Excerpt from Pre-Assembly Congress: Addresses Delivered at the Presbyterian Pre-Assembly Congress, Held in Massey Hall, Toronto, Saturday, May 31st, to Wednesday, June 4th, 1913, With Reports of Committees The daring suggestion of such a Congress, the spirit of prayerful ness with which preparations were made, and with which the Congress was entertained and supported, the consciousness of an Unseen Presence throughout all its sessions, the sanity and earnestness of the discussions and the faith and largeness of vision characterizing the resolutions adopted - all give evidence of the gracious guidance of an unerring Hand. The Great Head of the Church has in store for the Canadian Presbyterian Church greater things than she has hitherto known, if she will but follow where He leads. That seems to be the dominant impression of the Congress. 'our helplessness in presence of unprecedented problems is our hope. His strength is perfected in our weakness. If there comes disappointment, it will not be His fault, nor the fault of the Congress. It will be ours, especially the fault of the ministry and of other leaders of the Church, in not bestir ring ourselves, in not casting aside every weight and reaching forth unto those things that are before.
