SUNDAY SPEAKER John C. Stille will speak 4 MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Of. - A Friday, May 1, 1959 Retreats Held By Laymen May Double in Year Washington -(UPD- Shortly before 5 o'clock last Friday afternoon, four officials of the U. S. State Department left their offices in Washing ton, got into a car and drove to -a secluded old house on the banks of the Potomac about 10 miles south of the city. They were joined there by similar groups from- the De fense Department, Congress and other government agen cies - 20. men in all. They spent the entire week end in the old house. A spy peeking through the unguarded windows could have seen them engaged in long, earnest conversations. But if a foreign agent did get wind of this rendezvous, he can relax. t, The government officials were not talking about high strategy. They were talking about the Christian faith and its relevance to their lives. Their meeting was a "retreat" conducted by the noted Quak er philosopher, Dr. Elton Trueblood. Growing Fast Week end retreats for lay men are a relatively new and increasingly important aspect of U. S. religious life. More than 1,000 organized retreats were conducted in this coun try last year. And the move ment is growing so rapidly the number easily may double this year. This trend is heartening to Dr. Trueblood, former re ligious director of the U. S Information Agency who now serves as professor of phil osophy at Earlham college, Richmond, Ind. The retreat movement is one of the most genuine fea tures of the current religious revival," he said in an inter view. "It is capturing the in terest of laymen from coast to coast. It seems to meet a deeply felt need of contemp orary Christians." Need To Reflect Trueblood pointed out that retreats are not a modern in vention. Jesus conducted fre quent retreats for his disciples. He taught that even good works, such as healing the sick, must be laid aside occa sionally to withdraw from the world for a period of prayer, study arid meditation. Modern Christians, especial ly men and women who are carrying heavy responsibili- billties, particularly need this kind of spiritual refreshment according to Trueblood: "People today are so caught up in the immediacies of life that they have little chance to reflect on the ultimates," he said. "Tfiey need . to get away from everyday pres sures from home and busi ness and the telephone - long enough to take their bearings. "The purpose of a retreat is to deepen your life both in tellectually and spiritually so that you can go back and per form your daily work more adequately. It gives you a chance to see . who you are and where you are going, and why.". Training Awards To Be Given Here Christian Service Training awards are to be presented during a closing assembly of the Sunday school at the First Church of the Nazarene Sun day. During the year 15 dif ferent classes on teacher training and Bible study have been offered and a total of 180 persons have received credits for the classes. Mrs. Lowell Shepard and Mrs. Arnold Kornstad have completed 12 classes and will receive second certificates of progress. The following have completed four classes and will receive first certificates of progress, William Brew ster, Ruth Goble, Ella Her man, Ruth Holmes, Mrs. R. W.

Nursery care will be provid 1957 Award ot Merit Winner Ministers Have Problems Too, Recent Survey Shows By LOUIS CASSELS United Press International If you could take a close-up look at your minister's pri vate life, what would you find? You'd find that he has many worrisome family prob lems - and that most of them are caused, unintentionally, by parishioners who expect too much of him. A revealing glimpse into the "off-stage" life of the typi cal Protestant clergyman is provided by a survey just completed by the Office of Family Education Research of the United Presbyterian church: .It covered nearly 2, 800 Presbyterian ministers, chosen at random from all parts of the country. Their biggest personal head ache is too little time at home. Family Life Suffers Church and community ac tivities make such exorbitant demands on the average min ister's time that he has little left over to spend with his Child Evangelism Representatives Attend Meeting Among valley persons who will attend the regional Child Evangelism conference in Se attle, Wash., May 4 through 8 are several local directors of the program. They include Mrs. Nina Gain, Medford director; Mrs, D. E. McClurg, Phoenix: Mrs. John Hughes, Ashland; and Mrs. Jesse Flenner. and Mrs. Cecil Heard, both Medford. .' The conference, held bien nially, is attended by CE rep resentatives from throughout the seven western states. The interdenominational group which teaches Bible, stories to children is sponsor ing a children's rally tomor row at 2 pjn. in the Lincoln school gymnasium.

Anyone interested is invited CHURCH NEWS National Religious Publicity Council family. His wife, and children complain, with justice, that they rarely get a chance to do things together like a normal family. And even when they do plan a day or an evening together, it is likely to be interrupted either by an emergency call or by one of the innumerable func tions at which the pastor is expected to "put in an appear ance." The minister's second big gest problem, according to the survey, is that there is al most no one, outside of his own family, with whom he can let down his hair and be himself. He feels imprisoned within a stereotyped "role" that people expect him to play. He is not allowed, like other men, to have days on which he feels cross, irritable and grumpy. He must even beware of feeling lightheart- ed, lest someone mistake it for impiety. It should be noted that this problem of being "always on parade" is, far more pro nounced among the pastors of small town and rural church es than among ministers of big city and suburban church es. Among Lowest Paid A closely related complaint of many pastors is that their wives ana cnuaren are ex pected tqbe "different." Many layman holds up for the minister's family a standard of perfection which he would never think of applying to his own family. The ministers listed in fourth place the personal problem that a layman might have expected them to men tion first. That is difficulty in making ends meet financial ly. Clergymen are the lowest- paid professional men in America. A recent study which covered ministers in several major Protestant de nominations showed their av erage salary is about $4,500 a year. It also indicated that two - thirds of the nation's Protestant ministers are in debt. Many of them reported their wives have had to go to work to bring even an austeri ty family budget into balance.
