Chapel Youth Fellowship XS- 4 - gsk M 4 wif' C.Y.F. officers: Werner VonBergen, president, Wilma Gardziella, Rodger Reed, Ross Kinsler. The Ambassador Gospel Team that brought us a real message in one of the chapel services 66 C.Y.F. was to most everyone who attended, a time of real fellowship and blessing in the Lord. The meet- ings were planned by the students themselves, and an interesting variety of programs resulted. Special speakers, movies, including Mr. Texas, put out by Billy Graham, and Lord of All, by the King's College, and alumni night were some of the high- lights of the year. Many of the programs were put on entirely with- out outside talent , and sparked by testimonies. There was missionary kid's night, when some of the m. k.'s in the school gave a brief sketch of the field where their parents are serving. Panel discussions added interest with students supplying the topics. Something new was a night when everyone with musical talent performed in an all music night. At each meeting the special music was supplied by different groups such as the girls' trio, the boys' quartette, the trumpet trio, and many solos and duets. This gave them a real opportunity to use their talent for the Lord and also gain practical experience in performing before a group. QQ
