pit of the sanctuary. The room is
well lighted, and complete educa
tional facilities are included in the
building. The building committee

Mitchell and Perry designed and
constructed the steeple.
World Day Of Prayer
(continued from page 1, first sec.)
Day of Prayer in Boone is Mrs.
Howard i. Williams.
Seventy-five years have passed
and the observance has gathered
the faithful on all of the earth's
far-flung continents and distant
lands. On February 17, as the
day rises west of the international
date line, on the island of Tonga,
Queen Salote will call her people
to their tryst with God. As the
sun travels in the sky and the day
grows older, from other islands,
from mountain hamlets, from lone
ly plains and verdant valleys, from
noisy cities and from millions of
firesides, more and more prayers
will rise to strength the upward
thrust until, in the far north, at
the top of the world, the Christians
on St. Lawrence Island in the Ber
ing Sea will add their amen to the
great universal chord.
In America more than 22,000
communities hold special services.
Millions of men, women and chil
dren will join in the same prayer
of thanksgiving, repentance, and
appeal for a peaceful world that
is being voiced simultaneously in
Europe, Asia, Africa and Latin
America. Services are held in
schools, hospitals, department
stores, banks, factories and prisons
as well as in churches and ca
thedrals. Governors and mayors
issue special proclamations citing
the World Day of Prayer. Entire
communities participate as church
es ring church bells, and factories
and fire departments sound their
sirens.
Each year United Church Wo
men seeks out Christian leaders in
different lands to prepare the serv
ice. This anniversary service based
on the theme, "Forward Through
the Ages," was prepared in the
United States by Sue Weddell,
former associate general secre
tary, Division of Foreign Missions,
National Council of Churches.
As prayers rise around the
world in sixty languages and more
than one thousand dialects, there
will be a complete band of prayer
encircling the earth. Some who
pray cannot read; some will be
hungry or cold; others will have
all the material comforts that
wealth provides.
The World Day of Prayer draws
in its wake gifts that are material
as well as a dedication of the
spirit. The offerings are equally
divided between projects of the
Divisions of Home and Foreign
Missions, National Council of
Churches. Were it not for these
World Day of Prayer offerings, the
interdenominational ministries in
the U. S., Alaska, and Puerto Rico
would be curtailed, as would the
extensive educational, medical and
religious work around the world.
When the World Day of Prayer
celebrates its Diamond Jubilee this
year marking seventy-five years of
unbroken observance, one of the
goals is an offering of $790,000 for
the regular on-going projects and
for two anniversary specials. The
one is a massive literature pro
gram for the new Africa, with a
Christian training center for Afri
can writers, the production of half
a-million books written by Africans
for Africans, and the first stage of
a co-ordinated program of training
African wrjgprs in the special tech
niques of radio script writing. The
other "70th" special is a creative

mission in Alaska, our newest
state. Here specialists in church
planning and social welfare will
assist Alaska's growing churches
to develop a sense of community
and a basic correlated strategy of
Christian ministry and witness.
To further emphasize the anni
versary celebration, Prayer Fellow
ships are being organized in every
part of the world. Women will
come together *to meditate upon
the power of prayer, to share a
Biblical study of God's action with
in history, to consider the crucial
problems of their own geographi
cal area, to discover how God is
at work in the midst of these
problems and to seek His aid in
finding solutions for them and to
pool their spiritual and material
efforts in a great drive for truly
Christian action.
Thus from the silent prayer of
each individftl, to that of com
munities gathering in a place of
worship on February 17, to the
Prayer Fellowships meeting on be
half of huge geographical areas,
the united effort of Christians to
find God's purpose for this world
will come full circle. Everyone can
be a part of this fellowship, wher
ever he is, on Friday, February 17.

for the agency, needed to help
draw an accurate picture of how
others see the United States.
