Most per- - knowledge, "Faith comes first and pro- duces the works, he said. V person is a Christian because he has faith and he does works because he is a Chrisi tian. No one will be spirited into Heaven because he has laith, but said Pastor llammell, faith is a starting point God always works through the media of His word and the sacraments such as communion and baptism, he said Thus persons are brought to faith through the intellect, will " Faith is pro- duced by the poire r of the Spirit , and is a lifeline from God to us and back,'1'1 said Her.

A the person is just cluttering if he lacks landscape Choices Difficult f i i r f f f Clergyman Faces Many Demands A clergyman serving a congregation has many demands on his time, since he is expected to preach sermons, visit the sick, visit homes of his church members, counsel those in trouble and so forth. The list is endless Time is limited, however, and most ministers find occasions when they must choose between several of these tasks to complete the one that is at the most important moment tiiosen depends on the clergyman's greatly own priorities; for that peculiar moment tn time. What is Different iew ? Laity, on the other hand, may see these priorities somewhat differently than their pastor What is the most important of all the tasks a clergyman must do Three laymen commented this week One of the great occupational hazards of the ministry must be for the pastor to try to respond to all the needs of his parish. said Dale Montgomery, a member of First Church Methodist United Parishes are so diverse that most clergy must be caught by a different demand every time they turn around Prov ide Spiritual Guidance To me. however, the most important task of a clergyman is to provide guidance for spiritual growth which can be translated into action based on he the teachings of Christ. said The heritage of the Methodist Church is one of involvement in the world, said Mr Montgomery.

There is much you can do individually and much you can do collectively, as part of a group, he said The Church as a whole is a group in which we can meet individual talents and work together. Stimulating Individuals Thus, the role of the minister becomes that of stimulating action by individuals or groups relative to social action and Christian concerns, said Mr Montgomery Administration of the sacraments is seen as the most important function by Mrs Robert Gordon, member of St Marks Episcopal Cathedral dmimstration of the sacraments involves the priest in she the dual role he has, said He is called by the people to sene the people, but his authority and calling come from God 'Represents ( hrisf Through senmg the sacraments, the priest i serv ing as a repiesentative of the corporate church and is thus a of human representative Christ, she said. When priests properly rep- resent Christ and Christ was a very human Person, reaching out and accept. ng others as He found them people can learn to live also of relationship in this kind with others" she said Thus the clergymans life becomes a kind of experiential way of teaching Christianity He also needs to be an adequate teacher of the gospel in the academic sense." she said. Evangelism, the seeking of lost souls, is the most important task of a minister in the eyes of Thomas Bender Jr a member of Southeast Christian Church , Cline. Wherefore Mary is hailed as and singular a member of the Church and as its type and excellent exemplar in faith and charity . Taught by Holy Spirit Catholic Church, The taught by the Holy Spirit, honors her with filial affection and piety as a most beloved mother, he said. a totally subjective must have faith ourselves1 we cannot borrow it from someone else The minister should lead in his congregation doing he said "Uter evangelism all our maior objective as Christians should be the Iced ing of lost snuls to Christ Even after persons haw become Christians, they need to be taught and helped to better do their job as followers of Christ," he said.
