CHRISTIAN ORDER CAMPAIGN
A new badge will appear in increasing numbers on the streets and in the homes of New Zealand this week—not a badge of military service, but a simple paper badge with the device of a white cross outlined in red on a black background, and bearing the slogan “Christus Victor” (Christ Victorious). It will be worn by young people and it will be the outward sign that the wearer is participating in the nation-wide Youth Week organized by the National Council of Churches as part of the current Campaign for Christian Order. Youth Week will run from yesterday to next Sunday inclusive, anef it will be the culmination of a great deal of planning and organization by the various churches in the campaign, and particularly by their youth workers, youth groups, and allied bodies. Main emphasis is being placed on activities •within the individual parishes and congregations, in the form of special youth services, meetings for study and witness, and the participation of young people in the conduct of church services.
