Chapel services are held every four weeks, the third period on Friday, with such themes as The Fourfold Man, Answered Prayer, and Mennonite History. During Bible school we had various instructors and visiting ministers for our morning devotions and chapel programs, which we appreciated. Those who were here during the term were, Amos Miller, Merle Eshleman, Paul Roth, Elmer Moyer. Alfred Brenner, Marvin Landis, Claude Meyers, I. Paul Graybill, and Harry Shetler. Our aim is to present the spiritual side of life among secular subiects and to make programs that enrich character.
