“THE RELIGION OF
GEORGE WASHINGTON"
At one time at Valley Forge, Wash-'
i ington was found kneeling in the
! snow praying for help and guidance.
General Temple found him again on
| his knees in his tent at headquarters.
His tent was divided into two sec
tions, one where he lived and the otj:
er where he drew apart for prayer
Washington was a man of prayer. .He
grew up with the Book of Common
Prayer, w’hich he carried with him all
j the time. When General Braddock
died and Washington was asked to
: take the burial service, he took the
; Prayer Book from his coat and read
it. In 1891 there was discovered in
Philadelphia a book, called “The
Daily Sacrifices.” It had come from
an old trunk of Washington’s front
! Alt. Vernon and it contained fourteer.
prayers, two for every day of the
week in Washington’s hand writ
ing.
Washington was a regular church
| attendant. He believed in identifying
himself with those who are banded
together for the purpose of promot
, ing the religion of Jesus Christ.. The
| church he most frequently attended
was Pohick parish. He was a ves
tryman and a warden in the church.
Sometimes he attended the church
at Alexandria which was sixteen
j miles up the river. While he was in
! New York during his presidency, he
attended St. Paul’s chapel. During
| the war he maintained his habit of
regular church attendance. He gave
orders that in case certain important
dispatches were received while he
was at church, they should be brought
to him there. Such was done. He
opened them and read them; then
| his Prayer Book and gave his mind
to the worship of God.
| It is not the fashion to go to church
today. Many have lost this habit out
of their lives. It will do you no harm
and it may do you some good to get
back into the habit again. At any
rate it will help the town in which
you live. Theodore Roosevelt said,
j “In this actual world, a community
j where men have abandoned and scof
fed at or ignored their religious needs
is a community on the rapid down
grade.”
“The Religion of Washington” will
be the subject of the sermon at St.
| Peter’s Episcopal Church next Sun
day morning at 11 a. m.
Sergeant William Rogers ot the
Signal Corps, stationed at Valdez, will
arrive in Seward on the Alameda, en
ropte to Chiguik to open the wireless
station there for use by the Army
aviators. Sgt. Rogers is one of the
oldest men in point of service on the
system, having been stationed on the
trail for many years.
