Text transcribed from caption: PEP-18528. EPISCOPALIANS GET 'DIAL-A-PRAYER'.
CORONNADO, CAL. -- The Rev. W. Don Brown, rector of Christ Episcopal Church
here, has started a "Dial-A-Prayer" telephone service which has become
popular in this area. The program is the first of its kind started by an
Episcopal church in the country. By dialing a special number church members
can hear a prayer previously recorded by Mr. Brown. The clergyman records
three different prayers each day -- for the morning, afternoon, and evening
hours. During the first two weeks after the phone service was started some
500 persons called daily. CREDIT MUST READ: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO
