FACULTY AND STAFF OF THEYEAR Stuart Chaff& Staff Member of the Year 11 Dr. James Phtpps: Faculty Member of the Year Dr.James Phipps: t is hard to express the gratitude that is felt or receiving a student generated award. To be recognized by those that you seek to serve s a great honor. The Lord has given me a great love for Cedarville College and its students; and, in ret- rospect, I can see His leading in so many of the events of my life here. He has provided for me a family which also loves the college and is very supportive of me in the amount of effort that is necessary to try to do a good .job as a reacher. He has also provided faculty, colleagues, and administrators who continually challenge Mr. Stuart Chaffe: o be associated with Cedarville College means very much to me because it stands "For the Word of God and The Testimony of Jesus Christ." As a student it was a privilege for me to sir under the instruction of Godly profes- sors and also to listen to chapel speakers who contributed to my spiritual growth. Friendships made during those student days have contin- ued through the years and have been a source of rich blessing. As a staff member,it is ojoy for me to have the opportunity to serve the Lord in a Christian environment and to enjoy the fellowship of members of the college family. To have a small parr on a ream that is preparing students for their future ministry is very rewarding. I am grateful to God for giving me a dedicated staff that enjoys their work and does it as unto the Lord. Although serving the entire college family is a pleasure, it is particularly thrilling to meet second generation students and M.K.'s whose parents were former classmates. It has been on exciting experience to watch the Lord bless and enlarge the ministry of Ce- darville College during the 29 years that my wife and I have been associated with it. Along me me, my wife and daughter are proud to have Cedarville College as our Almo Mater. Should the Lord so will, we would be delighted to see our three granddaughters also graduate from Cedarville College. Stuart Choffe me to grow professionally and spiritually. These people are more valuable to me than anyone can express. The faculty award could have easily been awarded to many of them. It is my prayer that we may all be able to work together to see God's work continue or Cedarville by challenging each other to grow in our relationship with Him. 139
