WCAN CHURCH NEWS
Rev. George W. Sach, minister
of the Lucan United Church told
a capacity congregation Sunday
morning that, the new addition to
the church for which sod was of-
ficially turned Sunday, is not a
dream child of the minister but
a project of the people for im-
mediate needs and the needs of
future generations.
Rev. Sach called for people to
take religion more seriously and
pointed out that the lack of ser-
ious thought on this in the past
is reflected in the younger gen-
eration of today. He pointed out
that there are a million people
in Canada who say they belong
to the United Church and yet the
church never sees them, “and
what is more unfortunate, we
cannot find them",
Rev. Sach predicted that if
religious education is taken out
of the schools the country would
have anarchy and bloodshed in
less than a generation, in forty
years. He drew parallels between
present day trends and the trends
in Rome prior to the fall of the
Roman Empire and suggested
this as a mirror of Canada.
Rev. Sach expressed the hope
that Canada does not follow the
path of Great Britain. He point-
ed out that Canada used to call
her the mother country and sug-
gested that now she is a second
class country on the skids whose
main exports are scotch whiskey
