5A FaiweBl works sofffi.ein.iiin.2j fltnusig) Christian unity week NEW YORK (AP) Around the world," special service of prayer for Christian unity are being held these days by Protestant, Roman Catholics and Eastern Orthodox churches in many cases together. The period, Jan. 18-25. is the annual observance of the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, co-sponsored in this country by the National Council of Churches and the National Conference of Catholic Bishops. Methodist Bishop Philip Cousin of Birmingham, president of the National Council, cited numerous strides in 1983 toward Christian unity, and said: "Our prayer is that the power of the, cross, which brings us to oneness in Christ Jesus, will also serve to bring the Christian church into oneness as we work, love, labor and hope together." By George W.

Cornell Associated Press Although some causes of the religious right so far have foundered in Congress the Rev. Jerry Falwell still has high expectations for them, particularly if President Ronald Reagan stays in office. The television evangelist and Moral Majority leader, his public image tempered since he first mobilized religious conservatives Into politics and behind Reagan in 1980, says "he's strongly supporting him again. "He has not reneged on a single thing," Falwell says. "With hire In the White House for a second term, we'd see some dramatic things in the cause of traditional values." Concerning the general views of religious conservatives toward Reagan in this election year, he added: "I'm sure he'll have their total support.

He's never pulled back his commitment on moral issues." It was among the strongest statements yet by a major figure in the conservative religious camp backing Reagan, despite setbacks to many of its objectives in his first term. "We're going to do everything we can to help him," Falwell said. Moral Majority, which Falwell terms a citizens-action arm apart from his television ministry, is gearing up for the 1984 campaign, both behind Reagan and various legislative candidates. The organization now reports 6.6 million Protestant, Roman Catholic and Jewish members, including 85,000 priests, pastors and rabbis, with chapters in all SO states. Falwell's initial bouts in the social-political arena four years ago drew harsh attacks from critics, caricaturing him as a "bigot" or "ayatollah," but he said reactions have become "more reasonable." While his charm and wit once were mainly known only within his own circle of "ft makes for i combination, It's 1 very thing rsicad t.

Jerry Falwell followers, he has widely expanded that impression by a broad lecture circuit, including Ivy League campuses. "He is winning a lot of friends," said a public relations spokesman, Duane Ward. "He's no longer seen as a wild-eyed pirate." Except for weekends, when his "Old-Time Gospel Hour" is broadcast from his pulpit at the Thomas Road Baptist Church in Lynchburgh, Falwell spends most of his time on the road, giving 20 to 25 speeches a week.

"In the last year, most of the media has become more fair," he said. "Not that they're more in agreement with me, but more respectful." He said a similar toning down has come among liberal church critics, such as those in mainline denominations in the National Council of Churches. "It's a matter of their disagreeing without being disagreeable," he said. "I give them an 'A for recognizing that First Amendment rights of free speech belong to all people, not just to one side."

Reagan "personally introduced the school prayer amendment, and he would have done the same thing about abortion if the pro-life camp had gotten its act together," Falwell said. "They were fighting over wording." But he added they now are "very close" to a unified approach, and predicted that if Reagan gets a second term, a human life amendment will succeed. He also said "we can reverse the proliferation of pornography in this country and drive Playboy, Penthouse and Hustler back into the dark recesses of the pool hall where they belong." Noting that feminists are oddly allied with conservatives in that cause, he said: "It makes for a very odd combination.

But it's the very thing needed to bring together co-belligerents against exploitation of women to work on moral issues.

Swomly, a church-state specialist of Saint Paul School of Theology in Kansas City, said it is "a terrible thing for the United States to begin to have diplomatic relations with a church or all churches."

Larry Kocha prior to coming to Ra- nedy, last fall at Liberty Baptist College which Falwell beads in Lynchburgh, also heightened his reputation as a respectable contender. "It helped greatly," he said. "Some of the media seemed to think it would turn into a virtual fist fight. But Senator Kennedy said he felt it was one of his most delightful experiences." Falwell's talks at civic clubs, churches, pro-life rallies and to professional groups have increasingly included university campuses. He said response there "has been very positive, very warm." He cited appreciative receptions at Princeton, Yale, Dartmouth and others, adding, "The vast majority of kids are so much more conservative, more so than their parents." Only at Harvard, he said, did heckling chants, calling him "racist," try to drown him out and stop him from speaking.

"A rude bunch," Falwell remarked. He says that his own congregation has a higher percentage of blacks than Harvard. But the brickbats generally have thinned. The prolonged, continual picketing of his church in Lynchburgh has ceased. Most critical letters are more reasoned.

Ward said, although Falwell still gets about 200 mailed threats a year. Although some religious conservatives have complained that Reagan hasn't sufficiently pushed their agenda, Falwell said the difficulty instead has been differences Reactions continue on WASHINGTON (AP) Mixed Protestant reactions continued this week to action by the U.S. government to restore full diplomatic relations with the Vatican.
