The church, burned to the ground Oct. 30 after a civil rights rally was held there, was reconstructed during the holiday weeks by the volunteer student group. The paster of the congregation, the Rev.

Title: Seminarians' racial Christmas card.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-31952 SEMINARIANS’ RACIAL CHRISTMAS CARD ST. PAUL, Minn. -- This unusual Christmas card was a result of the involvement of a group of seminarians in a racial justice project last summer in Mississippi. The greeting card reproduces a photo of a Negro boy in a Harlem slum. Participating in the racial project were about 100 students preparing for the priesthood at Nazareth Hall, minor seminary of the St. Paul archdiocese, in suburban Arden Hills. As a result of their work they were determined to have a “relevant” message dealing with racial justice on one of the Christmas card they prepare and sell annually. The card reads: “Christ is here. Go to meet Him. He is here…in His poor, in the afflicted, in the little ones, in those thirsting for justice, in His least brethren, in the crucified. Embrace Him.” Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (WT-MINN-12D-64-NAB)

Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-31592 INTERRELIGIOUS 'GOOD NEIGHBOR' DRIVE CLEVELAND -- Protestant, Roman Catholic and Jewish leaders in Cleveland cooperated in a one-week drive to get church and synagogue members to sign a "Good Neighbor" pledge. The effort was sponsored by the interreligious Greater Cleveland Conference on Religion and Race. Mayor Ralph S. Locher of Cleveland is shown signing a proclamation calling for the voluntary pledges. Looking on are from left, Father Vincent P. Haas, moderator, Catholic Interracial Council of Cleveland; the Rev. B. Bruce Whittemore, executive secretary, Cleveland Area Church Federation; and Rabbi Alan S. Green, Jewish Community Federation. The pledge, in part, states: "I will support the right of any law-abiding and responsible person of whatever race, religion or national origin to move into my neighborhood."

Title: New York school boycott keeps many out of class.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-30565 NEW YORK SCHOOL BOYCOTT KEEPS MANY OUT OF CLASS NEW YORK -- Many students went to class on schedule, but thousands of others observed a one-day boycott of all New York City schools to protest racial imbalance in the system. The demonstration was the largest of its kind ever held in the country, with 464, 361 students -- 44.8 percent of the total enrollment -- observing the boycott. Though "freedom song" renditions and shouting marked the march around schools, the picketing was orderly and unobstructed. Many of the boycotting students spent the day in "freedom schools" established mainly in local churches. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (W-NY-2B-64-NBM)
