thecburch isnt what it used to be Some Barrie clergy men say they have shortage of young people late teens and early 20s in their congregations others say they hay plenty But hardly anyone in that age group seems to be turning up on Sunday morning simply be cause its the thing to do These days it isnt Theres very little perfunc tory churchgoiiig left says Re John Speers of Trinity Anglican thurch president of the Barrie and District tin isterial Association Mr Speers says todays teen agers hay considerable interest iii religion prayer and the Bible but they cant seem tohack Sunday nioriimg part ly because of peer group pres sure which he says is much stronger than generation ago and partly because of rebellion against establishment struc tures SOME ONIE BACK Practically all our young people go away at the end of high school he says Some of them comeback Part of the problem he says is the fact that young people tend to identify Trinity as their parents church and him as their parents priest and he thinks the situation would im prove if the parish could afford priest in his 205 At marriage age Mr Speers says many of the youngsters come back At that point theyre either interested or theyre not Mr Speers says people under 10 are more spiritually inclined than their elders and when they embrace hristiaiiity they embrace it fully unlike those of an older generation who often stipport the church as social iiistittitioii while disbeliey mg the creed it teaches Rev Don Peake of Barnes Family Life hurch Christian and Missionary Alliancel also finds relatively few young peo ple turning out on Sundays IIIES PROBLEM He traces the problem partly to the fact that parents how abandoned the religious educa tion of their children leaving the iob to the church and part ly to the fact that churches themselves haye encouraged this trend At his own church he says he places no heayy emphasis on youth programs and does not operate bus system which he says would take one more re sponsibility away from the family Instead programs are under way to help parents cope with their older childrens unwill ingness to attend church and to teach them how to provide prtv per spiritual education for their younger children In former days he says older teens were forced to go to church but today they are allowed to go their own way He himself he says would not force teenage child to attend church unwillingly If you have to force your child to go at 17 theres been breakdown somewhere he says Mr Peake says the period of rebellion against churches seeiiis to end in the late 20s and many people come back then Half his own congregation is under 30 he says but most of that group is iii its late 20s Rev John ONeill of St John ianney tatholic thurch says he has noticed return to church by young people in re cent years TIIROltiII IIOFI see lot in my church he says think weve hm through the falloff period Father ONeill says th0 height of rebellion against government and other struc tures is well as against chur ches came in the its and young people take ii more con SllllCtH approach today think young people are great he says think young people are asking questions and oulndt hay it any other way You have to question your faith you haye to seek out the answers Rev Ken Iurdon of Burton Avenue lnited hurch who has now moved to Toronto also sees trend back to church among young people trend he traces to an improved awareness of the human condition ewe went through time when man seemed in control of everything he says citing such accomplishments as lan ding man on the moon PeoA ple thought they could get along without God But now various crisis and breakdowns in society have demonstrated mans weakneSs and the need for strength greater than our own he says As result some young people have turned to exotic cults but found them inadequate They arent the kind of thing that can last he says They havent endured the centuries as basic Christianity has IilVltgtNIENTALSTHERE Christianity has changed in some measure over the past 2000 years he says but the fundamentals are still there and thats what is drawing peo ple back to church Moreover he says young people have been showing less interest in rioyelties and more in stable traditions For exam ple he says he has had two re quests this summer from young people for the least modern of his churchs three wedding ser vices the one which uses King James version English hadnt used that service in eight or nine years he say Oiie minister who is happy with young peoples attendance at his church is Rev Howard Courtney assistant pastor at HiMay Pentecostal Church who is himself only 25 Half the congregation is under 35 he says and about 50 teens turn out each week for midweek services Why They go where they get something he says He says Pentecostal services and the entire orientation of the church leads to an excitement and sense of value not found in many other churches We believe that when Jesus hrist takes over the life of person then their lifestyle becomes more exciting he The total needs of per son body soulY and spirit are met LOCAL AND GENERAL IlESISPEAKER Rev Mrs Higginson of

at the indorr courts now be ing built on Bell Farm Road Don Pratt president of the Barrie Indoor Tennis Courts and owner of DO Pratt Ltd INDOOR New ideas on finance Every municipality should havea credit rating Provincial grants often push municipalities further into debt Homes and businesses should betaxed at single mill rate Larger municipalities should be more reluctant than small ones to go into debt These are among the unusual and startling ideas on municipal finance tossed around last week at the annual convention of the Association of Municipalities of Ontario AM in Toronto Ald Alex Arthur charman of Barries finance committee was there along with Ald Janice Laking also commit tee member and he found much to agree with in the pro ceedings Delegates were told that all municipalities should have thorough credit rating donea new concept Ald Arthur said today just recently tried in IIamiltonWentworth region Such rating involves not on ly checking the books but in vestigating such aspects of the tax base as the detxindence of local industry of American home offices which could decide in time of recession to cut back their anadian opera tions Your town may appear to be prosperous but nevertheless the sword of Damocles hangs over its head Ald Arthur said He said he would support credit rating for Barrie dont think it would do any harm he said INDECIDED He said he is undecided on another point raised the asser tion that Ontario Municipal Board OMB approval of municipal debt is based on iii adequate information and gives false sense of security He noted that the OMB does not go so deeply into municipal finances and tax bases as credit rating would Ald Arthur also agreed that provincial grants which often call for longterm commit ments of municipal funds as condition can push city fur ther into debt He noted that Barrie has ex panded its transit services in response to provincial encour agement and funding and then seen that funding cut back and been left holding the bag This does not involve debt he said because it affects only the current budget but the same thing can happen with the capital budget Ald Arthur rejected con teiition by one speaker that municipalities should avoid unfunded debt by placing time limit on the sale of delien tures to finance capital pro jects In Barrie he said debentures are sold primarily to invest ment firms by marketing company engaged for the piir pose by the city Policy is to wait for favorable interest rates even at the cost of speii ding reserves in the meantime rather than get stuck with unriuisonablc interest pay ments on the debentures We look to the best llllte when the best rate is going be said This can save hundreds of thousands of dollars but the taxpayers He cited major savings on $2 012 million issue for general capital projects in 1973 as an example of this technique Ha contractors of the building says the quartermilion pro ject will include three courts whirlpool two saunas two tropical sun rooms lounge and an exercisegoom The asphalt courts will be sur COURTS GOING UP IJ vIE RTIIIR IIiSIIIIE One speaker told the convert tion that fast growing inn nicipalities should pay for more projects out of current ftiiids to avoid skyrocketing debt The question is is VII politically feasible asked Ald Arthur Debt is usually justified on the grounds that capital projects will be around for many years and new tax payers who benefit from them should have hand in paying thecost Ilowever he agreed With the contention that municipalities should not count on continuing inflation to cheapen the dollars with which they must repay debts noting that we are sup posed to be fighting inflation not perpetuating it tlimk it is pretty poor philosophy to depend on depreciated dollars he said Proposed property tax re form legislation scheduled to take effect in 1078 was also major topic of discussion at the convention Ald Arthur said today he supports proposals to charge single iiiill rate since the ap parent inequity will be Wiped out by the policy of assessing homes at 30 per cent of market value and businesses at 100 per cent He also supported proposals to tax public property despite the agriinient that money to pay the property tax will inst tie tacked on to the general tax payer through the increased budgets of the public agencies which ill pay the tax He noted that high school in Harrin may serve taxpayers in surrounding tiitlittiL but at present only arrie taxpayers in uiiiroiindiiig townships biil at tilt iit only Barrie tax
