CHRI TIAN SCHOOL IS DIFFERENT At the Baptist Christian School in Cleve– land the 4th, 5th and 6th graders were asked co tell in two sentences "Why I Like the Baptise Christian School.' ' Listen to fifth grade Gary Seaman: "The main theme here is 'Learning of Christ.' One of our main subjecrs is the Bible. In our other school it was learning just for a plain education, but here we learn of Christ.' He knows the difference. AVAILABLE FOR BIBLE CONFERENCES Pastor Arthur Houk of the Maranatha Baptist Church of Springfield says he is available for three day Bible conferences or for a one night showing of his Journey to Greece or J ourney to Alaska. He is a very good Bible teacher and his tra– velogues are also very good, filled with the message of salvation and with a mis– sionary challenge. The pictures can be shown by an ordinary projector with him– self as narrator, or if he cannot come, a tape can be played in which he tells the story and gives rhe cue for the chang– ing of the slides.

The church will cooperate with Baptist Mid-Missions in all their metropolitan mission policies and seek to make the work self-supporting as soon as possible. The church and mission will mu– tually agree on the missionary-pastor, and will give to Baptist Mid-Missions for his support as much as they gave their pre– vious pastor. Each six months a review will determine whether the church will be able co take on more of his support. The mission will serve as trustee of any pro– perties that may be acquired during this time of cooperation, after which they will be turned over to the church. In all mat– ters of local testimony and service the church will continue to be self-governing. The missionary pastor for the present will be Rev. Delbert Geer, who had two years of experience in Arkansas, and who v.·as called to Cleveland to assist in the metropolitan mission work being done the: e. Already attendance is picking up, and the promise is bright. The Strongsville work was begun by Rev. H . J . Hemminger, J oe Peles and Henry Hunsicker four years ago this month. Mr. Peles had ronclncrer\ ? • nndav school for about six months previously. It was organized as the First Baptist Church lo11gh from Liberia led in. pra) 1 er. A ladies' trio from tryker.

In the spring of 1960 Pastor H . J. Hemminger retired and Deacon Phillip Kimes took over the work, servi ng until this new arrangement could be completed. H enry H unsicker writes that he feels that First Baptist of trongsvi lle should not be considered a weak church, for while it is still small in numbers, it is strong in ocher ways. Every family in 1rs active membership receives the 0 .I.B. and Baptist Bulletin. GARBC literature is used in al l classe$ of the unday school . The church contributes 50c a member per month to the national, state and local fell owships on a pro-rata basis. Every call from the Baptise Bl' ilder 's Club is met with a 2 per family contribu tion. Cedarvi lle College receives S l per family per mooch . The Cleveland youth organi– zation, Voice of Christian You th, is also on the missionary budget. The church sends its pastor to the annual meetings of the GARBC and pays his way. It has also invested building fund money in loans to Cedarville College and the Bu ilding Loan Committee o f FBH11. We will agree that very few churches any– where have a better record of full co– operation. May the Lord bless chem in their new efforts to build a strong testi– money in tron{?sville, a gro\ving suburb on the sou th side of Cleveland .
