HAS BEEN ADMITTED TO THE
Church Association for the Advancement of the Interests of Labor
PRINCIPLES.
I. It is of the essence ofthe teachings
of Jesus Christ that God is the Fatherof
all men and that all men are brothers.
2. God is the sole possessor of the
Earth and its fullness; Man is but the
steward of God's bounties.
3. Labor being the exercise of body,
mind and spirit in the broadening
and elevating of human life, it is the
duty of every man to labor diligently.
4. Labor as thus defined, should be
the standard of social worth.
COLLECT.
O Lord, Jesus Christ, Who didst
glorify labor by Thy life of toil, bless,
we beseech Thee, the efforts of our
Society, that we may both rejoice to
work with Thee, and may also strive
to open to all our brothers and sisters
the way to honest labor, and secure to
them the fruits of their toil; Who
with the Father and the Holy Ghost,
liest and reignest one God, world
without end.
When the divinely-intended
5.
opportunity to labor is givento all
men, one great cause of the present
wide-spread suffering nd destitution
will be removed.
