PAGE rTGWT Christian Work Camps Explained By Secrelary ai Tri'ity Y.P.U. The Trinity Y.P.U. meeting on Oct. 23 was unden direction of the Christian Fellowship Group. The Canvener. Ruth Robbins and Millie Hills conducted the wor- shîp service, the theme of whicb was: "The Path That We Choose." The guest speaker was capably introduced by Madelîne Wilcox. *Miss Pyfoamn is the Secnetary of *the Christian Work Camp Feloôw- sbip Board of Canada. She ex- plained first what this formidable titie means. The Board, af whîch sbe is Sccretary, organizes vol- unteer work camps. These are eomposed of people who believe mn giving a practical demonstra- tion af their Christian faith by giving belp ta any project which .needs their assistance. The oigin o! these camps dates back ta 1920 when a group o! European Pacifists decided ta * spend the. summer months in a Belgium village, helping ta re- construct what had been dcstroy- ed by war. At first, work camps wene under the direction of the Society o! Fniends, but the prac- tice soon sprcad until now tbey, 1are being encouraged by many 1different denominations. Two .years ago the World Council of 1Churches began experiments in .international work camps which Lhave proved very successful. Miss Pyfoam then outlined the type of work that has been done and is being done in Canada. 1Work camps have assisted stu- dent ministers in Muskoka mis- sion fields. by helping to build and paint churches and by hold- Ling Vacation Bible Classes, often teacbing children who have nev- er been in Sunday School before. There are also Summer Caravans. which are organized for young people who are willing to give from two to six weeks of their summer to this type of work. The slides wbich accompanied *Miss Pyfoam's talk were exceli- eUjt. She bad taken several photo- grapbs of the work being done by Y.P.U. groups at Camp Quin-Mo- Lac and at the Humber River Project where a work camp built two dams as their contri- bution towards the plan to check erosion.

Miss Pyfoam stressed the fact that ta a Christian work sbould be an act of wonship. One must 1 feel that he is doing bis work ta the glory of God and na wark camp is complete without its wor- sbip centre. Miss Pyfoam said that th~e experience which stands out mâ clearly in ber mind is that of9Mearing the Lord's Pray- er said in unison in four or five languages.
