And for each student at Western, that Commission began with Denver, a city in need of a saving God. The tools were provided: a place to retreat and study, professors willing to teach and guide each student in the study of Gods Word, and most importantly, a loving God that puts within each the desire to share His love with a lost world. This is the catalyst for reaching out, for searching through the fogg seeking God's will, and allowing Him to provide a pathway that will lead where He wants, how He wants. 1. Denver, a city in need of God. 2. In the mountains, people who need a saving God. cs, OUR GOD . . . The crisp cool mountain air, its thinness we breathe ing hiking over the rocky path only the smallest of plants yet survive, as winter harshness approaches. Stopping, we gaze across the valleys, planting ourselves amid a sloping deer trodden path. Twiddling dry weeds through my fingers, fondling rocks, thinking of our creator. Looking to distant peaks, serenity topping each successive range. The splendor and wonder of viewing God's place. Onward up steep incline, rocky table moutain top under foot. the darkness and quiet come quickly o'er us. Whistling winds blow, autumn snow begins to fall. As sleep calls to us, our hearts we share with one another. Through the night we lay, between the quiet and torrent of wind and snow. Darkness looms. With day break comes the bitter wind, icy driven snow in our faces. Fingertips numb, toes atingleg we troop down the moutain side, Vision blurs increasingly as we gog down slopes, across ridges, we make our way The chill is bitter now, the harshness of thin air in our throat, Our body weight tugs in need of rest. Amid the whiteness of ground and sky, we have walked an unknown path. We pray to our Father in heaven, He strengthens and guides us. On we go, up rocky sliding slopes: praying and praising with each new step. Below us the sky is opening, the pathway lies before us. Downward we trod, new strength and hope within. Our God guides our footsteps, joyfully we will follow. Our goal is in view, And with hope and confidence we continue to draw near. - Michael Chowning ir s,iv-I wifes, I I I October U 3 -20 warm is 7 . 1 ,Al . W. A....

Another gratifying year passed for SMI as the Lord richly blessed them with more funds than in previous years to help in the sen- ding out of students in the summer missions program. Prayer bands encouraged students to pray for missions and enabled them to experience through the eyes of students who had already had a taste of the mis- sion field the excitement and challenge of spreading the gospel world-wide. 2l 12 --.mv ,M--M 'T' SMI Expands Students '95'Q Visions in Worldwide Evangelism 'E . .

World Awareness Encounter Challenges Students for Foreign Missions Expectation filled the air as students awaited the unveiling of the banner announcing the theme, Our Commitment - Com- municating Christ Across Cultures. This kicked off a week of learning, challenge, and life changing decisions as mis- sionaries shared with the student body their knowledge and ex- periences. Thirteen missionaries participated during the World Awareness Encounter in seminars and workshops, discussing topics varying from Islam Today to Foreign Missions at Home. Each day the two guest speakers, Dr. lan Hay and Bill Rapier, presented informative and challenging messages. Other events during the week included a prayer breakfast which provided a time of fellowship and an oppor- tunity to enjoy the culinary gifts of faculty members, students, and their wives. The evening sessions included films, a panel of mis- sionaries and their children, and the delightful WAE 81 Banquet which concluded the week. 2l 1. Bill Rapier, one ot the two guest speakers, despite a broken leg which forced him to be assisted to the podium each day, shared during the course ol the week about servanthood. 2. Mis- sionaries used slides, tapes, and other illustra- tions to convey their messages. 3. The prayer breakfast allowed students and missionaries to share together in a more casual atmosphere. 4. Cindy McGeehan, who visited Africa the previous summer, and several other girls attired in native costume of Africa, helped to set the mood for the theme. 5. A display of articles of interest from lrian Jaya was on display during the week. 15 Student Council Seeks to Serve f 6' W 54 we ag . yr xc 342' 1 X.-v 'V F A.. Student Council is a vital organization functioning as a Iiason between the faculty and the students. It communicates the joys and concerns of all. It is also the lifegiver to all other organizations. The purpose of the Student Council is to enhance the social and spiritual develop- ment of the students by exemplifying Christian character and leadership. The Student Council plans all-school social ac- tivities throughout the year. The big events are class socials and fellowship times, Fall Retreat, skating, Christmas, Valentine, and game parties, Wild .West Days, and the Spring Banquet. The officers of Student Council are Jeff Krohn, president, Randy Brandt, vice- presidentg Beth Garner, secretary- treasurer lfirst semesterl and Norma Ortiz lsecond semesterlg plus the president and representatives of each class. 1.

The retreat was held at Star Ranch in the beautiful mountains near Colorado Springs. Entertainment provided a fun and meaningful atmosphere through skits, testimonies, special music, and dramatic monologues. Colleen and Colin Green sang praises to God, and Paul Morgan jolted everyone to commitment and sincerity to God through his monologues. Recreation ex- ploded with teams playing games and contests. The teams' titles were Mark's Varks, Dick's Ticks, Danny's Pansies, and Twirly's Squirrelys. Our speaker, Ronald Allen, led us in praise from the book of Psalms. The best event of all was at the campfire sight, whe're we sat underneath the trees and stars, watching the moon rise and praising God for His mighty handiwork and love. 1.

Many people might wonder but they provided a stability and strength that anyone would deem Grade AA. They provided spiritual leadership through devotionals and group prayer, an asset that lead to a strength and unity for the chorale. And those beautiful dresses and classy tuxedos? Choosing those was a responsibility given to the officers as well. Of course Mr. German and Mr. Page still remain. They are the core of the chorale leadership. Mr. German was always challenging the chorale to pull together to get a good sound. And Mr. Page, quite literally, provided rhythm, but he could always be counted on for those little com- edy lines in the tough rehearsals. Many times leadership is not seen as being as valuable as it really is, but the chorale's officers, Mr. German, and Mr. Page, showed their worth constantly. 1.

Being a member of the Chorale meant a commitment of much time, especially in the spring when there was a concert almost every other Sunday: plus a tour over Spring Break. But, though it took a lot of time and hard work, the unity and comeradery that was built over the year made it well worth while. 1. Doug Swank and Dave Bishop work on Chorale music. 2.

Q 1:33 Ensemble Fights Pressure, Time Limitations For a small group of twelve chosen from the chorale, there was extra work, extra concerts - extra commitment. The ensemble practiced once a week, thus providing a minimal amount of rehearsal time. And yet because of per- sistent work and concentration, the benefits were great. The ensemble performed several of their own numbers at each chorale concert and even had an opportunity to do an entire program in Cheyenne, Wyoming. It may seem that the ensemble had very little time to grow in unity, but that was not true. No matter how busy the day, each time the ensemble practices, they took ten minutes for prayer which created the unity that was needed. lt was a good year for the ensemble under the direction of Gordon Page and accompanist, Sue Keran. 1.

It was a good way to share with the families in a one-on-one situation, especially since the chorale members did not necessarily stay with Christians. But it was always special when each person set out to have a ministry with a family and in turn experienced the care and concern of their host family in a very special way. Chorale tour . . . it was a time to see new places, meet new people, and minister for our God. 25 Yearbook Faces Challenges Yearbook staff faced a year of transition and challenge as they tackled the job of recording the year's memories with many new people on staff and a new publishing company. Editor, Ruth Page lead the staff in meeting the challenge of each deadline, with many layouts to be drawn, pictures to be taken and cropped, and copy to be written. ,AQ 1.

Peacemakers had the goal of reaching out to the people in downtown Denver with the gospel of Christ. Leaders, Lyndell Johnson and Joe Kastner guided the groups Sunday services and the Fri- day evening Bible study and street witnessing. The peacemakers meetings provided the people of downtown, young and old alike, with an opportunity to hear the gospel and ex- perience the caring of Christian love in pro- viding meals and friendship. 1.

The teams were the freshman and upperclassmen. The freshman team was composed of ten players and although they did not win a game, they were an encouragement to the upperclassmen. The upperclassmen had twenty players and was coached by Dick Rollins. They played against First Christian, in the league championship game.

This has enabled students to gain experience in dealing with people and working in actual church situations. The course in Pastoral Theology is one of the most beneficial in teaching students how to understand and work with the staft in their church. The goal of the Pastoral Department is to prepare students who are equipped to assume positions of leadership as pastors in ae local church. 1. Kim Cook works on a sermon. 2.

With a revival of the Christian school movement in America, Western is now offering a major in Christian Teacher Education. More Christian parents are enrolling their children in Christian schools because of a lack of solid teaching in the public schools. The purpose of the CTE major at Western is to enable students to step into teaching positions with the necessary biblical training and academic requirements. 1. Ronald Kincher helps a student with his schedule. 2. Wally Bourgeois goes over his notes for class. 3. Nlr. Bourgeois tells his class about the fundamentals of teaching. 4. Mr. Kincher checks over one of his students work. 21 31 40 'N , x s I i FJ K .xi i iz 'T f X 1l As the initiation of the Youth Major is complete, one thing is clear . . . it's a success. Under the direction of R. J. Koerper, the most popular major at Western started spreading itself into the youth ministries of several of the area churches. One of the most obvious qualities em- phasised in the youth major is that R. J. wants the students to have a heart for the kids they will be working with. We want to equip students to effectively minister to today's youth, said R. J., they are equipped primarily because of a growing relationship with God, which is ex- tremely biblical and relational, and secondly through quality training in the area of youth ministries. ' R. J. wants his students to learn to meet the kids of today, were they are at and to propel these kids into a relationship with God. This major is an exciting addition to Western's curriculum and is giving many students a motivating look at today's youth. 1. Randy Brandt talks over a paper with Mr. Koerper. 2. Mr. Koerper talks over youth problems in one of his classes. 3. Lori Slee works on a youth project. 4. Kim Tracy and Ron Moore talk over an assignment. 5.

Under the capable direction of Mr. Ed German and Mr. Gordon Page, this goal is be- ing accomplished. Most of the students at Western are only exposed to the outer-edge of the Music program through the chorale, but the ministry of the department as a whole goes much further than that. Students who are declared Music Majors serve as accompanists or song leaders in the churches they attend, thus get- ting an exposure to what will be required of them when they go out into the field. ill lui! Mr. German and Mr. Page expect much from their students, for outside of the classes students are re- quired to spend twelve hours of practice a week on the applied music field. This seemed to add an ex- tra strain to the student, but in the end, those students in the Music Department realized that the added pressure is a catalyst for them to strive for quality in the ministry God has given them. 1. Mr. Page works on music with piano major Marta Marah. 2. Van Trapp gives a program in chapel. 3. Mr. German works on conduc- ting in Intro. to Music. 4. More ministry by Van Trapp. 5. Mr. Page works on ear training in Advanced Theory. i ACRGSS T 21 44 ,kyfl UUR Co 51 4 -I C U lla 0 fi C ll! E u- 7 F LI' VH I! LQ LE. F M we ffj F 1 jI-mivii 'M UM .I-A -Q Q- Us 4 QS LH cg Mission Fields Aids Decision for Many For many of us, the idea of missionary work is nice, but we'II leave it for someone else to do. And yet, under the direction of Lem Morgan the Missions Department has been having an exposure and an im- pact on many of the students at Western. One of the most popular ways for the students to be exposed to the mission field is by summer mis- sions. Through this, students can spend from five to ten weeks working hand-in-hand with a career mis- sionary to get exposure to what life is like on the front lines. It is through this kind of a program that many students find themselves making commitments for lifetime missionary work. For Mission Majors the classes under Lem Morgan are constantly challenging them to broaden their scope of ministry to see that many things fall under the misison oriented emphasis. Many students have ministries in preaching and teaching with an emphasis geared toward learning how they can use this as a mission oriented disciple ministry. 1.

Perhaps you have sat across from him in his office as he counselled you concerning an improtant decision. Perhaps you have been with him and his family in his home for a meal. Perhaps you have sat in a classroom as he taught - anything from Spiritual Life to Modern Missions Strategy. But for sure, all of us have seen the dedication and zeal in his face for spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ throughout the World. For surely all of us have heard the earnestness in his voice to encourage us to openly consider the mission field as God's will for our life. Of course I am speaking about Mr Lem Morgan Having completed six years at Western he feels it is time to return to the front lines Starting June 1 1982 he will be the director of Euro pean Ministries for O C S C with whom he has already serv ed for twelve years From all the students who have sat in your classes from the one hundred and forty who have gone out on summer missions from all of us who have been influenced by your commitment we thank you and pledge to pray for you and we give praise to God for your ministry in our lives here at WBC Mr Morgan because of Him we love you and look for ward to the day when we will stand together with you along with representatives from every nation tribe people and tongue praising the Lamb of God 'Y ,J as I H L B4 '1 I 6 Tl iii fi.

They are the teachers, staft, administration they are the core of the shcool. Without them, we, as students would have no reason to be here. There was much readjustment to be done this year, as the school gain- ed four new staff and lost three. But, to the students it was just a further example ot the willingness of our leaders to be used of God. Through the year these people have been an example, teacher, and counselor to many students and for that we are truly grateful. 1. Paul Borden gets his morning fix. 2.

One was his commitment to know the Word of God and to make that knowledge a reality in his life. The second was to communicate to students that knowledge, while encouraging them to implement in their lives the truths they were learning. His love for the Word and for books about the Word insured the fact that Mr. Shelley was prepared for class. I consider his ability to ex- egete the Word of God and his perceptiveness in understanding the exegesis of others to be outstanding. Often I would ask him questions regarding the meaning of certain passages and after doing research, Bob would provide answers that demonstrated the thoroughness ot his study. However, his commitment to evangelism and his concern for reaching lost individuals provided the kind of balance that kept him from being an ivory tower scholar. I was personally challenged to be more involved in evangelism by Mr. SheIley's lite example As Dean I was impressed with his concern for students His patience in answering questions counseling outside of class and consistent in terest in what was best for the students were evidences of a commitment to minister on a number of levels to many students Often in discussion with me about situations regarding students Mr Shelley s first question was What is best for them? I personally have appreciated his friendship and his commitment to the ministry of W B C l also appreciated his willingness to go beyond the call of duty to do things that benefited students even though it cost him personally In behalf of the col lege I thank Mr Shelley for his service idea Lori Jones Roland Kincher E9 '1 . f .Ct ' fn Marylin Nieharl Leia N6w10rl Marc Norman Gordon Page Dick Rollins Bob Shelley rn it I-.4 Jonothan Smith Sondra Tucker Deloris Watters - -Q l 4 1 School Board Follows God's Leadingf 1.1 52 The responsibilities of making spiritual, financial and executive decisions concerning Western Bible College and its auxiliary ministries such as KWBI rests on the shoulders of the board of trustees.

Vice-President of Stewardship Jules Svidunovichg Pastoral Major Jim Thomason Susan Wuthrick ln the course of four years, a class experiences many changes In 1978 nearly 70 or 80 freshmen walked onto the campus of Western Bible College. This May, 7 of those original freshmen will receive their diplomas. That is not a negative statistic, however! Many of those originals have gone on to serve our Lord in other areas of life. Some have gone on to secular universities. Others have gotten married and are now establishing Christian homes. Still others are now professional peo- ple who live for Christ by sharing their faith through their various jobs. No matter where they are, we are confident that God is using them as they submit their lives to Him. These 7 are not the only graduates, however! The graduating class of 1982 will be comprised of original members, continuing students who will graduate the year after this, and transfer students from Moody Bi- ble Institute. Together we have been taught the word of God. Our lives have been brought under the descipline of God's Holy Spirit as we have undergone several mon- ths of training. We rejoice to think about what God had done and what He is going to do in our lives. You see, we the class of '82, realize that our time at W.B.C. will really pay-off as we go into the world and influence people for Jesus Christ. We would like to thank our very dedicated faculty for their tireless efforts in teaching us truths from the Scriptures. lt is our prayer that we may not let those truths lie dor- mant in our hearts but that we have opportunity to put them into practice in a very practical ministry upon graduation.

The year began with elections for class officers. The follow- ing were elected: Collin Green, presidentg Tim Kettenring, vice-presidentg Kim Tracy, secretary, and Doug Adair, stu- dent council representative. With the change from fall to spr- ing semester, came a turnover of the office of vice-president from Tom Kettenring to Terry Rogers. Serving was the theme of the Freshman Social. After a month of planning, the day of the social arrived. Class members worked together to transform the dining room into a pizza parlor with red checked tablecloths and curtains, soft candlelight, music, and the aroma of pizza lingering in the air. Waiters to serve the people in the pizza parlor and a babysit- ting service also had a special part in the theme of serving. A game and fellowship time was also a part of the evening events. The unity of the 1981-82 Freshman class was apparent in their willingness to serve each other in prayer and by working together to give glory to God. 1.

Stalfers: Colleen Diddams Helen McFarland Paul Huff Caralee Kurtzer To many of you, this may sound like redundant hub-bub, but please, bear with. The purpose of the yearbook is to hold, in picture and written form, those memories that make up the school year. We, as a staff, hope we have reached this goal. For me, I am thankful that the book is out, and that those memories are forever secure. The responsibility of taking on a new staff was a major challenge for meg and yet, through the en- couragement and love of many friends, the book is out. I worked with staffers who were so willing to give their all . . . thanks, I couldn't have had a better crew to work with.' And now, for the sentimental sap, I want to say a public thanks to those people who were the core of my encouragement and perseverance. To Paul Inks, my head photographer. He always got his shot's done on time, pulled a few needed tricks out of his hat, and helped me to keep my head screwed on straight. To Elsie Fick, our advisor. She was so willing to help, and her genuine interest in the book, and overall mainstay attitude really encouraged me. And finally, to my daddy, Gordon Page, thanks. He was a spirtual father to me, he encouraged me, and believed, that through God, I was capable of handling the responsibility I was undertaking. I learned to believe, that through a Soveriegn God, all things are possible. We, the staffers of the 1981-82 yearbook have created a book of memories. We hope you enjoy it, and yet, are challenged by it. Challenged to see that we are here at Western to be taught, and then to go and teach others. It is my prayer that this book will glorify our Almighty God. In Our Lord, IQUMK. Q64 QQ i 1 ,rl W o 1 V V I fl ,HL
