EUGENE REGISTER-GUARD, Sat., April 13, 1963 Page 5A With National Student Christian Federation Representative 'Thinking Youth' Talks Topic By PEPPER BERKELEY Of lh. RestiterGuarl Young people who are thinking, believes Ann Finkle, "want to do some thing." And Miss Finkle, who works in New York City with the National Student Christian Federation, has a full port folio of projects for "think ing" youths. In Eugene this week to dis cuss her projects with Eugene-Springfield area students and ministers, Miss Finkle first suggests that a college church youth group send a delegate or delegates to the National Student Christian Federation Quadrennial Con vention in Athens, Ohio, which will be held during the 1963 Christmas vacation. The theme for the conven tion, she said, is "For the Life of the World," and the convention will bring togeth er some 3.000 American and foreign college students. The convention, she con tinued, will have students from virtually all Protestant denominations in the United States. At the convention, slated Dec. 26, 1963, to Jan. 2. 1964. the students will dis cuss world missions. "World mission," Miss Finkle feels, is especially im portant to the youth and col lege students in churches in the United States. She feels that the various summer projects of the Na tional Student Christian Fed eration emphasize "more and more, what is becoming to be thought of as the mission of the church that the church only finds its life in service to the world." When the church forgets this, she feels, "inbred insti tutionalism" comes to the fore and the inbred institu- tionalism" does not find fa vor with youth. Youths "who are thinking," Miss Finkle said, "do want to do something." They don't want "to be part of a sancti monious, huddled community a withdrawn community," she feels. Today, she said, there are several types of programs open to high school and col lege young people interested in "service to the world." These include: Work camps, summer study seminars and similar programs sponsored by the federation, by individual de nominations and by interde nominational groups. Long-term work pro grams, similar to the above, and open usually only to young people above high school age. Short-term missionary as- Jewish Passover An Ancient Rite By LOUIS CASSELS "Why is this night different from all other nights?" That question was asked in millions of Jewish homes last Monday evening. Tradition decrees that it be asked by the youngest son of the family. It is answered by the head of the family retelling the story of the Exodus the mighty, act of deliverance by which God brought the children of Israel out of bondage in Egypt. The question and answer are part of the Seder, a home worship service which opens the annual observance of the eight-day Passover season. That will end on Tuesday. The Seder is probably the oldest continually observed re ligious ritual in the world. It has been celebrated for more than 3,000 years. The service is built around a festive meal in which every dish has a symbolic significance. USE SPECIAL DISHES The Seder table is spread before dark, with the finest linens and best silver that the home can provide. Many families have special sets of dishes which are used only once a year, during the Passover. At sundown, the mother lights candles on the table, and all members of the family gather around. The head of the family opens the ceremony by raising a cup of wine, as in a toast, and pronouncing an ancient blessing: "Praised art Thou, o Lord our God, ruler of the universe, who hast chosen us from all people and singled us out from among men ... for Thy service." Altogether, four glasses of wine are drunk during the meal. They recall God's four promises to Moses that the Israelites would be freed from captivity. Other ingredients of the Seder feast include: . Matzoth, or unleavened bread, which is a reminder that the Israelites had to flee Egypt so hastily that they had no time to bake regular bread but were comoellcd to subsist on flat unleavened loaves sun-baked on desert rocks. Bitter herbs (usually a piece of horse radish) to recall the bitterness of a slave's life in Egypt. Charoscs, a mixture of apples, nuts, cinnamon and wine, which symbolizes the mortar which the Jews used to make bricks for the pharaoh during their days of captivity. SERVICE SPELLED OUT The order of the service, including prayers and lhanksgiv. ings used at various stages of the meal, is laid out in a book called the Haggadah. There are many versions of the Haggadah, but they differ only in details. The Haggadah emphasizes the importance of a sense of personal involvement in the great act of deliverance commem orated by the Passover. "In every generation," says one passage, "each Jew should regard himself as though he too were brought out of Egypt. Not our fathers alone, but us also, did the Holy One redeem; for not alone in Egypt but in many other lands, have we groaned under the burden of affliction and suffered as victims of malice, ignorance and fanaticism." Minister Calls First Results 'Encouraging' COTTAGE GROVE Re sponse to first meetings of a new Conservative Baptist church herejas called "very encouraging" Wednesday by the Rev. Louis B. Jackson. Jackson came to C o 1 1 a t e Grove in March to found the city's only Conservative Baptist congregation, now mteting on Sundays at the American Le gion Hall. Services on E a s t e r Sunday, Jackson said, will be held at regular worship hours at the hall: Sunday school at 9:45 a.m., morning worship at 11 a.m. and evening worship at 7 p.m. In addition, he said, prayer meetings on Wednesdays at 7 p.m. will begin this week,, and will be held at the Jackson home, No. 3 Foster Road (Rt. 1 Box 28) Cottage Grove. Jackson came to Cottage Grove from Hollister. Calif., where he served as interim pas tor for Calvary Conservative Baptist Church. signments, a program of a growing number of denomina tions. These programs, she said, offer missionary duty of some three years "without re quiring a lifetime commit ment" to missionary work. Some of the skills needed, she said, are teaching, agri culture, medical training and technical skills. This summer, Miss Finkle said, the federation is offer ing several programs for college-age students. One, she said, Is a voter registration project in Nash ville, Term. There, she said, participants' will cooperate with existing community groups, gathering information of aid to these groups and canvassing in a "voter apathy" area. The actual work part of the program, Miss Finkle said, will be supplemented by dis cussion groups and study of area and community prob lems. Participants in a project in Nantucket Island will find themselves in quite a dif ferent atmosphere, she said. Students in this program will be studying "the theology of the secular" during their stay on the island. Who is needed for work camps and similar programs? "First of all," Miss Finkle said, "a student who is will ing to work hard and who sees this work as service" is needed. The applicant, she continu ed, "should be interested in life and be able to participate in study and close group liv ing." "It can be one of the most tremendous experiences a col lege student can have," she said. Further information on the National Student Christian Federation, which is related to the National Council of Churches, is available in Eu gene at Christian House, 736 E. 16th Ave., Eugene.
