                   _____________________Psalm 121:1,2_

 I lift

up my 

 eyes 

to the 

  hills, 

 from 

where

is my help to come? My help comes from the Lord. the maker of

of heaven and earth.

 * Walter Rauschenbusch, 1918 

 and Washington Gladden, 1918,

pastors and part 
of the Social Gospel 

movement of the late 

19th century which tied

 together salvation and 

good works  -  that 

Christians 

should 

walk the 

walk, not 

just talk 

 the talk.

 And 

Jacob Riis, 1914,

photojournalist and author 

of How The Other Half 

Lives which in today’s 

America would have to 

be entitled How The 

Other 7/8 Lives.  and we pray  

that following their examples of faithfulness to the Gospel, we may be

ever mindful of the suffering of those who are poor, and work diligently for the reform of our comm-unities -Collect
