S. Lucyk, Chalmers St. United Church, Kingston, was the guest speaker for the United Church Women's 13th annual Presbyterial held in Fenelon Falls United Church on January 28. He was very capable introduced by Mrs. G. Stewart of Brechin. The subject of his address was picked up from the Theme of the Presbyterial. "He Who knoweth whether Thou art come to the Kingdom for such a time as this": Esther 4:14, "Such a Time as This' - In the world - The United Nations Pro- clamation of 1975 as "Inter- national Womens' Year". The Old Testament pictures God as a male but that which belongs to womanhood is not alien to God. In Gensis 3, sinning man will not recog- nize woman as his equal. The evil is possible but that is not an excuse to give in to it. Jesus was a feminist and treated woman in her own right. After the resurrection Jesus appeared. first to woman. Luke tells the story of a woman in a crowd who was greatly moved by Jesus teachings, also He was the Liberator and Champion of Women. The spirit of the Lord is upon me because he has set upon me to obliterate the oppressed. His second address was again taken from "Such a Time as This". In the Church - The World Council of Churches, Nairobi, Kenya 1975, Theme: Jesus Christ Frees and Unites. Jesus' name means Salvation and salvation in Hebrew means to be wide, denoting spac- iousness which leads to total well being. Spaciousness involves fertility in the earth which frees us from famine and it also means security, wholeness of life. The World Council of.' Churches thinks of Christ in 3 parts, Christ the librator, God's Salvation was not only personal but economic and political life of the people. Political Relations to man and Christians to decide be- tween the lesser of two evils and Salvation in a sense of spaciousness that will allow for growth will be revelut- ionary. Salvation and spac- iousness has to do with the whole creative order. There is a bond between plant and people, Jesus Christ frees and unites. He 1s the Liberator. He was most graciously thanked for his address by Mrs. W. English. Another speaker of much interest was Mrs. Fallis of Peterborough, who gave us an insight on the proposed Church Union. Thisistobe a uniting church and she urged everyone to study the book, Plan of Union, which was drafted in 1973, and all the churches are asked to re-commit themselves to this Plan of Union at this time. All the past U.C.W. Presi- dents were present and Mrs. Murray, the first one spoke briefly and left this thought, "Look forward and give. courage, Look back and give thanks'. Mrs. Whetham, Conference Pres. spoke and told a story, How to be your own best friend. Each of us must have a fire in our ' hearts to direct us. She also paid tribute to Dr. Harriet Christie, who had been sect"y of Church De- velopment at United Church headquarters, and had recently passed away. Following the offering, Mrs. Wellman gave a resume of the Great Cele- bration which is to take place at Conference on May z5 in Peterborough Memorial Centre in commeration of the 50th Anniversary of the United Church.
