The Church Intelligencer is "the accredited organ of the Bishops of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Arkansas, and the University of the South."

At the time of this run, the paper was edited by F.M. Hubbard and George M. Everhart, both North Carolina clergymen. Everhart acts as Tract and Book Editor for the Protestant Episcopal Church. Each issue contains poetry and communications from other church newspapers, particularly regarding church war efforts, local church members' obituaries, and some serialized stories and articles. Ecclesiastical intelligence and diocesan intelligence contain communications from various collegial sources. The Children's Department has stories and poems for youth. Ads cover catechisms and religious and church literature, religious schools and academies, and church employment.
