We must think of the Stew- ardshilp of prayer. time, money and if e. We must do more than believe in Stewardship. we must practice it. The temptation to let the content of life subvert the intent assails us constantly. The belief that our re- sources should be placed at the ser- vice of religion is as old as history. A tithe is of value only as the right motive is behind it. The motive and not the method concerned Jesus greatly.

If was a working conference. noi just a series of inspirational ad- dresses. There were sixteen sections, eigtht workingz one weck -eiLpht the next. It was a marvellous opportun- if y for groups to get fogether. Re- Presentafives f rom ail Africa, for in- stance. were toLgether for the firsi time.

The church's faihure, the personal faihure and the failure of the cliurch corporate was fthe problemn that the conference considered. "If is 2,000 years since Christ came f0 the worhd to brinff peace and look af if today," Mdrs. Taylor demanded. "i is 50 filhed with pettiness and worldliness that the face of Christ can hardly ce seen in us. Wliat is Wrong?

Mrs. Taylor stressed the glorions Eellowship found et the great gath- erinR where flie people of ail races were one wifhout any preliminaf because they had one common pur- Pose and one common Leader. Al-: though the delegates did not ahways agree on every point there Was not a rift of dissension. Mrs. Taylor was impressed by the vitalitv of the Young churches in the East and she aftribufed if fo the f acf f bat fbey are witnessing churches. The cburcb, she. said. does riot exist f0 take permanent care of hereditary Christians; if exists to vreach the Gospel. The question is flot Am I Saved? but Arn I Saving?

"If was a miracle thaf we were at the conference et aIl with the worhd as if was. a miracle that we had fellowship with representatives of such warrinz factions meeting to- zet ber. We were conscious- that if God's Kinordom was slow in coming if was nof God's fault but the f ault of our failure." Miss Rav Lee sang "The Ohd Rug- Red Cross."
