Gordon Winch, director of the Distress Centre in To- ronto will be guest speaker at an interesting open meeting to be held at Wrixon Hall, St. Mary’s Anglican Church, Thurs- day, October 17. Rev. Winch, who is well known in this area, is the former Padre of the Pubs, a post he held for four/ years. While serving in this capacity, Rev. Winch oper- ated on a freelance basis, ministering to the men and women who frequented the pubs and bars in Toronto. He developed a pattern of visitation, dropping in, us- ually in the evenings, to ap- proximately 10 different, beverage rooms once every two weeks- Interspersed with these.visits were calls to {new pub or cocktail lounge. ‘ His presence in these estab- lishments, wearing his clerical collar, had a marked symbolic value. He waited after enter- ing usually “for all of 15 sec- onds” before becoming involved in conversation. All about him he could hear muttered com- ments -â€"- “What’s a clergyman doing in this place?” and “Is he here to solve his own prob- lems?" Alcoholics, says Rev. Winch, are not found in pubs as a rule, since they tend to be loners and prefer to drink in seclusion. Patrons of a beverage room are there not only to drink but to socialize, giving them a sense of community. The Padre to the Pubs found himself working on a different level than the professionals who work with alcoholics. He learn- ed the value of their resources and what the role of the church is in relation to these people. An invitation is extended to anyone interested in‘ hearing Rev. Winch speak to attend on this occasion. The time is 8 pm. Refreshments will be served.
