My parents were saved during my early childhood so naturally 1 came under Christian influence. Early I acknowledged my lost condition and began to seek for salvation. My only hope and peace I found in the promises of God and Christ’s finished work. I desired to attend Bible School and the Lord unexpectedly opened my way, so that I have had the joy of studying God’s Word during these past three years. I trust God for life and service and blessing in the ministry of the Word. —Emil Riegel. —•— Having been born into a Christian family I began to learn early of the blessings of God. How¬ ever, I did not accept Christ as my Saviour until 1 reached my late teens. Then I really began to taste of the precious truths of the Bible. Bible school began with special classes and night school, but a taste created hunger for more, so I began to attend full time. There have been years of precious feasting upon the Word of God at the feet of my adorable Saviour. My desire is to serve my Lord wherever He leads me, to invite others to “Taste and see that the Lord is good.” •— Hazel Woods. —•— Saved by grace through faith according to promise. John G: 37—“All that the Father giveth Me shall come to Me; and him that cometh to Me 1 will in no wise cast out.” Being conscious of my noed of salvation 1 sought it,-but it was not until I turned to my Bible and read John G: 37 that 1 found any .satisfaction. Having, I believed, this, I could say “Just as I am without one plea, but that Thy Blood was shed for me, and that Thou bids! me come to Tlico, Oh Lamb of God, I come. ' ’ Being assured of His safe-keeping and know¬ ing that “ He leadeth me,” I can stand on His Word for future guidance. As I leave school 1 take as my guide Psalms 37:4, 6—“Delight thy¬ self also in the Lord, and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the Lord, trust also in Him and He shall bring it to pass.”— Elizabeth Unran. “Commit thy way unto the Lord: trust also in Him; and He shall bring it to jxiss. Psalm 37: 5. Shortly after I found Christ as my Saviour, I felt that I should go into special service for Him, but circumstances prevented me from making thorough preparation. Nevertheless, when I said “yes” to God, I looked away from seemingly hope¬ less circumstances, and asked Him to open the way. Today I praise Him for His faithfulness to me. I have had the privilege of attending Bible School for three years, years of blessing for me. Here in Bible School I learned to know Him bet¬ ter through His Word and to trust and love Him more. No, Christ did not disappoint me; I com¬ mitted myself to Him and He has directed my path. To Him be glory and praise.— J. G. Gyorog. —•— “Oh for a thousand tongues to praise my great Redeemer’s name.” I came to know and love the Lord when 1 was quite young. God spoke to my heart through an accident in which 1 was critically injured. I do praise Him for His faithfulness and also for tlie joy lie lias given me in the study of His Word in the past few years. As for the future I would say with the hymn- writer: “Oil, I love the Christ who died for me; I am content Ilis Child to be, The path ahead I need not see, The Lord I love, lie leadeth me.” —Miriam 11. Ross. Several years ago in an evangelistic meeting in Saskatchewan tlie Lord Jesus saved my soul. I was “not redeemed witli corruptible things as silver and gold, but with the precious Blood of Christ.” I became “a new creature in Christ Jesus.” When I was willing to say, “not my will, but Thine be done,” He directed my steps to the W. B. 1. Happy have been the moments in tlie study of His precious Word, and in fellowship with my blessed Lord, and fellow students. The future is unknown, yet I can put my hand in His, and know that He will guide me. He is my “unfailing Friend.” — Iola Morlc.

Page 11 WINNIPEG BIBLE INSTITUTE c hird Year Hazel Woods Is vice-president. That she is capable is evident. Her accusing finger or reproving eye Is sufficient to make every student comply. Beatrice Ross does her work at ease, In typing or playing runs over the keys. She moulds young musicians for their career. She’ll be used in His service both far and near. Iola Mork is a quiet little lass, But she can be heard in the sermon class. Are preachers born or made, we wonder? She must lie “made.” Just hear her yonder. Emil Riegel for his memory is noted. His exam, papers show what the teachers have quoted. Relating bright stories he often is found. We enjoy them. So does he—if they don’t rebound. Elizabeth Unrau is small and fair, So quiet you hardly would know she is there. An ambitious young lady is Beth, you can tell, For she’s working and taking night classes as well. Alma Warkentin creates such a glad atmosphere We’ll be happy next term to find her still here, But our rivals in Roland will miss her, ’tis true. They can have her for week-ends. That’s all we can do. Joe Gyorog has obligations to meek With a family and church, we’d be run off our feet). But he still finds time for study and fun, And keeps us all cheerful when exams, have begun. Bernice Stenberg, like Zacchaeus, is quite small, But she enjoys study more than we all. She has lots to say and says it with zest, But argument is what she seems to like best. Psalm 121 has been a great blessing to me because all our help, leading and guiding, comes from the Lord. I am thankful to God for bring¬ ing me to the Winnipeg Bible Institute. I can see now that it was His definite leading. As I am unable to graduate this year due to illness, I am looking forward to coming back To the gradu¬ ates 1 wisli God’s richest blessing and guidance as they go forth in His name. -—Alma Warlcentin. —•— The dear Lord came to find me When I was deep in sin, To give me life eternal And other souls to win He has a plan already made, Although I cannot see, Clearly what His plan may be All stored away for me. I know if I will closely live Near to my Saviour’s side, He will take my hand in His And in my heart abide. And when my Saviour leads me In paths where I may win Other souls, that they may know This peace I have within. Willingly with all my heart My little lamp I’ll trim, My life I’ll live for Jesus; My light shall shine for Him. — B. Stenberg. Members of tke Student Council EMIL RIEGEL, President of Student Body.
