The Church Speaks'he 'ponsored byth WHITBY MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION BY REV. G.A. HUNT Whltby Baptiat Church Clergymen on holiday have a chance to hear other clergymen, and sometimes laymen, too. We went to a church wbere a deacon was leacling the service in the pastor's absence. The surprising thing about this deacon was that for years he bad wrestled with a kingsize stammer. At times under pressure he could flot get tbrough a sentence witbout stuttering. George bad worked bard to overcome bis problem. Once ini a wbile he amazed people by rat- tling. off a funny story he had carefully memorized. But most situations were tougb and talking on the telephone was sometimes murder. About ten years ago George began bis journey of faith. He became a Christian and was baptized at the church where bis wife's family attended. There were awkward and embarassing moments. Other stammerers would have. stayed far from public gatberings. But George feit etat is loyalty to Christ, meant geting involved in the work of the cburch. He was asked to be treasurer. That meant gomng to business meetings, making verbal reports and an- swering questions. The stammer remnained deeply Brownie and'Guide regis tira tion Whitby District Brownies & Guides wil be holding their registration evening on Wednesday, Septem- ber 7, from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at E.A.

In bis job at the accounting department of a daily newspaper George bad to deal wltb the public and answer the phone. Callers just had to watt for hlm to get bis tongue on track. But be persevered. As people got to know George they were more un- derstanding and prepared to be patient. Ms sense of bumor covered many awkward moments. As time passed Georges responsibiities and pressures grew. A new Job with the shcool board, new duties at cburcb along witb the blrtba of two ac- tive daughters and a fair amount of slckness in the family - tbere was a constant need for com- munication and verbalizing. A few weeks ago we satifn tbe congregation while George conducted tbe worshîp and brought us a sermon without besitation*. It was a deligbt to bear bis free flow of speech. How did be do it? Wbatever the specialists may say about curing a stammer, I believe a major factor in George's case was bis sense of Christian vocation. Not only was bis job necessary for income and family security, but it was God's calling. The workplace was the setting for Cbristian service. The stammner Mad teIg»a&W graduaily it did. SAt noon after lunch George would t". tu& with feilow workers.and discusa vital quWe life with answers form the Bible and personal e«. perience, verbalizing continuaily. I'm sure George would give full credit for support- and encouragement to bis loving wife and the caring cburcb. In the cburch tbere were small groups for feilowship and discussion, where the pressures were off and persons could work together at their bangups. None of tbis tberapy was by experts and ail of it was free of charge!1 Many bandicapped persons will neyer overcome as George did. Many will ask if there is any joy or victory- witbout relief or cure. Or if God really cares. One answer I bave beard is "ýGod ailowed me to keep my disability as a permanent souvenir of bis love." Few may find that kind of reasoning ac- cpetable. If there is a God of tbe universe, bowever, and five billionof us, it is surprising that be should pay any attention to an individual's problem of speech. Today we bave so mucb profession belp.
