ROY BOTRUFF “As a boy I attended Sunday School., but as a young man 1 turned to my own way like so many others. At the age of twenty-one 1 came under the conviction of the Holy Spirit, and accepted Christ as my Saviour. This was followed by a period of indifferent and careless living until the Lord dealt with me regarding separation and service for Him. His first call was to a small country church where 1 ministered while continuing in secular work, but the Lord soon called me to a full time ministry, and eventually to B. B. I. for further preparation. Among other things, I have learned the lesson that those whom Cod thrusts forth to His harvest, never travel alone. FRED BRANDOU I thank God for His saving grace in saving, keep- ing and satisfying, and 1 praise Him even though faced at tiroes with affliction, suffering and tempta- tion. In Acts 20:24 we read, “None of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord Jesus, io testify ihe Gospel of the grace of God.” LOWELL BUSH Three years at B. B. 1. are finished, and blessed memories w ill ever linger in my heart. The days of exams, with the word “discuss from Mr. Quincer, and being on the spot with Mr. Dahl berg are over, but when it comes to study—I’m just learning how. I do thank God for His love and mercy to me here at school, and in drawing me nearer to Him, thus giving me the desire above all else to do and go where He leads. I know’ my God will he with me as He was with Joshua (1:9), “Whithersoever thou goest.” Fifteen

CLARENCE CALKINS What a Saviour we have in Jesus Christ! It is wonderful lo know LliaL God loved us so much that. He gave His only begotten Son for us. We know that He is interceding for us, and that He is com- ing again to receive us unto Himself because God’s word says that He will come again. The words of men are subject to error, but God’s word is without error, and always the same. In my mo- ments of depression my faith rests upon the fact that Christ is my Saviour, the Holy Spirit is my Comforter, and that God is my Father, and by God’s grace I will arise and do His will. FLORENCE EMPSON “As thou goest, step by step, I will open up the way before thee.” (Proverbs 4:12). It is with deep gratitude in my heart to God that I can praise Him lor His leading in my life. That He should choose me is beyond my comprehension, and all I can say is, “Thank thee. Lord, for saving my soul; thank thee. Lord, for making me whole.” The last three years have been precious ones. The patience and love shown by the instructors as they have sought to teach us concerning the things of Lire Lord have been the means of rich blessing to me. My prayer for the future is to be always found in the center of His will. GLENN EMPSON -‘The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in Him and I am helped; therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise Him.” (Psalm 28:7). It is hard to find words to praise One so great and good as God. It seems that the more we study His word, the greater He becomes, and the smaller we are. By His sover- eign choice and not because of any merit of my own He chose me to salvation from the beginning, and called me by the gospel in January, 1930. The instruction received here at B. B. I. and the Chris- tian fellowship of the students and faculty have been a real blessing to me. Sixteen
