MILITARY SERVICES-During the school year the students have had several opportunities to minister to th armed forces in U.S.O. Centers, at the West High War Training School, and also at the NVA AC Victory Center. Music, messages from God's Word, and the serving of refreshments have been excellent means of presenting the Gospel to those in uniform. Those participating have caught a glimpse of the spiritual need among the Service men and women and feel that many will long remember the Gospel seed planted by their efforts. NURSING HOME - Each Sunday afternoon O.B.I. stu- dents meet for visitation in a local old folks' home. Only eternity will reveal the results of the words of comfort brought to those who are bed- fast. Wt NATIONAL BIBLE SCHOOL DAY- Every year the churches of the Open Bible Standard set aside one day for the observance of National Bible School Day. This day is dedicated solely to the presentation of the challenge of Christ's Call, and the recruiting of new laborers for the Master. Student groups are organized and sent to a large num- ber of outlying churches to take complete charge of all services. Through this means of practical evangelism, students demonstrate the bene- Hts of Bible School in the experience of a young Christian's life. This year, because of gas rationing, we were limited in the number of churches we were able to visit, As an alternative, Brother Crooks' recording machine was obtained, and records were made to be sent to all the churches not accessible under present conditions. In the churches that were visited, students took complete charge, teaching Sunday School classes, conducting the morning services, Overcomers' rally services and in several cases the evening evangelistic meetings. The Lord's presence was manifested in the salvation of souls and in the reconsecration of many lives to Him, in many cases for full time service. National Bible School Day proves beneficial in tying us more closely to the pastors and those working on the field. We always return with a more vivid realization of the work we shall face when we shall join them. If conditions permit, we hope to promote another National Bible School Day next year. IAIL-Students from O.B.I. go to the city jail with an interdenomi national group each Sunday, In the past year nearly 150 men were ff f converted, proving the power of the gospel to ex en the most degenerate
