10 MAGYAR EGYHÁZ WELCOME FROM THE OFFICERS OF THE BETHLEN YOUTH FEDERATION It is always gratifying to see young people of the same faith and orgin meeting in Christian work and fellowship. The Bethlen Youth Federation has made remarkable achievements among the youth of our church during the past few years. Today, especially, when Christianity is on trial, Christian youth must prove its loyalty and faithfulness to the Savior of mankind, Jesus Christ, who is the sole solution to all our personal, social, national and international problems. Members of the Bethlen Youth Federation must be united to carry its share of the responsibilities laid upon the shoulders of Christian youth today. The members of the Bethlen Youth Federation must show their faithfulness and loyalty to the “Faith of the Fathers” and to their historical church, the Hungarian Reformed Church In America and retain and cherish the only independent Hungarian Reformed body in the world today. During our annual conferece, we shall discuss the problems at hand, strengthen our faith, and gather strength for the work we must do in our own congregations.
