WHERE IS THE
FAMILY HEADED?
The family is a social
structure that is facing drast-
ie changes proposed by var-
ious voices in Canada today.

Some children’s rights
advocates are pushing for the
abolition of parental control
over their children. Some of
them desire legislation to
enable children to sue or
even divorce their parents.

Some want to be able to
bring in outside interference
into the family regardless of
the wishes of the children or
parents for almost any
reason. Some educational
leaders have implied or even
stated that all of the training
of children should be in the
hands of the school system
and that parents should give
up this role entirely.

as they wish into any mold
they desire?

Obviously, children are
not mature enough to make
such decisions regarding
their family life. In a fit of
childish anger or on adult
persuasion, children could
make decisions they would
probably regret the rest of
their lives, leaving them
filled with guilt. Also, who is
to say that adults outside of
the family situation are right,
no matter how well trained
they have been?

I question the idea of
letting the educational sys-
tem take over parental train-
ing and guidance. It has
failed to solve the problems
we now have and often seems
incapable of properly control-
ling the students it has in its
system as it is.

Moral and spiritual
values that needed to be
taught in the home are

virtually non: it, or at
least varied with the indiv-
idual teacher in the school
system.

‘Should tackle issues’

Biblical and theological
perspectives need to be
brought to bear on all phases
of life, says Rev. Sidney
Rowles of Kelowna, newly-
elected president of the
United Church Conference of
B.C.

“For example, in a re-_

cent involvement in the
Bates commission on urani-
um mining, the distinctive
contribution of the church
was to bring ethical and the-
ological analysis to bear on
the process and the concerns
involved.”

Interviewed after the
55th annual meeting earlier
this week of the B.C. Con-
ference which drew 613 del-
egates — representing al-
most 250,000 members and
adherents of the United
Church in B.C. — Rowles, 45,
said social concerns are 4
proper concern of the church,
whether of nuclear develop-
ment, unemployment, the
environment generally, or
growth of militarism.

Even if there is pain in
decision-reaching, the church
must opt for the activist roje,
according to Rowles, who
was among those picketting
the Kelowna campaign office
of Premier Bill Bennett to
protest uranium mining be-
fore the cabinet declared a
seven-year moratorium.

Conference delegates re-
iterated the church's call for
a moratorium on nuclear
development pending a thor-
ough study into all aspects
across Canada, he said.

Rowles, born in Em-
press, Alta., was educated in
Kelowna, at UBC and Union
Theological College. Or-
dained in 1962, he served
pastorates in Bralorne, Mer-
ritt and Trail. Seven years

Sees being
a Canadian
to his benefit

As a Canadian, Canon
David Tatchell is confident
he will escape a number of
prejudices and biases when
he begins a three-year stint
in Switzerland with the pres-
tigious World Council of
Churches (WCC).

“Because Canadians
have a pretty good repu-
tation in the international
community, I will be arriving
relatively unhindered by pre-
conceptions about both my
performance and my past,”
Tatchell said in an interview.
“I won't be facing the bias
against my nationality that,
say, an American or Russian
would face.

The rector of Christ
Church in Calgary for the
past 14 years, Tatchell has
been appointed to the direc-
torship of the WCC's sub-
unit on Christian renewal and
congregational development.

“My function is very
basic," he said. “It is what-
ever the WCC member
churches want me to do.”

WCC policy is set by the
assembly held every seven
years, the next being in
Vancouver in 1983. Some
3,000 delegates and another
2,000 observers are expected
to attend,

ago he became area staff

No, there must be a
better answer to solving
family problems. God insti-
tuted marriage as a sacred
union, Children that were to
follow were a blessing to the
home. “Lo, children are a
heritage of the Lord: ...
Happy is the man that hath
his quiver full of them.”

Parents were command:
ed to train up their children
by the Lord, giving them the
full responsibility for their
children’s training. To par-
ents, God says, “Train up a
child in the way he should go:
and when he is old, he will
not depart from it.”

God also commands the
children to “Honor your
father and your mother.” If
followed, the family would be
on the right track. Remem-
ber, we are not dealing with
things, but with precious
lives, These children’s lives

are valuable before God and -

are -not something to be
abused or treated lightly.
The Right to Life As-
sociation acknowledges this
as they plan a Prayer Vigil at
the Trail Regional Hospital
on May 26 at 2 p.m. The lives
of children and parents, if

guided by God's Word, the -

Holy Bible, will find fulfil-
ment and enrichment that no
other ar can prod-

anagan Presbytery, a post he
still holds. His. wife Mary

The FAMILY — it is one
of God's highest priorities;
let's keep it together.

Formation of a Lutheran
Church — Canada was unani-
mously approved at the re-
cent Alberta-B.C. District
convention of the Lutheran
Church-Missouri Synod in
Calgary, with work to begin
immediately on drawing up a
constitution.

A founding convention
could take place as early .as
the fall of 1982, fulfilling a
dream of more than 20 years
for an indigenous Canadian‘
church, according to Rev.
Theodore E. Reiner, com-
munications director of Con-
cordia College.

The constitution will be
submitted to the three Can-
adian districts — Alberta-
B.C., Manitoba-Saskatche-
wan, and Ontario — for
approval which, at the earli-
est, would come by the
spring of 1982, said Reiner.

DEAR DR. GRAHAM: I am nine years old, and I would
Uke to know how to be a good person.

- 8.0.

DEAR §S.0.: I am thankful you want to be a good person,
You are old enough to know that not everyone is good — in
fact, there are a lot of people in the world who are not very
good. But God wants you to be a good person. The Bible says, .
“A good man obtains favor from the Lord” (Proverbs 12:2).

How can you be a good person? The place to begin is to
realize that you cannot be truly good without God's help. In
fact, the Bible tells us that by nature we are not good. That
does not mean we are all completely evil; a person may be
good most of the time.

But God is perfect, and no matter how good we are we
still are very imperfect. This is what the Bible calls sin — our
failure to do good in God's eyes. Like everyone else, you need
to be forgiven of your sins by God — and God wants to forgive
you. Have you ever invited Jesus Christ to come into your
life? He loves you, and He died on the cross to take away your

sins, Furthermore, He is alive in heaven today, and by His,
Spirit He wants to come into your heart. I hope you will invite
Him into your life today. 2

- Then ask God to help you each day to live as He wants

you to live, How does God help you? For one thing, He shows _

you what is right and what is wrong. He does this in the Bible,,
which is His Word. It is important for you to learn the Bible

both in your church and in your own reading.

There may be some things in it you may not understand.
right now — but don't worry about that. Ask God to help you
understand the parts that are important to you right now, and.
apply them to your life. God gave us the Bible for several.
reasons, one of which is “training in righteousness” (2,
Timothy 3:16). ‘ ‘

Ask God also to help you find friends who will help you,
instead of ones who will not encourage you to be good.,

“Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the.

wicked ... But his delight is in the law of the Lord” (Psalm
1:1-2),

The excitement of pulling the

of your picturctaking is hard
to match.

Hard to match, that is,
unless you have joined the
