Resolutions

‘Adopted By

Mennonites

The following minutes and res-
olutions were discussed and adop-
ted at the meeting of Fraser Val-
ley and Vancouver Mennonites con-
gregations reported last week by
THE NEWS as being held in South
Poplar hall on Sunday, Sept. 24.
They were originally presented, it
will be noted, at a meeting held
at Sardis on Sept. 10 and sub-
mitted to the subsequent meeting
for endorsation.

Minutes of the meeting of Rep-
presentatives of various Mennon-
ite Congregations in British Col-
umbia, heid in the Mennonite
church at Sardis on Sept. 10,

Bishop Bahnmann opened the
meeting with a song and reading
of the 4th chapter of the Prophet
Jeremian, foilowed by 4 prayer.

By a majority of votes Bishop
Bacnmann was elected chairman
of the meeting and Rev. Harder
of Yarrow, secretary.

Bishop Bahnmann told the meet-
ing that the present critical world
situation had brought to us anxl-
ous and disturbing questions. ‘he
Mennonite congregation had al-
ready discussed the situation on
tae previous Sunday and had ac-
cordingly written to Bishop 10ews.
Sishop Bahnmann in his own in-

terest had gone to Vancouver
and.,had an interview at Red
Cross headquarters, located at

Room 54, Davies Chambers. 1
responsible person in charge, Mr.
T. W. ‘Yottrey, understandingly
received the explanation as to the
position of the Mennonites, but
Said that he could not say any-
thing definite, because che matter
had not been reguiatea yet. He
expected to depart for Ottawa
that same day and requested Bish-
op Bahbnmann to meet him again
at the end of tne next week.

There next followed a tree dis-
cussion during which the various
aspects were laid clear. It so fol-
towed tha: no binding decisions
could be reached. Vhis would be
the business of elected represent-
atives-of the congregations. A com-
mittee was appointed consist.ng
of the Brethren N. Bahnmann,
Sardis; J. Wiens, Vancouver, and
J. Harder, Yarrow. his commit
tee is to be the liaison between the
General Mennonite committee of
Canada, regarding the question of
noncombatant military service,
and the congregations. The meet-
ing advised the individual congre-
gations to elect Representatives
for a future assembiy and also
that in all congregations during
the next two weeks collections
for the Canadian Red Cross
should be taken.

Our present position be ex-
pressed in the foliowing resolution:
5 ‘We make it our special duty
in this difficult time to earnestly
pray for our Government.

2. We as noncombatant Men-
nonites must not expect to watch
events inactively, while young men

hes gether, religious confessions are
actively serv
The toast to the bride was pro-} ely serving our country. As

Christian Citizens of new Land,
we are ready to serve our coun-
try to the best of our abilities in
tne Service of Benevolence such
as Red Cross Work, should a Gen-
eral Conscription be forthcoming.

In all questions of service sub-
stituted .or actual combatance,
we wish to remain in accord with
the other Mennonite Congregations
in Canada.

The meeting was adjourned with
a prayer. 2
