Mauila, July 21
A church in which ali denomina- Lions of the Protestant, faith can Dies to worship, will be started in Buguio as soon as rainy season is ended, is expected to be ready
in time for Christmas services. The church, which is to roat 235,000, will built entirely by voluntary subscription. A drive for freds in Baguio has been a devicle success, and the campaign set will be extended to Manila.
Heretofore the only Protestov church in Baguio. has been the small chapel of the Unite Brethren, opposite the city hall For a long time this has been in Padegate to accommodate the large crowd that wished to werthip oa | Sundays, especially during the summer months. Backers of the movement point out that last sea son more than 13,000 people visit- ed Baguio. coming. not only from the islands, but from Ching, Japan and 'Straits Settlements, and in- elading many world tourists.
•
The new charch, of which the architecture will be in keeping with the beauty of Baguio, is to be built on the site of the old chapel, which has been extended by the purchase of land for P2,800. This low part of the church is to be built of Baguio rock, the upper part of concrete, with stained glass Windows, મંગ number of which already have been contracted for. The present chapel is to be moved to another part of the same plot, and is to be used as a non-sectarian funeral parlour.
