Christian service was always held before me as the highest call- ing. Most of my young life I felt that, like my Father, I would like to be a pastor. I went to college in- tending to prepare myself to enter Grace Theological Seminary, and I elected the church music major be- cause of my special interests in that field and because I thought it would complement the pastoral program in seminary. I entered the seminary in 1950, and began teach- ing music part-time. Upon my graduation from seminary, I be- came a full-time instructor in the music department. My 38 years of ministry in the classroom, the rehearsal hall, and the church platform have been ex- tremely fulfilling and rewarding. My greatest satisfactions have been in the feeling that God has given me a unique opportunity to guide musical servants in being more-ef- fective in musical ministries, and in giving me close relationships with a vast number of quality Christian people, now spanning several gen- erations. | suppose my greatest earthly love is people; next is mu- sic. Making music with people has given me a sense of belonging to them and feeling they belong to me — a treasure I could never buy, but was given to me along with the salary I have been paid for doing what I love the most. Moving to the Alumni Depart- ment will not end my involvement with music and musicians; it will, however, give me opportunities for strengthening ties with the people I have known and appreciated through more than five decades of continuous learning and sharing with others what God has given me. I face my final weeks in ‘my department” with gratitude for what the Lord and Grace Schools have given me in these 38 richest of years, and in amazement that I should have been so blessed.

Through a college pro- gram developed as an outcropping of Professor Ken Taylor’s involve- ment in Prison Fellowship. This ministry marks our instructors as a unique group of people, as well as giving the inmates at the Michigan City prison an opportunity to re- ceive college credit. Among those who have been or are presently involved in this ministry are Dr. Theodore Hildebrandt, Dr. W. Merwin Forbes, Dr. Robert Mathisen, Professor Kenneth Tay- lor, Nurse Joan Taylor, and Chap- lain Roy Roberts. Chaplain Roy Roberts, at one time, worked in the home office of Prison Fellowship as the Director of Church Relations, and also led many discipleship seminars. Pr ofessor Ken Taylor is currently the coordinator of the Michigan Ci- ty program, serves on the state ad- visory committee, and along with his wife Joan, conducts marriage and discipleship seminars through- out the country for Prison Fellow- ship. Ample opportunities have arisen for student involvement as well. Many have served internships at the Westville Correction Center — assisting the chaplain, aiding a counselor, and helping to teach art classes. Some have even had the chance to conduct a choir and lead other recreational activities. Not only have there been open- ings to minister to the inmates, but the inmates have ministered. Tay- lor said he had received many ben- efits from his involvement. He met a host of unique individuals and has developed long-lasting deep friendships tempered with love. A greater appreciation was gained for the fact that God is building His church — even in prison — and no one can stay His hand. Further un- derstnding of heaven was gained, as well as a realization that heaven would be filled with individuals of diverse backgrounds and expres- sions of faith. As the instructors here at Grace College have learned, reaching out to others can be an unexpected blessing! And our min- istry teams, as well as instructors, help to make Grace truly amazing! It is the unexpected that makes Grace truly amazing. Take Paul Zeltwanger for instance, a senior Accounting and Business major from Mishawaka, Indiana. Be- hind the cool consistency of his play on the basketball court is a respected man with a heart for oth- ers. Paul grew up playing basketball with his father, brother, and neigh- borhood friends at the six-foot rim in their backyard. Like every Hoo- sier, he had dreams of a dazzling basketball career. Yet something happened during his eighth grade year that put those plans into per- spective. He saw the film A Thief In The Night about the endtimes, and he realized the seriousness of the issue of eternity. Paul’s dad is a pastor, and he talked it over with him and made a decision to trust Christ as his personal Savior. Paul was first attracted to Grace through his contact with Coach Jim Kessler at summer basketball camps. Coach K had a real concern for his players, and they in turn exhibited genuine friendliness. It has been those same people who have had the most impact on Paul during his four years in Winona Lake. ‘Coach cares that the guys grow up to be mature men,” Zeltwanger testifies. To meet that end, the team is given valuable ex- periences — like the recent trip to the Bahamas. Conducting chapel services, giving basketball clinics, and teaching physical education classes are ministries not only to others but also by Coach K to the team. There are verses that the team memorizes, a devotional giv- en by the team chaplain, Bruce Bar- low, before each game, and Kessler also strives to relate game situa- tions to real life. Coach K’s ministry to the team has had a strong impact on Paul's life. Amazing Grace... Zeltwanger has emerged as the leader of the team this year. Coach K wanted him to fill that role, and his teammates respected him because of the strong rela- tionships he has built with them. Close friendships within the team — like Paul’s with his roommate of four years, Ben Teske, star for- ward on the team — have helped build a cohesive team which has produced remarkable success on the court. Basketball is not Paul’s only area of interest. Through his work with summer basketball camps, a desire grew within him to work with kids. As a result, he has been a leader for Lighthouse Company, a big brother-big sister ministry on campus. As Paul sees it, “These kids don’t have a real le- gitimate chance, unless they have a good example.” Although he does not have a rotten back- ground, his ten-year-old little brother, Claude, enjoys being around someone who loves him. It is a plus that Claude’s parents are real receptive to Paul’s in- volvement. This ministry has pro- duced a heart for kids in Paul. After he graduates in May, Paul plans to take a position at an ac- counting firm in Indianapolis and hopefully get married next year to his high school sweet heart. Paul Zeltwanger has had no regrets about his decision to attend Grace. He has appreciated the people, the atmosphere, and the solid Biblical foundations. He pro- claims, “I’m really glad I came to Grace.” Paul Zeltwanger is just one more special part of amazing Grace. ‘Amazing grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me ...” These words are John New- ton’s personal testimony, a piece of his spiritual autobiography, a re- flection of his own triumphant ex- perience of the gospel. He truly felt he was a new man in Christ, and it was God’s grace — free, unmer- ited, and unlimited — that was re- sponsible for the miraculous change that had been wrought in his life. This original thrill was nev- er lost. Thus he penned the hymn “Amazing Grace.” John Newton was the son of a master-mariner. By the age of elev- en, he himself was a sailor on one of his father’s ships. A self- educated man, he taught himself Latin, studied Euclid, and read Thomas a Kempis works. But life was not to be easy for John New- ton. He lost his ship twice, once while a midshipman in the navy. Each time he was publicly flogged and de graded, for this was a serious offence. This triggered a series of events that left him captain of a slave ship. By his own admission, he lived a godless life. He was an infidel. But then God’s amazing grace wrought a change in his life, a complete reversal. At the age of forty, he left the sea and became an evangelical clergyman. He minis- tered in England for the next forty- three years, leaving an impact in many lives. John Newton has said that there were two things he could never forget — that he was a great sinner and Jesus Christ is a great Saviour. Amazing Grace... John Newton, Clerk, Once an infidel and libertime; A servant of slaves in Africa: Was by the rich mercy of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, Preserved, restored, pardoned, And appointed to preach the Faith He had long laboured to destroy. Near sixteen years at Olney in Bucks, And twenty-seven years in this Church. Inscription in Church of St. Mary Woolnoth, City of London I Corinthians 15:10 “But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me did not prove vain; but I labored even more than all of them, yet not I, but the grace of God with me.” (ASV) Absohlely wash BND sponsored By Grace cach reli FALL FEST� Fall Fest was a time for student in- volvement in the community in practical ways.

Freshman Craig Kingery commented, “It was great fun.” Rebecca Bracy, also a fresh- man, said “Id like to thank the sophomore class for making my wish come true initiation night — I’ve always wanted to look like Phyllis Diller.’ The sophomores and a few select juniors and seniors welcomed the freshmen with various activities. The fresh- men were escorted outside to be hosed down and have as- sorted foods and other gooey things smeared in their faces and hair. Each Alpha girl was paired up with a Beta guy and they sang the infamous, ‘We love you Beta boys — Alpha girls’ song to each other while hold- ing hands. This seems to be the one tradition that stays the same each year. The other ac- tivities created each year vary in style depending upon the humaneness and past memo- ries of the sophomores who are planning initiation. Activities planned for this year included having the fresh- men roll down a spaghetti- covered hill while dumping flour on them. Then they did the leap frog across the soccer field and the crab walk back. After initiation was complete, both the freshmen and the sophomores returned to their dorms for a long-awaited and much-needed shower. Sophomore Holli Durham commented, ‘Overall, I per- sonally felt that the freshmen class had a good attitude ini- tiation night ... I waited for one year to get them. I hope it was as much fun for them as it was for us.” The freshmen did get a final chance to retaliate the follow- ing day on the Lancer Soccer field at the Beanie Bowl. The freshmen won the bowl by a score fo 19-13. “Once again, initiation is over. There will be no more serving the sophomores and no more smorgasboard hair and putrid-smelling clothes — until next year.” — Sherry Schroeder Cindy Hawkins, Misty Moore, and Shelly Nylund make the best of the initiation experience. Karen Huntington is now an Official member of the “Grace family. Lori Van Klompenberg desperately needs a shower. Opposite page.

Fi- nancial Aid and Records were moved to the former Byer Music Hall which was renamed the Omega Center. East Hall was expanded to include an orchestra room and performance center. The fa- miliar landmark of North Hall disap- peared and Sounding Board and Her- itage offices moved to the Administration Building. The Omega Center is a more convenient location for vital student services. North Hall saw its last year of service. The completed East Hall is an asset to the music program. East Hall is the product of many long hours of planning and labor. 28 c Te any reeks | é 4 ’ :. 29 R. — SR. BANQUET “ALL THAT JAZZ” APRIL 22, 1988 The Bob Richman Band “‘jazzes’’ up the evening.

Andre had a friend that was Grace Brethren who told him about Grace College. He had wanted to come to a Christian college in America. The plans were finalized after soccer coach, Steve Grill, called Andre in Germany eight times. He figured that if the coach called him that many times, the soccer team HAD to be good. Soccer happens to be Andre’s prime pas- sion. Andre had determined to proceed to en- gineering school, but has made his years at Grace enjoyable and significant. He giveth more grace when the burdens grow greater, He sendeth more strength when the labors increase; To added affliction He addeth His Mercy To multiplied trials, His multiplied peace. His Love has no limit; His grace has no measure; His power no boundary known unto men; For out of His infinite riches in Jesus He giveth and giveth and giveth again. -Annie Johnson Flint Mark Austin . eee Richard Barrett Stephanie Ball Bruce Brumm e Carme Wi BE SmAozozn see i ,% , x Clive Craigen Billy Day Bert DeGroot 60 ER hE eas Nancy Dowsett Julie Annette Gangle soremnnrr TR: “ Andrew Gano Melissa Garber Sc gece _ ott Geibig ® Dana Gibble Christina Goodwin — = —_ Andrea Hackbarth Matthew Hackbarth Michael Harstine 62 Collette Lehman | tricia Hoeksema se = 2 Anita Landrum Jeffrey Little Diana Hicks Uys wy Janelle Kelley Brian Larson Glenn Littrell mes ims Patricia Huber Peter Lourdel 4 ds _ Kelly Manahan _ Kristy Medert Daniela Meier .

Rat-a-tat-tat! Above the din of the crowded gym comes the beat of a drum. The event is a basketball game, and our drummer — Jerry Francis. Not only does Jerry accompany the pep band and enliven the basketball games, he is also involved in concert band. Jerry is a native of Indiana, coming from South Bend. But it wasn’t necessarily the prox- imity of Grace College that prompted his de- cision to attend. At the age of seventeen, he had accepted Christ as his personal Savior at a youth conference in South Carolina. His con- victions as a result of this decision gave Jerry the desire to further his education at a Christian school. Due to his abilities and interests as a drummer, he wanted a school with a good percussion teacher. Terry Vaughn — trained at Ball State University — fit the bill. Jerry is now a sophomore here at Grace Col- lege, majoring in Christian ministries with a minor in missions. To Jerry, music is an important part of life; a way of relaxation, expression, and enjoyment. t Julie Salomon DeeDee Sanville eta ‘4 Matthew Sl me Xs ip py Eric Mischo W.

How did she arrive here at Grace? Acsa learned about Grace from two people. The first is her sister who had studied here pre- viously. The second is a missionary friend who works in Concepcion, ministering to the kids there. However, even then, getting t o Winona Lake, Indiana was not all fun and games. Not only did travel arrangements need to be made, but in order to attend a college in the United States Acsa had to pass an English evaluation exam. She also had to struggle with her fear of the unknown future and learn to put her trust in God. : Acsa has found life in the United States different from life in Concepcion, Chile. One obvious difference is the down- town area. In Chile, shopping malls are an unknown. Rather, small shops are scattered throughout the downtown area. This makes for a much larger city — at least compared to Warsaw-Winona Lake. The other thing Acsa has noticed is that people here in the United States cannot pronounce her name properly, since they lack the Spanish accent. Acsa Troncoso is a psychology major.

Ne AmMOcsn 75 76 An integral part of life here at Grace — at least as far as freshmen are con- cerned — are the peer ad- visers. The peer advisers are a group of upperclass- men, working out of the Student Academic Advis- ing Center. Their respon- PEER ADVISERS FOR 1988 Everett Piper, Adviser Dan Gregory Steve Martin Mark Troyer, Adviser Kip Cone Kevin Williamson Lori Bickel Jackie Gelsinger Philip Yoder sibilities include helping the freshmen register for classes and get acquainted with life at college. Throughout the year, they keep in touch and are al- ways there if you need ad- vice. With the help of SIGI+ — a computer pro- gram — they also try to instigate career-oriented thoughts, as well as choice of a major. Without this su- per group of peer advisers, transition to college life would not go quite so smoothly. 78 = SS SENAMSens Billy Sunday Tabernacle AFL a i 8 mo Oo é SUNDAY LANE CHESTNUT ST. va a Morgan is Learning Center McClain Hall Philathea Hall Colonial Hall Alpha Dining Commons Lancer Gymnasium Cooley Science Center Beta Hall North Hall Sands “Grace is still in diapers.”” The relatively new President of Grace Schools, Dr. John Davis, is anxious to keep dreams and goals in perspective.

Highlights included an impressive 3-1 victory over a pow- erful Huntington team and 12-0, 8- 0 wins over Fort Wayne and Con- cordia respectively. Even though Grace outscored opponents 10-2, a heart-stopping 1-0 loss to Goshen put the Lancers in second place in the Mid-Central Conference. For the season the Lancers scored 64 goals and gave up.a.mere 25, av- eraging 3.6 goals scored to 1.3 goals given up per game. A respectable eight shutouts were achieved by sophomore keep- er Drew Gano, who received all- MCC honors, along with junior stopper, Kip Cone. Sophomore Rich Firth led the team in both goals and assists, and achieving all- league honors as well. MVP and best defense honors went to Cone. Best offense award was given to Firth and named rookies of the year were Paul Bowman and Andy Gould.

Few will ever forget that Wednesday night in March when the Lancers defeated Taylor University, 67-54, for their first ever District 21 NAIA Champion- ship before a capacity crowd in Wi- nona Lake. Then it was on to Kansas City for the NAIA finals where Grace won its first round over Paul Quinn, Texas, 97-89, but lost a close one to Auburn-Montgomery, Alabama, 73-66, to close out a 31-5 season. In the process Grace became just the 14th Indiana school to ever win a game at the national tourney. Out of that number, only 11 have won more than one game and Grace is now one of six Indiana schools to have a .500 record or better. The loss to Auburn ended a bril- liant four-year career for the four seniors on the Lancer squad. Paul Zeltwanger, Ben Teske, Darrel Gudeman, and John Hans ended their careers with a four-year re- cord of 104-34 which is tops for any school any size in Indiana dur- ing that span. They were a part of four straight MCC titles. A smiling Coach Kessler celebrates Grace’s NAIA District win over Taylor University. Tylor Coley amazes the crowd with his lev- itation skills.

This was one of the greatest years in the history of athletics for the Lancers and our cheerleaders were equal to the oc- casion for the 1987-88 Lancer sea- son. The squad lived up to the goal of adding enthusiasm to the games and also provided entertainment during the time-outs and _ half- imes.

Knowing that we had the op- portunity to motivate the stu- dent body to serve each other and the community made all the Monday meetings in the Little Theater well worth it!!!” Bob Aycoth S.A.B. “I have enjoyed this year in S.A.B. and the challenges it presents. I’ve felt like we have provided the campus with a wide variety of the events that they en- joy. I am involved with S.A.B. because I could become a person who complains about a lack of things to do, and so instead, I decided to put these efforts towards having something to do.” -Brian Sweet 110 “TI enjoyed serving as _G.M.A. President this year. It was an honor and a privilege. I had the opportunity of working with just a few of the many committed Christians here at Grace. I see the growth that G.M.A. has stimulated in many students. It’s encouraging to see stu- dents learning to know and love God. These are © the future leaders of the church who will contin- ue to build the King- dom.” -Dennis Crumbley L.C.I. Humboldt Park. ‘’Life functions on another level in the inner city. For these kids the key to life is sur- vival. Presenting Christ to them introduces Jesus as the key to life. It’s exciting to see young people take Christ and work with Him, still possessing that hope each time we see them.” -Barry Brigham LIGHTHOUSE L.C.I. “My team has done a lot of manual labor to help with the completion of the I.C.I. facility at Logan Square, Chicago. Not only have we been able to min- ister through labor, but al- so by being testimonies to the workers and to the neighborhood. It is exciting to be a part of this min- istry.” -Jonathan Carey “Lighthouse is Grace’s version of a big brother little brother and big sister little sister program. We work with boys and girls ages 7 to 14 who lack quality attention and a supportive home life. We find this ministry a challenge because we never know what to expect. We go in with our defenses down and hearts open. As we spend time with the kids, we learn as much about ourselves as we do about them.” slvelie “During my four semesters on Timothy Teams, I have seen God continue to mold and use me. Remembering how much I admired college students when I was in junior high and high school has impressed the fact of the impact and responsibility I have in these youth’s lives on my heart time and again. It has magnified the fact that I represent Grace College and, most importantly, God, by my actions. T.T. leadership has been a very stretch- ing, thought-provoking, growth- encouraging process. Simply put, true min- istry produces the potential for growth.” -Brian Weaver 112 PUPPETS “As puppeteers, our job is to present Biblical truths in a somewhat humorous way.” -Todd Thomas ‘““D.E.O. stands for Disciple- ship Evangelism Outreach and is a campus ministry reaching out to Purdue Indiana Uni- versity, Fort Wayne.” -Joe Ventura BREYER “This is a ministry which involves relating to girls who are hurting — to share the sense of God’s belonging love with them.” -Sarah Sager RIGHT TO LIFE “T see a real need for Christians to be- come more involved in social-political is- sues.” -Kevin Williamson a yaisneT Ad PRISON “I can use my basketball interest as a medium in which to share about the hope I have in Jesus Christ.

I am hap- py that the Lord can use me here at Grace to infuse my fellow- students with the fire of world outreach so that they in turn may ATHLETIC leave to be Christ’s witnesses unto the OUTREACH uttermost part of the earth.” -Patrick Nesbitt Y.G. “Youth Guidance is a branch of Youth for Christ. Our focus is to develop a per- sonal relationship with young people who are the “misfits” of the average high school group, through personal in- teraction to either ac- cept Christ, or if saved, to grow spir- itually.”’ -Jerry Landrum 115 GRACE BELLES “To be involved in Grace Belles is a wonderful learning experience. It is learning to think and play as a team. No one is a soloist. Belles takes hard work and plenty of time. It is an activity where you learn to give the Lord all you have and then let Him fill you back up. It is a ministry where the Lord is the one to whom the honor and glory is given.” -Lynn Kaufman 116 RESOUNDING BRASS “It has been my pleasure to be involved in the Resounding Brass. I have enjoyed the chance to use my ability in music. However, just as important, I have had the opportunity to share Christ with others through this ministry. I am greatly encouraged by the renovations and expansions that have taken place in our music department. I trust that these changes will be for the good of the department.” -Dave Bartel 117 118 CONCERT CHOIR “Early mornings, late nights, priority re- hearsals, bundles of laughter, personal com- mitment, sharing Christ, and touching lives are my memories as I reflect on my partic- ipation in the Concert Choir. As Christ was shared through music and testimony, my own personal relationship with Christ was deepened. These fond memories will live on as I leave Grace College.” -Randy Myers RESIDENT ADVISERS “Some words I would use to describe what is is like being an R.A. would be frustrating, stretching, responsibility, rewarding, struggling with the friendship versus authority issue of being an R.A. to your peers has developed in me more self-confidence as well as accountability.

[4 OT O G FR A Pp E-] Y der the representation of Mr. Robert Mahl. Much creativity and many long hours were put into the production of this memorable, unique Heritage. 12 i N. Vermilion St Our staff has chosen the theme “Amazing : Grace” for this yearbook. From its start to its Danville, IL 62832 destination, the book has pictured Grace’s (2 { 7) 449-0554 unique atmosphere, as well as faculty and stu- dents. The staff, along with the help of Taylor Publishing Company, has spent much time and effort to make the yearbook a very special record of priceless memories. We are sure that you will appreciate this year’s edition of the Heritage. Thank you, Taylor Publishing Company and Bob Mahl. Sudlow Photography brought you this year’s class portraits and presented each student with the option of purchasing photographs for personal use. Thank you, Sudlow, for a job well done. Long hours of work and dedication are the ingredients needed for a staff to publish a quality yearbook. The 1988 Heritage staff led by Lori VanKlompenberg, chief editor, have those qualities and have made every effort to preserve the treasured memories of the 1987-88 school year. In addition to being the editor, Lori has done all of the work on the computer in assembling pages. We could not have made it if our chief photographer, Rich Barrett, had not spent long hours of shooting photos and then completing the finished product in the darkroom. Patrick Nesbitt pulled together the business end by selling advertisements during the second semester. Other staff members who contributed much to the success of the yearbook included: Kevin Hundtoft, Pam Saletri, Beth Farner, Kendra Simmons, Jill Squires, Kelly Arn and John Shirk. There was a time when we were without a darkroom and Larry Kayser, Development, and his assistant, Dennis Buller, came to our rescue. They also contributed other pictures. Others helping included: Diane Beck, artwork; Denise Goolsby and Joyce Ashman, identification of staff pictures. I'm sure this is not a complete list but we say THANK YOU to everyone who helped. We hope you enjoy the 1988 Heritage. Don R. J.

Stage Band, Brass gave things to do; learned to play new instruments, too. Travel and ministry, tours over break, Art club, and Dorm Rep, they’ve all been great. Classes and lectures and papers and such; Now, they don’t seem to matter as much as friendships, and laughter, and dates, banquets, parties and ice skates, wondering what SAB had planned, and the very first time he held my hand. Books and projects have taught me a lot. But, when I remember it will not be the learning that sticks in my mind, but the sharing and devoting my time to working with friends in Senate, talking with the people I’ve met, the all-nighter’s I’ve pulled, the pranks I’ve played, the times I’ve cried, and the times I’ve prayed. It won't be the “A’s” I recall, but the people who have lived on my hall. It won't be as editor I'll remember this year, but the responsibility it taught me so clear. I'll forget all the quizzes and tests I took; and remember the countless games of Rook. The facts have stayed in my head from the start; but, the real lessons I’ve learned with my heart. The walks by the lake, talks half the night; these are the teachers that shed some light on the rules of life, and the way to live. on how to love, and how to give. Four special years; they went so fast. But, there are memories to cherish, memories that last. The years flew so quickly and now they’re gone; and, I realize sadly it’s time to move on. — Kim Kyle rw
