N.Z. ANGLICAN GIRLS' BIBLE CLASS UNION.

LONE MEMBERS SCHEME.

There are many girls belonging to our Church, scattered throughout New Zealand who cannot, by reason of their distance from Church, or for some equally good reason, attend a Bible Class. In 1930, the Union extended its scope, m order to reach such girls with fellowship and Bible study. A Lone Members' Scheme was formed — a correspondence Bible Class — with a secretary m each Diocese, and a Dominion general secretary, and a text book was chosen. The general secretary is Mrs. M. Brown, Waiau Pa, Auckland, and the secretary for Waiapu is Miss Warren, Nelson Street, Hastings. The text books used are: (1) "A People's Life of Christ"; (2) "The Life and Letters of St. Paul"; both by J. S. Paterson Smyth; (3) "A Religion for Monday Morning," by K. E. Mac Lean. Four questions are set each month (or one for a week) on the text book, and a Bible portion, and members are m touch with their secretary, with whom they correspond, and to whom they submit their answers. Girls wno become Lone Members have all the privileges of membership, instruction, and fellowship of the New Zealand Anglican Girls' Bible Class Union equally with those who join a Bible Class m the usual way. Further information about this scheme will be gladly given by the secretary.
