Such was ~ the description of 'a minister given by Rev. Dr, R. W. Henderson, Associate Secretary, General Council, United Church of Canada spoke .to Lindsay Presbyterymeeting at Cam- bridge Street United Church, Lindsay, on Wednesday, Feb- ruary 21, 1968. 3 "The United Church has assigned the episcopal func- tion to the minister" said Dr. Henderson prior to group discussions on the import- 'ance and place of bishops in the Church! In the group discussions that followed Dr. Hender- son's opening remarks one of the main findings was that the role of the minister is changing. Other findings were that the change results from the fact that the church is. becoming more democra. tic as laymen, by training, RA 2 / / knowledge and experience, are increasingly better' able to give leadership in some areas of the Church's life and work than the minister. Increasing numbers of lay- men, due to a higher level of education * among the population in general, have a broader outlook and are better able to hold stronger informed opinions than was once the case. Delegating responsibility to others in some fields and no longer expected to be every- thing to everyone, or an au- thority on all subjects, the minister is yet looked upon as qne to start movements and to visit the sick, aged and shutins etc. Rev. J. Newton Reed, Sunderland, informed. the court that there were some four hun- dred less pupils in the Sun- day Church Schools of Pres- bytery in 1067 than there ed yellow was the school Mrs. Shunk went to, and was destroyed by fire on her birthday in J9%0.
