EMMANUEL MISSIONARY COLLEGE BeRRIEN SPRINGS, MICHIGAN A CHURCH COLLEGE WITHOUT A CHURCH BUILDING For fifty-three years Emmanuel Missionary College has conducted Sabbath ser- vices in the college chapel or the gymnasium. It is true that many services have been held there which may be looked back on as wonderful seasons of refreshing. However, thousands of students have gone from this school without the deep-seated feeling that they have been to a Sabbath service in a building set apart for meeting with the Creator of the universe, a sacred place. The college buildings in which one has studied and recited hold precious memor- ies, but the place which stands out in the minds of the students who attended the old Battle Creek College is the tabernacle where they assembled for Sabbath services and the ordinances. They felt they were entering a building set apart for the worship of Cod. Their conversation changed, their thoughts were directed to spiritual subjects, and they left the church with the feeling that they had been in a hallowed place. This is what we should have at Emmanuel Missionary College, and in the near fu- ture a building is to be erected which will be associated in the minds of the students and the families living nearby with the presence of heavenly beings. The church congregation is to raise $90,000. During the last two years $37,000 of this has been raised. S. E. Wight 19
