Waiapu Church Gazette. Thursday, April Ist, 1920. Easter Offerings.
There are still many Churchmen ■who do not know of. the ancient custom, adopted by the Church m New Zealand, of making special offerings at Easter for the clergy. : Although the stipends of some . clergy have been raised since the war, m, no case has the increase been proportionate to the great increase m the. cost of Uving, whilst m a few cases no increase at all has been made. More than ever therefore are they depend- , ent upon their Easter offerings to enable them to live. May we appeal again to all Churchmen to remember their clergy at Easter, giving generously if they attend church on that day, and if unayoidly prevented from performing their religious duties by their distance from a -church, sending their offering through the church- ) wardens or others who may present it for them. •
