...United Methodist Church-one of the mainstream churches that worked most energetically in Key 73-is a case in point. Not only are Methodists once again enthusiastic about evangelism, but they now view it as a joint effort of all Christians, says the Rev. Ira Gallaway, head of evangelism for the denomination.
