Nurses' Christian Union
Some nurses and others in touch with the nursing' world are hoping before long that a Nurses' Christian Union may be started throughout New Zealand. For some years there has been such a union banding together the nurses of Australia. Each State has its own committee elected by its nurses, and there is an interstate travelling secretary. Like the Student Christian movement, the N.Z. Nurses' Christian Union will be interdenominational, its purpose being to link nurses together in the spirit of fellowship and of common desire to deepen their spiritual life.
The organisation will ho simple: Bible study, on the study circle method; meetings for fellowship or conference, and occasional inter-hospital conferences. With the consent of the hospital authorities, it is hoped that branches will be formed in every hospital. Membership will also be open to nurses who have passed on from their trainingschools to take up other work, so that they too may have the opportunity of sharing the fellowship of the union. Miss E. G. Williams, of Rotoa, Pukekow, Hawke's Bay, would be iglad to hear from any who are interested in this movement.
