Council of Churches Passes Resolution The Wingham and District Council of Churches met in St. Paul's Angli- can Church on Friday. This meeting was specially summoned at short not- ice to consider the policy of the Coun- cil with regard to a proposed Sunday afternoon public concert in Wingham to raise funds for flood relief abroad. There were 22 members present re- presenting the following denomina- tions, United Church, Anglican Church, Presbyterian Church, Baptist Church and Salvation Army. The members discussed the efforts being made in their own churches to promote this worthy cause and ex- pressed their earnest desire to co-op- erate, in addition, in all civic efforts for this purpose. They were concerned however with the threat to Sabbath Observance that seemed to be contained in the act of holding a fund raising concert on Sunday and also the possibility of in- terference with Sunday School attend- ance. The following resolution was passed unanimously. "Whereas, we the members of the Wingham and District Council of Churches do hold to the principle that the institution of the Sabbath is for purposes of rest and worship, we would go on record as being opposed to any secular encroachment on this day. We believe that the people of the counties of Huron and Bruce do cher- ish our inherited way of observing the Sabbath day. In view of the proposed concert to be held on Sunday afternoon in aid of British and European Flood Relief, we the members of the Wingham and District Council of Churches feel call- ed upon to make this statement. 0,•••••••••••••••• BOX 473 I Sir: In am doing some work on Dr. Win.
