These Convocations will be held in two hundred leading cities across the nation, and will draw some of the ablest church leaders and speakers in the country. "Teams" of speakers will include prominent pastors, missionaries, lay men »ad women, $nd .executives. ' "In fe'tfnte or Chfni^ l^e alfel death struggle," says President Y. C. Yang of Soochow University, China, "it would seem natural that the whole country would be surcharged with war psychology. But the nation's leaders have not allowed immediate problems to crowd out the educational and moral development of those who will be the leaders in the future. They realize that China's greatest battle is to be fought in the realm of thought and faith. There is a new interest in religion and a greater appreciation of the spiritual values of life. China is earnestly seeking light and truth and a Christ who can save and redeei... Spiritually China's eyes are turning to X WNU Service) StZ God. Now the Christian church has its opportunity to show the Chinese that Jesus Christ is the Savior and Redeemer they need." The Board of Foreign Missions of the Presbyterian church in the U. S. A. reports that it now has a total force ot 1,189 missionaries. Of this number, 165 are on regular furlough in the United States, 97 have been evacuated to the United States because of war conditions, and 101 are on extended furlough but planning to return to mission work. On the several mission fields there are actually 836 missionaries today. They are in Brazil, Chile China, Chosen, Colombia, Guatemala, India, Iran, Iraq, Japan, Mexico, Philippines, Syria, Thailand; Venezuela and West Africa. '**' - • < Christianity and democracy must be practiced as well as believed iif they are to win the present world struggle, in the opinion of Mrs. J. W. Mills, vice-president of the Woman's Division of Christian Service of the Methodist church. In a recent address she said: "While we are hearing so much about the necessity for increased armaments, and all life seems to center on immediate things, our vision of the future is a|>t to be clouded. The world will be full of4 bitterness and hate. While woman must begin with self-discipline and self-sacrifice, she must stop with her self-adjustment, or her own home, or her own community, or her own nation. She must see the opportunity to set in mo* tion an ever-widening circle of friendship which-shall reach from her small home to the women 6f Asia." The Island of Amboina in the Dutch East Indies'--now appearing in the headlines of American newspapers for the first time--has had a Christian church for more than two hnudred years, long before coming under the control of the East India company. Since 1867 its religious life has been merged with that of the Church of India, and it has been independent of support from the Netherlands Missionary Society. The Protestant membership on Amboina in 1938 was 189,141. From that church have gone many missionaries and evangelists to nearby islands, especially to New Guinea and Halmahera. The Rev. Albert D. Stauffacher, D. D., pastor of the prominent Plymouth Congregational church in Lansing, Mich, has been elected Minister of the Missions Council of Congregational Christian churches in the United States. This new post will make him responsible for directing the promotional and field activities of the three principal "service agencies" of the Congregational denomination -- those dealing with foreign missions, home missions, and social action. His headquarters will be in New. York after June 1. A graduate of the University of Wisconsin and of the Evangelical Theological Seminary, Dr. Stauffacher held pastorates in Brawley, Cal^ and in Washington, D. C., before going to Michigan.
