JAMES NIKKEL, Dean Elm Creek, Manitoba It has become clear to me, that in order to let the Word of God dwell in me richly” it is necessary to study, and to know the Scriptures. It is through the study of His Word that we realize our insignificance and our dependence on God. I am thankful that I have experienced God’s Word to be a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.” Psalm 119:105. MARLENE KLASSEN, Class Vice-President Plum Coulee, Manitoba I am thankful that I have had the opportunity to finish my Bible School training. Although studies sometimes brought discouragements, I thank the Lord that He has helped and blessed me again this year. My prayer is ex¬ pressed in Psalms 139:23-24. “Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts; And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.” ERWIN PENNER, Class President Holmfield, Manitoba In Deut. 1:36 we read of Caleb that he “wholly followed the Lord”. As a result of his complete dedication to God there followed many blessings and rewards. It has become the prayer and desire of my heart, during my Bible School days, that I might, with all my being, serve Him faithfully. Not only to receive blessings and rewards but to glorify, with my life, Him, who ransomed and saved me. I know He will give strength for He has said, “My grace is suf¬ ficient for thee.” II Cor. 12:9. 18

JAKE FALK Winnipeg, Manitoba “That I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being made conform¬ able unto His death.” Philippians 3:10. Conformity speaks of identity. Identifying ourselves with the death of Christ means dying to self. Only as we die to self can we live for Christ. My prayer: “Lord help me to die!” NEIL FUNK Elm Creek, Manitoba These years at Bible School have been a real inspiration and enjoyment to me. They have stablished my faith and helped me to treasure my salvation. Now I can say with Paul in Gal. 2:20 “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” HENRY DUECK, Dormitory Dean Boissevain, Manitoba In Deuteronomy 4:5 Moses tells the Israelites, “Behold I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as the Lord my God commanded me.” Here in Bible School the Lord has taught me His statutes and judgments through the teachers, and many others. Daily have I heard and read about the Lord. As a result of studying His Word I have become better prepared for service in His vineyard. I have experienced great things form the Lord here in school. The exhortation that Moses gives the Israelites in the ninth verse of the same chapter, is also an exhortation to me, namely, not to forget what the Lord has done for me. 19
