GREETINGS FROM THE COLLEGE C H U R H The College Church has everywhere at our academies and colleges passed the stage of novelty and become an institution firmly bound up with the spiritual interests of the student. The work of the Christian churches among their transient constituents at the higher schools of learning has assumed larger and more sig- nificant proportions in recent years, and our Evangelical church is recognizing more and more the privilege as, well as responsibility of its work among its young men and women in academic life. St. Peter ' s Church in Elmhurst has always been known as the College Church in synodical circles, for ever since its foundation it has been closely associated with Elmhurst College and Academy. Its teachers have practically all been members of the church and its students, coming from Evangelical homes and traditions, have made St. Peter ' s their spiritual home during their days of resi- dence in Elmhurst. The College Church is proud of this distinction and deeply conscious of the responsibilities and opportunities involved. Particularly since the completion of its new building, equipped to meet the demands of a modern church organiza- tion, does it feel that it may make an appeal for student loyalty and fellowship with a new sense of pride and dignity. Students of our College and Academy will find here not only Evangelical worship carried on in an atmosphere of Evangelical traditions and vested in the ritual of Evangelical sentiment and appreciation, but besides they will meet that spirit of friendliness and warm camaraderie that means so much to the young man away from home. Opportunities for leadership, for service, and active participation in the broad program of congregational life are many. St. Peter ' s is rapidly coming to the front in Elmhurst as the church with not only a pronounced sense of denominational responsibility but with a definite consciousness of inter-denominational and community obligation as well. It is today recognized as the leader in all movements for closer harmony and greater unity among the Protestant forces of the city. A church with such a program may well claim the proud allegiance and willing cooperation of its young and adult membership. We extend a most cordial invitation to members of the faculty and student body to fraternize with us in the glorious privilege of our church program. The Church Council, St. Peter ' s Evangelical Church. 20
