There are times spent in the dorm you would rather forget — like those — nights you spent cramming for finals or that — paper you put off until the last minute and then stayed up all night in Alpha lobby to type it. Through the joys and the agonies, good rela- tionships are made strong with Ly other members of your dorm. There are also those evenings when the mess is swept under the bed, the desk is straighten- . - and the door is opened to welcome visitors “open dorms.” But once you have created — Ae positive false impression, said your good- byes, shut your door, and dragged out your mess to resume its usual position, dorm life can go on as normal, 12 Campus Life

Day of Prayer Grace College set aside two days during the 86-87 school year for the sole purpose of prayer. These days not only gave the students a needed break from their studies, but also an opportunity to focus on the things of the Lord. These were times of inward searching to set life priorities straight and times of looking out- ward toward the needs of others. During the spring semester Day of Prayer, our campus experienced heart revival through the powerful teaching of Mike Slater. He opened eyes to the Christian’s task if being a “stretcher bearer.’”’ He showed many ex- amples where God’s people saw their respon- | sibility to build up their brothers and sisters — by eliminating the secondary issues. He shared how God does the saving of souls and the healing of sick, but how His people can meet the needs of those by whom they’re sur- rounded. By sharing these truths, he opened eyes to the needs of others and called the students to be “stretcher bearers’ to one another. The love of Christ has become more evident on Grace campus since the meassages | by Mr. Slater. The students are praying that this work that strengthens the family of Christ should continue to be seendailyinlives. 14 Campus Life
