By its very .aturc, a week end retreat takes one into an- i vuier wuiiu -iiiu wwiiq ui iui- atively undented nature where one is undiverted from the simple joy of waking to a foggy dawn, retiring beneath a blaze of twinkling .stars and a waning moon, of surrender ing to the fascination of a crackling fire on a stone hearth, of seeing the woods be gin their vernal awaKening from the cold winter's slum ber, feeling the warm promise of the good old summer time, pondering the wonder of all this natural order amid such human disorder, feeling grate ful for the miracle of each day and the thousand tomorrows to come. In a word, a retreat takes one into the special world of the spirit. This retreat was held at a farm just off the road to Da mascus. Md., a mile or two from the headquarters of the Atomic Energy Commission, 25 miles from downtown Washington. The retreat farm h owned by the Church of the Saviour of Washington, an ecumenical congregation. Area Isolated The retreat area is isolated from the rest of the 150-acre j farm. It centers in a rustic lodge, built on the edge of a wood, consisting of a large room in which the group meets for discussion, silent meditation or worship, a din ing room and a kitchen. Near by in the woods is the inn, with 18 individual sound proofed rooms. This was not a special Lent en retreat, but one. of many held almost every week end throughout the year, some of which have drawn laymen and ministers from near and far ence awaiting j others participating in the you.

On Christian Concept Their occupations are sig nificant because the entire focus of the two-day retreat (from Friday supper into Sun day afternoon) was on the Christian concept of vocation. What is the responsibility of the devout Christian in his job? What is his calling? Can his job be a vehicle for Chris tian service or discipleship? A traditional view is that man has been given special talents by his Creator, that in developing these talents and using them in useful enter prises for his society he is doing the will of God. This view holds, whether he be a plumber or a biologist, a doc tor or a teacher. The point was that this view makes Christianity a seven-day re sponsibility, not just a Sun-day-good-bchavior matter. Prof. Roy does not hold with this view. In short, he believes that every Christian has a primary vocation which is distinct from his wage-or salary - earning occupation. That primary vocation is the call to discipleship, to pro claim the word of God.

"To sum up," said Ruslum Roy, "the renewal of the church by the recovery of the meaning and assumption of re- Christians abanaon those jobs sponsibility by all the 'laos' of God is the only hope in the mid-twentieth century for an effective proclamation of the 'secret given to Christians. "In order to give the people of God the responsibility it is necessary also for them to have the commensurate au thority. The people of God consists of human beings call ed by Him for but one single purpose - to proclaim the na ture of God revealed in Jesus Christ by continuing His life and redemptive acts. All Christians have the same call ing to communicate the Word. "How they maintain them selves and how they use their specific strategies to permit most effective communica tion: it is necessary that Chris tians enter all the diversities of human existence in order that Christ may be brought effectively into every corner of it."
