Salient: An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria University, Wellington. Vol. 24, No. 3. 1961

An Open Letter

An Open Letter

Dear Fellow-Student,

During April 9-14, Dr. Masumi Toyotorne, M.A., B.D., Ph.D.. and the Rev. Warner Hutchinson, B.A., B.D., will address Victoria University of Wellington under the theme "Christ in the Student's Life."

The aim of their addresses will be to present the central facts of Christianity, and to indicate their relevance to the life of a student.

As pointed out by Mr W. G. Malcolm, Lecturer in Mathematics, in the last issue of Salient, evangelism in the university should not be considered - incongruous. Evangelistic missions are three-yearly events in Oxford and Cambridge where, rightly or wrongly, British university practices are set.

No one will need feel embarrassed by attendance at any of these meetings, nor will feel that they are committing themselves to any particular religious position. The speakers themselves are prepared to examine students' difficulties honestly, and are well qualified to do so.

We therefore invite students to attend, in the confidence that they will weigh seriously the message of the speakers, and will draw their own reasoned conclusions.

Yours sincerely,

Bob Stewart, President,

Geoff. Clareburt, Secretary,

(Victoria University of Wellington Evangelical Union)
