THE VOYAGERS CLASS . . . OF '69 GRADUATING NIGHT JIM AND SHARON IVIACHEN, DON AND BETTY BOWEN, AND JUDY OETTER . . . HAPPINESS IS HOLDING YOUR OWN DIPLOMA. e Probably one ofthe most distinguishing characteristics of this graduating class is its sense of humor. One is reminded of the wise man's proverb A merry heart doeth good like a medicine.

TO THOSE WHO HAVE RELIVED 1969 A WORD FROM THE EDITOR, I would like to be the first to admit that there is room for improvement in this book, however, with a rookie staff and a second-year man for an editor, this volume has been completed remarkably well. The simple fact is that we did what we had to do, and did it for the glory of Christ. Dedicating this book was one of the more enjoyable tasks of our working hours. It was especially enjoyable to me. Needless to say, I was greatly pleased by the unani- mous voice of approval given by the staff concerning this issue. For though many were worthy, Dr. Helms seemed more so. Prejudiced? Not entirely, for I know the work of being a teacher of preachers and of future preachers drains a man. Long hours are involved. There is no 8-5 schedule. In fact, all teachers at MVBC are ultra- active ministers of the Word. To us Or. Harold Helms is a symbol of the hardwork- ing men of God. lf you are this type of individual, consider yourself honored by this dedication. lt has been the aim of the Charis Staff to make this book not just another annual, but a truly meaningful piece of literature. lVly hope is that you will take pride in this work, for, as the Chapel is, this work is too a necessary part of the building process of IVIVBC. Sincerely, QM?
