By its very .aturc, a week

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

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

throughout the year, some of
which have drawn laymen and
ministers from near and far

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.

that there is no fundamental
distinction between the clergy
and the laymen, that the laity
(laos) are equally called by
God to serve and proclaim His
word.
"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."
