STELLA SISK OTTO STAHLE “Thanks be unto God for His unspeakable gift, the Lord Jesus Christ, I praise God because I know I am saved by the precious shed blood of Christ. As a Christian, my desire is to magnify Christ and to do His will. I thank God for the privilege of Bible School which has been a blessing and preparation for His service. My prayer is to know Him and to make Him known so in that last day 1 can say I have fought the good fight. I John 5:13. Romans 5:20b. “But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound.” I thank God that His grace is greater than my sin. A few years ago 1 received Christ as my personal Saviour. A short time later the Lord called me to Bible School. I certainly am thankful for the things which God has allowed me to learn in my stay at Bible School. I can be confident that God will show me the future as 1 commit myself to Him. Psalms 32:8. ROBERT TAPPER “Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and will not be afraid: for Jehovah, even Jehovah, is my strength and song; and he is become my salvation.” Isaiah 12:2. “And the glory which thou hast given me I have given unto them; that they may be one, even as we are one; I in them and thou in me, that they may be perfected into one.” John 17:22-23. All His eternal, heavenly and victorious glory, Christ has given me. Oh, that I might be unto His glory and magnification. FRANKLIN TOBIAS I praise the Lord for Romans 10:9. It was on the basis of this verse, at a summer Bible camp, that I accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as my Saviour; and later the Lord led me to study at the Lancaster School of the Bible. I praise Him for the many precious hours spent in the study of His Word. Proverbs 3:5,6 have been so precious to me since I have known Him. Pray for us that our labors have not been in vain.

JOSEPHINE POLEY IDA MAE SHAFFER I praise the Lord for saving me, and sending me to Bible School so I can study His Word. I have enjoyed going to classes and listening to my teachers as they taught the Word of God to me. Also I’ve enjoyed fellowshipping with the other students. My prayer is that I will always go in the way that the Lord leads me, and that I will never do anything displeasing to Him. May my life always show forth the beauty of the Lord Jesus Christ. I praise the Lord that I met Christas my personal Saviour when a child, and since that time, His peace has been a reality in my life. It is wonderful to be able to lean on Him knowing that His grace is sufficient for every circumstance because “Great is His faithful¬ ness. Truly, I want my life to be filled with the like¬ ness of my Lord that I might be a useful vessel through which God might receive the honor and glory due to His matchless name. LEROY SHELLY Isaiah 12:3. “Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.” I thank God for the privilege of drawing living water from the wells of salvation as I’ve drawn from His living Word in my studies in Bible School. While working with the Dairy Herd Improvement Company in New York, God called me to Bible School and gave me a desire to study His Word. Even after spending these years in Bible School, I realize how little I know of God and His Word. MELVIN SHULTZ Psalms 91:2. “I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress, my God; in Him will I trust.” Eleven years ago I took refuge in the Lord Jehovah. Praise His Holy name. Now He is my wonder¬ ful Saviour and friend. I have given my all to Him, because He gave His life for me. Now I rest in His atoning blood shed on the cross for me. How can I do less than give Him my best, to serve Him faithfully till death.

We praise God for the many Skip n 8 ? 1V t n US t0 serveHimin word - deed and song. A few of the members of our class have Good News Clubs which prove to be a great blessing. Our verse found in II Corinthians 5:20 has become real and living as we realize what a great privilege it is to be ambassadors for Christ. We hold in our hands the answer for a perplexed, sin-sick world the b essed gospel. Our one desire in life is to see others become children of the King, which reminds us of our class song, A Child of the King.” Although some of the members of our class have left throughout the course of the year, we praise God tor the new ones He has sent our way. We become more conscious day by day of the love and concern Christ has for each of us individually. Regardless of the place, if we are in His will, we will find perfect peace. We also praise God fo r the difficult circumstances He allows us to go through. It’s wonderful when we can look into His face and smile through any trying experience. These experiences cause us to long for our real home in Heaven for we are foreigners here on a journey called “life”. As we look forward to our Senior year, we can only say, “We know not what the future holds, but we know Who holds the future.” D. M. DeHAVEN - “Dealer in fine cars” - 828 S.
