v .mm t. T H E MCQOFO -P-BCD!-l In GD111' Glltwa 'rather By JOSEPH F. COOGAN In the village of Franklinville, N. Y., there was born to Alvin and Angie Lowe a son, whom they christened Marmion Lloyd Lowe. So began the career of our beloved Class Teacher. Even as other boys, he grew and at the age of five began his school life in a little country school. Being the son of a farmer, he naturally loved the things pertaining to farm life. He loved to see things grow, plants and animals alike, even as he loves to see the spiritual lives of the students unfold and come to full bloom for the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ. In the sequence of events I-Iigh School followed the little country school and then Bible School. He graduated from the Practical Bible Training School in 1919. Previous to this the Lord had touched his life through the ministry of Lee Aldrich and Ralph Carr in Franklinville, and, in 1914, Marmion Lowe became a child of the King by accepting the Lord Jesus Christ as his personal Saviour. The Lord led very definitely both in his selection of Bible School and in his life while a student here. He was elected the treasurer of his class, which choice shows the esteem and regard in which he was held by his classmates. On August 30, 1917, he was united in marriage with Laura A. Bennett. Their marriage has beenblessed by the Lord with three children, Lloyd, Paul and Lucy. He became pastor of a church near his home during his Junior year and was still further used of the Lord in his Senior year as pastor of the South Apalachin Church. The Lord then called him to serve the church at Triangle, New York. After serving his Lord and Saviour faithfully for about two years in Triangle, he was called home to help his father. In Ex. 20:12 we read, Honour thy father and thy mother that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee. We trust that, having fulfilled this commandment, our brother may receive the blessed promise that God grants with it. After this, Mr. Lowe stepped out into evangelistic work for the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ, first preaching and teaching in the school house near his home. A call came from the Jackson Summit and Jackson, Pa., churches where two years of his ministry were spent, then Galeton, Pa., and eight glorious years of service for the Lover of his soul. Here in the providence of God's grace Mr. Lowe was ordained by the Galeton Baptist Church. His ordination was truly the direct will of God, for when opposition arose, God intervened and prevented, by a severe rainstorm and a rising river, the opposing forces arriving on the scene to prevent the ordination. Two events especially marked our brother's ministry at Galeton, one, an evange- listic campaign which was not only successful but lasting in its results, even up to the present day. Perhaps this was true because of the Scriptural way in which it was con- ducted. They went out two by two as the Lord sent them forth in Luke 10:1. The second event was the beginning of the blessed ministry of teaching at our dear P.B.T.S. in addition to his conference work and speaking engagements which are by no means few. The influence of the life of our brother, as one of our instructors, in his testimony for the Lord Jesus Christ, consistently lived from day to day, can never be measured: but, as the stone cast into the still waters of a lake sends forth ripples that reach the farthest shore, so only upon that blessed shore with our Saviour Himself will we know all that he has meant to us. XVQ, the Class of '44, ask that God's richest blessing may rest upon you, Mr. Lowe, and upon all your labors for your Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, whom we know you love and serve, not for any glory to yourself, but for His glory. Rom. 10:15, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things. lf you mfer get flu' efmriof Sflllffl in flue fmvzrl, hitch flu' Gospel io if, and pull it out.
