International Christian Relief leader meets in Amsterdam By Rev. James T. Shaw Executive Secretary It was a thrilling experience t-0 give a report of the International Christian Relief to the 5th Plenary Congress, meeting in Amsterdam, the ether– lands Aug. 15-20. In this report I gave a summary of all that God has enabled us to do in the year and a half that I have been the Executive Secretary of this program. Perhap one of the greatest ble si ngs that I received was in talking with the dif– ferent groups from around the world that have been receiving needed help from the International Christian Re– lief. They told us repeatedly that through the materials received from ICR, they were able to extend their own mini try in reaching ouls for the Lord J e us. Thi wa a token of the manifold blessing of God upon thi program. In relation to this, there were 62 countries representing 83 denomina– tions gathered at this congress. It wa thrilling indeed to ee the unity of purpo e expressed by the peakers a they exalted the Word of God. A a result of the report that I gave to the Congress, there have been three ad– ditional requests for aid from Taipei, Formosa, Bagdad, Iraq, and Belem, Brazil. We now are asking the Lord to give us the needed fund to meet these requests. On Sept. 21, we met with the full Advi ory Committee on Voluntary Foreign Aid, at which meeting, our application for registration was re– viewed. On March 23, 1962, we were officially turned down by the om– m1ttee, due to an interpretation of the rules and regulations governing thi ommi ttee. We have asked for a revocation of this deci ion. On Sept. 21 , we presented the rea~ons why we ·hould receive th1 registration. We asked that you make tht \ a matter of earnest, fervent prayer on our behalf, in order that we may receive this regi tratio11. When and if we do re– ceive this registration , we will be in a 1>0 ition to obtain surplt1s food'i fro111 our ,overnr11cnt for our 111is– sionarics and native pastors around the \\'Orld. 1 l1a e 1 etur11ed fro111 the ongre~s ar d found tl1at the J R is llchi11d fi11a11ciall) 1 • 'A' c havt: 111ore rcqL1est f r ai J, a c.·1,Jai11 d &1bov , hut art: lacking 111 fur1d to n1akc }1iJ>111c11t s \.\'l1icl1 are aJrcad}' packed , 11d "ait ing t go. lie n d i CJ tl ial a11d we arc app Ji11g t }' u 1 gi\' u u11d a di I d ur a drt: ~ i , 756 Th OHIO INDEPENDENT BAPTIST Haddon Ave. Colling wood, New Jer ey.
