From The Staff I N Psalm 80:8-9 we read Thou hast brought a vine flsraeli out of Egypt, Thou hast cast out the heathen and planted it. Thou preparest room before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the Iand. As Israel was God's earthly people, so Christians are His heavenly people. As Israel was brought out of Egypt, so you Seniors were brought out of the world. As God prepared room for Israel, so God has prepared room for you here at the Practical Bible Training School. As Israel took root and filled the land, so grad- uates of P .B.T.S. have gone to the ends of the earth because they were prepared. All preparation is not necessarily received in the class room. Many phases of it come from the homelike atmosphere of the Dormitory where the student learns to live harmoniously with others, respecting ideas of someone other than self. It often necessitates taking the place of a follower rather than always being a leader. Another phase of your preparation comes from learning to work about the school, often doing the dis- tasteful tasks assigned to you. There is much repairing and mending that you have learned to do when you would no doubt have preferred to work with new materials. But God was preparing you through this for some sphere of service He has planned for you. Your preparation would have been incomplete without learning to share the ioys, sorrows and problems of new-found friends. Your prayer life was deepened by these experiences perhaps more than by the actual study of the power of prayer.in the class room. Although many staunch friends were left at home when you came, the bond of Christian friends made here shall last forever. Surely God did prepare room for you here. We pray your preparation has taken deep root so that you will fill the land with the Gospel' which is the power of God unto Salvation. To The Staff T O you the staff, the members of the Class of 1953 wish to express our most sincere appreciation for your labor of love, and work of faith. Your consistent Christian lives have been a real source of inspiration to us as students, that we might strive to Iive closer to our wonderful Saviour. Sometimes when problems and burdens oppressed us, it was a blessing to know you and to talk with you, knowing that you had experienced the same problems and burdens. Your guidance and encouragement was something that will help us in the field of service that God has called us to. Your faithfulness to Christ and to the School has enabled us to more fully enioy the training we received here. We do thank you for the prayers uttered in our behalf. As God hath placed you here, we are praying that God will give you many more years of service here at Practical Bible Training School. We leave you now, but we can look forward to that day when we will be reunited in the presence of our lovely Lord and Saviour. That will be glorious to see the One who made our training and this blessed fellowship possible. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.
