Alexande r When asked to serve on the Board of the Bapti t School of the Bible, 13407 Kin man in Cleveland, we be– came interested and looked into the ituation. We found the phy ical faciliitie in need of repair, remodel– ing and redecorating. The faculty wa overworked and under taffed; we offered our services. Beginning September 1, we wil1 be pending full ,time jn the chool a teacher, printer, and field repre enta– tive; any one of which could become a full time job. Mrs. Alexander will be teaching in the night school. If finance become adequate, he 11 al o teach jn the day sessions. President Theodore B. Wimer former mi sionary to Africa under Bapti t Mid-Mi ions, and Dean Wal– ter L. Banks have a consecrated taff of volunteer teacher and mi ionary worker . All of them are doing two or more job to keep the school going. The e people ee the field white unto harve t and are thru ting in their ickle. For a dedicated Christian to ee the need i to re pond. The American Negro i probably America' mos,t neglecited mis ion field. In metropoli– tan area 1the need i vast and hard upon our heel . Legi lation, integra– tion, job equality, etc. are not as im– portant a evangelization and in true- BAPTIST BIBLE tion in the Word by their O}vn people. B.S.B. is dedicated to thi ta k. A recent i sue of the "Home Fel– low hip News" told of Rev. and Mr . Jame Parker being accepted a mi - ionaries under the Fellow hip of Bap– ti t for Home Mi sions. The Parker are graduate of B.S.B. and have , until now been under the chool' upervi ion. I be1ieve there are ithree Negro couple , all graduate of B.S.B., now being proce ed under F.B.H.M. Recently I preached in the Cleveland New Home Bapti t Church. Rev. 1'Ic– J unkin, the pa tor, i a graduate. The e are all product of the chool. We mu t provide a broader ba e of u,pport for colored grad uat and we mu 1: also provide more financ for the chool's operation. A field repre- entaitive I am prayerfully a king God for $10 000 this year to help turn the chool toward a more hopeful fin– ancial outlook. The 19 000,000 eg– roe of America mu t be taught the Scripture or they will be left without foundation for moral, ethical or pir– itual living. One hundred year of neglect cannot be atoned for, but we can repent and begin here and now to trengthen thi ,tried and proved chool in preparing qualified pa tor . teacher , evangeli t , and al o ,prac– tical lay worker .
