CHRISTIAN COLLEGE FOR “SILVER” SERVICE We wish to honor our President, Wilford Frank- lin Lown, for his dedicated service to Manhattan Christian College over the past twenty-five years. President Lown has been a truly devoted and dili- gent Christian leader, and because of our sincere appreciation and love for him this 1979 Vasion is dedicated to him. “Bill Lown and I go back in time to our student days at Manhattan, and our friendship has been rich in every way. We have shared the valleys and shad- ows with our loved ones. We have walked the mountain tops in earthly view as well as the spirit- ual peaks in large and small Christian assemblies. He is the one among all the many brothers in the faith with whom I feel the most comradeship. He is truly a man of faich, vision, commitment. I wel- come this opportunity to express this tribute to him at this time.” Leonard G. Wymore NACC Convention Director “T appreciate W. F. Lown and his 25 years of leader- ship with Manhattan Christian College. He has been wonderfully steadfast, singleminded, and hard working in his zeal for excellence. The Christian ministry, in his eyes, is never to be taken lightly; it is not something for those who just want to get by’ — it deserves excellence! “In bis role he has felt deeply the meaning of pres- sure and has grown stronger with every ounce of it sim- ply because he has remained constantly in the Presence of that One who empowers and enables. “Bill Lown has never flinched from the difficult, has never been satisfied with giving less than his best, has always encouraged the same from those who have worked with him in the Father's business. I praise God for his positive influence on my own life and ministry, and on the countless others who have been and are being touched by our Lord through his labors.” Darel Boston “Bill Lown has distinguished himself as a persuasive and articulate scholar and communicator of the Gospel, as a Christian gentleman, and as a leader among leaders over the past 25 years as President of Manhattan Chris- tian College. “The impact of his life on the lives of all of us who have received our education at Manhattan Christian College over the past quarter of a century and beyond 1s well attested to and appreciated throughout the brother- hood and the world. On behalf of the Board of Trustees and myself, I am pleased to express our deep gratitude for his leadership and for his unwavering commitment to the essential role of the equipping ministry in God's great scheme of redemption.” Kenneth Cable, President Board of Trustees “My friendship with W. F. Bill” Lown has spanned 36 years. During those years my admiration and respect for him has continued to grow. It is not often one finds the qualities of a pastor, preacher, administrator, counse- lor, and scholar so well blended within one personality. His love for Christ and His Church is evident in his strong, patient, and persevering service. His inclusive, optimistic spirit has given him an effective voice among those who seek the unity of the Church. A man whose words are carefully chosen, he is an able communicator of Christian truth to a wide audience. In short, “Bill” Lown ts God's man, fulfilling his ministry in such a way as to set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith, and in purity” (1 Timothy 4:12).” Charles E.

For some, college life was a totally new begin- ning; for others, college life was drawing near a close. In either case, the first week of school was a beginning to a new and exciting year for every- one. New students brought a new vitality to the MCC campus. Freshman orientation provided an excellent opportunity for new and returning stu- dents to get acquainted. Dorm life also provided a continuous opportunity to develop closer rela- tionships as the year progressed. As classes convened for the first time and as studies began, the new school year was under Way. Campus Life 1 — Doug Deemer, Les Palich, and Henry Kozlowski enjoy another meal in the cafeteria 2— “I can't take this food anymore!” 3— ‘'ls this where I'm going to live?” 4 — Home sweet home, Lown Hall 5 — Linda Clarke and Vanessa Ward greet each other warmly 6 — Valerie Eggleton assists students in the bookstore as they purchase materials. 7 — Dr, Leach advises David Burke during enrotiment. 8 — Melanie Long sighs with relief, ‘| made it back all the way from Danville, Illinois!” Wile: Campus Life NAAT, ¥ +5 ee 33 -_ We DORMITORY LIFE “Today while our friendships still linger in time, lil be there to help you when you're in a bind. A million tomorrows will all pass away ere I'll forget all the joys that are ours today.” If dorm life is anything, it isn't late night typing, early morning studies, or dorm duties. Surely, these are all a part; but dorm life is friendship, a special mid-afternoon talk, a walk in the rain, a shared prayer, and a time to grow. Dorm life is learning to care about someone else more than you do yourself. It is finding some- one who will laugh at your jokes even when they aren't funny. It's sharing a secret and helping each other be the best person he can be. The dorm is where life-long friends meet and discover that there is more than one person that can be a best friend. It’s learning that life's most beautiful people love God just as much as you do and that it doesn’t matter if they weren't the star of their high school basketball team. Dormitory life is a year long chance to grow. ‘| GL Lets | | 8 Campus Life 1— Memorial Hall and Joliffe Hall 2— The men in waiting at Johnson Hall. 3— No, Laurie can't come; will! do?” 4 — David Burke and Chris Loeppke check their mail. 5 — Doug Deemer, Chris Loeppke, and Mr. Eggleton enjoy the campus carnival. 6 — ‘Don't take that picture! ’ 7 — Students take advantage of the salad bar in the cafete- ria 8— James Taylor diligently studies in his room tn Lown Hall Campus Life 9 THE GLORIOUS TASK Academics are the hub of campus life. A stu- dent’s average day may include a 7:30 Greek class; a morning in the Library writing a paper; an evening memorizing Doctrine verse; and all too often, an “all nighter’’ at Sambo’s. Whatever it may take to ‘make it through,” it’s all worth it because of that great day in May. 1 — Oh, I finally got it! 2— It's Greek to me. 3— Where is that town? 4— Here we go again. 5 — Linda, !I can't find it! 10 Campus Life GROWING TOGETHER The Religious life of the student is an important aspect of campus life. Students practice faith and fellowship by becoming involved personally in small group Bible studies and prayer groups, and corporately in Chapel and dorm devotions which together are designed for spiritual growth and maturity. The concern, commitment, and fellow- ship shown by the MCC family, one for another, are aspects of life on campus that make experi- ences memorable. 1— Jill Cripe ready to slumber 2— Morning devotions are important 3— Wecan't take it any longer 4— Chapel a twice weekly refreshment 5 — Sharing lives is important to growth.

In looking ahead to graduation, becoming a Senior, Junior, or Sophomore, the question comes to mind, “Can | measure up?” Growing into mature leaders is, in part, what we have hoped to accomplish this year. With new class status comes new roles and responsibilities. Students equip themselves dif- ferently to meet this new set of expectations.

The most important aspect of the Lord’s Shepherds is the spiritual growth within the group. They also emphasize spending time in prayer. Most important, they help prepare young men and women to commit themselves to the Great Commission. 1 — 79-80 officers, Chuck Kerns and Sue Donnelly 2 — This year’s missions group was one of the largest in recent years.

Organizations 41 CELEBRATION SINGERS The Celebration Singers are the musical ambassadors of MCC. Highlights for the fall semester included a per- formance at the Kansas Christian Convention in Wichita and the Fall Mini-Tour, which took them to Kansas churches in Garden City; Sublette; Medicine Lodge; White City; and Amarillo, TX. The group was featured for the Benefit Dinner and the Fall Festival of Faith in November. The Singers performed for the Kansas Farm Bureau State Convention in Topeka and also taped a spe- 42 Organiz ations cial Christmas television show in December. During second semester, the choir performed a musical entitled Acts based on events in the book of Acts. They traveled to Kansas churches in Plainville, Oakley, and Norton to present this musical. Celebration Singers also appeared at MCC's Preaching Convention, sang for Women's Days, and culminated the year with their annual Spring tour, May 17-June 1, to churches in Kan- sas, Nebraska, Illinois, Missouri, Colorado, and New Mexico. 1 — Kim E. Clowe, Director 2 — Celebration Singers rehearse INSPIRATION RINGERS Ringing English handbells in praise is a newly popular and growing form of musical worship in our churches across the land. MCC sees the need to prepare young people to lead in this music ministry. In 1974, Mrs. T.H. Johnson gave the first gift to begin our fund for a set of bells in memory of her husband and long-time president of MCC. The bells were purchased in 1975, and a choir was quickly organized. Now, five years later, we have graduates directing other bell choirs. Interest in bell ringing continues to grow in the churches, We must also expand our college pro- gram to provide well-prepared leadership. The T.H. Johnson Memorial Bell Fund, therefore, has anew goal — a complete five-octave set of bells. a E38 pipet 7 i 3 é i by 3 1 — Dale Aldridge, Pete Bradshaw, Marilou Keller, Scott Handley, Shelly Schaffner, David Flint, Barb Christofanelli, Bruce Long, Tami Schroeder, and Mark Liem. 2— Dale Aldridge, Director 3 — Inspiration Ringers entertain guests during their Christmas Ring.

These men decided that it was time that Manhattan Christian College be represented in the MCCC Cross Country League. Although they did not have a coach or a planned schedule of practice, they found time to run during the day, and at times, during the evening. The meets consisted for a four-mile run desig- nated by the host team. The runners would “look the course over’’ and decide when and where each would make his move.

The integration of class content and field experience is achieved at M.C.C. through the Student Ministry and Internship Programs. Students may select from one of five training models in order to gain this experience; Pastoral Ministry, Youth Ministry, Education Ministry, and Missions. During the summer of the 1979-1980 school year, students were involved in all of these pro- grams. Churches, Missions, evangelistic asso- ciations have responded to the program enthu- siastically and are joining hands with the col- lege in this educational process. In addition to the Intern Program, 21 stu- dents are serving in student ministries throughout Kansas. They drive 3572 total miles each weekend, preaching, teaching, counsel- Sl al flo tits ing, and generally assisting congregations yyy TMU TLES which might not otherwise have ministerial leadership.

Stu- dents found the messages, which were brought by area speakers, missionaries, staff members, puppets, and musical groups very informative and enlightening. New windows designed with crosses, having a stained glass effect, were an added feature to Valerius Chapel this year. “1 go to chapel because ! need the spiritual revitalization,’ remarked Dean Boston. Chris Townsend said, ‘| enjoy getting an introduction to the good speakers of the Christian churches and the Restoration Movement.” Whatever reasons students had for attending chapel services, one can be sure that every per- son came out of each worship hour blessed and challenged by the messages presented from God's Word. 62 Activities 1 — Board of Trustees President, Ken Cable. 2 — Students sing praises in a Tuesday night service. 3— Celebration Singers perform in chapel. 4— Kim Clowe leads songs. 5 — Melanie Long is silhouetted by a new chapel window. 6 — Editor of the CHRISTIAN STANDARD, Sam E.

Activities 69 NOW THAT IT’S TIME TO GO As we look back at this year, to our minds come the memory of many joys, happy moments, and trying experiences that were a part of our life F here at M.C.C. Fond will be the memories of we friendships made, of goals attained, and of fun we have had together. What we have gained here these past months are not just memories to hold dear but also experiences that will mold and shape our futures. Truly, Manhattan Christian College in its academics, its associations, and in its fellowship has accomplished, in each one of us, her goal: growth. For we have grown closer to our Lord, grown closer to one another, and grown closer toward being prepared for our lifes pursuit. Now, that it is time for us to go, we can not and should not do so before saying, “Thank You, M.C.C., for all that we have received.” “ye OT er ee tao 7 ams 1 atin is aL i— Remember when Paul Schumann came to Critical O.T. that day prepared to swim through the oceans of Dr. War- ren thought? 2— Remember Colette when you finally found that book in the library? 3— Remember all those nice long and pleasant phone calls from Greg? 4—Remember all those nice friends | made? 5— Remember all those hours of relaxation shared with a close friend?
