What is the most necessary work of this church in Milton?
It is to go out and seek and save the lost.

It is to take up its cross and follow the Master.

And as I see Him to-day he beckons this church to follow Him into the tenements and slums of this town and be Christs to those who do not know Him.

As I see Him He stands beckoning with pierced palms in the direction of suffering and disease and ignorance and vice and paganism, saying: 'Here is where the work of Calvary Church lies.' I do not believe the work of this church consists in having so many meetings and socials and pleasant gatherings and delightful occasions among its own members; but the real work of this church consists in getting out of its own little circle in which it has been so many years moving, and going, in any way most effective to the world's wounded, to bind up the hurt and be a savior to the lost.

If we do not understand this to be the true meaning of church work, then I believe we miss its whole meaning.
