Marvin Harz of Berea -by -the Water Lutheran Church and lay delegate Daniel Mellecke, Kincardine attended the 65th regular convention of the On- tario District of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod LCMS) at Wilfrid Laurier University, Waterloo, June 3 -6. Synodical Director of For- ward in Remembrance Dr. Gerhardt Hyatt, fourth vice• president of LCMS, promis- ed the convention that the $80,899,090 in funds collected in the Forward in Remem- brance appeal would not be diverted to ether uses. The funds from the appeal are slated for new missions, specialmissions and higher education, The goal of $40,000,000 across Synod was doubled. Ontario's goal of $1.25 million was more than doubl- ed, and $3 million was given to the project. It is believed this represents the largest in - gathering of funds for a special appeal ever record- ed, all across Christendom. "God has given ug the seed grain to plant the word," said Dr. Hyatt, "The money must not be diverted, It must be used to move ahead as a church body," Dr, Hyatt warned however, that giving to the ongoing work at large must increase. He said Synod is going into the fiscal 19'87,-83 year with a balanced budget,. but it pro -rides for no outreach whatever and represents a $19,900,090 operating debt. He announced the feasibility study by Synod to make a special appeal in 19t6 to Synod's 2i million pale for funds to include payment of the debt. NOW New Universal Life Insurance .

Gerald Scholz, Kitchener, chairman of the Department of Missions and Church Extension of the On- tario District challenged the 124 delegates to honestly ap- praise their willingness to sacrifice for the sake of Jesus Christ and His Church. "If we won't bestir ourselves to learn the mean- ing of our faith; if we do not give money to the point of pain; if we can't be counted on to worship regularly; if we are more content on be- ing spectators than par- ticipants, we don't deserve to influence the world for Christ - and we won't," said Pastor Scholz. Pastor Scholz said that in spite of inflation, unempley- mlent and even pros cts of war, God has not forsaken His 'Where's the spirit of sacrifice in a world only eager to get and not to give?" asked Pastor Scholz. "Religion without sacrifice is an exercise in words and gestures!' "1 am urging an honest ap- praised of God bland t we're withdoing awareness of His presence and power accompanying us, to venture forth with new ideas and ideals to really make His Kingdom come here in our beloved Ontario District," said Pastor Scholz. "The opportunities for missions are over- whelming," he continued, „and so are the obstacles to the work," To attract more funds to the Church Extension Fund, invested by church members and used to build churches and support mission projects in Ontario, a resolution was approved by convention to set interest rates to investors with greater flesability and in reasonable proportion to the interest rates paid by the country's financial in- stitutions, Despite this, it was pledg- ed that loans to congrega- tions would continue to be made at the lowest possible rite of interest. Convention delegates also agreed that fully secured loans be for five year periods and open for renegotiation at the end pf that time. Con- gregational payments are to be made on a monthly basis. It was reported that the Gatineau mission Saveur Vi- vant in Quebec served by Pastor David Elseroad and Vicar Thomas Zumbrock, both fully bilingual ministers of LCMS, will be building a house of worship this sum- mer. The Rev. Kim Chow will he commissioned as a mis- sionary to the Chinese in Toronto on June 21. New missions are begun in Milton and Pelham., Other new mission opportunities are in Guelph, New 13ramalea, Cobourg, Scar- borough, Vaughn Township, Whitby and East Oshawa. Jesus was man of action not idle talk BY 111E REVEREND AUSTIN GEDCK1 , BE HEL PENTECOSTAL ASSEMBLY Did you ever notice, from reading the Gospels, that Jesus Christ never wasted his time on frivolity; pointless arguments or theoretical rhetoric. His was a life of mission. Sent by God the Father to accomplish the Divine Will, Jesus 'Vent about doing.,,", He was a maim of action; Let's consider some situations in the Gospel accounts which reflect His priority of purpose, Instead of . debating at length why a man was blind; Jesus set about to help him, Some for are• so busy ex- plaining %plaining things that they do not have much time to do much. Jesus was so brnky el anging people and situa- tions that He allowed very little time for idle talk and vanities of the mind, .

In- stead, lie worked • in a carpenter's shop, metand conquered temptation in the wilderness, restored joy to families and individuals through His personal con- tact, raised :the dead, loved little children and healed the sick, Instead of talking at length on how the Christian philosophy could transform men's lives,' Jess went out and practised Christianity— Ile forgave the sins of a harlot and made her the first herald of lits resurrection:.

Rather than using the hungry multitude as a case for world starvation, He fed the multitude. Instead of lec- turing the crippled on their unique form of handicap, He said, "Arise take up thy bed, and walk," Just when a sermon should be preached on forgiveness, while Jesus was dying and being spit upon, He prayed, "'Father, forgive them". Instead of of- fering f-fer» ng theories about 'God, He said, "l am the way," I like this kind of Saviour,. Methinks we should preach less about the Christian ethic, and get back to the basics .., how a living faith in the eternal God can CHANGE US and MEET OUR REAL ZEDS, Jesus is not out there somewhere; He's here, and He's real, and He wants to give us His ine- welling prese. ce. A legend gc •s that a man got caught in some quick- sand. Confucius saw him and remarked, ""There is evidence men should stay out of such places." Buddha came by and said, "Let that life be a lesson to the rest of the world." Mohammed said, "Mas, it is the will of Allah," The Hindu said, "Cheer up, friend, you will return to earth in another form," But when Jesus saw him He said, "Give rine your hand, brother, and 1 will poll yon out," The Bible tells us, "For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might HE SAVED." (John .3;17) He's the God- man of action.
