Talk by Mark Gibbs
Assistant Editor of ' Christian News-Letter '
At this period of the year the German churches hold their confirmation services. They are an event in the lives of young people. The Government in Eastern Germany has attempted to provide a secular equivalent to this in what is called ' Youth Dedication.' This is opposed by the churches. Mr. Gibbs, who knows the German situation well, tells of the latest information on this Church-State struggle in the Soviet Zone.
