FOR VISITING SEAMEN
MISSION TO BUILD NEW HALL UNITY IN SOCIAL WORK As a result of an effort to secure greater co-operation in mission and social work for the benefit of seamen visiting Auckland, the Plying Angel Mission will re-erect the home mission hall in Albert Street. The movement is the result of the Sailors’ Home Society approving a plan providing for the transfer of a small piece of its land to the Missions to Seamen. Mr. G. Sanders, president of the society, said last evening that cooperation between the Sailors’ Home and the Flying Angel Mission was a project in which Earl Jellicoe had taken a great interest. In addition to the hall, the mission building would include a small chape!, and the necessary offices and social rooms for the use of its patrons. In the agreement provision would be made ensuring that the Sailors’ Home mission hall should be entirely undenominational, and that the * Flying Angel Mission should not enter into competition with the home in catering for boarders. The Mayor, the chairman of the Harbour Board, and also a representative of the home, would be added to the committee controlling the Flying Angel Mission.
