Methodist churches participate in CHEC
The Rossville Methodist Church, in cooperation with all the Methodist Churches of the Kansas Conference, will be participating during the month of January in the Christian Higher Education Campaign to enlarge and improve the facilities at Baker University and the Wesley Foundations at the state schools and colleges in our state.
This Campaign has been prompted by a realization that the needs of our youth for higher education are not going to be met unless some immediate and significant action is taken both to enlarge the facilities and improve their services. As has been noted by our president and leaders in education, the need for high quality college education for more and more of our young people is a pressing need. The Methodist Church is answering the challenge by improving the schools and services for which it is responsible.
It is expected that this campaign will bring in $1,540,000 from the entire Kansas Conference to help meet this most pressing need.
