An open-air centennial service, in which most of the principal church dedominations will combine, will be held at Lancaster Park on January 7, 1940. The Rev A. C. Watson, who gave details of the service to the Christchurch Presbytery, said that the Rev J. Lawson Robinson, Moderator-elect of the Presbyterian General Assembly, would 'preside, and Bishop West-Watson would preach. Singing would be led by the Salvation Army Band, and by a male voice quartet relayed through loud-speakers. As pari of the Canterbury celebrations, the churches would be asked to hold special services on April 7. 1940.
