MMMi ar.mw m-7r f VfTSMT 1 In tlteir search for truth "Chris tian young people will not be in timidated by witch hunts or Con gressional sub-committee investiga tions,'' Bishop John Wesley Lord, Boston.

"In an hour when truth is being dissolved it is vitally important that some segment of our society possesses a sure grasp of external verities," Bishop Lord said. "Chris tian youth has determined to dis cover the will of God and to live by it, and to follow fearlessly the truth as it is revealed through God's Holy Spirit." To fulfill these objectives today. Bishop Lord said. "Christian youth must possess the capacity to live in the thick of thin things, and learn to distinguish from the trivia and the trash of this age and that which i is true and essential." i Bishop Lord will speak at 11 a.m. I Friday and Saturday, and at the 11 a.m. public service Sunday in Junaluska Auditorium, and lead the youth dedication service Sun day night. | DEATHS EUGENE CHAPMAN Funeral services will be held in the West Canton Church of God Friday at 2 p.m. for Eugene Chap man, 36, of Candler, Route 3, who died Monday in an Indianapolis. 1 Ind., hospital after a brief illness.

Christianity Not Outdated, Youth Convocation Hears Christianity is not "sissy or old fashioned" nearly 900 delegates to a Southwide Methodist youth con vocation uncer way at Lake Juna luska were told at the opening session Wednesday night by James lones, Nashville. Tenn. "We must examine the charges that are leveled against us . . . 'hat Christianity is outdated and irrelevant, that it no lunger calls for heroic and sacrificial commit ment and has become a sissy ?hing," Jones said. The young keynote speaker is a ministerial student at Vanderbilt University. Nashville, and immedi ?te past president of the National Conference of Methodist Youth. "Too many of us live in tiny vorlds, bounded only bv our own , 'esires and interests." Jones said. "This convocation exists to open >ur eyes and to make us see, from a Christian perspective, the world <n which we live." He asked the delegates to look do'sely at the world, declaring: "We live in a world of poverty and we Americans are rich; we live in V warring world of bigger and bet ter bombs; we live in a world of discrimination, both racial and JAMESON JONES religious, where men distrust, fear ami hale each other." ?. ' i The best word to describe the tone of our time is "secular," Jones said, adding that "We place no importance on things of the spirit, and judge people by cars and clothes and bank accounts." He challenged the young people to "practice the principles of our faith and face the issues of our day?poverty, war. discrimination, delinquency becoming co-work ers with Christ in cleaning up the rubble of the world, making His life our code, His cross our creed."
