A Revivals are held to prepare students for Christian service. Spiritual growth is attained through worship . . . Our own campus leader, President Cross, recognizing the spiritual needs of young people, presented many outstanding Sunday evening sermons. Lee College proves that true religious contentment can be found in a bodv of wholly consecrated students willing to accept Christ as their example in Christian living. Lee ' s student body realizes the imperfection of an academic and social life without spiritual preparation, and earnestly seeks the guidance of God in religious campus activities. Campus Pastor Tull serves as our director in Christian attitudes and worship, lending a strong arm on which to lean in the many conflicts that young people often face. President Cross is an excellent example as a spiritual leader. Campus Pastor, Reverend W. E. Tull directs daily chapel services. Lectures on the Trinity are delivered to the student body by General Overseen Dr. Charles W. Conn.
