Title:Description:Film made by six 11 to 14 year old boys living in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania--Barry Griffen, James Lucas, Ronald Mapp, Luerell Mapp, Michael Watters, Howard White--who were taught to shoot, develop and edit film. In 1966, Robert D. Stoddard, a recent graduate of Princeton Theological Seminary and assistant pastor at Tabernacle Presbyterian Church (Philadelphia, Pa.), developed the Tabernacle Film Club for West Philadelphia children of junior high school age. Stoddard's initial notion was to have the children film adaptations of Bible stories. A professor at the University of Pennsylvania's Annenberg School of Communication, Sol Worth, advised Stoddard to let the children simply roam with the camera. Funding for the project was raised from the Board of Christian Education and from the Presbyterian Women's Thank Offering. An Annenberg student, Ben Achtenberg, served as director. "Not Much To Do" premiered at the Annenberg School on Monday, November 14, 1966.Creator:Achtenberg, Ben. (director)Subject names:Tabernacle Presbyterian Church (Philadelphia, Pa.)

Description:In March 2001, fifteen PC(USA) representatives travelled to the Vatican, on a return visit from the prior December's first-ever formal meeting. The outcome of the meetings was a joint statement in which all parties resolved to find agreement on the doctrine of justification, to recognize each other's baptisms, and to renounce Reformation-era mutual denunciations. Cliff Kirkpatrick, then stated clerk of the PC(USA), echoed the theme of Christian unity that John Paul II put forward in the 1995 encyclical Ut Unum Sint: "It is our deepest hope that the third millennium of Christian history will be the millennium of the reuniting of the broken body of Christ."Subject names:II, John Paul, 1920-2005., Pope, Kirkpatrick, Clifton, 1945-, Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).
