Pastor Favors Broad Program Including Moving Pictures COMMUNITY movies, community dances, and community schools, why not community churches? This was the question which the Rev. H. I. Parrott, pastor of the Windsor Park Congregational Church, Chicago, 111., answered in his sermon recently, on the subject, "The Church of the New Democracy." "The church will be without a creed of belief, only a creed of purpose," he said. "A man will not be asked as to his belief in the divinity of Christ or in any of the doctrines now deemed essential. If he has a purpose to help his fellow men and work for the good of the community he will be welcome. It is deeds, not beliefs, which will separate the sheep from the goats. "You can't have a community church just by giving it the name 'Community Church.' It must be a church with a program which will give everybody something to do." Costly Slides in the long run, are inexpensive slides. A good image on the screen only comes from a cheap slide — by accident. Have your slides made and colored by one who has visited the places you are lecturing on. Atmosphere is everything in a lantern slide.
