The new library building will

This location was approved in

The general theme for the 17th
biennial convention of the UL»CA
which met October 4-12 in Des
Moines, Iowa, was “For Christ
ian Leaders Tomorrow” — The
convention church was the beaut
iful building of St. John’s Luther
an Church, one of the largest
congregations of the ULCA. Con
vention sessions were held in
KRNT Radio Theater where the
mammoth stage met every need.
The seating capacity is 4200 per
sons. Shining letters above the
stage proclaimed the theme—
which theme was carried over
from the CHEY Appeal.
The state of Iowa claims the
highest literacy rate of the U. S.
A. While 67 percent of Iowa’s
population is unchurched; eight
percent (216,420) is Lutheran.
This membership including many
Lutheran groups is the
Protestant constituency in
state. In the convention city of
Des Moines there are 18 Luther
an congregations which represent
eight different Lutheran Church
bodies. ULCA membership is
4147 of the 9000 Lutherans within
the city.
Convention delegates in at
tendance numbered 592—300 pas
tors and 292 laymen. Six af
filiated churches were represent
ed by 11 delegates and two ob
servers attended from constituent
synods. In addition to the con
vention roll of 606, it is esti
mated that approximately 3000
persons attended as visitors. The
hospitality of Des Moines Luther
ans was made evident by the ex
tensive entertainment provided
for delegates and visitors.
Thankfully and unitedly the
delegates knelt in St. John’s
Church to celebrate the Sacra
ment of the Altar at the first
convention gathering. President
Franklin Clark. Fry. preached up
on “Stewards of the Mysteries
of God.’’
Delegates and visitors were
guided in worship at the begin-
ing of each business session of
the Convention by the Conven
tion Chaplain, Dr. Paul R. Roth,
Dr. Roth’s mature Christian test
imony was a fountain of spiritual
uplift, and these meditations and
prayers are to be publisher to all
ULCA pastors and lay-d el ©gates.
Maestro Guisepper Moschettl was
organist.
On Sunday morning ULCA
pastors spoke in fifteen local
Lutheran churches and Sunday
afternoon the choirs of Carth
age College, Midlland College,
and St. John’s Church sang at
the Mass Meeting on “Men for
the Ministry.”
The Foreign Mission’s Night
program presented messages by
overseas leaders—and at this ser
vice six missionaries were com
missioned *or services.
Dr. Paul E. Scherer, New York
City, addressed the closing ses
sion on “The Grace of God—In
Vain”? He said, “The Gospel
has to do with a Person and a
Will and a Deed not only done
but being done. The Gospel
means something, too, about es
tablishing a fellowship. To be
kind and considerate is not
enough. It Is the holy love of
God which tries to find its way
out through us.”
The report of President Fry
commenting extensively upon the
relationships of the ULCA to
other church bodies forcast ac
curately an area in which un-
proecedented action was taken
by the convention. As over
whelming majority of delegates
agreed with the proposed consti
tution of the National Council of
the Churches of Christ in the
United States of America \that
“in the Providence of God the
time has come when it seems
fitting more fully to mainfest
oneness in Jesus Christ as Divine
! Lord and Saviour by the crea
tion of an inclusive cooperative
agency of the Christian churches
of the United States of America”
—and the convention voted that
the ULCA becomes a full mem
ber of NCCCUSA.
The Women’s Missionary So
ciety told that 92,000 women con
tributed $1,410,351 during the
Biennium. This auxiliary is
grateful for the success of its
“Venture in Faith” which sub
stituted free-will giving for a
system of apportioned dues.
One of the most thoroughly
discussed reports was that of the
Board of Pensions and Relief
which recommended the adoption
of ( a Family Protection Plan for
in^pibers of the Contributory
7 Plan. The plan will be-
operative when 75 percent
of the Contributory Pension
members enroll.
Total opposition to establishing
diplomatic relations with the
Vatican was registered by the
adoption of the following reso
lution: ‘*That The United Luther
an Church In America in conven
tion assembled emphatically reaf
firm its belief in the absolute
separation of Church and State
and record its unalterable op
position to the establishment of
any kind of diplomatic relations,
or resemblance thereto, between
the United States Government
and the Vatican or any other
religious group.”
Those attending the Conven-
vention from Newberry and vicin
ity were: Dr. James C. Kinard,
Rev. Miles T. Cullum, Rev. C. J.
Rice, and Mr. C. C. Liomlnick as
official delegates, Rev. Paul E.
Monroe, Jr., Rev. Grady L. Co
oper, and Rev. L. H. Jeffcoat as
visitors. The Synod of S. C. had
eight ministers and eight lay-
members as official delegates to
gether with seven visitors.
