far back as 1943 and the Plan of
Union was accepted by all 3 com-

meetings in 1971, with the first
revised draft, being approved in
1972. The 1974 General Council of
the United Church gave approval
to the Articles of Faith. Worship.
Ministry and Organization.
It is now up to local con-
gregations of the 3 communions
to organize study groups to con-
sider 'The Plan' in order to vote
intelligently in 1976.

of making this months draw and
