I aspired to understand more precisely the nature of the Anglican Church's propensity to accommodate the values and norms of its wider culture.

- "One of the topics on the Agenda for the ninth Lambeth Conference being held in 1958 is `The Family in Modern Society'. The Church of England Moral Welfare Council was asked by the Archbishop of Canterbury to prepare a report on this topic for the use of the Lambeth Conference. The Moral Welfare Council, in turn, contacted all of the Ecclesiastical Provinces in the Anglican Communion asking to be kept informed of any studies made concerning this subject. It was emphasized that two special concerns were Overpopulation and the Impact of Industrialization upon Family Life. At the request of the Primate, the General Secretary prepared a summary of factual information concerning the Canadian family for the consideration of the Canadian Bishops. This paper was read at the meeting of the House of Bishops in 1957 and at the request of the C.S.S. Executive and with the consent of the Primate is published in this Bulletin. The S.P.C.K. has published the Report of the special committee convened by the Moral Welfare Council, together with the Reports received from overseas, in `The Family in Contemporary Society'. The Canadian material is included in the publication and is reproduced in this issue of The Bulletin with the permission of the S.P.C.K." -- Foreword.

- "The life of the nation can be no stronger that the life of its families. The tone of the family is dependent upon the moral and spiritual outlook of its members. The Church has fostered the highest ideals of family life. Today, under the moral disintegration so apparent in many areas of society, these are jeopardized. The Church is therefore deeply concerned. Moreover, due in part to this disintegration in morals, but also to social and economic maladjustments in society, the size of the family has rapidly lessened. Indeed, this phenomenon presents a distinct threat to the existence of some racial and social groups. At the Annual Meetings in 1942 the members of the Council and of the Executive Council of General Synod asked that information about this be made available to our Church people. Since the Government has recently begun a careful study of the matter and is making information public, we are able to present some factual material very pertinent to the whole question. We believe that this presents a distinct challenge to Christian teachers and leaders for more detailed education on Christian lines: a challenge also to Church people generally to regard their personal responsibilities in these vital matters". -- Foreword.

- "Part of the Resolution adopted by the Executive Council in 1942 reads as follows: `The Council views with great concerns the lessening proportion of the Anglo-Saxon to the non-Anglo-Saxons in the population of Canada and urges that there should be continually brought before our Anglo-Saxon people the privilege and opportunity of helping to preserve British ideals and influence in our country which larger families make possible'."

- Bulletin about the family "this most ancient and honourable of institutions ... now in danger of corruption and ultimate destruction not only in Canada, and in the North American continent, but in other sections of the world, as well. Its weakening is bound up with the growth of a whole body of social phenomena, interacting and reacting upon it .... And it is to the preservation of the very essentials of our community life that we should turn today. The high task that confronts not the social worker, but the citizen of today is to bulwark the old home life that has been the strength of this country and of the people from whom we have sprung against those forces which compass it about". -- p. 4. "The purpose of this paper has been to establish the fact that if the Church is to maintain the sanctity of the home here in this day and in this Dominion of Canada, She must dedicate herself to the very practical problem of ascertaining that the houses of her children are habitations in which homes can be formed." -- pp. 15-16.

- "Thus Bulletin and another, No. 108, which will accompany it, deal with two matters, first the Church's relation to Social Agency work and, second, Social Insurances. These are closely allied. The problems of individual, family and social life which arise out of material as well as moral conditions are reflected in what the social worker and the pastor see day to day. These problem cases are met, to some degree at least, by the benefits of one or other of the Social Insurances.
- In this Bulletin we deal with the relations of parish clergy and welfare workers, whose common responsibilities and efforts are complicated and highly intensified under war conditions. After a general article on the relation of pastors and welfare workers we are presenting excerpts from various sources which indicate these problems in different parts of Canada. No pastor today can be unaware of these conditions. His work is multiplied by reason of them. Nevertheless in order to sharpen up the attention of pastors and people alike we present these statements.
- The need for a supreme pastoral effort by priest and people was never greater. The general welfare of our people depends upon the ministrations rendered to them in spiritual, moral and material affairs. Moreover the `morale' of the people necessary for winning the war, if for nothing else, will be maintained the better by such ministrations". -- Editor's Foreword.

Penfield, President of the Vanier Institute of the Family, asking the Anglican Church of Canada to endorse in principle, the Institute's approach to Canadian citizens for support. He had requested also the opportunity of consultations with representatives of the Anglican Church in order to develop appropriate ways in which the concern and support of the Anglican Church might be expressed.

- And that the General Secretary, Canon R.R. Latimer, be appointed to work with the appropriate committee of the Institute to carry out the implications of this resolution. CARRIED
- Notes
