S'Entrdider - Serve One Another Leslie Weatherhead, the great preacher of City Temple, London, England, told the story of a sixteen-year-old girl who lay dying in a large city hospital. Her par- ents had died and she had literally exhausted herselfcaring for her orphaned brothers and sisters. fIer face was lined with the weight of responsibility. Her han- ds showed the strain of mianual work. One day she received a visitor who asked about her religious standing. Had she been confirmed? No. Had she been bap- tized? No. Had she at- tended church? No, she had neyer had time. The visitor expressed visible distress.. "What will you do," she asked,' "when you die and have to tell God that? " In a voice that was almost a whisper, the dying girl answered, "I shaîl show him my hands. " This coming Sunday marks the beginning of The Week of Prayer For Christian Unity. The theme chosen for this year's observance is "Serve One Another. " The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity has been obs erved for many years. In 1935 Abbe Paul Couturier broadened the concept of the Octave of Prayer which had been observed by the Roman Catholic Church. The World Council of Chur- ches, Geneva, and the Secretariat for Unity in Rome have jointly spon- sored this special week for several yearâ. In Canada, a Committee of the Joint' Working Group of the Canadian Council of Churches and the Canadian Conferen- ce of Catholic Bishops adapts the material provided by the Geneva- Rome Committee. In the past, and, to some extent today, denominationalism and sectarianism have fragmented the church. Creeds, dogma, and stilted biblical inter- pretation have short- circuited Christian unity. There are those who will segregate themselves off into pious pockets of biblical introspection, excluding anyone who does not subscribe to their tun- nel-type beliefs. There is no place in Christianity for separation, disunity, and fragmentation in the name of Christ. There are differences of opinion. However, we must neyer forget that we strive for the same goal, Jesus Christ ,our Lord. Paul Smith of Peoples' Church', Toron- to, expressed it well when he spoke of the un- timely death of AI Forrest, Editor of The United Church Obser- ver. In essence he said, "we talked almost daily, on many things we disagreed, but we were together, brothers in Christ. I shall miss him. " "Serve One Another." Let us go forward in the Week of Prayer in this mmnd, offering our Christian service for the benefit of ail and leaving our doctrinal differences to God's judgement.
