A—6 PRAYER 70 URGE IDEAL OF PEAGE Churches of World Asked to Join in “Concert” Against War. 1 A universal appeal to churches of all denominations to join in a "wor!d“ concert of prayer for peace” has been | sent out by the Federal Council of | the Churches of Christ in America. The “concert of prayer,” launched | during Holy week, is only one of the | many measures being taken by the | Federal Council in the interest of peace, Samuel McCrea Cavert, gen- eral secretary, points out. | By educational programs in churches and Sunday schools, by messages to the general public‘ through the press, by representations to Government officials and legislators | concerning the will-to-peace among | thoughtful Christian people, Cavert | says. the council is exerting a con- stant influence to ‘“keep our Nation | from drifting mm policies that \muld tend toward war.” A pamphlet entitled WOlld-Wlde Call to Prayer for Peace” written | by Dr. Walter Van Kirk, is belng distributed universally. “At this ominous hour when the sppctcr of war again haunu Lhe‘ world,” the pamphlet says, “we in- | vite all followers of Christ to umle in earnest praver for peace. Only | a new and united will to peace, born of a deep faith in God and fellowship with Him, can save the world from threatened tregedy. Only the spirit- ual power derived from a united dedication to seeking and following God's will for mankind is adequate | to stay the rising currents of selfish nationalism and bring peace to a dis- ordered world.” JUNIOR BOARD PLANS' YOUTH FETE MAY 2; Representatives of All Boys' Or- ganizations in Chest Will Be Guests.
