"About 4,000 peoplé ig this ~ preshytery. are just going along for the ride," declared Thomas A. Knott, field secretary of the church's Stewardship . Services Department, speaking at presbytery in Minden this week, Mr. Knott said that in 1971, the church is down half a million dollars in its mission and Service Fund across the nation, which will seriously ~ curtail some work within Lindsay and neighboring presbyteries. Many people, he said, support the local work of their own church, but never give a penny toward outreach, and thus are hitch-hikers. Acknowledging that h~ was "treading on hollowed ground", Mr, Knott suggested' that many charges have large bequests "lying fallow" and helping no. one. He urged: such charges to take a good hard " widespread look at world needs, and then -at their own stewardship attitudes. "It takes $145 now to do thie work' $100 did in 1965," he said.. He saw the church's role today as especially critical in. an éra of pornography, drug abuse, and the break- down ~~ of reasonable authority... However, the church's base must be broadened, he declared, pointing out that 96 percent of the church's income is spent on the -English- speaking nine percent of the world. "Our biggest difficulty," he said, 'is lack of en- thusiasm for the things we profess to believe. We must remember that God's ministry is a ministry of interruption always being interrrupted by people with needs."
