C U L T S € R I T I Q U E by Betty Bruechert Friends ask: “Since the death of Frank Buchman, has MRA gone out of existence?” For answer, I quote from an article which appeared in the Nov. 2, 1962 issue of the Los Angeles Times: date line Odawara, Japan. GANDHI’S GRANDSON HELPS TO LEAD MRA “Rajmohan Gandhi outwardly resem bles his famed grandfather, Mohandas K. Gandhi, very little. “Rajmohan Gandhi is an earnest 26-year-old journalist who has given his career over to Moral Re-Arm|i- ment (MRA), the former Oxford group movement begun by the late Frank Buchman. “ Gandhi was one of hundreds of delegates from 41 countries who came here to open a new MRA Asian cen ter in the foothills of the Hakone Mountains. “ As an Asian with a famous name and a driving personality of his own, he is likely to be one of the prime movers in MRA’s ambitious program ‘to capture the ideological initiative from Red China and bring unity to all Asia.’ “ Gandhi says he ‘met MRA’ while working in Edinburgh as a reporter. “ ‘My grandfather,’ he told the writer, ‘fought for the freedom of In dia in a remarkable way. MRA is a fight to remake the entire world. The fight is a bigger fight this time.’ “ The fight to change the thinking of Asia and Asians will be directed from the new $1.4-million center here, a luxurious six-story building which towers above the old castle of the Hojo Clan, rulers of Japan 600 years ago. “MRA says it hopes to alter the shape of Asia through the promulga tion of four principles—absolute love, absolute justice, absolute purity and absolute honesty. “ It insists that human society can not change until man adopts these principles. Men like Gandhi have convinced many of the rich and pow erful of thé world that this is the only real answer to communism.” The teachings of MRA were quite fu lly covered by Dr. Louis T. Talbot in the Oct. and Nov. 1961, and Jan uary 1962 issues of the King’s Busi ness.—Associated Press Despatch FEBRUARY, 1963

For as little as $10 a month you may give hope and opportunity to one o f these destitute Korean children. As a sponsor, your help will provide food, shelter, clothing and school tuition. And equally important, your sponsorship will assure child of a Christian home, supervised by Bible-believing Christians. The Korean children pictured here, and many, many more like them, are praying earnestly for people like you to be their Mommy or Daddy, Big Brother or Sister. Still others, from unlicensed Korean orphanages are being brought to us—because of our better facilities—but we can care for them only if we obtain sponsors. In the name of humanity they must be taken off the streets. DADDY K I L L E D BY C O M M U Jung Chang Hoon (G-6) is a fine boy, praying for someone to undertake his support. His father was shot by Communists because he was a gospel preacher. His mother struggled to provide for him until she died in a Mission hospital. Another pastor sheltered him for 5 months until poverty forced him to bring Chang to one of our orphanages. He is in the 8th grade, “a room leader, honest and intelligent.” But the great lack in his life is a sponsor. Others, with stories just as heart-rending, are looking hopefully to you to have their prayers answered.
Act now, and do what your compassionate heart tells you to do. Fill out the coupon below. Your heart will be “strangely warmed” as you receive your child’s letter (translated into English), telling of his (or her) gratitude. If your child is too young to write, a staff member will cheerfully write in his stead. Our New Name—COMPASSION . . .
