The Bible Study has prov­ ed to be a maj or means of spiritual renewal and Chris­ tian nurture for many indi­ viduals and has strengthened the life of that congregation. The Bible Study has been characterized by lively dis­ cussion, shared experience, fresh insights, mutual en­ couragement, and warm to­ getherness. Each meeting concludes with a period of open prayer. Studies undertaken so far have included the HParables of Jesus," the "Letter to the Philippians", and the H Fir8t Letter of John". They have just begun a study of the Courtesy of B.

TORONTO What was originally contemplated as "a private visit" by Archbishop Donald Coggan to Canada last month, was transformed into a full-scale series of meetings, luncheons, addresses and ser­ mons before the Archbishop of Canter­ bury's 10-day trip across the country was completed. Last year, before he was named the 101 st successor to the see of Canterbury, Coggan agreed to give the Martin, Memorial Lectures at the College of Emmanuel and St. Chad this spring. Following his enthronement as the spiritual head of Anglicans around the world, he decided to honor his earlier commitment to the Saskatoon college. Then, arrangements were made for him to meet with Archbishop Ted S-cott, primate, and Presiding Bishop John Allin of the U.S. Episcopal Church for a day of private informal discussions. As the archbishop's visit became known, invitations arrived fast and fur­ ious and days planned for leisure became filled with agenda items. In addition to luncheons and dinners, there were press conferences, addresses, sermons, ledures and worship services. First visit It was the first VISit to Canada by Archbishop and Mrs. Coggan since h.e last preached in Toronto seven years ago and throughout his four-day visit to Toronto he was approached by old friends with whom he had spent time during his years as professor of New Testament at Wycliffe College from 1937 _ THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY (RIGHT) 'WITH PRIMATE AT PRESS CONFERENCE to 1944.
