these churches at the request of the representatives of the christian church the following opinions were elicited from the re presentatives of the united church namely question in the event of union would the present pastoral rela tions of the congregations of the christian church be dis turbed answer the polity of the united church provides for a pastoral relationship without a time limit the pastoral relationships ofj the churches of the christian conference would therefore j not be distributed except by the action of the minister or of the congregation concerned question will the relationship of congregations to one another as now existing in the christ ian church be distributed by entering union answer assurance was given that the practice of the united church was not to disturb any congregation without its con sent question will the organization and practices enjoyed by the con gregations of the christian church at the time of union be disturbed by the union answer in regard to this matter the christian church would be put upon the same basis as the negotiating churches that enter ed union on june 10h 1925 and therefore the section o the basis of union under the pastoral charge would obtain namely in the management of their local affairs the various churches charges circuits or congrega tions of the negotiating church es shall be entitled to- continue the organization and practices including those practices relat ing to nienbership church or dinance sunday school and young peoples societies enjoy ed by them at the time of the uniofi subject in general
