that it becomes awitness ofjustice and peace,treating electedofficials with respect,witnessing to the socialgospel through collaboration in areas inwhich we share values with people who maynot be interested in religion and seriouslyaddressing the role of women in the church.On this last point,he said,“The church mustgive very serious thought to the peril it willencounter if having lost the
