The Vanguard (Vol. 13, No. 2), Mar 1966, Lutheran Human Relations Association Of America

The Vanguard

Good Christian people often ask members of the staff of the Lutheran Human Relations Association of America, "What can we do? What can we do to become responsibly involved in the civil rights struggle?" There are many things that can and must be done. A plan that has been in the process of development for a number of years, is what LHRAA has called the Rural Summer Vacation Project. Children from the inner city, mostly from underprivileged homes-Indian American, Negro, Appalachian Mountain, et al-are taken into the homes of "host parents" for one or two weeks in rural, small-town, or …

Dr. Oliver Harms, President of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod, has canceled a meeting originally called for December 8, in which he and his Vice-Presidents were to sit with "front-line" workers, to discuss problems attending the racial revolution as it affects the church. He made his announcement in a letter dated Nov. 16 and sent to all who had previously been invited to participate.

The Vanguard (Vol. 13, No. 5), July 1966, Lutheran Human Relations Association Of America

The Vanguard

The Lutheran Church in America, meeting in convention June 21-29 in Kansas City, Missouri, passed two recommendations which commit that church body to a broader and more intensive ministry to the Indian American. The two recommendations were embodied in the convention report of the LCA's Board of American Missions, and grew out of a special study conducted for the Board by Miss Henrietta Lund, consultant to the United Nations for the National Lutheran Council. Miss Lund has done a number of comprehensive studies for the LCA and other Lutheran church bodies on various aspects of the Church's ministry to the …

21 students and instructors from the University of Pennsylvania helped local Negroes erect a $10,000 community center during Christmas vacation. The community center was considered an essential support for nine Negro families who are striking for decent wages, because it will provide a focus for an economic co-operative to sustain those who are opposing the current $3 per day wage scale paid to them for sunrise to sunset labor.

In November, 1964, The Lutheran Witness commented on the Nobel Prize awarded to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. There were those who immediately responded to the article, criticizing both Dr. King and the Witness for casting him in a favorable light.

It is to be expected that there will be some who take exception also to a statement made recently by the President of the American Lutheran Church, Dr. Fredrik A. Schiotz: "Many well-intentioned people have been critical of Dr. King, calling him a Communist. The time for indulging in this luxury is over. It is time for all who …

The federal government is not the only agency which chooses to fight aggressively the destructive forces at work in the poverty pockets of our cities. In Kansas City, Faith Lutheran Church had long been serving the Northeast Neighborhood in its direct and straightforward way when, in July of 1965, the newly-created Office of Economic Opportunity decided, upon petition by the church, to devote a portion of its funds to this predominantly Negro, lower-income area of the city. The agreement which enabled this cooperation to take place stated that all clients would be served regardless of religious affiliation, and that all …

The Vanguard

For years the vast majority of America's people have backed away from becoming involved in attempts to solve our country's racial problems. Perhaps one reason is the immense and complex nature of these problems. Perhaps they feel there is nothing really that an INDIVIDUAL can do about them.

The Lutheran Human Relations Association of America believes that MANY INDIVIDUALS working away at the problems - in many different places at the same time can achieve much. But it is necessary that there be no postponement. On the strength of such convictions, in cooperation with Valparaiso University, LHRAA has chosen to …
