MEETINGS PLANNED Gold Hill The Christian endeavor group of the Gold Hill Christian church will meet Sun day at 7 p.m. at the home of Darlene Allison, 560 First st., Gold Hill. The Thursday mid week service of the church will meet at 7:30 p.m. at the home of Mabel Goodwin, 1187 Second ave. Friday, November 1, 1957 marked for foreign Gid home missions, relief projects and other benevolences. Per capita giving was calculat ed by dividing the total con tributions by the . number of church members over the rage of 13. Adventists Still High As usual, the Seventh Day Ad-1 ventists were way out in front with an average contribution of S202.02 per member. Close be hind were several small fund amentalist bodies which, like the Adventists, place heavy stress on tithing: The W e s 1 e y a n Methodist church $197.43; the Evangelical Free church $165; the Pilgram Holiness church $161.70; and the Ohio Yearly Meeting of Friends $142.08. None of the larger Protestant bodies came close to these fig ures. The highest per member con tributions among the major de nominations were recorded by the Southern Presbyterians and the Reformed church, which tied at $88.56. Per member giving by other major Protestant denominations: Missouri Synod Lutherans $80.88, Presbyterian USA North ern $72.03, Congregational Christian $65.18, United Luther an $58,46, Evangelical Lutheran $56.47, Protestant Episcopal $52. 79, Southern Baptists $48.17, Methodist church $43.82, Ameri can Northern Baptists $37.18, Disciples of Christ $37.14. Precise Figures Unknown No precise statement can be made about the proportion of his income which the average Protestant gives to his church. Per capita personal income of Americans was $1,935 last year. But children under 13 are count ed in computing this figure, and are not counted in computing the average giving figure, so the two are not fairly comapr able. Various "reports" are issued from time to time which give a total figure for all U.S. ging to churches. Since no official information is available on Cath olic and Jewish contributions, these reports are little more than guesses. The usual procedure is to increase the National Coun cil's total for Protestant churches by about 70 to 75 per cent, on the assumption that the extra amount will cover Catholic and Jewish giving. o Sunday School Takes Imaginary Plane Trips Phoenix The Phoenix Church of the Nazarene Sunday school has an imaginary a i r- plane trip in progress over th Nazarene missionary sations of the world.
