By LOUIS CA5SELS Lyndon B. Johnson is the ecumenical President America has ever hacj. Ills interest in religion appears to have grcftra considerably since he entered (he White House nearly five years ago.

This is not an unusual development. Many previous Presidents have been driven by the burdens of "Hie loneliest office in the world" to arek strength, guidance and solace in worship. The noteworthy aspect Johnson's spiritual quest is its catholicity. You can read thai word, catholjcity, in either of its meanings and it still applies. One connotes comprehensiveness; the other implies a rapport with the Roman Catlio- lic Church.

Johnson grew up In a Baptist IIOT.C. At the age of 17, he attended a revival meeting in Johnson City, Texas, and became a meniiKr of a Protestant body known variously as the Christian Church and the Disciples Christ. He still is offijially a member of that denoniinajiop, anjl occasionally attends Sunday morning services at its "flagship cliurch'' in Washington, tire National City Christian' Church on Jhornas 'Circle. Lady fjird Johnson is 4evq.tpd and husband over the ypars accompanied her often Episcopal" services, both Washington and in Texas. During thp "past two or three years, however.

Johnson has evidenced a graying attraction lp f.iie Roroai) Cathplic faith, which, his. daughter, Luci, ernbraccd iji 1865. attends Mass almost every Sunday he's'in ton at "St. Dpmlnip'5 Cal)iolic Church in the new rpnewal area pf the capital' southwest section. The pastor, Fr.

Thomas Mullany, Is a (all, broad shouldered Dorflinjcan monk who wears the traililipnal white robe of his order. When he's staying at the LBJ ranch in Texas, Johnson frequently attends Mais at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church at Stonewall, about two nrlea up the Pedemales River from his ranch. Its pastor is Fr. Wunibald Schneider, a Bavarian-born priest with a bwy German acpent.

Helen Thomas, a UP! White House reporter who spends many of lier Sunday mornings following the President to church, reports that Johnson participates fully in all tha ritual of the Mass, which he has learned quite well- However, he docs not go forward to receive communion, which in Catholic law is restricted to those who have been formally received j.nto the Will Johnson in time go all the and become a convert to Catholicism? a her (o EPHESUS SEVENIJI DAV ADVEOTIST CHURCH Calorado and Wright, pas(or, 334-3J36, Sabbath w'prshjii Hour II a.m. (Serv- ftffrt.QC}!
