The Ohio Independent Baptist, January 1961

January, 1961 THE OHIO INDEPENDENT BAPTIST Page Twenty-three Among Our Approved Schools CEDAR'\TILLE BECOMI G A ATIO WIDE SCHOOL Recently a map ,vas sent out by Ceda1ville College showing the num– b er of students from each state. It is most interesting. Far away Idaho has sLx, and the states west of the Mississippi ftlffiish 39 of the 352 stu– dents. Illinois has sent us 24, Indiana 29, and Michigan 76, Pennsylvania 29, and New York 12. Far away Maine has sent one. aturally Ohio fur– nisl1es more than any one state, but its 116 are not quite half of the stu– dent body. All this goes to prove, even as a glance at the list of contributors, that the churches and you11g people of the GARBC are more and more ac– cepting Cedarville as THEIR col– lege. rrhe bond sales continue good, with $118,000 worth already sold. How– ever, $32,000 more must be sold before another series can be issued for future expansion. ext summer such expansion MUST be undertaken, and so it wot1ld b e well for those who have 1noney to lend to consider this opportunity to help a growing funda– mental school and yet get 5% interest.

H ere is what LABTS says: "LABTS is patiently maintaining its position of funda– me11 tal Baptist minis by, and making no concessio11s to tl1e partial-flood theory, the sub-verbal inspiration theory (whatever that is ) the in– tegratio11ist band-wagon and the 'love' panacea. These efforts to enjoy grace without b·uth seem to us to under– mine the basic character of the Gos- 1" pe. A new Student Missions Fellow– ship has been organized with the as– sistance of its faculty advisor, Miss Virginia Allen. The student spon– sored Missionary Conference is sched– uled for Feb. 6-10. ---------- BAPTIST BIBLE SEMI ARY, JOH SO CITY, . Y. vVe covet the prayers of the Lord's people as we endeavor to minister to the hundreds of young people who make t1p the sh1de11t body of our school. In these days of deepening spiritual darkness, we are more keen– I y avvare than ever of 011ir obligations to provide students with the type of WE'RE THE SAME COLOR UNDERNEATH! Mrs. Alta Jacobson repo rts from Bangas– sou Central Afri can Republic the church at Yaloungo wanted a Bible ~on~er~nce, with the 8 churches in the djstrict 1nv1ted, and for two months worked and gathered huge amounts of food so they cou ld feed the 1,000 attending. Of course, we would not bring in 4 big monkeys and 13. huge pieces of hippo meat, but we do fix up our churches before we hold an annual as– soc1ac1onal meeting. Well, they had the same prjJe built a large children's chapel, made 40 ~eat church benches, and laid a cement floor in their church so rhey would not be ashamed of their church when the visitors came. Result? The Lord's work in the whole Owango D1stri ct has taken on new life. Why, they are so much like ~s, it e~en helps to gee the parents of their m1s~1on schools co organize boards of education. Four schools have now sucl1 boards. and they are seei ng to 1t that the parents pay tuition and support the teachers TWO TO f·IVH MOR · Yl•AR ?

It gives us pleasure to report that we are e11joying another fine year here at B.B.S. Ot1r chapel praise services, i11 particular, have reflected the zeal and drive of tl1e students as they study a11d engage in extracur– ricular activities . Recently the Honor Society con– dt1cted a panel i11 chapel dealing with the matter of academic achieve– ment through adequate study habits. The disct1ssion amongst panel mem– bers a.nd that from the floor proved enlightening and cl1allenging. President Woolsey reports the need for additional funds in our general operational account. With the ac– quisition of our new administration building has come the expected in– crease in our operatio11al exp enses. Those desiring to share in the work of the Lord as it is being carried on here are invited to send their gifts to the Baptist Bible Seminary, Johnson City, . Y.
