The Labors of Dr. Cuyler

WHEN Dr. Theodore L. Cuyler became pastor of the Lafayette Avenue Presbyterian Church, in April, 1860, it numbered 140. It now numbers 2,330, and the Sunday-school, 1,600. It pays the salaries of three ministers in the city and two in the South, and leads every church in Brooklyn in the amount donated to foreign missions. In size it ranks third in the United States. Besides this work, he has published several books, and has contributed more than 3,000 articles for papers and magazines. He resigns in April, fearing that he will get old and will not know enough to resign. His labor is a good example for young ministers. God calls them to work.
