On a trip to the Dakotas with her husband she learned of the great need on the frontiers for Bibles and other spiritual literature. Mrs. Fargo and friends in her church in New York sent their bundles of books and periodicals westward to missionaries and pioneers via stagecoach. From this beginning a CPC network has spread throughout the American Church.</p> <p><a href="http://www.ecw-nc.org/about-church-periodical-club">read more</a></p> Church Periodical Club Sat, 30 Jun 2007 19:51:01 -0400 webmaster 44 at http://www.ecw-nc.org
