Sharply Pared Church Activity
During Summer Said Avoidable
mer was a
Br LOUIS CASSELS
UPI Correspondent
In the small town America
of an earlier generation, sum-
pretty lively
season for
churches.
Relative
ly few families
could afford
a vaca
tion trip,
and those
who did go
to the beach
or the moun-
taucii tains rarely
stayed longer than a week.
Knowing that most people
would be at home, and that
children wouldn't be tied
down with school activities,
churches planned a big pro
gram. Summer was the time
for vacation Bible schools,
church picnics, Sunday school
socials and revival meetings
conducted by big-name visit
ing preachers.
Today, in the typical subur
ban church, you'll, find no
such bustle of summer activ.
ity. In fact, you'll . be lucky
if you find anything going
on. During July and August,
it is standard practice in
many churches to suspend
Sunday school classes, dis
miss the choir, drastically re
duce the schedule of worship
services, and turn the pul
pit over to a succession of
substitute preachers who are
sometimes chosen for their
availability rather han their
eloquence.
Some pastors feel that the
"summer slump ' is unavoid
able. They point out that
long out-of-town vacations
have become the rule rather
than the exception for Amer
ican families. And the auto
mobile makes it easy to get
away for a week end even if
a family is theoretically
spending the summer at
home. .
Moreover, they say, the
hardworking- "regulars" who
carry the load of church activ
ity really need a breathing
spell during the summer, a
chance to let down a little and
renew their energy and en
thusiasm for the hectic pace
which will resume in September.-
While acknowledging the
force of these arguments, oth
er ministers believe that a
church is betraying its Lord
when it lies down and plays
dead for nearly one fourth of
the year. With ingenuity and
determination; they say, a
church can remain alive year-
round.
In the current issue of the
Methodist magazine "Togeth
er," ministers who have suc
cessfully overcome the sum
mer slump tell how they did
it. ." , . ,
Should ATOid Absences
The Rev. Bernard T. Lomas,
pastor of the Epworth-Euclid
Methodist church of Cleve
land, Ohio, says the minister
should avoid , protracted ab
sences during the summer.
"Although he needs time
off for physical and spiritual
refreshment, he should not be
gone for long periods. Two.
Two Nominated as -Oregon
Postmasters
Washington -WfD- Two men
were nominated Wednesday
as postmasters in Oregon.
They were Richard A. King
of Forest Grove and Chester
T. French of Waldport. Their
names were sent to the Sen
ate for confirmation.
week vacations properly
scheduled will be of greater
benefit to him and his family.
without dealing, church activr
ity a death blow.
The Rev. Harvey F. Smith,
pastor of Saint Andrew's Me
thodist church, Jamaica Plain,
Mass., said his church con
ducts its principal Sunday ser
vice at 9:30 instead of 11 a.m.
during the summer, and en
courages the congregation to
come in informal dress so that
families can start for the near
by seashore, lakes or parks
when the service ends.
The Rev. Mr. Smith also
feels that summer should be a
1 1 m e for especially good
preaching by the pastor rath
er than indifferent sermons
from substitutes. He polls the
members of his congregation
on their most "pressing con
cerns" and prepares a special
series of sermons addressed to
those concerns.
In Colorado, a number of
pastors have found it helpful
to recruit summer staffs to re
lieve the Sunday school teach
ers, choir members, ushers
and other church workers
who serve most of the year.
"This serves a threefold
purpose," said a spokesman
for the Rocky Mountain Meth
odist conference. "New peo
ple, and .more people, are in
volved in the program of the
church. Programs are given
the impetus of fresh ideas.
And regular workers can take
a rest, returning refreshed
and enthusiastic in the fall."
Although the details of suc
cessful s u m m e r programs
vary from one church to an
other; they all seem to be ani
mated by the same philoso-
pny. ii was - expressed suc
cinctly by the Rev. Mr. Lom
as: "We realize that people may
take a vacation from the
church, but we do not think
the church should ever take
a vacation from the people.'
