     Contrary to popular 
     
     opinion, I.V.C.F. does 
     
     not stand for Intro- 
     
     Verted Churchgoers 
     
     Foundation. The initials 
     
     are derived from Inter- 
     
     Varsity Christian 
     
     Fellowship, a fifty year 
     
     old organization that had 
     
     its origin in universities 
     
     in England but has now 
     
     spread to oommmity 
     
     colleges, schools of 
     
     nursing and technical 
     
     institutions all over the 
     
     world; .5 -   7 
     
    

    
     As an interdenominational‘ 
     
     student—run organization, 
     
     I.V.C.F. essentially pursues 
     
     13070 general goals . In the 
     
     first place, there is the 
     
     purpose of helping 
     
     Christian students to think 
     
     through and understand

     their faith relative to the 
     
     issues confronting than on'fi 
     
     campus and in the modern 
     
     world. Secondly, there is 
     
     a oomnitmmt to commmic— 
     
     at-ing to the non-Christian 
     
     community, the central 
     
     affirmations of historically 
     
     orthodox Christianity in a 
     
     way relevant to the ’ 
     
     questions and concerns of 
     
     the contemporary student. 
     
     Both of these objectives are 
     
     pursued in very practical 
     
     terms, with the conviction 
     
    
   
   
    
      that»the—‘Christian position 
     
     needs not only-to be ' ’ ‘ 
     
    
   
   
    
     intellectually understood 
     
     but also and especially 
     
     lived-out through a loving 
     
     and supportivecommnmity. 
     
     Towards these ends the 
     
     I.V.C.F. group at UPEI has 
     
     struggled, for the last six

     group is growing, both' ‘ 
     
     numerically and in 
     
     maturity, and there is 
     
     great hope for the future. 
     
     Issues dealt with in the 
     
     past include such things as: 
     
     the problem of liwirlg in a 
     
     grossly affluent and ' 
     
     materialistic society while 
     
     millions suffer economic 
     
     injustice; the responsibility 
     
     of Christians to be 
     
     politically informed and 
     
     involved; the' response of ' 
     
     our society to the reality 
     
     of death and dying; the 
     
     need of developing a life— 
     
     style of integrity and 
     
     unselfish concern for 
     
     others; the significance 
     
     and implications of know- 
     
     ing Jesus Christ as Lord.
