DR. HERMAN A. HOYT ‘““A good name ...a wise man... gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient . . . an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity . . . a man. of under- standing . . . peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy . . . of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord . . . slow to anger ... patient toward all men. .. filled with the Spirit . . . filled with the fruits of righteousness . . . of an excellent spirit . . . sincere and without offense . . . a man that hath friends . . . stead- fast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord . . . perfect in every good work to do His will . . . in singleness of heart, fearing God .. . a faithful man .. . diligent . . . not slothful in business, fervent in Spirit, serving the Lord.”’ DR. ALUA J. McCLAIN | ‘Bring with thee . . . the books, but especially the parchments.’’ Thus wrote the Apostle Paul from _ his lonely cell in the Roman prison. Competent scholars suggest that the ‘‘parchments’’ were copies of portions of the Scriptures, and that the ‘‘books’’ were commentaries on the inspired Word of God, possibly from Paul’s own private library. From this we may learn that he was a lover of books. Even in prison, facing almost certain death, he was concerned primarily with his .reading and studies—a library in a prison cell! Here at Grace Seminary and College, a much more comfortable place, from the beginning we have been concerned with books: first, with the Book of books; and then around. it those lesser but important books which illuminate the pages of divine revelation in | both Scripture and Nature. And for all the students who pass through these halls, we are con- | cerned that they too shall become and continue to be lovers and users of such books to the end of their days. | Alva J.

Praise ' Testimony J No student at Grace will ever forget the great emphasis laid upon prayer. We try to heed the Scripture exhortation ‘‘Pray without ceasing’ because we believe and have seen that God answers prayer. Bob Munn, former graduate and now a mission- ary to France, spoke at the convocation service on Isa. 41:10, ‘‘Looking Unto Jesus.’’ At this service we sought the Lord’s blessing as school opened in September. Great spiritual refreshment and inspiration has been ours as we have sought God's guidance by prayer. Before witnessing for Christ Before class Prayer Room Dr. Albert Johnson Conservative Baptist Foreign Mission Society J. Robert Story Unevangelized Fields Mission Dr. Howard Sugden South Baptist Church, Michigan Dr. Monroe Parker Grace Baptist Church, Alabama Virgil R. Newbrander, Missionary to Japan “‘All-out warfare is vital for Christians”’ An important feature in the life of each Middler is the day he preaches in chapel. Students look forward to the day with mixed emotions. It is an experience never to be forgotten and one that is of great value and blessing not only to the young preacher but also to the sympathetic audience. Rev. Archie Lynn Roanoke, Va. Fall Bible Conference Speaker Various students take active part in street meetings on Saturday nights. 56 There are a number of Student- Pastors in the school. Giving forth the Word of Life is a vital part of Seminary training. Other students take an active part in the surrounding churches as songleaders, teachers, youth directors, and substitute preaching. Reading the ‘‘Word of Life’’ in a nursing home. There is no better time for students to begin a helpful and practical testimony than in their early and formative years. This will not only provide a useful outlet for things learned in the classroom but it will also make a spiritual contribution to society and the Lord’s work. PRACTICAL WORKS Spiritual help is 7 appreciated by hospital “ | patients. Students are urged to go out on Gospel teams. As students train now, it will help them be prepared later for the Lord’s full time service. An effective witness for Christ through the tract ministry. ee Among the Gospel teams traveling into Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana are the Grace Ambassadors composed of Bob and Dick Messner and Nancy Weber, their accompanist. They present various ‘‘musical packages” of both vocal and Harold Fuller instrumental numbers. Their greatest opportunity is in young people’s meetings PracticalaWorkel Director or rallies. The blessings are manifold as Christ honors the Word as it goes forth 57 and souls are saved.

Every Tuesday evening at 7:00, a group of interested students gathered in the chapel to hear a preaching chal- lenge concerning one of the mission fields of the world. Designated the “‘in- formational meeting,’’ these services provide up-to-the-minute facts from the far corners of the globe. Speakers dur- ing the year presented the needs of Africa, France, Germany, Greece, India, Japan, Brazil, Argentina, as well as others. Two scenes taken at the Informational Meetings. _ Africa, and Asia. Each group is headed Perhaps the most important responsibility the student has toward missions is prayer. Daily at twelve noon, students assemble to pray for N. America, S. America, Europe, by a leader interested in the field. “Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.’’ Many are called to the far corners of the earth; many are called to remain here at home; but all are called to hold the ropes for those who have gone forth. This is the purpose of World Mission Fellowship—to provide challeng- ing messages concerning various mission fields and to use the power line of prayer intelligently for those who have gone forth. Three scenes from the daily Intercession Meetings held in the chapel. The purpose of World Mission Fellowship is being met and the Great Commission is being obeyed by praying, giving, and going. In addition to the weekly Information Meetings, and the daily Inter- cession Meetings, several projects were undertaken during the year. A few of these were: sending Christmas cards to all the missionaries, and purchas- ing athletic equipment for the Bible Institute in Africa. W.M.F. provides a valuable outlet in the spiritual lives of the students.

Over a total of 7 days, 1900 miles rolled under the tires of each of the three cars, and 10 Brethren churches royally entertained the ambitious itin- erates, 38 college students were selected by audition at the beginning of the first semester to make up the 1955-56 Grace College Choir. A fun-loving and hard working group, the Choir met regularly two hours each week for practice, with many a called session . for final touches just prior to performances. They made three public appearances during the first semester, one off-campus, and the other two in special Thanks- giving and Christmas services in the College and Seminary Chapel. The highlight of the year for the Choir was a 12 day tour over the Easter season, which took 24 of the songsters into 16 Brethren churches of the East. A number of additional concerts were presented on succeeding Sundays in Indiana Churches. Bob Messner Christmas Program, Choir 61 CHAPLAINS’ FELLOWSHIP Sr L. Elphee, W. Tweedale, L. Walker, J.

The purpose of the Chaplain’s Fellowship is to acquaint the students of Grace with | the possibilities of Preaching the ‘“‘Word”’ in the armed services. aLumnt This year’s alumni conference was bigger and better than ever before, in spite of a last minute change of dates and the year’s heaviest snowfall. Alumni gathered from Indiana, Ohio, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and many other sections of the country to renew old friendships and form new ones. They also had the privilege of hearing the Bauman Memorial Lectures, given this year by Dr. Wilbur M. Smith. Another important feature of the week was an alumni banquet at the Westminster Hotel and the decision to provide outdoor lighting for our campus. The alumni are a great inspiration to every student, for, with their testimonies of how God is using them, they make us eager to finish our work and be out serving the Lord in a greater way. But they remind us also that careful preparation is essential and so they encourage us to study harder. Rev. Gordon Cook Winona Lake Baptist Church Rev.

A series of skits completed the activi- ties of the day, and when the final tally was made, the team led by Willa Leidy and Dick Messner had defeated the team of Janet Weber and Doug Cassel by a comfortable margin.

At these formal evening concerts we relax and enjoy some of the finest of music brought to us by men and women who are accomplished in the arts. Thus, while we indulge in a form of recreation we broaden our range of interests by learning to recognize and appreciate the classics of the masters and the skills of outstanding performers. This year’s schedule brought to Grace the gifted Brass Quintet of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, as well as two well known Christian artists, Marimbist, Jack Conner, and Baritone soloist, Colin Bray. : ae nt 050 rainy mre on de “ roe ae Lanes gore et Ly er at eel es A seven-day art exhibit featuring several local artists is mow successful history for Grace College.

Team at Shelton College Team Devotions GRACE BASKETBALL The highlight of the Grace Ambassador’s 1956 basket- ball season began January 28th as the team departed to tour several Eastern States. The first stop for the Grace group was in Findlay, Ohio, where the boys won their opener 104-96 against the Findlay Oiler ‘B’’ team. The next day the team ministered in two churches en- route further East, Ashland, Ohio, and Listie, Pennsylvania. There were testimonies, music, and a message from God’s Word given in each church. By Monday the Ambassadors had reached Ringwood, New Jersey, and were the gu ests of Shelton College. Here the Red and White from Winona Lake won their second straight contest, 60-50. . Tuesday there was Princeton Seminary and Grace’s first defeat on the tour to the tune of 93-59. By Wednesday the boys regained their winning ways and in an extremely ex- citing encounter with Philadelphia Bible Institute were vic- torious 70-69. Ambassador’s Quartet Behind at half-time? GOES Con Across town the group of thirteen met their fifth oppo- nent and won their fourth game 58-46, at Eastern Baptist Seminary. In Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, on Friday evening the Ambassadors were featured in a youth rally at the Melrose Garden Brethren Church and enjoyed a fine evening of fellowship. Saturday morning before leaving for Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, and their sixth game, the Grace group participated in a radio broadcast for thirty minutes. The team closed their week of basketball losing their finals 87-60 to a locally highly rated Geneva College.
