Induct new United Church minister Rev. John D. Roundall, 57, was inducted as minister of the United churches in Greenbank and Seagrave at a short ceremony in Green- bank October 10. About 50 people were on hand to welcome the new preacher. Despite his maturity Rev. Roundall is a new minister with young ideas about the role of a church leader. Mr. Roundall spent most of his adult life as manager of a 3,000 customer inde- pendant telephone company. Ten years ago, when it became obvious that small companies would eventually all come under the wing of mother Bell, he began looking for a new career. For seven years he served as a lay reader for the United Church while taking correspondence courses from Queens University, and spending his summers studying at Pine Hills Bible Institute in the maritimes. He was ordained three years ago. Since then Rev. Roundall has served a mission charge in Denby, 'just east of Bancroft. Two of his grown up children, a boy and a girl, have stayed behind in Denby to finish the school year. His other son is a teacher in Ottawa. The new preacher does not believe that there is really any such thing as an, "un- churched," person, so he intends to visit every home in Greenbank as soon as possible. Even if all I do is say hi, he explains, the people will know that I am here, and the church is ready to help them if they ever need it. Rev. Roundall has already spoken to the organist, and will consult others in the church about livening things up a bit at Greenbank United. While acknowledg- ing that the gospel should be made to appeal to the intel- lect rather than merely to emotion, he says there is nothing wrong with emotion in moderate doses and the church should make more use of drama and modern music. If the congregation agrees WATER-REPELLENT ZI MR. AND MRS. JOHN D. ROUNDALL the hymnary and the ser- mon might take second place on occassion to modern gospel music and more dramatic presenta- tions of the church message. And there is nothing wrong with a little contro- versy in church either he says. If information on social or moral issues is called for Rev. Roundall will present the facts without being over concerned about whether the community agrees with the facts or not. "I wouldn't back away from a controversial subject, if I had the facts to present," he says. However, he points out, the church is not the place for politics as such. Sermons must be," Bible based," no matter what their theme. The church has been at the forefront of reform in the past, he thinks, and most of the improvements made by governments resulted from issues first raised by churches, "and not just the United Church." Rev. Roundall likes Greenbank. He was raised in a farming community an, "I like the rural areas," he said.
