RUSSELL HENDERSON- “The Harvest is great, but the laborers are few.” Sunday was a rainy day in Henderson, so much so that the congregations < and the church schools were curtailed in attendance. The writer attended Church School in the smallest AME Zion Church located in Hend erson, near his home. To his amazement, many children were gathered there in mass numbers waiting for instruc tors, but only one came. Our children are longing for spirit ual rood, but the laborers quail fied to give this food are short, and many of them that can are not willing to make the sacri fice and go in these less fortu nate places and share their spiritual food. Some authorities in the field of sociology say, “Crime is on the Increase in our country. Statistics of the National Coun sel of Churches show a larger increase of members at the present time than in previous years. We have more trained leaders today than at any other time. We have finer church buildings today than at any o ther time. Our higher institu tions of learning are sending more students out than they have in the past., With ail or our edu cation, with all of our reli gion, with all of our fine church es, and crime is on the in crease.” Then, ! vondei and raise the question, “What are the churches doing? Have they stopped saving souls and gone looking for loaves and fish es?” In 1957, a man by the name of Fife began working with university students and I quote here what he says, “U --niversity students today live in a spiritual vacuum. - ’ That is nothing in them. Mr. Fife fur ther says, “In ten years, these same students will be running our churches, our schools and universities and television pro grams above all our country. May I speak about the needs of our children, their neglect, their important and their po tential. They are people, who, in many cases, have become completely disillusioned with almost everything they have touched. I agree with Mr. Fife when he says, that “Our children live in a vacuum. Their need is a personal need. The need that can be met only by Jesus Christ. They need Jesus Christ. God wants them. Jesus Christ died for them. They are part of our commission to make dis ciples of all the nations God created man for Himself, and our hearts are restless until they find rest in Him. CHAPEL HILL BY MRS. CARRIDENE STUBBS CHAPEL HILL—Mr. Henry C.
