The Ohio Independent Baptist, February 1972
t lngathering Of Food The boys and girls of the Euclid-Nottingham Baptist Church in Cleveland, Ohio (Rev. Wilbur Rooke, Pastor) had a great time recently when they brought food to the church to be given to the Baptist Children's Horne. • Rev. Donald E. Worch , Executive Director of the Home, was present for this "INGATHERING' of food. Shown in the picture above are "Uncle Henry" (at left) and HUncle Bill" (at right) unloading the food from the van after its arrival in Valparaiso at the Home. The Bapti6t Children's Home now has children from fourteen states, including Ohio. They are happy to work with pastors of fundamental Baptist churches in providing care for those in need. They are not able to care for delinquent or retarded children, but only for homeless children who can function in their school situation. Interested parties should write Brother Worch in care of the Baptist Children's Home, 65 South Franklin Street, Valparaiso, Indiana - 463 83. Phone : ( 219) 462-4111. Wedding Bells! Dr . H. 0. Van Gilder was married December 8th to Mrs. Lois Peters of Blanchester. Mrs. Peter's husband was the victim of an indus trial accident which took his life December 22, 1970. New Student Center Hitchhiking a ride on the Development Department's financial effort through the "Living Building Program," students at Baptist Bible College of Pennsylvania under– took and underwrote the "Living Barn" project last fan. Near the east entrance to campus stands a community landmark - an octagonaJ red barn. For the first few semesters on our new Clarks Summit campus it was used largely for storage purposes. But enterprising students saw in the barn the possibility for a unique student center. The project was presented to the student body in the communications hour one Wednesday and was received with enthusiasm by upper and lower classmen alike. Saturdays were set aside for the tasks to be done. Both fe]Jows and girls contributed money and elbow grease to get the task underway. The east area of campus buzzed with activity as paint brushes moved back and forth across the weathered outside surface and the general buzz of good-natured chatter, saws, and hammers increased as repairs were made on the inside. Enough work was finished by the end of October so that the first use of the "Living Barn" a la Student Center was a party over the Halloween weekend . Mrs. Peters has taught in the public schools of Ohio for fifteen years, and has been active in the First Bapti st church of Blanchester where she has served in various capacities in wo– men's work and in Sunday School and youth activ ities. The wedding took place at the close of the prayer service, and the cere1nony was read by Pastor W. . Al exander . THE CHILDREN'S GOSPEL HOUR, INC.
