EMPIRE YOUTH SUNDAY,
1951.
MAY 6th,
The following Message from His
Majesty the King is published for
,general information :-
BUCKINGHAM
PALACE
The Queen and I greatly appreciate
the loyal message which we have re-
ceived on the occasion of Empire Youth
Sunday, and send our best wishes to all
who are sharing in the observance.
We hope that as young people of all
parts of the British Family of Nations
join in worship on this day, whether
in a famous capital city or in some
small and lonely village, they will be
,conscious of the spiritual bond which
unites them, and will draw courage anwl
inspiration for the tasks which lie
.ahead.
No generation has ever inherited
graver problems or faced more formid-
-able perils, but no generation has ever
had greater opportunities for shaping
for good the future of the world. We
pray that under God's guidance our
young people may learn the wisdom
which accepts problems as a challenge,
the unselfishness which welcomes bur-
dens as an opportunity and the courage
which uses perils as a spur so that, thus
equipped, they may loyally serve not
only their own Commonwealth but
Mankind.
