‘Rev. Reed :

ence to scripture regarding
this, and who reminds us that
sexuality is truly a gift from
God—albeit a gift which a de-
praved society is exploiting.
We look forward to “Pulpit

freshing insight into the Chris-
tian way of life. Keep up the
good work, Pastor

Every year, some 5 million
children die before their first

cholera. For those who suffer *

“weaknesses are almost, unen-
durable miseries while they last

plight of perhaps a third of-the
world’s children—the saddest,

beings can be ‘exposed.

phone book for the UNICEF
office nearest you,

Last year, one-quarter of a
million Canadian adults and
over 1,000,000 Canadian chil-
dren were involved in the work

of UNICEF, the United Nations: .

Children's Fund. When UNI--

CEF Canada began 21 years

* ago, volunteers raised a rela-

tively modest sum of $15,000.
This year, volunteer efforts
raised over $3,000,000. This
money. was put to work pro-
viding safe water projects in
Bolivia, the Maldives, Mozam-
bique, Ethiopia and the Cape
Verde Islands.

* Still hesitant about helping
UNICEF? Put yourself in the
place of a mother, hearing the
anguish of a thirsty child,
knowing that the water she
gives her son could mean his
death. Then pick up the phone
and call UNICEF. Your help is
