 The History of Overend Methodist Mission, Cradley
Various surveys of social conditions in England at the turn of the century demonstrated that, in spite of being the richest nation on earth, a large proportion of the population was living in abject poverty.
Up to the present, one building has had to serve as a Church and Sunday School as well as a place for entertainment, and it will be readily understood that this has been a great handicap to the leaders who have, however, pluckily stuck to their task.
We are desirous of raising as much as possible by the time of the completion of the new school in the autumn, and invite the kind and generous assistance of all those interested in Sunday School work, and the moral and spiritual welfare of the people of our district.
