- "The purpose of the Bulletin is to present to its readers various, and sometimes differing, view-points on social subjects. Its object is, therefore, information and not propaganda. The Editorial Board does not necessarily endorse all, or any, of the opinions expressed in its publications". -- p. 3.
- Contents: [List of] Publications of the Council for Social Service of the Church of England in Canada Available for Distribution -- Bolshevism : A Lecture Delivered Before the Deanery of Lincoln and Welland at Welland, January 20th, 1921 / John W. Hamilton -- Social Service Notes and News.
- "The time has come when we must educate, not the Socialist with a view to converting him, but the masses of the people, whose minds are open to conviction. They do not come to the churches. Then let the churches go to them. Let us organize. Let men study the conditions; let them go to the factory and the street corners; let us with all zeal and sympathy win the masses by a mutual understanding. The classes are strangers, if not enemies, and will continue to be until we make efforts to reach them, and they understand, the broader, the happier possibilities of, not a nominal, but a real Christian Society. .... Bolshevism is a danger in any country, only in so far as the Spirit of Christian fellowship has failed to permeate that country". -- pp. 17, 18.

- "Canada's involvement in the International Scene has come sharply into focus in recent months. Therefore, one of our present tasks is to define in specific terms the responsibility which Canada has, as a greatly privileged nation, towards other nations and peoples. In this task the Church must share. This Bulletin, which is in some respects a sequel to Bulletin No. 166, `The Church in the International Scene', indicates some of the areas of obligation and a few of the many opportunities for service which face our nation." "Immigration is a significant aspect of Canada's international obligations". -- Intro.

This report is a result of the work of the Task Force. .... The Task Force produced ten recommendations for the Church to consider in relation to future work in this area. These are included in this report for consideration by appropriate committees and persons in both diocese and parish". -- Intro., p. 4.

- "The work of the chaplaincy at Canada's Atlantic ports has now entered upon its fiftieth year of helpful service, the first port chaplain the Rev. T.W. Fyles having been appointed in 1833. It is a work in which the Church of England blazed the way for other communions. .... The transfer in 1920 of the responsibility for, and the supervision of, the chaplaincy work to the Council for Social Service ... had as marked an effect upon the Council itself as upon the work of the chaplaincy service. It led to the formation and development of one of the most useful branches of the Council's work, its Department for the Welcome and Welfare of the Newcomer, which in turn led to the undertaking of very definite and organized work for the welcome and welfare of the newcomer in many dioceses. It led also to the careful study by the Council of the many and complex problems of immigration". -- Intro.

- "Early in January [2015], the Canadian government pledged to welcome an additional 10,000 Syrian refugees over the next three years. .... In December [2014], Canada had committed to resettle only 1,300 people. Immigration Minister Chris Alexander said that he expected that about 60 per cent of the 10,000 would be sponsored privately by sponsorship agreement holder organizations, which include many church groups; the remaining 40 per cent would be government-assisted refugees". "The comment caused a stir among sponsorship agreement holder groups, who told the 'Anglican Journal' that they were not consulted before the minister suggested that they should be responsible for sponsoring an additional 6,000 refugees over the next three years". Alexandra Kotyk, a member of the Sponsorship Agreement Holder Council and sponsorship director of the Toronto-based Anglican United Refugee Alliance said "To have us be part of the [government's] pledge is pretty unprecedented". "The CCR [Canadian Council for Refugees] also urged the government not to restrict its commitment to Syrian refugees to religious minorities, which it said would 'mean discrimination against Muslim refugees in need of resettlement'".
