Dialogue:
A way of witness
Mrs. Wilfred congrank spoke
on the topic, "Dialogue: A Way of
Wltness",» at the June meeting of
the Women's Missionary Society
of St. Andrew's Presbyterian
Church.
She said, "Wherever we live,
we live in a placeof religious
plurality and we need to prepare
ourselves to hear what other -re-
ligions have to say. Dialogue with
people of other faiths should be a.
\journey of exploration, in, the be-
lief that the Holy Spirit guides
men into all truth."
"Dialogue is a » two-way con-
versation, a way for us to wit-
ness. Some people have highly
sophisticated religions, while
others reject religion entirely.
However, all are seeking the
same end: "a salvation" which
will give them peace, joy and ful-
fillment." She continued, "If 'we
know something of our faith We
should be able to have dialogue
with others. Truth and salvation
begin with God and we are to
witness to that salvation.
-Dialogue» brings conflict. but -Beg
ugliness, or bitterness. We must .
have ,communication with others,
with- the aim Ito further the
proclamation of the gospel of
Jesus Christ to the end that all
might believe on Him and be
saved."
Mrs. Congram followed her
remarks with the question,
"What are some truths that you
think are important in your
faith?". This was answered by a
panel consisting of Mrs. Jack Mc-
Kague, Mrs. Roy Hastings, Mrs.
William McKinney and Mrs.
Victor Young, each contributing
by telling her idea of her faith. All
of our faiths have significant
differences. God sent his Son to
redeem all and to bring about our
salvation.' »•
The president, Mrs. Robert
Armstrong, opened the meeting
with a poem followed by the sing-
ing of "The Lord's my Shep-
herd". All joined together in
repeating "The Lord's Prayer".
Minutes and correspondence
were read by the secretary, Mrs.
Gordon Wall. Announcement was
made of the Home Helpers' meet-
ing to be held on Tuesday, June
25. A total of 72 visits was re-
corded when the roll call was
taken.
Mrs. William McKirm4 read
from the scripture Acts 17:2/-31
