GARY COLLINS WE DEDICATE THIS SPIRE. . . .. because of his Christian testimony, his superior intelligence, his exuberant personality, and his overall interest and concern for Bethel as an institution and as a community. Bethel is indeed fortunate to have within its ranks a man as dedicated and useful as Psychologist. Dr. Gary Collins. A Canadian citizen, Dr. Collins was born Oct. 20. 1934 and attended both grade and high school in Canada. In his early childhood he accepted Christ and while in high school committed his life at a Youth for Christ rally. He also served in the Canadian navy as a navigation instructor. He wrote his thesis for his P.H.D. on areas of conflict between Christianity and Psychology, and he earned his degree in 1963. Following this he felt called to go to seminary and attended Western Seminary in Oregon. Before coming to Bethel in 1964 with his wife Julie, a registered nurse. Dr. Collins served in a number of positions. He was a graduate teacher assistant at the University of Toronto, a teacher of Psychology at the University of Maryland, and a graduate teacher assistant at Purdue. Dr. Collins is held in high esteem by those at Bethel and has also earned a meritable position with the American Psychological Association, American Scientific Affliation, Canadian, Oregon, and Minnesota Psychological Associations, and the fraternity Sigma Xi. He is an active member in the Student Personnel Committee and the faculty Personnel Policies Committee. In addition to this he is also an active church member at the Central Free Church. The Spire staff was unanimous in judging Dr. Collins as a superior fellow possessing a high level of constructively channeled physical and intellectual energy. This opinion is believed to be widely shared, and thus Dr. Collins is honored with the dedication of this SPJKS1968. A friend ICS PEOPCE administration This marks President Lundquist’s fifteenth year of leadership on Bethel's campus. Together with the vice-presidents, our president carries out the business, the public, and the educational affairs of Bethel College. He also devotes a great amount of time representing Bethel and carrying on a Christian ministry in our churches. Being at Bethel these particular fifteen years has been an exciting adventure of faith in the development of the new campus and a stimulating partnership with the keenest, sharpest kids I’ve ever known.” President Lundquist expresses his ideas and feelings about campus life many times a day. PRESIDENT Contemplation. 14 m Vice Presidents Burton Wessman and Harvey DeVries get a chuckle out of an economic magazine. Comptroller Ken White relaxes as he ends another hard day of work. VICE PRESIDENTS and DEANS The main concern of the deans of Bethel is that of over-all climate among Bethel students. This year more responsibility was given to those students living in off-campus apartments along with the opening of a new apartment house. Office doors are always open to those individuals who seek guidance and counselling. Our deans act as advisors for student activities on campus and carry out disciplinary measures when necessary. Our vice presidents serve as administrative advisors to our president. These men head the various phases of business and public affairs. They meet weekly with the president to discuss administrative matters. Lee Kajuniemi, Dean of Men. and Doc Dalton. Dean of Students show disgust as Miss Starr. Dean of Women, can’t seem to end her conversation. (Typical woman!) Registrar, Dr. Findlay, always has time to chat with students. IS CAMPUS PASTOR As Campus Pastor. Dr. Al Glenn plans and directs most chapel services. He also enables students to find areas of Christian service in which they can become involved while studying at Bethel. Pastor Glenn's ministry at Bethel is much appreciated by students. He is always easy to approach when one desires help or encouragement in his spiritual life or in other areas as well. His genuine concern for students makes him a popular figure at Bethel. DEAN OF THE COLLEGE Dr. Walter Wessel has served the last year as acting Dean of the College. He views his administration activities of this past year as having given him a chance to work with the faculty on a different level than before. His experience here has given Dr. Wessel a deep appreciation of the dedication and work of the faculty. All at Bethel are grateful for the dedication of Dr. Wessel himself and the great job he has done in this position. 16 OFFICES Mr. Perry Hedberg Mr. Howard Rekstad Mr. Graydon Held Florence Oman, Secretary to the President.

Mrs. Margaret Anderson plans and prepares a delicious menu for each day and is assisted by waitresses and part time student help. Mr. Bob Bergurud spends many hours each week and all summer keeping the bookstore in order and the stock filled to attract student and faculty bargain hunters. The bookstore also employs outside help as well as students. Mrs. Henrietta Ludwigson. 19 REGISTRAR’S OFFICE The Registrar’s Office is always very busy receiving and approving applications for new students, registration and time schedules for classes, making preparations for seniors and graduation exercises, and keeping track of students’ academic progress throughout their career at Bethel. This year the office initiated something new — grades were computed on campus rather than being sent out to be computed. Dr. Findlay gives instructions to his secretary. ACCOUNTING OFFICE Nola Port helps out with some extra typing. Miss Gustavson demonstrates the procedure to Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Swenson. Mrs. Cathy I orvick and Mrs. Ruth Iblings work at computers. The Accounting Office takes care of the financial end of a college education. This office also uses the services of the com puter. Mr. Head took the office of Comptroller sec ond semester. Mr. Head is already busy at his new job. Secretaries from the south end decorate their office for Christmas. Come on, now! STUDENT SERVICES OFFICE Financial Aids officer. Mrs. Betty Hardle chats with John Akinwale. Secretaries Lyn Jahnke and Nannette Ward try to get caught up before vacation. POST OFFICE The Student Services office is where students go when they don’t know who else to ask. This office is like a central information center which, if it cannot furnish the desired information, will usually be able to direct students to the correct person or office. This office furnishes information about student employment, financial aid, counselling, and generally what is happening at Bethel. Receptionist. Judi Olson has many talents! Do you think you can handle it? l yn asks. That's the last of it for another day! Two of the most dedicated people at Bethel labor quietly in the basement of the College Building filling the P.O.'s with goodies. Mr. Olson and Mrs. Danielson also take care of sending out mail for individual offices or departments. Mrs. Danielson cheerfully waits on a student. CUSTODIANS Carl Ostrom with Rueben Johnson, Keith Tekautz, and Harold Watkins. (also below). Mr. Rueben Johnson 22 SWITCHBOARD OPERATOR FOODSERVICE Faith Karlsson Picnics are part of it too! Cleaning is pan of the job. PUBLIC AFFAIRS Mr. Wayne Frickson, assistant manager Mrs. Jesse Dean, secretary. Mr. Howard Rckstad 23 ANTHROPOLOGY A fairly new department in Bethel’s curriculum, anthropology is a fast-growing field. Anthropologists have done research, conducted archeological expeditions, and explored ancient relics and civilizations which contribute to understanding the human race of today. Courses in anthropology give students a broader idea of foreign peoples and ancient civilizations. Missionaries have also benefited from this field immensely. Yeah? asks Tim. Mr. Claude Stipe Dr. Donald Larson discusses his field with visiting missionaries. 26 ART In view of the popularity of the courses offered, art is fast becoming a mode for expression among Bethel students. Studies in classic and contemporary' art form a solid background for future teachers and preparatory graduate work. Fine Art students as well as art students exhibit individual talents through paintings, drawings, ceramics, and sculpture. Works of students and faculty have been displayed at various times in the Coffee Shop and in the Seminary Hall. Is that possible? queries Mr. Robert Nelson. Mr. Eugene Johnson also looks wonderingly. The product of an aspiring young artist displayed in the Coffee Shop. BIOLOGY Human structure and the origin of life shape the foundation in Biological Sciences. General Biology offers an introduction, through examination of species and organisms, to the world that God has created. Much insight and experience is gained in the laboratories. Scientific methods are applied by biology majors in such fields as human anatomy and physiology, microbiology, and gc netics. Dr. Paul Christian Mr. Russel Johnson Mr. Jack Buss offers help during dissection section. CHEMISTRY Chemistry is still a vague field in many ways. It offers much room for researchers and those interested in correlating chemistry with biology or other sciences. General chemistry provides a broad picture of the numerous phases chemistry has to offer. Chemistry majors are able to teach, do research, or go on to graduate work. Many long hours are spent in the Chemistry lab. DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL SCIENCE AND MATHEMATICS A knowledge of physical sciences is gained by students through the text, research, discussion, and experimentation. Bethel offers introductory courses to the physical universe for nonscience majors as well as a major in physics. Through studies in math, students become more conscious of the value of an analytical attitude and of precise thinking. Insight and skills are gained in its application to the sciences. Some math majors respond to the urge to communicate their enthusiasm for the subject by teaching in secondary schools and colleges. This type of study requires intense concentration. Dr. Philip Carlson � aw r-1 C� Cl la H r la Mr. Paul Redin Dr. Arthur Lewis Dr. Al Glenn CHRISTIANITY With the addition of Mr. Robert Goulick to the program of theology, the Department of Christianity has been able to expand into new areas of Christian study. The Freshmen Bible Literature course has been divided into New Testament and Old Testament classes. These allow the students to achieve detailed studies in the scriptures. Other Christianity courses offered study the Bible in literary form, the movements in the modern church, and the association of the scriptures and historical findings. Dr. Walter Wcssal Mr. Robert Goulick 30 EDUCATION Student National Education Association Mr Lyle Hill at Bethel Dr. Junet Runbeck (left) The program of teacher education includes a planned sequence of courses in professional training for teaching, correlated with a series of laboratory experiences beginning in the freshman year and culminating in the student teaching experience in the senior year. The professional training parallels and is correlated with the mastery of one or more subject matter fields in depth. 31 ENGLISH Society requires varied skills in all fields-. Bethel desires to give every student an above average proficiency of the English language. The Department of English concentrates on those literary artists who have touched the emotional and aesthetic senses of man as well as his intellect. A new experimental program has been started for the freshmen called Literary Analysis.” The aim of this program is to develop an appreciation and understanding of literature through overall critical approaches. Mr. Robert Bcrgerud Mr. Chris Weint2 Miss Jeannine Bohlmcycr. Mrs. Mary Sodegren. Dr. Max James, and Mr. Jon Fagerson. Mr. Gerald Healy (right) 32 FOREIGN LANGUAGE The ever-expanding foreign language department is a sound building block in Bethel's foundation of learning. The department gives elementary and secondary teachers the skills and techniques which enable them to understand and teach foreign language and to expose students to another culture. Along with foreign languages come foreign students. These individuals not only widen their own scope of understanding, but also broaden the insight of Bethel’s community as a whole. Also with foreign languages comes a daily trip to the language lab where the student's skill and understanding is sharpened as he hears the language spoken in its native tongue. Miss Lillian Ryberg The Language House is frequented by students taking a foreign language. 33 Dr. James Johnson feels secure” when surrounded by girls! Mr. Olaf Olson looks over his latest bear of a test HISTORY The Department of History seeks to accomplish its purpose by furthering the student’s comprehension and understanding of the past in order that he may effectively apply it to the future. Men in history are evaluated by what they were. Through their successes and failures, modern man is challenged to be every thing that he is as well as everything that he can be. Events of the past are evaluated by the effect their results are having on the present situation. The good of these courses is to encourage the student to develop his thinking in such a way that he can contribute his thoughts and ideas helpfully to society. Doc Dalton wonders which book to quote in his next lecture. Mr. Ward preparing a lecture for Western Civ. 34 Political Science majors, such as Dale Rendahl, must keep up with what is going on in the world. The Political Science Department is growing in popularity among students, probably partially due to an increased importance placed on knowledge of world and domestic politics. The courses offered give the students an insight on how the But you have to look at it from this point of view. protests Mr. Dwight Jessup. policies are made and the motivating influences on decisions. These courses help the students make observations and decisions on these matters intelligently. Congressman Joseph Karth (Minnesota) talks with Bethel students in D. C. 35 MUSIC Mr. Robert Beverly The Music Department at Bethel becomes better and more proficient every year. This year, after many years of consideration and planning, the Bethel Band was able to go on tour for five days in Minnesota and Wisconsin. They also purchased blazers to wear while on tour to give a more uniform appearance. I he College Choir is going on tour to Europe in the summer of 1968 as well as on their regular tour in the United States. The Music Department has always been an asset to Bethel and it still has as its chief goal that of producing superbly trained and qualified individuals, and to ultimately provide church workers and leaders who will display and instill the desire for excellence.

Norene Shephard 37 PHYSICAL EDUCATION Coach Mo Shields Girls' Physical Education class. The Physical Education Department contributes to both the immediate and future needs of the student through an understanding of physical activity and its relation to the human body. Emphasis is placed on developing skills, increasing knowledge, and improving attitudes which should enable each student to plan and implement the type of physical activity program that will best serve his needs. The Department seeks: I) to help the individual become more physically efficient through athletic activities, 2) to encourage social efficiency through practical application of Christian and democratic principles in recreational activities, and 3)to integrate the development of good health habits, athletic skills, attitudes, and appreciation into the Christian character of the individual. The Department also offers intercollegiate and intramural athletics. The intramural program offers a wide variety of team and individual sports and the intercollegiate program is carried on in such sports as football, basketball, baseball, and track. This year the game of soccor was introduced on the intercollegiate level. Miss Marilyn Starr 38 39 PHILOSOPHY What is the meaning of life? Who am I? What is love?” Philosophy initiates serious and critical study to questions such as these. It is an intellectual discipline for the minds of students seeking significant answers to the many idealogies thrown out in our world today. The Department of Philosophy aims to develop correct reasoning and clear thinking among its students. Dr. Bob Dr. Robert Smith,Chairman of the Department of Philosophy, and Dr. Arthur Lewis. Senior Philosophy major. Bob Holyer. and Lynn Bergfalk. Clarion Editor, participate in forum on Student Power. PSYCHOLOGY Do you see the point? asks Dr. Collins. This year the Phychology Department introduced a fairly new concept of teaching Pschology to Bethel’s curriculum — programmed learning. Also in the General Psychology course a new program was set up whereby the student studied General Psychology for one-third of the semester and the other two-thirds were spent learning about two specialized aspects of Psychology. The Department of Psychology has a three-fold purpose: to help the student gam an understanding of the basic concepts of this science; to give him a better understanding of himself and his fel-lowmen to qualify him for further study in the field. Is that right? ’ asks Lee Bajunierni. Mr. Royal Bloom files some of the sophomore test scores. Mr. Bajunierni and Mr. Bloom exchange comments on that last lecturer. 41 SOCIAL SCIENCES Dr. Moberg Mr. David Radell Dr. Don Larson and Dr. David Moberg Social Sciences present factual material clearly and lead the student to associate logically this material in the process of acquiring a well-balanced education. Students in this department gain a background for critical and constructive” thinking in local, national and world citizenship problems. Stimulation for further research or graduate work is also gained. Included in the Department of Social Sciences are courses in economics, geography, sociology, and social work. Dr. Robert Underwood 42 SPEECH Mr. Frederick Lund The Speech Department offers students opportunities to develop extensive skills in oral communication. Communication problems are explores in depth by interested students. Areas covered in the department include rhetoric and public address, oral interpretation, and drama. The department also attempts to acquaint students with various ideas related to communication, and gives much opportunity to practice what has been learned. You must be persuasive”. Mr. James I.

The annual weekend affair started on a high note as new friends crowded together on the buses heading for Big Trout Lake. Anticipation built as Bethel faculty members jovially welcomed the class of '71 with discussions on becoming an educated person.” From the baffling seminars on extra-curricular activities, Frosh boys found a release for pent-up energy and set a precendent by defeating the staff in the traditional football game. The sober and monumental task before them was brought to mind as the chapel organ sounded the dirge, calling Freshmen to the capping ceremony. Once again boarding the buses, weary freshmen and their omnipresent beanies headed for Bethel and the taunts of waiting upperclassmen. WELCOME WEEK INTRODUCES STUDENTS TO BETHEL LIFE Registration on September 13 might have been a significant omen to the superstitious. To freshmen and transfer students, it was a sudden awakening to the systematic bustle of life at Bethel. Long lines and unknown advisors added extra complications to the already bewildering procedure of scheduling classes and filling out forms. Friday night Moods provided a welcome diversion after the first two days of class. Dramatic readings set a tone of seriousness, while folk music lent a lighter touch to the reflections of the evening. Freshmen solidified their status as a unit within the school as they mingled at the Welcome Week Mixer. The opening week culminated with the hard-fought football battle between the Royals and Hamline. 99 A CLOSER TOUCH A speaker moved by the Holy Spirit, a whispered prayer, a discussion of God's holy Word, and precious fellowship one with another — all are a vital and essential part of Bethel College. Becoming closer to the Lord Jesus Christ is one of the most unique and wonderful experiences a Christian can have. Because of Bethel and its spiritual programs, numerous students have come to realize the dynamic and contemporary power of Jesus Christ in their own life this year. 100 Faculty and missionaries stop for coffee and chat. Finale with Herbert Skoglund. THY KINGDOMCOME, THY WILL BE DONE . . . Discussions of contemporary missions. ’Have fun today, tomorrow may be called off.1 is met with a prayer, a supplication, which holds the answer to this world’s present needs. This, the theme of World Missions Week, added to the discussions and talks in chapel, classrooms, dormitory wing meetings. and coffeeshop chats. With men from Japan, Brazil. India, Philippines. Ethiopia. Mexico, and the United States, students were well supplied with facts of exactly what the Church of Jesus Christ is accomplishing. Discourses such as 'New Men with New Media. and Scratch Where it Itches” are just a few enlightening topics of llte week. Also featured during that period were the Royal Players. California Dreamers, and informative documentaries on mission work. 101 HOMECOMING ’68. . . .. float judging ... Thursday evening bonfest and coronation ...

The fieldhouse hosted Bethel’s Halloween festivities this year where a carnival-like theme contributed to the autumn atmosphere. A half-dozen booths, managed by colorful vendors dotted the gym floor and offered participants the chance to test various skills in the quest for fun and prizes. Students came and went through-out the evening, criss-crossing the gym as they wandered among the different attractions, touring the fun-house, and enjoying the refreshments provided. In addition to these activities musical entertainment for the evening was provided by the California Dreamers. The unsuspecting Bethel male and the November bark of the Nik Dag provided a week-end of peculiar fun and excitement for all concerned. For one time during the year the tensions and responsibilities of dating must be borne by the Bethel maiden. They themselves must solve the problems of catching their man and planning what to do with him after the hunt. Activities provided on campus make planning easier, however, and Nik Dag 1967 was highlighted by a band concert on Friday night and a variety of entertainment on Saturday featuring the Music Projections,” a singing group from the University of Minnesota. SNO — DAZE February found girls eagerly anticipating a formal affair and men desperately trying to grow the best beard on campus. Various activities all planned around the Sno — Daze theme, Icelandic Fscapade, were packed into two days. The judging of the snow sculptures Friday afternoon began the festivities. Friday evening the big event happened. At the formal banquet held at the North-Star Inn, Sue Kennerud became the Sno Princess for I96S. Other activities of the weekend included the beard judging, the International Traying Contest, a smorgasbord, and a party on Saturday evening. OF THE HOLY SPIRIT bveryone enjoyed themselves at the opening night banquet. Dr. William Widen Rev. Milo Nixon Dr. Robert Smith FOUNDERS WEEK... 1968 Fresh winds of the Holy Spirit” swept the Bethel campus during the gathering of the 25th Annual Founders Week. This theme expressed the desire of over one thousand participants to feel anew the invigorating force of God’s work through them. Speakers of the week challenged founders and students to open closed windows and let the twentieth century church come alive through personal committment. Dr. John Wesley White, a Billy Graham Associate, expressed the need for urgency in challenging contemporary lives. Mrs. Eleanor Whitney, a former opera performer, sang and called for individual surrender to God’s Spirit. Seminars offered choices ranging from doctrinal studies to trends of revivalism. Dr. Theodore Epp summarized the missionary overtones of the week at the closing rally. The students and founders mingled across the campus life. Enthusiasm reached a peak as the Royal basketballers crushed Northwestern. Dr. and Mrs. Lundquist were recognized for Fifteen years of leadership in the Bethel community. The first Edwin Omark Preaching Competition expressed a new challenge to Seminary students to be the man of God communicating the Word of God.” An integral part of Bethel’s unique atmosphere is experienced during Holy Week and Deeper Life Week. Each year these weeks are set aside with emphasis on living the Christian life. Special meetings and speakers fill the weeks, but it is the individual student who determines the success of such a week. -i One of the highlights of the Royal Players organization is the Easter Tour. The six-member cast along with director advisor Dale Rott. went to the East Coast their ultimate destination being New York. The play, Sacrifice III” dramatized the average church member’s complacency and disinterest. 119 The Bethel Royal Players offer the Bethel community an opportunity for cultural expression and experience. Their six major productions were aimed to enhance student life and proclaim the good news of Christianity through the medium of dramatic art. Drama offered entertainment, as well as many soul-searching renditions of the responsibilities and privileges of the Christian life. New Talents initiated the activities of the Drama Department with the presentation of three short dramas. Under the direction of students Bruce Lawson, Randy Inouye, and Mary Ruetten, ''Inspector General, King Sol, and The Search” were dramatized. Inspector General” was an entertaining comedy, but the other two plays offered a challenge of responsibility to Christians. Shortly after New Talents, the annual Homecoming production was staged. Man 67” concerned itself with the conflicts of materialism and Christianity. An insight to a unique type of drama was given in Dave Stagg’s production of Japanese drama. An unusual feature of the production was the effect of theater-in-the-round, a new experience for Bethel actors and audience alike. 121 ■V Talent found many diverse meanings in the life of Bethel. The massive Festival Choir gathered in the flickering candles of Christmas to give melodic meaning to the intangible blessings of the season. Dr. Johnson, on behalf of SPAN, brought Ethel Waters to Bethel in a moving concert of song and testimony. “I une Tangle'’ pitted class against class in a novelty competition of voice and spirit. The Juniors provided loudest and Ed Willmington accepted the acclaim of the judges on behalf of the enthusiastic third-year students. Talent Night gave aspiring performers a taste of the big time. Miss White Bear Lake gave Bethel students a glimpse of competitive talent in her performance of her pagaent entry. 124 COLLEGECHOIR Director Dr. Robert Berglund pr — r College Choir Cabinet Terry Port 126 WOMEN’S CHOIR BAND 128 A time to practice, a time for conversation, a time for performance — then a time for fun — on tour— sight-seeing, bus-riding, eating, and just getting to know fellow performers better — all of this is experienced when you are in the Bethel Band. Mr. Julius Whitinger 131 FRESHMAN SOPHOMORE BANQUET The Freshman-Sophomore Banquet was held at the Thunderbird Motel. The evening was highlighted by a somewhat different program for a banquet in that it featured Dr. Eddie Thomas, pianist, and Mr. Bill Pierce, trombonist, in a sacred concert. The theme was accentuated by the profusion of paper flowers throughout the dining room. Mr. Lee Bajuniemi, master of ceremonies, sparked added interest throughout the evening with his brilliant wit. 132 JUNIOR SENIOR BANQUET The Junior-Senior Banquet this year took place at the scenic Steamboat Inn at Prescott, Wisconsin, on the St. Croix River. Yet it was the scenery and program inside that made the evening. Fitting background for a Tahitian Tiki added to the enjoyable affair. An entertaining jazz combo rounded out the festivities. 133 ALL SCHOOL The event which drew together more Bethel students than any other (except of course, chapel) was the annual All School Banquet. A major factor contributing to this could be that there was no charge. However, this did not prevent the evening from being one of the biggest successes of the year. Following a delicious meal in the Dayton Skyroom, all proceeded to the auditorium for the program. Music and skits about life at Bethel provided a fitting end to another year at Bethel. 134 BANQUET 135 COMMENCEMENT Once again Bethel students stood in line. But this line was rather special, for it was the last line they would stand in at Bethel as students. These young men and women were waiting to receive acknowledgement of their years of hard study.

Jim Carlson Bill Ledkins Jim Hammar Nelda Gustafson WHAT IS A CONFERENCE BAPTIST A hile the ideal Conference Baptist shares the ’ ’ fooling of tho Apostle Paul that he is far from having reached full spiritual maturity, ho is pressing on toward that goal in the light of Now Testament standards which constitute a dynamic uplifting influence upon his life. His own Christian journey bogan with God's miracle of the new birth. Awareness of his personal salvation has imparted to him both a sense of cortainty and an evangelistic zeal. He has bocomo so genuinely concerned about the need of all men to acknowledge Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord of their livos that he participates actively in the world of tho church and witnesses personally about Christ to those with whom he comes in contact. His witness is strengthened by a genuine commitment to the Lordship of Jesus Christ in which everything in life has bocomo important to him only in its relationship to Christ and His kingdom. His personal life has a warm contagious quality, reflecting the presence of the Holy Spirit through such characteristics as lovo. joy, peaco, longsufforing, gentloness. goodness, meekness, faith, and self-control. He has made the Bible his standard for faith and conduct and is growing in his Biblical knowledge. The Affirmation of Faith of the Baptist Genoral Conference is for him a helpful summary of the major teachings of tho Word of God which hos become the handbook of his life. Ho is now as much at heme in the unseen spiritual world as in the material world. He has discovered devotional exercises which assist him to live in both of these worlds at the samo timo. His quiet time with God serves to deepen his ultimate impact for Christ upon socioty. Ho bolongs to the whole church of Jesus Christ. Whllo ho is a conscientious momber of a Baptist General Conference church and participates in its worship, witness, and service with conviction and enthusiasm, he numbers as his brothors and sisters in the Lord all who lovo Jesus Christ whatever moy be their denominational affiliation, racial background, or cultural standing. Consequently, he desires that his work in his church contribute to the whole body of Christ. f course, no Conference Baptist completely fulfills this ideal. But the mission of tho Baptist Genoral Conference is to lead an increasing number of poop e throughout the world to begin this journoy by personal commitment to Jesus Christ and then to assist oil to grow in the achievement of those spiritual goals.
