AUTO GLASS LIMOVED
(Intended for last week)
After considerable"debate the
members of Huron -Perth
Presbytery .of the United
Church of Canada, -meeting in
Fullarfon on last Tuesday,
questioned the support its
highest Court, General Council
has given to the ,California
Grape and Lettuce Boycott.
A resolution was passed
asking the General Council to:
(1) meet with the other Church
bodies that joined with 'it in the
Boycott issue, to re-examine
the whole situation, ..and (2)
institute a study, from the
viewpoint of Christian ethics,
into the economic forces being
used today. e.g. boycotts,
strikes, crop destruction, ex-
cess profits; cartells and
monopolies;
The, meeting dealt with two
other social issues during the'
day -long session. Rev. Min
Beaton of Centralia, introduced
"a motion asking that
Presbytery strongly object to
the change in Ontariotaw that
allows children to ,..drink
alcoholic beverages at home.
Notice of this action is to be
sent to the Government of
Ontario.
The Divislab of World
Outreach, under the chair-
manship of Rev. George Ball of
Milverton, also 'presented a
motion involving the Ontario
Government. It asked that all
members 4of United Church
congregations write personal
letters. to - Premier William
Davis;itrgiing "the Ontario`
'Government to, "match dollar -
for -dollar, the monies given
voluntarily by the citizens of
Ontario through international
agencies and churches for
socio-economic, self-help
development programs in the
third. world",
This is a similar resolution
that was contained in a Brief
presented to the Government in
January by the Ontario Council,
of Churches.
Rev. Walton Tonge, of
Stewardship . Services ;of the
United Church, was the guest of
Presbytery , in the afternoon,
and made\a' major presentation.
"on- a nevvisitation-program.,
v,," the "Commitment Plan", Mr.
Tonge has been touring Canada
introducing the plan, which has'
been developed by 15
Denominations in the U.S. and
Canada.
.The Church too, he said,
needs to make adjustrrenfs in a,
period of recession, and thus
the need for a"unified approach:
The Church begins with:
commitment, and that is what
the plan first seeks to increase.
It used the terminology of
football to generate interest
and understanding, and comes
with a series of kits.
Mr: "Tonge enthusiastically
concluded that churches who
use the program can be assured
of .three ^ results: a deepened
spiritual life in the
congregation; the involvement
of people in great numbers;
•
increased givings.
.Until 1965 Mr. Tonge had
been a missionary in China,
and he also `offered some
comments e'on the Mid -East
situation. He had predicted
'upon his return to Canada, that
China wou one day dominate
Asia.
He then' went on to say, "1 am
convinced that ,the form of
Communism that is now taking
over Vietnam and Cambodia, is,
far different than the type of
which we normally think."
In fact, he felt that it was the
best alternative to the
corruption that now exists in
these countries,
"We can have no idea of what
goes on, and thus itwill take a
, puritanical, highly -disciplined
group to overcome it," Mr.
Tonge said. •
He concluded, however, that
great good will eventually
come after a five to ten year
period of Communist
domination. The people will one
day develop their own gover-
nment and future. . •
A number of local Churches
will be experiencing changes in
Ministers at the end of June. It
was learned that Rev. Clarence,
McClenaghan will , be leaving
Dungannon, and Rev. Murray
Aspden of Millbank has ac-
cepted 'a call .to the Binbrook
Charge near Hamilton.
The new minister :coming to
Grand Bend is Rev. Harley
Moore from Cedar Springs,
