Prayer Rally Days in the early 1900's



Prayer rallies are still present today...especially in the south...
looks like "God Squads" were just as busy over 100 years ago...
All Good Wishes for a Joyous Birthday
A simple greeting on a card, 
But still let it impart,  
The earnest wish, the deep regard, 
That lives within my heart.

Addressed to Mrs. Amelia Brockman  15 Ave B  City

"Search the Scriptures"    I wish you could meet with the women
 in the church the first Friday of each month 3 P.M. 
 for a Missionary meeting.

This is a special invitation to you to be present 
at the Rally Day Services on Oct. 6, 1912.  
We want this day to mark the renewal of our devotion 
to the very important work we are together 
trying to do in the Master's Name. 
 Because of your interest we feel sure that you will come.  
Bring someone with you.  
Cordially yours,  Elizabeth Glaser

Dear Pearl,  
I know you will be present Sabbath to help Polly (sic--Rally?)
