The story is interesting. Until Garibaldi, 100 years ago, wrested the State from papal power, no protestants were permitted to worship in side the walls of Rome. Epis copalians held services In secret, often in unpleasant places. (It is said that one place was adjoining a garbage dump). They were subject to police interference. When the State was on its own, our government went to the Ital ians, and requested a church. We were a foreign power and free to worship as we liked. Permission was granted. At that time many Ameri cans wintered in Rome the Roosevclts, Astors, Morgans people with m o n e y and it was they who financed the building for the most part. Sir George Street , famous British architect, built the church. The great mosaic chancel is the work of the pre-Raph-aclitc, Byrne-Jones. It is pri marily his work which war rants its being recognized as a monument. The mosaics are awe-inspiring and beautiful. He did what Michelangelo and other early artists did: he painted in the faces of his patrons on the religious fig ures. If you arc aware, you will see President Lincoln, General Grant (why Grant and not Lee, no one knows), Garibaldi, Mr. Roosevelt, (Teddy's father) Mr. Harri man, and Lady Byrne-Jones. Visitors from all over the world come to see the church and to sign the guest book. The congregation on Sunday includes protestants of all faiths Lutherans, M e t h o dists, Presbyterian, and Con grcgationalists. Many British Angclicans worship here. The regular parishioners are small in number in relation to the large number of tourists who visit St. Paul's. After services on Sunday, as in Episcopal churches everywhere, friends meet to visit, and visitors may, or may not, meet anyone. The parish budget is prepared as everywhere, and you are cor dially invited to pledge. Last week was the annual Parish dinner. This differs some what from the churches in the States. Servants do the work, you eat at little tables, and nil food is served individually. There are four courses, and coffee is served ala Italia. You never see all the goodies which are so interesting and integral a part of the annual dinners at home, heaped on long tables. In October 26 Time Maga zine, under Religion, there is a picture of three of the Pro testant observers at the Ecu menical Congress. All of them have preached at the church. The theme of the talks all of them was Christian Unity. The Archdeacon from Colum bia had collected data on the numbers of peoples who might have become Christians had there been more under standing and sympathetic rap port among races and creeds. His most telling story, which students of Mahatma Ghandi well know, was about the great pacifist. Ghandi was an admirer of Christ. He thought the Sermon on the Mount the greatest piece of literature ever written. In his room when he died the only thing on the walls was a picture of Christ on the Cross. At one time Ghandi had tried to go to a Christian service, and was turned down because of his color. The Archbishop, dark him self, suggested that millions of converts may have been lost to the Christian faith by that one act. He cited another: a great power among the Hin dus said, at one time, that he had considered Christianity but that there was something wrong with a religion in which there were so many divisions and sects, and such unfriendly relations. The Rev. Douglas Horton, former dean of religion at Harvard, and representing the International Congregational council at the Congress, in his talk, brought out that under the present Pope, a new wind has blown from Rome. "That wind may change under a new pontiff, and the conservative element seek to break down the friendly contacts being es tablished with other Chris tian denominations. I will not say that the cold war has end ed, but it shows signs of end ing. We are here to interpret what we see in the best kind of light, and to try to gel an understanding of Roman Ca tholicism. It may take a thou sand years to unite. It would be foolish to predict. But what we do know is that un ion is possible in an atmos phere of this kind. It was im possible yesterday." The Ecumenical Congrcss which is still front page new! in all Italian papers - may continue for two years, pos sibly longer. It is being re called that the Council of Trent lasted eighteen years from 1545 to 1563. At the American Catholic church in Rome - St. Susanna -the Rev. Gregory Baun spoke on the scandal of Christian disunity. He said "You cannot think it is up to the others (the non-Catholics) to do all the moving, while we sit and wait." Africans, too, have ques tions to ask, and have organ ized to try to get reforms. Even such a question as the following - why are angels always painted as white, and devils as black?-are asked. Another subject being dis cussed is the language of La tin in the Mass. Certain bish ops feel that they should have the privilege to substitute the vernacular if they saw fit. Catholic Women Name Committee Catholic Daughters, Court St. Marys last week an nounced the appointment of committee women for various activities of the group. Mrs. John Mansfield has been appointed chairman for National Catholic Community service, and Mrs. Peter Rurf is volunteer alternate repre sentative for this service.
