42 WINNETKA TALK December 5, 1925 NEW MINISTER COMES | TO SERVE COMMUNITY (Continued from page 3) the time of the Armistice Mr. Good- win was in Germany and was sent | to Coblenz where he was made princi- pal of one of the buildings in the! Central Post school. He reached home in June, 1919, entered the Chi- cago Theological Seminary in the fall and was graduated in 1922, at the same time getting his Master's degree at the University of Chicago and also serving as. director of religious educa- tion at South Congregational church, Chicago. He was ordained December 1. 1921, and accepted in January, 1922, the call to his present church in Dun- dee. Members of Mr. Goodwin's father's family were Methodists. His grand- father was a Methodist minister. His mother's family was Presbyterian. Her brother and two nephews are ministers in that church. The Goodwin family joined the Congregational church when they came to Chicago in 1911. Mrs. Thomas Goodwin's father, Rev. John Reynolds, was also a Methodist minister, in Wisconsin. She is a graduate of Lawrence college at Ap- pleton, Wis. They have no children, having lost an only child a year and a half ago. Mr. Richards stated some of the ways in which Mr. Goodwin, as as- sociate minister, may serve the church and community although he empha- sized the fact that plans could not be presented in detail since there are many things which must be worked out by the three ministers later. He spoke of the need of a second service on Sunday, either vesper or eve- ning. It might be Mr. Goodwin's task --and no small one--to build up such a service. During Mr. Richard's ab- sence in the summer, Mr. Goodwin will have complete charge and it will mean much for the church never to be with- out at least one pastor on the ground. He may take the pulpit in Mr. Rich- ard's occasional absences, may alter- nate with Mr. Davies at morning wor- ship and in conducting the communion. He will be free to offer courses of lectures if he chooses or conduct other meetings. Interested in Young People Mr. Goodwin is a young man and in- terested in young people. He was dean of boys at the Young People's camp at Tower Hill last summer. Mr. Davies spoke of the need for a Young Men's class in the Church school, work for young people above high school age, taking over the 11 o'clock service for members of the Church school, and having occasional charge of the Church school itself. The number of families carried in the parish lists has tripled during the last few years. Some arrangement, perhaps differing from year to year, will be made between Mr. Richards and Mr. Goodwin to cover the parish more effectively than is now being done. In time many people may look to Mr. Goodwin as in a special sense their pastor friend, just as many now turn to Mr. Davies more readily than to Mr. Richards. Mr. Goodwin will undoubtedly be a busy man. There was a point in question asked at the meet- ing as to any plan for giving him a vacation. The intention is for him to take his vacation before Mr. Richards leaves about the middle of July. Gives Creat Promise Other members of the committee stated their opinion that Mr. Goodwin was a young man of decided promise, expressed pleasure in meeting Mr. and Mrs. Goodwin, and affirmed a be- lief that both would readily fit into the church and community life. The as- sembly voted unanimously to extend the call to Mr. Goodwin and his ac- ceptance has since been received. There is hope that he can enter upon his duties early in January. After the session on Monday eve- ning, one of the most active and re- vered members summed it up in this fashion: "That the meeting carried a feeling of devotion, those who were there felt that this important step in Re T A dignified eleganc We will furnish a service of dignified elegance and simply charge you for the actual values received.
