Church Services in Germany
Reviewed in Student's Letter
(Editor'i Note: David Frohnmarrr,
18-year-old ton of Mr. and Mn. Otto
Frohnmayer. 1SS Spring ii in
Germany this summer ai an exchange
ftudent under the American Field
Service program.
The Mail Tribune asked him before
he lert to write a series of articles
on his experience!, leveral of them
concerning churches and religion. Fol
lowing H one of bis letters concerning
mis item 01 ma aoroaa.j
Molln in Lauenburg, Ger
many A few weeks ago I at
tended the church here and
found the services quite interest
ing. The first thing which struck
me was the mag nificent and
elaborate interior of the church.
It had beautiful stained glass
windows and the colors were
very nice throughout. The sanc
tuary is quite the same as it was
400 years ago in the Middle Ages.
Another thing that was different
was the dress of the congrega
tion. Boys came in jeans and
lederhasen (the leather shorts
so popular in Germany) and I
saw very few Sunday suits. This
tj'pe of dress is due mostly to
the large number of hikers and
travelers among the young peo
ple who come into town to
church from the camping places
before continuing on their trips.
The service itself starts with
about one-half hour of organ
music and hymns. They sing quite
a lot in their church at least
five hymns with eight or nine
verses each. Sometimes the
choir and congregation alternate
verses. Scripture, e s p e c i a lly
from the Psalms, is read often
and several times the pastor
chanted invocations. The sermon
was quite formal and a bit more
academic than in our churches.
The pastor didn't talk to the peo
ple but talked more in the fash
ion of a lecturer. It was pernaps
similar to the Jonathan Edwards
type. I understood very little,
but was told by the family that
the sermon was good.
Church membership in Ger
many, unfortunately, has one
big drawback, and that is the
10 per cent added taxes which
church members must pay. This
is because the church and State
are not separate as In America,
and taxes support the church.
A "state church" is forbidden
by law but the Gov eminent
must perform certain services
to help the tvo churches. Church
membership Itself Is about equal
ly divided between Protestants
end Catholics. Northern Ger
many, where I am living is most
ly Protestant and Southern Ger
many is predominantly Roman
Catholic. The Jewish people, al
most wiped out by Hitler, are
beginning to return, but their
number is still very small.
As I reported before, the
young people have many dif
ferent opinions and beliefs. I
think that the war has given
many of the younger generation
a very materialistic view on
religion, and many times I have
run across strange views. How
ever, religion and belief in God
is often a topic of conversation
among the young people, and
In this way each individual de
velops and expresses his own
ideas.
Another reason for rejection
of the church by many teen
agers could very well be due to
the religious training. Every
Protestant teen-ager must have
his Confirmation and to pre
pare for it entails Iwo years.
The clergymen are often very
strict with their pupils and thus
many of the students develop a
dislike for it and all concerned
with the church.
Religion is also studied in
school with separate classes for
Protestants and Roman Cathol
ics. This is held twice weekly
for the nine years of high school,
and in It the history, teachings,
literature and philosophy of re
ligion are discussed. The pop
ularity of this class depends
mostly on the teacher. If he is
tolerant and encourages discus
sion, the class is liked very
much. If on the other hand, a
teacher forces his own ideas on
the students, one can easily see
why the church loses its appeal.

Methodist Men
Attend Assembly
Eight Methodist men of the
First Methodist church will at
tend the second annual Oregon
Methodist Men's assembly today
on the Willamette university
campus. More than 500 dele
gates are expected to attend.
Theme for the three day meet
ing will be the Layman's Re
sponsibility for Spiritual Life
with Dr. James S. Chubb of
Grand Island, Neb., resource
leader. Dr. A. Raymond Grant,
bishop of the Methodist church
in the Portland area, will deliver
the sermon at the Sunday morn
ing service at the Salem First
Methodist church.
Attending the assembly from
Medford are Dr. Eugene Ray,
local president of the group,
Charles H. Thompson Jr., John
Kent, Everett Faber, Dr. John
Dixon, Charles Adamson, Rob
ert Sage, and O. P. Taylor.
days, this will "wind up" the
series of articles I have written
from Molln. I would like to give
a general "summing up" with
a few of my thoughts.
Germany, today, as a repub
lie is once again taking a lead
ing place among the nations of
the world. Its astounding re
covery from the war is one of
the economic miracles of this
century (a fact for which United
States foreign aid can take
much credit).
It is very enlightening to be
seeing a foreign nation from the
inside rather than from a tour
ist's eyes. If a person thinks of
Germany as the place where
boys sit yodelling on a moun
tain top dressed in peaked hats
and old costumes with a wild
flower in one hand and a beer
mug in the other, he is mistaken
If he thinks of Germany now as
the place where 15 years ago
fanatic Nazi youth screamed
"Heil Hitler", he is equally mis
taken.
Since Molln is off the "beaten
track", only a handful of Ameri
cans have even seen it. Never
theless, to anyone contemplating
a European trip, Molln, in the
province of Schleswig-Holstem
is a must. I heard a fitting com
rr.ent from one of my friends
here. He told me, "I don't like
Molln, I love Molln".

Protestants
Discuss Church
Unity at Meeting
By LOUIS CASSELS
United Press Correspondent
Oberlin, Ohio (IP) Church
leaders said today the rites of
baptism and communion which
once figured prominently in the
splitting up of Christian denom
inations may now serve to draw
them together again.
A surprising degree of agree
ment on the two central sacra
ments of the Christian faith has
emerged at the Oberlin college
conference where 47 Protestant
and orthodox churches are now
seeking a basis for unity.
There are still some profound
differences among the churches
represented here about the
meaning .of baptism and the
Lord's supper. But many of the
doctrinal disputes which bitterly
divided Protestants of past gen
erations seem to have spent their
force.
Episcopal Bishop Stephan F.
Bayne of Seattle, Wash., who
presides over a conference sec
tion on the sacraments, said dis
cussions so far have disclosed a
"substantial measure of common
ground." The conference began
last Tuesday and will continue
through Sept. 10.
Two special reports on bap
tism were presented to the con
ferences today. One, by an in
terdenominational study group
from the Pacific Northwest, de
clared that remaining differences
are of "secondary importance."
"We have in baptism and the
Lord's supper a clear path to
Christian unity," this group said.
Another regional study group,
from churches in the Newark,
N. J., area, took the more cau
tious view that "In baptism we
have at least a partial realiza
tion of the unity we seek."
Both groups attached particu
lar importance to the fact that
virtually all Protestant and or
thodox bodies now recognize as
valid baptisms performed by
other denominations. Some Bap
tist churches are the notable ex
ception to this rule.
"Even the Roman Catholic
church," the Newark report not
ed, "may recognize the baptisms
of many Protestant churches,
providing it was done with water
and in the name of the Trinity."
