PAUL J. SEBASTIAN Missions, Science and the Bible, Photography, Photo Laboratory, Evangelism. Faculty member since 1950. “That in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ.” Filling the double requirements of teacher and student is no easy task, but through the grace and strength which God supplies Brother Sebastian has done a commendable work. We especially appreciate the course in mission¬ ary photography and the sacrifice which has made it possible. HOWARD A. WHEATLEY Old Testament Introduction, New Testament Introduction, Christian Psychology, Apologetics, Minor Prophets. Faculty member since 1951. “God loveth a cheerful giver.” Another one of our consecrated teachers is Brother Wheatley. In the brief time that we have known him, Brother Wheatley has left the impression that he loves the Lord Jesus Christ, - and desires that others know Him. He has a thorough knowledge of the Word of God and desires that we know it, preach it and live it. Sacrifice, love and patience have made his classes most enjoyable. HAROLD R. LEHMAN Conducting, Choral Conducting, Fundamentals of Music, Voice, Piano, Director of Chorus Choir. Faculty member since 1951. “Singing and making melody in your heart unto the Lord.” A welcome addition to the faculty this year is Brother Lehman. With his knowledge and experience in the field of sacred music, and his love for his Saviour, Brother Lehman uses all three of these to bring glory and honor to the Lord through the ministry of music. 14

THE SENIOR CLASS The class of 1952 met for the first time in the fall of 1949. The class which was not very large, was made up of students who had just been graduated from high school, others who had come from other Bible Schools and colleges, and still others who had been away from school for a long time, but who now realized the call of God to study His Word. The Lord blessed us during that first year, and although there were hard places, many of us realized for the first time that God does lead His children if they are willing to pay the price that it costs to follow Him. When we met together again in the fall of 1950, we found that all of the students had returned. It was again a profitable year to many of the students; many of us had precious times in our Bible clubs and in our various ministries for the Lord. He gave us many oppor¬ tunities to serve Him in music and in giving forth the Word. As the days passed by, we came to see more and more that truly our Lord was leading us, and it was only as we followed His leading that we could have victory in our lives. As we met together in the fall of 1951, we discovered that our class had grown, Although there were a few who had not returned, there were those who had joined our class who had remained in school to take a fourth year of study. The year passed by quickly; again we had our times of testing as well as our times of spiritual blessing. This, we realized, was our most important year, and we tried to learn well and faithfully the lessons which the Lord wanted to teach us. As the time of graduation approached, many of us did not know what the Lord had for us in the future; but one thing we were sure of, and for this we praised Him, that He would be leading us all the way.
