J7 SPIRIT working together spiritually Students search for answers and aid through campus fellowship. With schoolwork, activities or involvement. day-to lay life was often trying for every student at Seaver College. Many students turned to the religious aspects at Pepperdine for satisfaction and answers. For a more formal approach, the University Church of Christ had regularly scheduled worship services and bible study classes on Sunday mornings. There were also evening church services. Don Crawford, campus minister, headed most of these meetings along with the help of Roger Woods and Pat Yoshihiro. Besides attending on-campus church services, many students went to various chruches in Malibu and the surrounding communities. Weekly convocation speakers and performers enlightened the students who gathered every Wednesday for Convocation at Firestone Fieldhouse. Perhaps some of the most unique per- formers were members of the Royal Shakespeare Co. and the singing groups. Students also had an opportunity to sing, listen to scripture and pray. A more personal aspect of religion at Seaver was evident through the Sunday night campfire devotionals at the beach near Latigo Bay Villas. These gatherings were purely student organized as were the occasional on-campus devotionals in Stauffer Chapel or in the Fouch Amphitheatre. Moments in singing and fellowship were spent at these functions. Also, many dorm and individual bible studies were held all over campus throughout the year by students. The Student Government Association sponsored some more entertaining evenings such as the Benny Hester Concert and other Christian gatherings. Campus Life also participated and one of its major events was the World Missions Workshop. Fifty-five students flew to Harding University in Searcy. Ark. to attend the annual event for a weekend in October. Various fund-raisers were held to obtain funds for the venture, which involved many Christian colleges. The object was to challenge Christian students with desire for a mission experience. In 1982 this event will be held at Pepperdine University. In January, the West Coast Campus Evangelism Seminar was held on campus involving Christian and stale university students. Retreats were also included throughout the year sponsored by the University Church. Pepperdine seems to truly cater to students regarding religion and spiritual needs in many different ways. Events such as these have helped out in both good and hard times.
