Y.C.S. is Christian social change and formation. It is based on a group of eight to ten people, who, through concerted effort, learn to live and love each other. Christian formation determines the course their social action will take. The essence of group action is that the individual must determine her role. CHRISTIAN ACTION Thus, by joining with others, the student proclaims her individuality. She displays her concern for human dignity. The medium of Christian action diifers, but the message can never change-LOVE. This year, Christian Life Community, formerly called Sodality, started a new trend. They met with a group of boys from a St. Ignatius club whose goals are to deal with race relations. With them, C.L.C. experienced a real sense of community through group discussions, projects, and a retreat. Throughout the year, the group helped at a La Grange convalescent home and at a community shop, which is a second hand store for less fortunate people. They not only gained for themselves a sense of Christianity, but witnessed this realization to the world. Human Relations gets students thinking out rather than in. Their projects were determined by need. One such effort was Project.People, through which local children were tutored. The children experienced not only cultural and educational enrichment, but also friendship. Human Relations als.o got to know Spanish-Americans and tried to foster an interest in these people in their own area. Furthermore, they made a constant effort to keep students interested in politics and social problems. ,...., jp .. aswell? .L .. W. . .. . K yy. 5, . V ir 3, ' is X ..
