Bud Whitte Mr. J. P. Sanders, Sponsor Study to show thyself approved unto God a workman that needeth not to be ashamed was the admonition given to young Timothy by Paul the apostle. This is the motto of a group of Christian young men who, from week to week, have met in an effort to increase their knowledge, renew their zeal, and develop a deeper spirituality. The group has a chairman to take charge of the meetings and a pro- gram committee to arrange activities. Difficult problems are discussed; talks are given by faculty members and guests from the outside; sessions of impromptu speaking are held; and vital issues are debated. This group, organized during the first year of the school ' s existence, has continued true to the aims of its founders and has rendered invaluable service to those who have enjoyed its meetings. titncthif club Page Twenty-three

In their desire to come closer together in spiritual understanding, a group of young people from the college and from the com- munity meet together for a short period every Monday evening. These meetings have been held weekly since the fall of 1937. Since many of the young men of the college are seeking to fit themselves for the ministry, and since others desire to become efficient in directing other phases of the worship service, in the leading of prayer and of song and in the reading of scrip- ture, taking charge of these meetings affords opportunity for actual participation. Religion is of primary importance in the lives of the young men and women who attend the college. By their presence at mid-week church services, they avail themselves of further op- portunities for Bible study.
