Description
Excerpt from Deaconesses, Biblical, Early Church, European, American: With the Story of the Chicago Training School, for City, Home and Foreign Missions, and the Chicago Deaconess Home
Wendell Phillips had a famous lecture on the Lost Arts but in it did not include that greatest of lost arts in the religious world - viz: the work of Deaconesses. That the Church could ever have fallen away from an applica tion of Christianity so helpful, comforting and blessed, having enjoyed it once, furnishes proof sadly significant of the human alloy that so grievously (dis)tempers its gold.
