European Women Concerned
With Bible and Theology
Says Returning Traveler
Most European women have
more concern for the Bible and
theology than American wom
en, an American minister's wife
said recently, after visiting
women's church groups in Ger
man, Switzerland and France.
Mrs. Cynthia Wedel has been
visiting the organizations, while
her husband. Canon T. O. Wedel,
dean of the College of Preachers
of the Episcopal Church in
Washington, D.C., has been lec
turing at tne Ecumenical Insti
tute of the World Council of
Churches at Bossey in Switzer
land. Though European women gen
erally are more theologically
minded, Mrs. Wedel said. Amer
ican women probably are more
expert at organizing and doing
things. European church wom
en have n better understanding
of the World Council and what
it stands for, she added.

The difference in interests be
tween European and American
church women points up the
need for each group learning
from the other, Mrs. Wedel be
lieves. A mutual increase in
knowledge and understanding
can lead to greater cooperation,
she added.
"A more accurate picture of
one another is the first thing our
women's groups on each side of
the Atlantic need from their
coming together in the World
Council," Mrs. Wedel said. "Eur
opean women are eager about
the United States. Most of them
have exaggerated ideas about
the abilities of American wom
en. I find we are all very much
alike.
"To get to know each other,
we need many more visits to and
from with time to get acquaint
ed. We need more writing back
and forth vith descriptions of
our work and we need more
world-wide baring on occasions
like the Women's World Day of
Prayer. And, above all, we must
see that this cooperative endeav
or is not a 'women's problem,'
but a concern of all lay people."
On another subject, Mrs.
V.'rdel said the church and re
ligious organizations are the one
real and vital link left between
East and West Germany, partic
ularly in Berlin.
"There are close and warm
ties between churches in the
Russian sector of Berlin and
thoFe in Weft Berlin," she ex
plained. "At present, work is
proceeding without much obvi
ous interference with anything
that specifically is identified as
'church.' Church women in Ber
lin meet frequently for Bible
study and fellowship, one month
in the Eastern sector and the
next in the Western sector."
