gapan. The site contains 900 square meters. There are 25,000 square meters of good rice land belonging to the San Miguel congregation, and which if sold together with the old church site will furnish sufficient funds to rebuild the chapel and parsonage on the new site.

89

(2) We have also secured an additional piece of land in San Nicolas, Pangasinan, which furnishes us an adequate site for the parsonage of that city, a need which was long standing.

(3) We are endeavoring to work out a new location for our Church in Castillejos, and have a proposition now pending for an exchange of lots with the school authorities, that will give us a larger and more satisfactory location for the Church in that place.

(4) We believe we have succeeded in recovering our Sibul Springs chapel site from the government through a recent act of the Legislature, giving us the privilege of reopening the case that registered the lot as public land. The hearing has been had and the evidence put in showing our ownership and possession from 1905 until the present time. We confidently expect a decision.

8. Parkes Estate. In relation to the Parkes Estate I now report that on our way

to the Philippines, we stopped in England and visited Birmingham, Smitwick and other places north of London where Miss Parkes had relatives, and after diligent search I was able to locate twenty­four persons who have a legal claim on her estate. After confer­ences . with various individuals who represented the heirs, we came to a settlement which will leave for the memorial at Bacolor about P1,000.

The court here subsequently approved the plan, and a distribu­tion has been made in accordance therewith. Weare now waiting to hear if the heirs will accept the money sent, and thus close the estate as approved first by the heirs and then by the court.

9. Bagumbayan Case. The seceding group is still holding a number of churches and

chaple sites, for some of which we hold Torrens titles, and for the others we hold common deeds. On March the 21st we shall enter upon the trial of the case involving the property at Bagumbayan, NaV'Otas, Rizal, and which hearing is to be a test case that will settle the ownership of our Church properties that are now being adversely held.

10. Restraining Orders. In addition to the above matters, we have had a considerable

amount of special litigation, such as securing restraining orders from the courts to prevent interference with surveys, in Binmaley and Tayug in the province of Pangasinan; in Bagumbayan, Navotas. There is opposition to a survey in Taytay, province of Rizal, and also in Pandan, Ilocos Sur.

11. Pampanga Cases. We have had two trials for possession only, of properties wrong­

fully withheld by seceding pastors in Pampanga, one at Sexmoan and one at Bangcal. We have also been obligated to defend a charge for oral defamation brought against Dr. B. O. Peterson by one of the former pastors of Pangasinan District, and this case has required a considerable time in the preparation of the facts and the law bearing upon the case. This case was finally dismissed without trial.

12. Memoranda filed. We have also assisted in the preparation of seven different do­

cuments or memoranda filed with the Bureau of Justice and the Department of Priests and Ministers, and with the Bureau of Com­merce, these documents being on the question of the legality of the incorporation filed by the seceding group in which they registered the name of the Methodist Episcopal Church of the Philippine Is­lands, a name long used and in which we have taken a very con­siderable number of the titles of our properties, for the express

90

purpose of avoiding the criticism that our Church properties here in the Philippine Islands were being taken and held by the Methodist Episcopal Church of America. Under the plan followed, we have thus placed our properties beyond the jurisdiction of the Methodist Episcopal Church of America.

13. During the period since my return to the Philippine Islands, I have frequently been called upon by pastors and members to give opinions concerning the use and possession of our (!hurch properties, and to assist in the recovering of the possession of a very consider­able number of properties which for a time were unlawfully withheld from regular use by those who had seceded from our group. Through the efforts of the pastors and members we have recovered possession of such properties without litigation in eight different centers.

14. The policy agreed upon has been not to begin litigation which would bring us into direct conflict with the people, for we feel that in instances where the people have gone out, they did not know the facts and havp bepn wrong-fully lpd away by those who likewise did not realize the full significance of the steps they were directing, and that when the properties now wrongfully with­held are recovered, the people will return to the Church.

15. As far as the law goes there is no question as to the right of the Conference Trustees to recover the possession and control of the Church sites now held by seceding groups. including the im­provements made thereon, which prior to March 27th, 1933, were being used by the Methodist Episcopal Church in its program among the people.

We believe that the experience through which the Church is passing will help both pastors and people to realize the value of the work of the Methodist Episcopal Church among the people, and to appreciate something of the sacrifice and service rendered both by the givers of the Mission money and the missionary personnel, that has, so generously contributed to help make the Methodist Episcopal Church a living spiritual force in the Philippine Islands.

o

UNIOX THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY

At the beginning of the school year I found that I was res­ponsible for teaching 14 hours weekly in the Union Theological Sem­inary, holding classes in New Testament History, . The Life and Teachings of Jesus, The Social Message of the Prophets and ,Jesus, J ohannine Literature and Introductory Logic. Of these, two courses were new and had to be prepared entirely as the teaching pl·oceeded. This volume of teaching constituted pretty nearly a full time task in itself, a.nd under the circumstances had to be done without ade­quate preparation and supervision.

The work at the Seminary has progressed this year in a gratify­ing manner with a higher standard of scholarship and ~tudent achievements than I have witnessed before. The financial depression has served as a sifting factor and generally the students who have survived in the Seminary have been those of the best caliber and spiritual strength. These young people constitute a stable element of loyal Christian character in the student body and a gratifying proportion of them have taken places in leadership both in scholar­ship and student activities.

Mrs. Moore has carried on her teaching work in the Union Theological Seminary conducting classes in Hymnology and the ministry of music and directing the choral singing groups.

91

Dr. Charles R. Hamilton who, after serving since the departure of Dr. Ryan in the capacity of acting president, 'has recently been elected president following the receipt of Dr. Ryan's resignation. Dr. Hamilton has directed the work of the Seminary in a splendid way, receiving the cooperation of the faculty and the loyal admira­tion and devotion of the student body. It is a joy to have fellowship with the able missionaries of the other denominations and the locally employed instructors who make up the faculty. This united effort is serving not merely to prepare a selected group of young people for religious vocations in our churches, but is doing much to estab­lish bonds of Christian fraternity among an the ev4ngelical deno­minations in the Philippine Islands. Our Methodist support :~or the Seminary 'should be continued through our financial participation to the full extent of our proportionate share; through our participation in the teaching program; through maintena.nce of missionary per­sonnel in the faculty; through our recruiting of promising young Christian people to make up its student body of volunteers :Cor Christian service, and through our regularly representing the cause of the Seminary in our churches and taking offerings for its support. While it is granted that for the time being the support of the Se­minary cannot fall directly upon our churches at large, it is re­cognized by those who anticipate the future development of our church work that the Union Theological Seminary should receive an increasing amount of our local support until such a time as it shall be supported from funds raised from our own churches in the fields.

CENTRAL STUDENT CHURCH

A separate report of the work of the Central Student Church is in order inasmuch as this outstanding part of our work has under­gone so extraordinary a transition in the past conference year. Fol­lowing my appointment as minister of this Church at the last Annual Conference all but a handful of the members of this church, in­cluding practically all of the members of the Official Board, with­drew from the church and undertook to establish an independent movement which was calculated to absorb the entire constituency as well as the actua.! membership. On Sunday, April 3, 1933 this group of people conducted a highly spectacular public walk-out. Of the large congregation assembled on that day about 60 persons remained to participate in the worship service which I had announced would be held. Of these a number were members of our churches in other parts of the city who had heard of the proposed walk-out and who had come to lend the support of their presence to our effort to hold the church together. After the secession, upon surveying the situation, it appeared that 41 persons were left who were actual members of the Central Student Church. From these an Official Board was organized and the regular work of the church was car­ried on.

It is in order to state that those who led in the walk-out re,.. moved from the Central Student Church all membership lists and all other records which would give information as to the member­ship and constituency of the church. They also removed a large share of the movable property of the said church, of estimated value in excess of P2,000. Furthermore, they took with them all funds at that time in the church treasury, and from these funds repaid, or ordered to -be repaid, to the various donors an amount in excess

92

of P1,200 which money had been contributed to the church building fund. Furthermore the church was found to be in debt f,or water and electricity for a period of more than five months. There was also a debt to the Methodist Publishing House in excess of P460 for printing, which debt had been accumulated over a period of many months without any payment having been made, and a number of other unpaid accounts.

Another burden of considerable significance was that a pipe organ had been ordered from Europe, which arrived just prior to our taking charge of the church, and which was left in the hands of the customs authorities carrying charges of approximately P4,ODO. These charges had to be paid before the organ could be delivered. Our new Official Board assumed the obligation for this amount, arranged for a loan covering it, and accepted delivery of the new pipe organ. We then faced the nece.ssity of having it erected in the church, the cost of which turned out to be in excess of P1,200. The very unusual problem in connection with the receipt and instal­lation of the new pipe organ, added to the difficult and delicate task of reviving and building up the congregati,on of the Central Student Church, made our work in this appointment exceedingly difficult, but also very absorbing.

Services have been held at Central Church regularly each Sun­day since then. The Cburch school and the Epworth League have been maintained and increased. It was evident from the beginning of the year that there were many people who delighted to attend the Central Student Church, and a growing congregation has been the result of our year's work. Fr,om the beginning there were usually a hundred or more, and now the weekly average is approx­imate:ly 250. On nine occasions we have had the church filled with great crowds of people who have corne for certain exceptional meet­ings which it has been our privilege to conduct during the past year.

A notable program of public concerts was inaugurated with the dedication of the pipe organ on August 20. Following the ex­traordinarily fine program which was given on this occasion we have been able to present what has been known as the Community Concert Series, consisting of five concerts held once each month beginning in September ending in January. The plan of this con­cert series was to provide the constituency of our church and the city of Manila the best available music free of any admission charge. It was recognized that the beautiful new edifice of Central Student Church together with its splendid pipe organ afforded a particularly suitable place for such concerts. Furthermore, the idea was con­ceived by the committee of the Community Concert Series that such an enterprise would commend the approval and loyal support of the music lovers of the community. Following out this idea a cam­paign was instituted to gain patronage of the public with the result that ove:r P1800 was raised for the organ fund. This fund was made up of the pled~es of the members of our church, by the gifts of patrons, the offerings taken at the concerts and contributions from such other sources as weddings, radio broadcasts and so forth. Out of this income we have been able' to discharge all costs for the instal­lation of the pipe organ and have paid P200 additional indebtedness. All expenses of the Community Concert Series were borne and charges for electricity and certain other incidental expenses of the church have been paid. It has been demonstrated that thru such a musical program the interest of the community can be directed to the work of the church and great gatherings of friendly people can be brought within its doors and into the presence of God under the inspiration of rich music.

93

In this connection it is appropriate to mention the regular ministry of music as conducted in the church by Mrs. Moore with the able assistance of Mrs. Thomas and the Senior and Junior: choirs consisting of more than seventy singers. These choirs have been organized anew and disciplined in the participation in the worship services of the church in such a way as to make our public worship at Central Student Church dignified, beautiful and inspiring.

Evangelistic Endeavor. Such an endeavor in the line of music w,ould be meaningless,

however, apart from the evangelistic program and purpose of the church. Owing to the other heavy responsibilities which I bore it was not possible for me to maintain the preaching ministry alone in this church. At the advice of both Bishop Lee and Bishop Welch I called upon the PUlpit Supply Committee to arrange a definite program of guest preaching in which a considerable number of the ministers of the community, both Americans and Filipinos have participated. Special mention of gratitude is owing Rev. E. K. Higdon for his cordial cooperation as pulpit minister of the church, in which .capacity he has served once or twice a month throughout the year. Bishop Lee has been twice in the pulpit and recently we have had the privilege of the presence on three occasions of Dr. Toyohiko Kagawa and on one occasion Dr. Y. Y. Tsu, the latter being Secretary of the National Christian Council of China.

The significant preaching ministry of the Central Student Church was brought to a climax in a series of week-end evangelistic services in which the Rev. G. W. Moorman, Dr. C. L. Pickett. Rev. Enrique C. Sobrepeiia, Rev. Vicente S. Cordero and Rev. H. J. Riley cooperated. As a result of the year's work brought to a special emphasis in these evangelistic services we have received into the membership of the church 82 persons on confession of faith and by transfer of membership. There is a spirit of enthusiasm and joy in this church and an evidence of healthy and vigorous coop­eration. If arrangements can be made next year for more effective pastoral supervision there is no reason to doubt that the church will move on to a substantially increased membership and be an exalted and conspicuous Christian center in the great capital city of our Philippines.

CONFERENCE BOARD OF MINISTERIAL TRAINING

The Board of Ministerial Training faced very serious difficulties in the present year's work,. due to the fact of the extreme poverty of our undergraduates and the total lack of funds with which the Board might proceed in any adequate program of ministerial training. It was only in November of the present year that the subsidy sought by Bishop Lee and Dr. Ryan on our behalf was made available, whereupon effort was begun to gather together supplies of books and distribute them among the undergraduates. The problem of this selection and the distribution of these books was further complicated by several circumstances. In the first place, it has been agreed by the Board of Ministerial Training that the course of study effective in the quadrenniam prior to the last Annual Conference should be maintained until the present AnnuaJ Conference because of there being a considerable number of the books of this course in circula­tion among the ministers of our church and therefore available for

94

their use in preparation for the examinations. It was recognized, however, that the new course of study should be put into effect to the extent in which books could be provided for the use of the undergr,aduates. Thus, we have undertaken to teach two courses overlapping each other. This has resulted in inevitable confusion. Furthermore the ranks of the Board of Ministerial Training were substantially thinned as a result of the withdrawal of certain mem­bers of our conference and the work of instruction had to be re­assigned, placing greater burdens upon the members remaining. The heavy burdens under which all of us were laboring made it impossible for us effectively to carry out the full program as comprehended in the Discipline and set forth in our journal. On the other hand it is gratifying to report that every undergraduate has been provid~d with several books in which task Brother H. J. Riley has rendered great aid.

Preceding this conference a pastors' institute has been held which 23 of the 25 undergraduates have attended and 9 members of the Board of Ministerial Training have participated. This institute be­gan on Wednesday, February 14 with practically complete attend­ance of the classes. The organization was quickly and efficiently effected and the work begun without confusion or foss of time. It continued through February 20 on which day examinations were held. There has been throughout the institute on the part of both students and faculty a most commendable spirit of industry, eagerness and serious devotion. There has been a deep undercurrent of spirituality with quick and positive response in daily devotional service and in the practical and lively forum discussions held by the whole school. An interesting innovation in this school has been the voluntary attend­ance of 13 candidates for admission on trial, joining the classes in Discipline and for whom were organized special classes preparing them for the examinations for entrance on trial.

The work of the institute has been facilitated and made pleas­ant 'by the fine hospitality and competent entertainment of the local committee under the direction of Brother Ricardo del Rosario and Sister Mercedes Alabado, together with their staff of assistants made up largely from members of the San Fernando congregation. We have occupied the spacious dormitory building where the brethren have had sleeping' qua;rters, class rooms and assembly hall. We have gone thrice daily to the basement of the district parsonage where our meals have been served to the whole institute body at one long table surrounding the room. Some of the members of the institute have participated in the special evangelistic services being con­ducted in the San Fernando Church, but for the greater part institute work has been in order and there has been study morning, noon and night with intense sessions of class instructions throughout.

A memorable feature of the pastors' institute program was the Sunday pilgrimage from the sea,t of the institute 72 kilometers from Manila made possible by the benevolence of the Pampanga Bus Transportation Company. Colonel Andres at our request graciously donated the service of one of his company's large buses transporting the entire student body of our institute to Manila where they were enabled to hear in two memorable services at Central Student Church Dr. Y. Y. Tsu, chairman of the National Christian Council of China and Dr. Toyohiko Kagawa.

Institute forums were devoted to the free discussions of per­tinent problems of the work of our church and ministry. There were no special addresses, but questions were raised and discussed spontaneously by the undergraduates and members of the Board in a most informal way. Among the subjects discussed were the problem

95

of dealing with such schismatic movements as the Iglesia ni Cristo under the administration of Felix Manalo, the Christian message as it should be presented to youth in the Philippine Islands, counsel­ling our parishioners in matters of domestic relations and marriage adjustment, dealing with doctrinal perplexities, etc.

One significant result of the present institute and our experience in conducting it has been the reorganization of the Board of Minis­terial Training in such a manner as to enable us to provide all of the undergraduates with textbooks from the beginning of the year, and the beginning of a definite program of supervision on the part of the members of the -Board of the work being done by these under­graduates. It is definitely anticipated that if assistance can be gained from the Board of Education through Dr. McRossie for next year we shall .hold the institute, not at the time of the Annual Con­ference, but in the middle of the year when the work may be con­tinued over a period of 12, or 15 days, preferably in the Union Theo­logical Seminary in Manila. There is not doubt in our minds as to the essential nature of this work and we are resolved to build upon the highly creditable achievement of the present year.

RADER HALL DORMITORY

E. S. LYONS

As Director of the Rader Hall Dormitory of" Manila, I beg leave to report that the Hall has had a year of continued usefulness; that during the year we have had from thirty to fifty residents in the Dormitory, and from these resident students, we have received P6.00 a month for the privileges furnished. Weare pleased to report that but few: of these occupants have failed to pay the small amount for their residence in the building.

During the year Rev. Prudencio Tuazon has very ably assisted me in making the collections. We have also had the helpful services of Mr. D. C. Castro, in such matters as the discipline and social life of the students who have resided in the building. Mr. Jacinto de Guzman has looked after the eare of the grounds, and Mr. Beltezezar de Pano has rendered part time service in connection with the care of the property, and the collection of the fees.

Weare convinced that our present plan of running the dor­mitory is the right one, and that we cannot profitably maintain a boarding department in the face of the keen competition of the Manila boarding houses on the one hand, and the small resources of the student body on the other.

We think that, without doubt, some fraternity or club plan if adopted, in which the management and general upkeep of the place could be better maintained by the residents themselves, will furnish an advantageous future for the Rader Hall, project. During the year we shall give consideration to some such plan, and if possible bring a recommendation at the close of the year.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON DOMESTIC MISSIONS

Inasmuch as we are looking forward to the organization of a strong, progressive indiginous Church, your committee most urgently recommends the following for your consideration.

96

1. That there be printed in different dialects the adopted constitu­tion of the Domestic Missionary Society, and when put in the several dialects, they shall be distributed so that all of our members and friends may be informed as to the object and purpose of this religious society, and that the constitution should also be printed in our journal.

These constitutions so printed shall be sold to cover the cost of printing.

2. That we urge our Bishop to appoint a Corresponding Sec­retary for the Domestic Missionary Society of the Annual Conference.

3. That 2% of all the money coming into the Domestic Mission­ary Fund of the District shall be turned into the Domestic Mission Board for missionary purposes only.

E. T. CRUZ, for the Committee.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF STEWARDS

Your committee has to report to this conference that an amount of P1,716.00 is all that has been made available for our conference claimants for this Conference year 1934-1935. This is P58.00 less than what we had for this same purpose and period last year. Our claimants have not only increased in number but also in need. We now have dependent upon our pension fund not only widows and their children but also 12 orphans of both father and mother, who are left almost without care. This makes our obligations much bigger and more delicate. It is our earnest prayer that our claimants be given more liberal consideration. Therefore, let us also all pray that the Almighty may hasten the day when our claimants' needs may be sufficiently provided for.

Your committee therefore, humbly submits to you the following meager portions allotted to the cla-imants for the Conference Year of 1934-1935:

Per month Per Year Rev. Severino Cordero ....... . .... . P18.00 P216.00 Rev. Paulino Danan ...... . ......... . 5.00 60.00 Manalastas Children . . .. . .. 12.00 144.00 Rev.

The above apportionments total P143.00 per month or exactly P1, 71~.00, which does not leave anything for the expenses of remit­ting these pensions to the claimants mentioned.

RESOLUTIONS

THIS, the twenty-seventh session of the Philippine Islands An­nual Conference is distinguished and memorable as one of the most significantly successful conferences in the history of Philippine Methodism. The evidences of victory have been abundantly manifest in the reports of the year's labors, and even more in the attitude of indomitable faith and courage which characterizes our fellow workers.

It is our glad privilege to acknowledge the many benefits con­ferred upon us as a conference by those of our number who have specially helped to bring the present session to such a splendid issue. To these beloved friends and brethren we herewith express our sin­cere and abiding gratitude.

Our Bishop, Edwin F. Lee and his wife, Mrs. Edna Dorman Lee have most graciously borne the high responsibility of leadership in our midst, showing with fairness, wisdom and strength the added graces of courtesy, sympathy and joyous love for all of us. Their messages delivered during the course of the conference have been exalted and inspiring. We most heartily record our loving apprecia­tion of their godly counsel, able service and unstinted devotion, and renew with them our covenant of loyal support and willing coopera­tion.

Our good brethren and friends of the San Fernando and Mexico Churches and communities have given lavishly of their best hospital­ity and efficient management, sparing no pains that the visiting re­presentatives might be comfortably cared for. Their cordiality, courtesy and good will are matched only by their industry and sacri­fice.· Without their cooperation the Conference could not have been. Brother Eusebio Manuel, District Superintendent, and Brother Ri­cardo del :Rosario, Pastor of the San Fernando Church have been the official hosts of the Conference. Miss Mercedes Alabado, Mrs. Euse­bio Manuel, Miss Valeriana Aquino, Miss Magdalena Capulong, Mr. Baltazar Cuyugan, Miss Rufina Aquino and Miss Pacita Ramos have managed the dining hall, assisted by a large staff of willing fellow­workers. Miss Marion Walker and Brother Herbert J. Riley have cooperated largely with the entertainment committee. The cordiality of the reception given by the entire community of San Fernando was enhanced by the liberal provision by Col. H. R. Andreas of the Pampanga Bus Company of one of their finest large motor buses to transport the members of the P,astors' Institute to Manila and back on Sunday, enabling them to hear Dr. Y. Y. T'su and Dr. Toyohiko Kagawa.

The program of this Conference has been singularly enriched by the presence and messages of a number of distinguished fraternal visitors. Sincere appreciation and gratitude are hereby expressed for the contributions of Dr. James B. Rodgers, Rev. E. K. Higdon, Dean Jorge Bocobo, Rev. Enrique C. Sobrepefia, Rev. Matias Cuadra, Dr. Charles R. Hamilton, Rev. E. S. Turner, Dr. Toyohiko Kagawa, and others who have brought greetings from other Christian groups. The participation of the laymen has been a commendable, stimula.t­ing and encouraging experience for ~ll of us. The special program of ,the Women's Conference was made unusually interesting by the addresses of Mrs. Pilar H. Lim and Mrs. Asuncion A. Perez, and the discussions which ensued.

The past year has afforded us occasions to pause and contem­plate our proximity to the bounds of life. The hand of death has stayed two of our members in their labors, and we mourn their de­parture as untimely, not comprehending the higher ways of God.

98

Two faithful wives of ministers have also joined the angel host. We unite in tendering our deepest sympathy to the widows and families of Pedro B. Cruz and Mariano Raguindin, to Brother Manuel Pas­tores and to the orphaned Manalastas children.

Weare mindful of the many difficulties, privations, sufferings and trials, both physical and spiritual, which have abounded in the year that has passed. But we are resolved above all things "to press on, if so be that we may lay hold on that for which also we were laid hold on by Christ Jesus," "f.or we are persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor' t·hings present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separat€ us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

o

JOSEPH W. MOORE, Chairman of the Committee.

RESOL UTION TO SIMEON BLAS

On motion of E. S. Lyons and seconded -by Esteban T. Cruz, a resolution of appreciation was unanimously adopted by the Annual Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church held in Mexico, Pam­panga, on the day of February 26, 1934, as follows:

Few men in the Philippines if any have been privileged to give such continued and effective service in the preaching of the gospel among Filipino people, as has the Rev. Simeon BIas of Malabon North, Rizal province.

Since 1906 Mr. BIas has preached continuously through the years in the towns and barrios of Bataan and Rizal provinces, in many of which places. he has rendered regular services as a pastor. In later years Mr. BIas has appeared frequently in conferences, conventions and churches, preaching and making address€s in his unselfish efforts to build the church and to' share his Christian experience with others about him. In all his labors Mr. BIas has not asked for nor re­ceived any salary or support for the services he has so freely ren­dered. He 'also has frequently made gifts and contributions for the purchase of church sites, and for the building of churches and par­sonages in the Methodist area around Manila.

Mr. BIas has just personally undertaken the reconstruction of the church in Malabon North; for this important service, his gen­erous contributions to the cause of righteousness and for his unselfish services as a preacher of the Gospel, Mr. BIas will long be remem­bered by the pastors and by the people who have been the recipients of his generous assistance.

o

RESOLUTION PERTAINING TO THE GIFT OF MR. AND MRS. C. C. MEADER

The new Central Student Church building in Manila was com­pleted and dedicated in July 1932. This building which cost about P150,000 is the result of planning going back twenty years. Funds for the valuable site and for the building of this church were raised from various sources throughout this period of time. The splendid

99

gift of Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Meader, Long Beach, California, in the amount of $25,000 (P50,000) made possible the completion of this Church building project. It appears that this Conference has not, to the present date, made any record of the genuine appreciation in which we hold the generous gift of Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Meader. Therefore, by unanimous vote of the Philippine Islands Annual Con­ference in its twenty-seventh session at San Fernando, Pampanga on February 26, 1934, it was ordered that this resolution of thanks and appreciation be spread upon the official minutes and that copies of this resolution be sent to Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Mea~r, and also to Bishop Charles Bayard Mitchell and to Rev. D. H. Klinefelter who assisted in drawing their interest to this significant participation.

x. MISCELLANEOUS PLAN OF CONFERENCE EXAMINATIONS

(For Traveling Preachers and Accepted Supply Pastors 1932 Discipline, Paragraph 202)

The Course of Study as set forth in the Discipline of 1932, Paragraph 202 shall be effective in the Philippine Islands Annual Conference, with certain exceptions as follows:

(a) In view of the difficulty of securing text-books for certain subjects, substitutions will be accepted, subject in each case to the written approval of the particular Instructor and the chairman of the Board of Ministerial Training.

(b) The Discipline provides that Annual Conferences outside of the United States of America shall fix their own· standards and re­quirements for admission (1932 Discipline, Paragraph 199, section 3), but this does not indicate that such Annual Conferences shall have the power to modify the Conference Course of Study as prescribed by the Discipline. (Paragraph 199, section 4) Two subjects have been introduced into the Philippines Course of Study because of their special application to Philippine conditions. They are "Re­ligious Education in the Philippines" (Ryan) and "Social Problems in the Philippines" (Macaraig.)

Undergraduates in the Conference Course of Study who desire to offer substitute credits should formulate written requests covering their desire and present them in advance to the Chairman of the Conference Board of Ministerial Training.

Special attention is directed to the disciplinary requirements concerning Credits and Exemptions (Paragraph 200) to the effect that "Credits from schools shall be accepted only on the basis of certificates issued by the schools .in question, stating the time when the course was taken and the standing attained, the latter to be not Jess than 70 on the scale of 100."

Communications should be addressed to the Registrar. Rev. Vi­cente S. Cordero. 594 San Luis Street, Manila.
