Mems Work in the Local Church


church; To win them for God in
Christ and his Church and to
guide them IN their growth to-
ward Christian manhood and a
high churchmanship; to encou-
rage the members of the League
10 become a friend and counselor
to them. and TO include them in
significant activities of the or
ganization through which they
may achieve sense OF s,gnili-
canoe as a part of the organized
manpowei Of the local congrc-
CATION.
This committee will be ex-
pecied 10 prepare programs for
two OF the general meetings of
the League during the year and
should arrange for the pariici-
patton of some boys in them.
II will also be expected TO CO.
operate with the Program Vice
President in this matter.
s.-Christian Social Service
and Action
The purpose OF this committee
is 10 enlist the members of the
organization in the relief of sick.
ness and poverty. the Deepen.
dency Of children and the aged
the delinquency of youth. hu.
man suffering and want. intol-
GRANGE and racial strife. and Ia
promote the removal OF the
causes of these conditions: tc
inspire and encourage tn
League to take an. active part
in the support OF community
serving organizations. charitable
institutions and local and ma
tional community fund drives: tc
foster in the organization vital
and active interest in a ministry
10 the sick at home and in hos
pitfalls and to the imprisoned: Il
guide the organization in iniclli-
gent and effective social action.
and 10 promote community
program Of health. consumer
and workers education.
In this committee should be-
organized permanent Sick and
Welfare subcommittee which
will be directly responsible for
encouraging the men Of the
League to visit the hospitals.
jails. homes for the aged. the
blind and the orphan; and TO
promote the happiness and COM
fort OF such unfortunates.
The Committee on Christian
Social Service and Action will
be expected to prepare programs
for two general meetings during
the year. and to cooperate in
this matter with the Program
Vice-President.
The chairmen OF these areas OF
work should have the privilege
of requesting certain men in the
League for membership on their
committee. These requests should
be made. however, out of the
knowledge that the men request
ed have special interest in the
area in which they viii be ex-
pccted to serve.
On the other hand, il should
now be amiss for members OF
the League to state their pref
erence as to the area in which
they would like TO serve. Here
again the preference should be
on the basis of vital interest and
ability and not the personality
Of tho chairman OF the area of
work OF that Of friend who
happens to be assigned 10 the
urea.
II the men will appreciate the
important thing is to promote
The program OF the church
through the League and not the
personal desires Of the members
)f the work will be effective
and efficiently carried on. And
heir reward in terms Of group
achievement will be the greater
md more satisfying.
