We not only bring before the throne of Grace the needs of the pastors and mission- aries, but we also plead for the souls of those who have not received the message of the Cross. Each member of the Prayer Band corresponds with a pastor or missionary on the field. All letters received are read to us, so that personal interest may be main- tained and the needs and special prayer requests known. To commence our meetings we usually sing a few choruses, and read a portion of Scripture. However, the majority of time is spent in prayer. We pray, believing that God will answer our pleas, for Christ himself said . . . ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full . -Brian Dobson President l i , 0 - 1.3 .'

AFRICAN PRAYER BAND The African Prayer Band purposes to prayerfully intercede for the spiritual needs of the African people. However, the political, economic, and social problems of the people are also remembered in prayer. Prayer re- quests and thanksgivings from the missionaries are made known to us through correspondence, news bul- Ietins, and visits by missionaries on furlough. A secon- dary purpose of the Prayer Band is to ever remind students of the need for dedicated missionaries. ln our Prayer Band, we have three students who come from South Africa. They offer valuable assistance to the group. Individual members add to the outreach of the Prayer Band by writing personal letters to the mis- sionaries. However, we all join together in intercessary prayer for the faithful saints abroad, so that the Gospel may be preached to every creature . -Neil Hamilton President 3-'Q -- - F ,,.. 5 T 6 ! i. , ggi-ff ,gi-ltgggx 2' ...-T ' I - J- A A fi S? i' Q 1 F N sbt.: .i- S..'g-H .-1-7 9'-15'

HUME MISSIUNS PRAYER BAND The Home Missions Prayer Band meets fortnightly to pray for the workers and the needs of the mission field at home. Members of the prayer band through correspondence acquire first-hand information of the specific needs and present them to the band for prayer. Each year a project is undertaken to help meet a definite need. This year all offerings of the group are designated to help meet the needs of home missionary, Mike Bashor at Kitwancool who is the first resident minister of this northern village of some two hundred natives. Our half hour meetings begin with one or two choruses and opening prayer. After sharing specific prayer requests we earnestly pray for the needs of the field. Occasionally time is taken for a student with home missions experience to relate to the group something about this work in order to challenge the group to fervent prayer and retain their in- terest in' that work. -Allen Brown President ITN 111 4 --Q Q!0'.l l l g X bf 4 .av 'S..... -A.. s--.. s I I .yn ' 4 H.. .- as-v 5- I i r As lg :E ' 2:- D Milli Q .
