Transcription: H7221 Windaro Methodist Episcopal Church. A mighty dingy light to set on a hill. It is a disgrace to its general surroundings and doesn't meet requirements at all.

Kansas City, Kansas H7222 Central Ave. Methodist Episcopal Church. Effective membership 1003 Sunday School average attendance over 500. The primary department must be held in old church in rear, which is a menace to health. The U.S. Gov't has ordered the completion of the Central Ave. viaduct from Kansas City No. which will immediately multiply the usefullness and the opportunity of this church. A fine completely equipped social and community centre church should be built here at once to cost $70,000 or $80,000 if we are to in any reasonable degree, be effective in this field.

This little mission church is in a growing community filled with well paid workers in the mills and packing houses, but who are hard hit by the requirments that they buy bonds and subscribe to all war activities liberally. The membership is 150 and there is no other Protestant Church anywhere in the neighborhood. The house next door is indicative of the type of people in the nearby section of the city.
