Excerpt from The Evolution of Democracy
The First Baptist Church of Los Gatos, California, Robert Whitaker, Minister, in the month of June, 1914, which was the Fifth. Anniversary of the present pastorate, began the observance of what is known as "Conference Sunday." This was held on the last Sunday of the month, and each month's last Sunday since has been set apart for a like observance, with a slight variation since Christmas time of 1915.
On Conference Sunday the Sunday School meets as usual, at 10 a. m., and the regular preaching service is held at 11 a. m. After this service, at which the pastor commonly: reaches, the congregation sit down to a common meal, which is a sort of new observance of the "Lord's Supper" among us, probably much more like that which Jesus had in mind for His memorial than the more formal observance of the Communion Service which for many reasons we still maintain.
