He wrote to the captives, sending his message via two ambassadors on their way to Nebudchadnezzar from miah 29:1-3.

(CP)--One of the largest Lutheran groups in Canada may become indepen- dent of its United States parent body by 1965. The possibility, raised at this year's triennial convention of the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod in Cleveland, will be the object of a poll among members of the Lutheran Church-Canada during 1964. If two-thirds of the 85,000 Ca- nadian members vote in favor independence may be achieved within a year. Opponents of the proposal feel it would split the church; others stress it could lead to union with other Lutheran bodies in Canada. Rev. Philip L. Fiess of Strat- ford, president of the Lutheran Church-Canada Ontario district, says nationalism is a factor that cannot be ignored in the issue. "But as Christians we also recognize that nationalism is not a good thing. It sets nation against nation and people against people. We only have to Lutherans Study Independent Idea look at Europe, Africa or Asia to see what an evil uncontrolled nationalism can be." CANADIAN UNITY SEEN Rey. Arthur Eissfeldt, pastor of St. Paul's Lutheran Church here, agreed. "I don't see the reason for an independent church. My own roots go down deep with the Missouri Synod, I'm 68 years old now and I'd like it to re- main as it is." Rev. H. H, Erdman, execu- tive secretary of the Ontario district and vice-president of the Lutheran Church - Canada, said the proposal does not stem from a purely nationalistic out- look. "This is not a question of throwing off the Yankee yoke," he said. Autonomy could even- tually lead to discussion with other Lutheran groups in Can- ada with a long-term view to one integrated Lutheran church in Canada. At present, there are three main bodies, he said, all with 245 Simcoe St. S. | SIMGQE PENTECOSTAL CHURCH Pastor; REV, Rk. A.
