Synopsis
Excerpt from The Building of a Diocese: A Discourse Delivered at the Centennial Celebration of the Founding of the Diocese of Pennsylvania, May 24, 1884, in Christ Church, Philadelphia
Nehemiah 11. 18 - 20.-and they said, Let us rise up and build. So they strengthened their hands for this 'good work.
The God of Heaven, He will prosper'us therefore, we His servants, will arise and build.
We can imagine such words as these, spoken by those, who, a hundred years ago to-day, met in this City to build up. The waste places of their Spiritual Zion.
Like that patriot-prophet, Nehemiah, they had taken a survey of the desolation of the House of God after the War of the Revolution; and knowing by actual observation what ought to be done, they set themselves to do 'it, saying one to another, Let us arise and build; and they comforted each other with the assurance, The God of Heaven, He will prosper us.
