  • Lighthouse on the Hill: the Bluefield
    The Bluefield College Story Lighthouse on the Hill: Retired Senior Professor of History By: Rev. David M. Armbrister Resiliency! This is a word that aptly fits the story of Bluefield College. Financial issues have beset the school since its beginning, often giv- ing those directly associated with its operation, as well as those simply interested in its welfare, concern about its continuance as an education- al institution. If there had not been men and women of strong faith and characterized by their willingness to make great sacrifices, the college might not exist today. There would be no eighty-fifth anniversary celebration in 2007. We can be thankful for that band of men who made that trip to Bristol, Virginia in a day when travel was not easy. The enthusiasm and drive that they took with them established a model that others would follow in supporting a Baptist college and, initially, a fitting school equivalent to a high school for southwest Vir- ginia. The courage and determination that ac- companied their great belief that the school was in God’s plan continued to uplift and guide the institution through its early years. These same qualities and convictions have enabled the school to overcome its problems and emerge as one of Virginia’s leading institutions of higher learning today. The author of this work has sought to present this marvelous story in a manner that will cap- ture the unique spirit of this school and those who have been associated with it through the years. His prayer is that the story will awaken a new understanding of the service that the col- lege has rendered in its eighty-five years and provide the groundwork on which it can go for- ward in the years ahead.

Up to 1,000 Army troops and even a small number of federal survey* ors and secretaries prepared Fri­ day for crash firefighting courses that would enable them to Join nearly 20,000 firefighters, some from as far away as tte East Coast, who were trying to contain the worst rash of fires in a decade. Most of the scorched earth was in California, where 375,000 acres were blackened, and Oregon, where the total reached 75,000 acres. “We’ve got a lot of tired people out in the hills," said Ray Naddy, a spokesman for firefighters in Oregon. About 16,000 people were forced to flee the flames, all but 1,000 of them in California. The Pentagon said Friday even­ ing that nearly 1,000 soldiers from Fort Ord, near Monterey, Calif., would be trained Saturday and be deployed Sunday, said Maj.

  • March 29-April 2 Because It Is Holy Week We Break from Our Regular Cycle of Devotions
    Devotions for Holy Week: March 29-April 2 Because it is Holy Week we break from our regular cycle of devotions. Monday of Holy Week – Prayer of the Week Almighty and everlasting God, You sent Your Son, our Savior Jesus Christ, to take upon Himself our flesh and to suffer death upon the cross. Mercifully grant that we may follow the example of His great humility and patience and be made partakers of His resurrection; through the same Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. My mother used to admonish us to be a little careful what we prayed for. We might get it. In February of his senior year, my son was studying hard for his AP exams. He eagerly watched the weather reports of a threatening storm system which could bring snow. In Portland even an inch or two of snow paralyzes the city and they call off school. The storm skirted north of us and we only got rain. Portland never cancels school for rain. My son turned his eyes upward and prayed, “God, I could really use a couple days off from school.” That was late February 2020. Two weeks later his school and almost every other school in the nation shut down for the rest of the year. We pray in this prayer that God would mercifully give us to follow Jesus’ example of humility and patience so we can partake in the resurrection. Think about that for a moment in Holy Week.

  • Showing Sparks with the New Guys November Wasn't The
    Sporting's November recap: Showing sparks with the new guys November wasn't the best month but it seems like Sporting S.C. is starting to turn things around with their new squad as they went 1-1-1. Sporting SC players before a game at Randall's Island. Sporting SC Images After ending their first two months in the Cosmopolitan Soccer League’s top division in last place with a 1-5 record, Sporting SC hit the reset button yet again. They signed a dozen of prominent players and welcomed familiar faces with hopes of igniting a revival. You could mistake their roster for one of the giants’ rosters in the CSL as they added names like Sikele ‘Kele’ Sylvester and Karim Russell, two former Lansdowne Yonkers F.C. players who won the CSL and the Amateur Cup; Emmanuel Agboola an ex-CUNYAC star, Joseph Lopez, a well- known player in Long Island from his high school and college days and so on. It wasn’t just the new players that improved their roster but also the returnees. Three men who played a vital role in SSC's promotion last season returned to the club: defender Michael Natsu, keeper Laurence Girard and midfielder Maximilian Mansfield. Mansfield didn’t just come back as a player but also became the team’s head coach. As expected, the new player-coach noted that it was “difficult” to take all the new players under his wings during the middle of the season and establish chemistry. Nevertheless, with such an attractive roster it was somewhat safe to bet on Sporting to start dismantling other teams in the CSL in November.
