Principal's Message As Christians, each one of us can and must aid in safeguarding the material and spiritual interests of our own and mankind at large. This may be accomplished only by following the teachings of Christ, Who is “the Truth, the Way and the Life’. There are two principal ways of making the Gospel of Christ known and bringing others into the Fold of Christ. The one is by being called and ordained to “go and make disciples of all nations” and the other is by aiming to “let your light shine before men, in order that they. may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven’. All Christ’s followers, then, have been redeemed for service and one of the greatest means of doing the work of Christ is by displaying a thorough, Christian, Christ-like character. Character is power. The silent witness of a true, unselfish, godly life carries an almost irrestible influence. By manifesting the character of Christ in our own lives, we cooperate with Him on the work of saving souls and making them truly happy. A noble character is an attainment, however, not an inheritance. It docs not come to us by accident, but it is eartied by individual and persevering effort, assisted by the grace of God. God gives the talents; we form the character. But a character formed ac- cording to the divine likeness is the most effective and versatile instrument in the work of sowing the seeds of the Gospel in the hearts of our as- sociates. The wider our sphere of influence, the more good we can do. Our ambition should be to develop within ourselves such a Christ- like character for our own, personal sanctification, then make our presence constantly felt by influencing others for good thereby making our con- tribution to the material and spiritual interests of all mankind. Sincerely yours in Chyist Rev. L. Pisula
