it. As we look back over a half a century, we see the parish to have grown from a handful of families to the great size of more than 2,600, or more than 10,000 souls. Seven hundred and five children attend our school, which is staffed by 18 Sisters of Saint Francis. The $15,000.00 plant at 25th and Howell Streets in 1893 has yielded to the spacious grounds and buildings at 29th and Westfield, worth more than $350,000.00. Through the consistent generosity of his parishioners the present pastor has been enabled to reduce the original debt by almost $200,000.00. It will not be long, let us hope, before the entire indebtedness is completely paid and further steps taken to care for the spiritual needs of our people in this rapidly growing section, fulfilling in ever more perfect ways the command of our Divine Master: "All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and behold, I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world."
