OE Trinity has been the instrument God has used to train thousands of willing students in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. With love and sincere dedication, the teachers have given their time to help equip students for full- time and part-time service. There are times of joy, and times of sorrow. Times of sing- ing and times to just sit and be serious. There is never a dull moment here. But whatever the experience is, the spiritual emphasis is never left out. “Dr. Daddy’”’ The dedication and love that Dr. Bragg holds for Trinity College has continued through parts of his family. He was known to many students Bottom Right: Dr. Bragg and his bride Pauline. Middle Right: This is how Saralyn and her “Grandpa” looked 23 years ago. Dr. Bragg = ‘““Grandpa’”’ as “DR. DADDY’’, when his son Kenneth and his daughter Peggy attended here and for the last four years we have known him as “Grandpa” from his grand- daughter Saralyn Bragg. a an, We wish to dedicate this yearbook to a man whom God has used to bless the lives of Trinity students, Faculty, and Staff for over fifty years. Starting out as a Trinity student himself, he graduated as President of the class of 1934. This was the first graduating class of Trinity, then known as Florida Bible Institute. Truly a servant of God, Dr. E. C. Bragg has faithfully served at Trinity. At present he is Vice-President on the Board and our Theology Professor. He has faithfully and humbly come to each class and has open- ed up the Word to us. He not only has shown us head knowledge of the Word of God but has warmly shown us the knowledge that he holds in his heart. His faithfulness is admired by every student that has come to Trinity College and it is our prayer that we might be a blessing to others as he has been to us. We love you Dr. Bragg and we thank God for your life of dedication. We therefore in return dedicate this 1984 yearbook to you!

It’s cost them lots of sweat and tears to make it through the trials; But through hard work, diligence and faith, They’ve made it through the miles. It wasn’t very easy to continue in the way; But those who've trusted God have found that His grace is sufficient for each day. Some have departed from the way but these faithful ones remain; And testify to us the fact that God’s faithfulness is always the same. They’ve made it through this hurdle like those who’ve gone on before; They’ve passed this stretch of life’s course, and now they’re ready for more. There’s a world out there just waiting for them to fill their place; As they fulfill the will of God by going out to tell them of His grace. Our love and prayers go with you as you exit through our doors, ‘‘May God bless and use each one of you, in the Class of ’84. Linda Sandy Class of ’86 } = O Oo fom ® afd =) O j= ‘a x Graduates | Memorable Moments Four years ago they came as students who thought they had all the answers. Every problem that you could imagine in the ministry was solved in their super human aad minds. Four years later, with Systematic Theology, Acts and Epistles, Pauline Theology, and Hebrews behind them, their super human minds became human. Mistakes were made, some of which they wish they could a recall, and hours were put into study. Often the question rang in their heads, “Am | training for the ministry, or am | training for becoming a human sacrifice?” Now the change has been made. The courses have been completed. Those who have made it this far now wait for the ultimate test. Ministry outside the classroom. What looks so easy on paper isn’t so easy in the world. No one said the ae . m. ¥ % ES ee ae .s MS M4 bs $404 444 4: ministry would be easy. How do you survive in a cruel and wicked world? “Take what you’ve learned and apply it where you can. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths.” Our prayers and wishes go with you. We know wherever your ministry is you will glorify God. Thank you for all the en- couragement guys! We’ll never forget the class of 84. Memorable Moments The alarm clock goes off and you stir long enough to push the snooze but- ton. An extra 5 minutes of sleep is acceptable in your condition (You’re tired). You finally muster enough energy to drag yourself out of bed and into the shower. Then you sit down to breakfast, but sometimes there is no time and you must leave. You kiss your wife, or Mom or your mirror goodbye, whichever the case and leave for class. You have 30 seconds and counting according to MST (Macy Standard Time), and that gives you just enough time to grab your seat and take a deep breath. Class now begins. Brother Williams begins his lecture on Hebrews Chapter Six, and you’re till trying to gather your thoughts. You say to yourself ‘how can | sit through two hours of this? I’m so confused!?!”’ Finally it is breaktime. You rush to get your coffee, coke, or doughnut and spend the most enjoyable 15 minutes of the day chit- chatting with your classmates. Macy rings the bell, and your few minutes of rest are over. Isn’t it funny how that time goes so fast and class seems to drag on for endless hours? Fourth hour is your free period and you should be up in the library doing your Thesis, but you just don’t feel like it. You promise yourself that you'll do it later (knowing in the back of your mind you’re perfecting the art of procrastination in your life). That time quickly flies and you find yourself in last period. You constantly are glancing at your watch and are looking out the win- dow for a blur wearing glasses. Finally the bell sounds and class is over. School has finished for the day. But now the rigors of life really set in. For some it means work, others babysitting, still others a time to relax. Overall it’s been a good day. As you look . back you’ll remember these days as the best days of your life. 30 | ee aauaieal oe oS OE aa om — The friends you’ve made over the past four years will be lasting ones. Now as you look back, satisfaction sets in. I’ve accomplished the task the Lord has set before me. ‘‘Now Lord help me seek your will and walk with you.” It’s true that Trinity was training and that it seemed more like a war, but in reality now this battle is over. You've passed through this “spiritual Boot Camp” on to the Real War. You are armed and ready, but keep your sword sharp! Be prepared. This was just the start, now it’s up to you to follow God’s course. Serve Him with honor and pride. Remember, you're serving the KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS! With God nothing is impossible.

Those countries represented were; Africa—Saralyn Bragg, American Indian—Jamie Hummel, India—Ruth Dooknie, and Japan—Kay Bovaird. “Pray Ye Therefore The Lord Of The Harvest, That He Will Send Forth Labourers Into His Harvest.’’ WHEN YOU PRAY ... | PEOPLE FIND JESUS CHRIST. As you pray, peo- ‘ple worshiping gods of wood, stone, and metal come face to face with the living God. The result? | Lives are changed. People find new life in Christ. _ MISSIONARIES ARE STRENGTHENED. When you pray, across the miles, missionaries experience a sense of God’s presence, His strength and healing. : CHURCHES ARE BUILT. Churches are going up, and they went up because of prayers and God’s faithfulness. The materials, locations and languages may change. But one thing never changes—God is at work inside those churches. People—the true Church, are being added to the family of God. MISSIONARIES ARE SENT. Your prayers can help confirm a decision to serve God on the mission field. Your help clears the decision-making path, and makes it possible for God to call missionaries into service for Him. HOW TO SUPPORT MISSIONARIES WITHOUT MONEY. Missionaries need In- tercessors more than admirers. They need prayers more than donors. They live and work in the enemy’s territory and become the special object of Satan’s attack. Sup- port your missionaries by praying for them. 59 eHoal|Oy SIPPIy Kiddie Kollege is an outreach ministry under the direction of Miss Marie Pietrowski. Kiddie Kollege is in progress while the parents of the children are in Night School. Their activities include Bible Stories, Missionary stories, songs and other fun activities. There are also quite a few potty breaks! Kollege!! Everyone is familiar with that crazy clown, Suzy Q! Her ministry brings a smile to so many faces when you really don’t feel like smiling. Kiddie Kollege was no ex- ception. The kids loved it! Chapel Time Chapel time is the time we _ ing fed by great men of God. gather together as a family and Names like Andrew Telford and seek the Lord. It is refreshing and Dan Ankerberg were among the exciting as we are constantly be- speakers during the school year. Special Chapels were held as well. The Agape Players had a super performance, and helped us to realize that we are ‘‘always in a hurry.” 62 Even our own Faculty members and alumni came to challenge us with a fresh breaking of bread. And the choruses we sing are always uplifting. From music by our own students to a challenging message from a speaker we certainly are blessed during this time of chapel. 63 The Christian Fellowship Church has long | been a faithful supporter of Trinity College. Both Dr. Ypma and Jerry Osborn have been instrumental in this church’s con- tinuous ministry of praying and giving. “Harvest Sunday” is an annual fund raising service held by the church to raise financial t) support for Trinity College. This year they raised over $2000.00 for the school. Thank you Christian Fellowship Church for all you do! Aepuns j}seAJeH Support Prayers Above: Jerry Osborne, Pastor of Christian Fellowship Church.

Mrs. Mac is a great hostess, and her guests always look forward to arriving at Trinity.

This was done in a variety of ways; both inside and outside of the buildings. The floor of the dining room was resurfaced, and the walls repainted. The classrooms were painted and carpeted and insulation was put in all of the buildings. Outside, hedges were cut back, dead trees removed, and other brush taken away. The auditorium courtyard was re-sodded, rain gutters were installed there, and the fountain was fixed. These were only a sample of the vast repairs covered in the past year. “Everyone Gets Involved”’ The repairs were badly needed, and the appearance of the campus has improved tremendously. It is something we can take pride in. Top Left: The Woman grovels in her work. Top Right: Dr. Reinholt put his back into it. Middle Left: Dog Day Afternoon.

Ti Students Attend Schaeffer’s Last L’Abri Conference The Knoxville L’Abri Conference was to be Dr. Francis Schaeffer’s last American Conference. Over 1000 people from across America and the free world gathered at the historic Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church for five days of lecture, films, discussion and thoughtful reflection. The Delega- tion from Trinity spent many hours discussing with each other the various topics of discussion rang- ing from abortion to education. : CEDAR SPRINGS ani ' PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH mS ORGANIZED, 1796 THIS BUILDING ERECTED TO THE GLORY OF OUR LORD, 1973 § THE STONE BELOW 1S FROM THE FOUNDATION OF THIS CONGREGATIONS FIRST BUILDING.

After each evening’s lecture or film, Dr. Schaeffer was assisted to a chair on the platform where he fielded questions from the audience for approximately 90 minutes. The Trinity students felt that they were part of a historical event in participating in this Con- ference. In addition to asking questions from the floor, the students and faculty had an opportunity to discuss other issues with members of the L’Abri staff. The 1984 L’Abri Conference was a highlight of the year for those who attended and will un- doubtedly be a high mark in the educa- tional experience.

The Seniors put on somewhat of a bizzare skit, contrasting their first year at Trinity to a 10 year reunion of the Phenominal Class. During the 10 year intermission the au- dience joined Glenn Erskine and Jim Roper in Father Abraham. Every one had a smile on his face. After the Senior skit, the Junior Class had their first Annual ‘Senior Awards’’. Still after all the awards were given out there was still that long awaited skit of the Southern Baptist Nuns. Mother Superior (Sherry Sapp) was put on trial for her violation of SBN Code 1. ‘“‘Engage- ment to a man!” (Oh my, what heresy!) After the court-martial, the audience was dismissed. It was an eventful day. Class Night } : 934-1984 Trinity had it annual Alumni Banquet at the Kapok Tree Inn. We were entertained by the music of the Trinity Chorale and special music was provided by Mr. Ken Carter, a fantastic soloist. The Guest Speaker was Dr. Donald Hubbard of New York City. The Baccalaureate Service was the Last | Chapel for Seniors. Rev. Dallas Latham, an | alumnus of Trinity College was the speaker. The Chorale sang for one of its last perfor- mances. Most of them are graduating. The Awarding of the President’s List and the W. T. Watson Memorial Scholarships were among the many presentations during the evening. A reception was held after the ser- vice for the graduates and their families. Baccalaureate Graduation! T he Graduation Service was held in the Auditorium and you could hardly find a seat anywhere.

Many of you did us a great service by helping us sell ads and by being patrons. We would also like to thank Mrs. Glee Mackey and Mr. Ron Jackson at this time for their support and encouragement while we were doing the book. There was a heavy work load and we are very thankful for those who did help out, although they were few. The only other thing we could have wished for was the total involvement of the student body in the Yearbook pro- ject, and a better interest by the students for whom this work was done.

Ease the pounding of my heart by the quieting of my mind, Steady my hurried pace with a vision of the eternal reach of time. Give me, anid the confusion of the day the calmess of the everlasting hills. Break the tensions of my nerves and muscles with the soothing music of the Singing streams that live in my memory. Help me to know the magical, restoring power of sleep. Teach me the art of taking minute vacations-of slowing down to look at a flower, to chat with a friend, to pat a dog to read a few lines from a good book. Slow me down, Lord, and inspire me to send my roots deep unto the soil of life's enduring values that I may grow toward the stares Of my greater destiny.
