take part in the very heart of the missionary enterprise. The program of intercession for missions is carried on in our school by a number of prayer groups, each one centering their attention on the needs of a particular field. Anne Kotiadis, FMF secretary, distributes the reports from various mission boards and individual workers to the prayer group leaders, who in turn, tell of the work that is being carried on in that field and mention the items for which intercessory prayer is needed. Here is prayer at work. The powers of Heaven FMF is a nationwide fellowship. The program to foster an awakening of students to the call of evangeliz- ing the regions beyond is being carried out on many campuses all over the country. Whether students are recruited by the Master to go or to stay, they should all be recruited to pray faithfully. The future of the Chris- tian work which is now being carried out does not depend primarily upon streamlining methods or re- organization. It depends upon whether the Spirit of God can persuade believers to take up the all-important AN EXTENSIVE MEDICAL TRAINING, twelve years of missionary work in the Philippines, teaching missions in several Christian colleges, and directing missionary training camps qualified Dr. Paul G. Culley for his position of Director of the Graduate School of Missions and professor of missions and hygiene. Dr. Culley was led to the Lord at an early age by his mother. After attending the University of Pennsylvania, The Bible Institute of Los Angeles, and the Winona Summer School of Theology, Dr. Culley received his B.A. and later his M.A. from Cornell University. In 1925 he received his M.D. from Johns Hopkins University. Following a year ' s medical practice in this country, Dr. Culley went to Palestine for one year as a staff member of an archaeological expedition. In spite of all of this traveling and education. Dr. Culley still had not been able to find the one whom he believed to be God ' s choice for his life partner. It wasn ' t until 1934, after six years of missionary endeavor in the Philippines, that Dr. Culley married, in Manila, the lady who was later to become the instructor of hygiene and practical nursing at Columbia Bible College. Dr. Culley had a very fruitful ministry in the Philippines from 1928- 1940. Doing medical mission work, teaching at the Manila Evangelistic Institute, editing a monthly Bible magazine, directing a radio broadcast, and exploring new fields in the Philippines and New Guinea comprised the activities of this energetic servant of the Lord. Since his return to this country in 1940, Dr. Culley ' s time has been filled with teaching, preaching and directing missionary training as well as carrying on a medical practice. Veteran pioneer are at our disposal. The moment we bow in prayer for these laborers in the far-flung countries of the world, in that same instant this power to do the impossible becomes active in these people. Intercession for Alumni (260 now serving in the foreign countries) is aided by the publication and dis- tribution of a booklet listing their names and the fields on which they are laboring. A gift of money is also sent to these Alumni. The money is collected from banks placed in dormitory rooms.
