Description: Text transcribed from caption: C-30392 ‘AGNUS DEI, QUI TOLLIS PECCATA MUNDI’ ROME -- “Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world…” Pope Paul VI raises a white lamb presented to him by children outside the Church of St. Michael the Archangel in the Roman workers’ community of Pietralata. The pontiff had celebrated a Christmas morning Mass at the humble church on the outskirts of the city. Earlier, at a traditional Mass for diplomats in the Vatican’s Sistine Chapel, the Pope stressed the need for peace. He emphasized this theme at Pietralata and later when addressing the throngs in St. Peter’s Square. On Christmas Day, Pope Paul also visited 300 crippled children.

Title: "Don't marry a pastor."
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-32035 ‘DON’T MARRY A PASTOR’ LONDON -- The outspoken opinion of Mrs. Brenda Wolfe of London -- that being a pastor’s wife is a “lousy job” -- had international impact. Writing the Church of England publication, Prism, she declared that “clergy ought to be celibate” and advised girls that to marry a pastor means to marry a congregation. As her words were spread around the globe, a group of American Lutheran Church pastor’s wives gathered in Minneapolis, Minn., were virtually unanimous in their disagreement with the British woman. Mrs. Irving Strangland of Minneapolis argued that Mrs. Wolfe “misunderstands a man’s calling” and “also missed her own calling, which is to serve first as a Christian, then as a pastor’s wife.” Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (PP-NY-1D-65-NBM)

Title: "Operation sandwich" aids hungry Washington marchers.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-29790 ‘OPERATION SANDWICH’ AIDS HUNGRY WASHINGTON MARCHERS NEW YORK -- Eighty-thousand cheese sandwiches, with apples and pieces of marble cake, were packed into lunchboxes at Riverside Church in New York City, then rushed in refrigerated trucks to the nation’s capital for the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. The project to “feed the multitude” of hungry marchers was sponsored by the National Council of Churches’ Commission on Religion and Race. At top, Dr. Robert W. Spike, executive director of the commission, and Dr. Anna Arnold Hedgeman, NCC coordinator of March activities, dedicate the lunches “for the nourishment of thousands” who went to Washington “to say with their bodies and souls that ‘we shall overcome,’” racial injustice. In the bottom photo, some of more than 400 volunteers -- Catholics and Jews as well as Protestants -- assemble the lunches. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (1-NY-8E-63-NBM)

Title: "Pop" music in Hong Kong church.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-31146 “POP” MUSIC IN HONG KONG CHURCH HONG KONG- The Rev. Robin W. Howard, vicar of Christ Anglican church in Hong Kong, conducts a “beat” service for his congregation, complete with an eight-piece band. He said he introduced “pop” music as part of his services, from time to time, on the assumption that most worshippers would enjoy it. The immediate reaction was, he said, “We aren’t used to it in church yet, but we shall like it.” Vicar Howard said he announces in advance when he will hold services with a “swinging beat” so that those who oppose the idea can stay away.
