By the Golden Gate

CHAPTER XI
7/30

The growth is seen to-day in the three dioceses in the State.

California, the parent diocese, with San Francisco as its chief city, Right Rev.William Ford Nichols, D.D., Bishop, has its eighty-one clergymen, with its eighty-six parishes and missions, and 8,585 communicants.

Los Angeles, Right Rev.Joseph Horsfall Johnson, D.D., Bishop, has its forty-nine clergy, with its fifty-six parishes and missions, and 4,577 communicants; while Sacramento, Right Rev.William Hall Moreland, D.D., Bishop, has thirty-four clergymen with seventy parishes and missions, and a list of 2,556 communicants.

All this, however, is not the full evidence of the strength of the Church on the Pacific coast.
There are the church schools and hospitals and other agencies for good, and there are the blessed influences which the Church, with her stability and order and work, is exerting among the people.

The results arising from the presence of the members of the General Convention will be gratifying.
