Hayes Center Saturday to celebrate Kwanzaa with a feeling of closeness, spirit, warmth and thanksgiving. The pre-Kwanzaa festival was sponsored by Sassy Crnfrin' Sistas, a group of local artists. Deborah Perry, event coordinator for SIUC's Undergraduate Admissions and Sassy Craftin' Sistas member, said the craft festivals used to be held in the members' homes, but they wanted to extend the pre-Kwanzaa celebration to include chil­ dren and more people in the community. This is when. they decided to mO\·e the festi\':U to the Eurma C. Hayes Center. "Crafts start with the reading ofa stol}; motion of music and dialogue with other people," Peny said.

Davidson Americans have always traveled abroad whether as merchants, military service members, missionaries, reporters, or simply, “tourists.” Most return safely, but some have been taken captive by foreign governments, terrorists and criminal organizations. Though many have studied their struggles, no wide-scale attempt has been made to understand the role religious faith played in enduring their captivities. If understood, such information could be used in training those who may be exposed to similar circumstances in the future, and may have devotional value for others enduring crises. In this study, one hundred seventy-eight international travelers are surveyed, assessing their expectations of and preparation for, the spiritual dynamics of a potential captivity. Historic cases are presented, observations are made, and recommendations are presented for those at risk and those ministering to them. Abstract length: 128 words. iv CONTENTS ABSTRACT . iv CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION. 1 Statement of the Problem.
