These programs aim to tr,ainnational leaders, to moti- vate for economic and social development, and to work out pilot •projects needed for social change and development. Today's church must be con- cerned with ,not 'just economic ' growth but spiritual growth as well for thepke of a more humane societ The All Africa Conference of Churches created in 1963 is an ecumenical fellowship and an organ of co-operation and con= sultation among the churches of Africa. Its membership is con- fined entirely to self-governing, churches spread throughout th0 . , continent. It also includes some of the fundamental churches. , The urge to unity has been a marked characteristic since independence. Concrete, co- , operative activities are Jiving • tried—common forms of worship, common programs for the train.: • in of clergy and laymen, and' I ssiont- evaliVlizatioie teams. The quiet intrusion of • native culture with the new instit- utions of change has been a fea- ture of African life. Many churches are accepting the obligation "to renew all things in Christ in Africa", which means not only, the christianizing of African customs, but an infusion • of Christian meaning into the African way of life. Miss Taylor concluded her talk by reading a poem, "I'se Done My Best" which . has become a negro spiritual and Mrs. Ford and Miss Taylor played a piano duet exemplifying particularly the harmony, rhythm, and beat of African music. • Following the closing hymn, Mrs. G.
