Every year at Atlantic Christian College one week is devoted with special emphasis on students’ growth in wisdom, stature, and favor with God and man. This is Religious Emphasis Week. This year the Reverend Beverly Asbury from the Zebulon Baptist Church was the main chapel speaker on the week’s theme “Man’s Search for Himself.” Every evening the students had the privilege of at- tending discussion groups led by the visiting members of the REW team. Rev. Asbury led a discussion on “The Christian and Public Opinion”; Anne Queen on “How Students May Act Effectively in Their College Communities”; A1 Payne on “What About Miracles”; and Harry Smith led a discussion on “Campus Gods on Trial.” Religious Emphasis Week was an inspiration to the students on A. C.’s campus, and was concluded with an impressive communion and consecration service. ELIGIOUS EMPHASIS WEE

Each student upon matriculation at A.C. automatically becomes a member of this association. For those students who desire to actively participate in S.C.A. activities, an im- pressive dedication ceremony is held at which time they may dedicate their services. This year there are 75 stu- dents holding active membership cards. Among the many special events sponsored by the S.C.A. this year were Religious Emphasis Week, Youth Week Program, World University Service Fund Drive, and Pre- Easter Week services. The S.C.A. also sent representa- atives to the United Nations Seminar held in New York City and to the National Assembly of YMCA’s and YWCA’s held at Lawrence, Kansas. Whether holding vesper serv- ices, discussion groups, fun nights, or sponsoring special events, the S.C.A. strives to provide a center for religious life and to promote Christian fellowship among the A.C. college family.
