The Altona Collegiate I.S.C.F. club has been functioning for a number of years. The letters I.S.C.F. stand for Inter-School Christian Fellowship. As the name implies, it is a club of Christian students who gather regularly to worship and fellowship with other young Christians. The motto of I.S.C.F. is “To know Christ and to make him known.” The local I.S.C.F. club is part of the central I.V.C.F. (Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship), which has clubs in thirty-three different countries of the world. Every Tuesday morning at 8:30 a number of members assemble in the school library for prayer meetings. The regular meeting is held that evening at 7:00 o’clock. Usually there are from thirty to thirty-five high school students present. Our meetings consist of Bible studies, socials, or programs in which members participate. Occasionally guest speakers are invited to address the group. Some of the speakers this year were Mr. George Ens, Rev. Gordon Denison, and Miss Hilde Leverton, the I.S.C.F. staff member for the Manitoba region. We have also had a very interesting series this year based on the topic of “What does Christ mean to me in my vocation.” Several local speakers spoke to us on this topic. They were: Mr. Henry Peters, teacher; Dr. Wm. Loewen, doctor; Mrs. Len Enns, nurse; Mr. C. N. Friesen, businessman; Mrs. Ted Friesen, housewife; and Mr. Henry Hoeppner, farmer. This series was very helpful and interesting to all those who attended the meetings. We also had some very enjoyable socials. We started the year with a big barbecue. Other socials were held at intervals throughout the year. At one of the socials the Winkler I.S.C.F. group presented a program. Other activities included the annual canvass of the town to raise funds for the Salvation Army’s Red Shield Appeal. At present, we are looking forward to the Southern Manitoba I.S.C.F. Conference, which is to be held at Camp Arnes on Lake Winnipeg. We pray that God will bless this conference and that he will continue to help and guide the different I.S.C.F. clubs all across the world. 56
