Gideons challenged to
raising future budgets
About 80 Gideons from camps
in London, Woodstock, St.
Thomas and Tillsonburg met for
the annual zone rally in Exeter
United Church, May 23, which
was hosted by the South Huron
camp.
Guest speaker at the evening
session was Cecil Roberts,
Toronto, who has been a full time
worker with the Gideons for 21
years and who helped form the
local camp in December 1955. At
present he is editor of the Gideon
magazine.
In his remarks, he outlined the
growth of the Gideons since 1945
when there were 2,400 members
in three countries; USA, Canada
and Iceland.
The organization now has
camps in 186 countries around
the world.
The Canadian budget is
$527,000.00 and in 1969, 9,000
New Testaments, and 1,000
Bibles were distributed in the
country.
Mr. Roberts stated Canadian
Gideons have lead the way in
many areas.
They were the first to place
Bibles in hospitals and the first
hospital to receive them was
Victoria Hospital, London, in
1945.
The practice of giving New
Testaments to Grade V students
was first implemented by
Canadians, as was the placing of
Bibles in penal institutions.
Gideons in other countrieS
have adopted these customs in
recent years.
He challenged the membership
to dedication in meeting the
needs of the organization.
"We must distribute according
to the need and not according to
the resources . . . and we should
be thankful doors are still open to
us,"
He told the audience Gideons
are often allowed into far places
where the churches are no longer
allowed to go.
Mr. Roberts challenged his
listeners to the tasks of the future
and the raising of the budget.
He quoted John Esley, as
saying, "Spiritual decline in any
church has always been preceded
in stewardship decline."
Mayor Jack Delbridge brought
greetings from the the town of
Exeter and from Exeter United
Church.
He complimented the Gideons
for "what you are doing in trying
to get some of the increasing
world problems under control."
President of South Huron
Camp, Don Jolly, was chairman
for the evening; Harry Hoffman,
Dashwood, led a hymn-sing;
Squire Herdrnan and Edgar
Cudmore assisted in the program
and the Tait family played and
sang several songs.
