Students To Attend Conference

ACROSS CAMPUS:

'N

By CAROLE REGAN

Thirty-eight students from vari-
ons religious groups on campus
will attend the 18th Ecumenical
Conference on the Christian World
Mission from Dec. 27-Jan. 2 at
the University of Ohio.
The conference, sponsored by
the National Student Christian
Federation, will deal with the role
of the church in the modern
world., Problems to be discussed
by the 3,000 participating students
include racial tensions, the Com-
munist movement, and the resur-
gence of nascent religions and
militant non-Christian faiths.
Among the leaders of the Con-
ference will be Bishop Lesslie New-
bigin and The Rev. Dr. Martin
Luther King. Bishop Newbigin, of
the United Church of South In-
dia will give the daily Biblical
exposition.
King To Speak
Martin Luther King, who led
the bus boycott in Montgomery,
Ala., will discuss racial tensions.

Study groups on all campuses
involved have been meeting regu-
larly to prepare for the Athens
Conference. The study groups here
were formed in October and have
met regularly ever since.
Each group was formed so as to
be inter-racial, inter-religious, and
inter-cultural. Almost half of the
University students going are from
foreign countries.
There will be opportunities at
the conference for both formal and
informal discussion by the dele-
gates. Nationally and internation-
ally known figures will speak and
lead discussions on the role of
the mission today.
To Hold Discussions
Fireside discussions will be held
each evening to talk informally
about current problems confronted
by the church in the modern
world
Entertainment also will be both
fonnal and informal. There will be
an international choir formed to
assist with worship services.

Each afternoon during the "Fes-
tival of Nations" students will
demonstrate music and song of
their countries. At the opening
session on Dec. 27, a drama, "The
Sign of Jonah" will be presented
under the direction of Robert Sea-
ver, who directed it in New York
City
Duerksen To Attend
Harold Duerksen of the Office of
Religious Affairs is the Conference
coordinator at the University.
Nancy Prime and Gary Zilm are
attending from the Congregational
Disciples, Karin Lanchester from
the Methodist Center, and The
Rev' Dr. Henry Yoder of the Lu-
theran Chapel. Amber Van, coun-
selor at the Protestant Foundation
for International Students, and-
Duane Lanchester, seminary in-
tern at the Office of Religious
Affairs, are also attending.
Three staff members are going
from the Presbyterian Student
Fellowship, Raja Nasr, William
Baker and Patricia Pickett.
