The missionaries, represent- ing the varlous pro- testant churches, met to discuss their work and to enjoy mutual fellow- ship. They concluded their conference by tak- ing communion in ,a service presided over by an Anglican Bishop. They ail departed, filled with the warmth and joy of sharing the sacra- mental elements to- gether. However, when word of this happening reach- ed the Bishop-,of Zanzi- bar, he sent a protest to the Archbisbop of Canterbury. It was im- mediately referred to a Commission. The mem- bers of that august body studied the details of the situation, reflecting upon their learned knowledge of tbeologic- ai doctrine. The report was wittily summarized by the late Bishop Bell as follows: "The Com- mission tomes to the conclusion that the ser- vice at Kikuyu was eminently pleasing to God, and must on no account be repeated." This littie anecdote causes us to reflect on the ,denominational d ivisions and disunity that have plagued the Christian cburch rlght from the first century down to today. The Apostie Paul spent' much of bis energy and time dealing with the divided state of tbe emerging 'church. Tbe church at Corinth was split up into fac- tious sects and parties.

The word he used for this unity was a medical term which was used for the knitting together of bones that had been fractured. Robert McClure, the noted Canadian medical missionary who served many years in China, could neyer accept, the fact that he was not allowed to take com- munion in some of the mission churches because of difference in denomination. It is his belief that 'lit was more effective to, live the spirit of Christianity than it was to preaeh tbe doctrine of it."' While denominational differences provide a choice in doctrine and manner of worship, they must not prejudice us against sharing in the most intimate moments of Christian worshlp. If we are to be ambassa- dors of Christ reconcil- ing the world to God, we must be willing to be reconciled 'one to another. The World Develop- ment and Relief Fund, a joint ef fort by five major Canadian de- nominations, is evi- dence of -this reconcilia- tory spirit. This fund provides financial help and incentive to dis- b Keuertnb Peter 3lonez world. Next week bas been declared The Week of Prayer For Christian Unity by the Canadian Council of Churches. Citizens from shore to shore are encouraged to worship together. To rise above our denominational differ- ences in a unified wit- Unity may also help resolve our striving for national unity in Canaàda today.
