The teamwork, so vital in every workshop, was obvious at Wooster. Upper right: Elder Kenneth Berry, pastor of the host church, had the morning devotional. Doris Dias, shown with him, chaired the five-hour mini journalism school. The luncheon was in the hands of three capable ladies: (upper left) Linda Ruybalid, wife of the Wooster press secretary; Rita Coleman, Akron University graduate with a degree in food service management; and Kathryn Barnett, who with her husband, Glenn, owns and operates a restaurant in Wooster. No meal anywhere has ever tasted better. The church press secretary at Lorain, Herschel Kochenower, was brought to the session by his pastor, George Khoury. Both are shown on lower left. Three rosebuds were presented: one to G. Clayton Sowler, of the Mount Vernon Hills church, for his excellent work, though retired; Mary Lou Goodwin, wife of the East Liverpool pastor, for opening new areas for news; and F. W. Hudgins for braving the elements to carry the instructional load.

Steve Gifford interviews some of the newly baptized. Singers from the Beautiful Valley Missionary Training Center. Draws Very Well in Sutton

The baptism of twenty-two at the close of Dave Green's meetings and five more since then pushed the charter membership of the newly formed Sutton church to 38. The twenty-two were a direct result of the Amazing Facts Crusade held in Sut- ton, West Virginia. Attendance at the 4-week series ran between 150 and 200 nightly. This is extremely high because only 2,000 individuals reside in the towns of Sutton and Gassaway where the meetings were held. The story of Dave Green's personal conversion was retold one night.

Most readers will agree that we have been negligent in not seeking a closer fellowship with ministers of other faiths. As a part of the continuing relationship with the readers of this journal, the Ministry staff has cooperated with the local conferences of the Columbia Union in pres- enting all-day Bible seminars to which they have been invited. It is hoped that in the future similar seminars will be conducted in all areas where the Ministry goes. We invite the membership of the church to pray with us for the success of this venture. We would appeal, also, to ministers and laymen alike to form closer friendships with the ministers of other faiths that they may have a more positive understanding of our beliefs and our concern for their welfare.

Dr. Klimes pointed out in the Sab- bath worship service the importance of studying the accounts of the Lord's Supper as a model for a group deci- sion-making meeting. Reversing the usual order of serv- ice, the 11 o'clock hour was devoted to small-group study of specified texts in the Gospel accounts of Mat- thew and John. The discussions were quite thought provoking as each group prayerfully attempted to ana- lyze the texts and determine how the principles and issues involved in the New Testament could be applied to modern issues, particularly the next board meeting.

Virgil Robinson (above), retired director of studies at Home Study Institute, had the pleasure of assisting with the dedication of his granddaughter Jaime—his fourth grandchild (all girls). Jaime's parents are James and Jennifer Seekford. Julia Rani Pulidindi, daughter of Raju and Violet; Jonathan Jenks, son of Rodney and Helen; and Mohan Simon, son of Leonard and Rani, were also given to the Lord.

The idea, borrowed from Pastor Edward Bartter's native England, features large quantities of fresh fruits, vegetables, and nuts attractively arranged in the front of the sanctuary. Bread in the shape of a sheaf of wheat is reminiscent of the wave sheaf brought by Israel to the tabernacle as they presented the "first fruits" to the Lord.

The Chesapeake Adva ......

CONFERENCE OF SEVENTH-DAV ADVENTISTS

January 1978 6600 MARTIN RD., COLUMBIA, MARYLAND 21044 TELEPHONE (301) 461-9100 Dear Fellow Chesapeake Members:

For some time I have dreamed of the day we could come to you with a better plan for advancing the work in Chesapeake. We believe that God has a plan for a finished work and we have been studying for the past several months to find those places where our plans need to be changed or strengthened.

We are now bringing to you the Chesapeake Advance Plan as the result of our study and planning. Let me share with you the features of the Chesapeake Advance Plan.

First, we are asking you to join us in a program of Spiritual renewal. We will not always remain Laodicean. We can become a church transformed, with heavenly characters prepared for Christ's coming. Must we wait many years for this change? No! By God's grace it can be now.

Second, we need at least 1000 teams of active, witnessing members, and each department of our church geared to personal soul-winning. Not because we are urged but because we love the Lord and also the lost around us.

The Chesapeake Advance Plan involves these provisions and methods for soul-winning and strengthening the work: PUBLIC EVANGELISM: Last year 254 precious souls were brought to the truth through the efforts of our pastors and evangelists and laymen. We must increase our outreach. Our objective is 650 souls in 1978. CHRISTIAN EDUCATION: We must upgrade facilities and make all of our schools available to every Chesapeake young person. , East- ern Shore Junior Academy, and many of our smaller schools need capital improvements. YOUTH CAMP FACILITIES: There is an increased demand for use of our youth camp. In 1977, 1448 people used the camp and many found Christ there. We must repair, replace, and expand. Thirdly, we are launching an adventure in faith for the support of Chesapeake Advance. We are asking each member to regularly, systematically, set aside a portion of his in- come for Chesapeake Advance. We are suggesting 1-20. We will not call for special collections for these various programs. Instead we will depend on your regular gift for Chesapeake Advance. We believe this will greatly simplify your giving.

Let us all work together, putting first things first, seeking spiritual renewal, and in faith, expecting great things from God as we make His kingdom first.

Sincerelyy

All we possess is the Lord's, and we are accountable to Him for the use we CHRISTIAN make of it."—Christ's Object Lessons, p. 351. STEWARDSHIP TALENT "We shall individually be held responsible for doing one jot less than we have ability to do. . . . For all that we might become through the right use of our talents God holds us responsible."—Christ's Object Lessons, p. 363.

Every Chesapeake Adventist can certainly embrace the financial phase of this project. Each week, if you will enclose only 1-2 percent of your increase and mark the envelope as indicated, your offering will flow through the church channel to operate Chesapeake Advance without the need for special collections.

On the Road

Besides continuing to serve up their usual fare of diffi- cult classes in calculus, physics, astronomy, and statistics, the math/physics department at Columbia Union College is offering some exciting new options this year. For the first time in CUC's history, classes for the second year of engineering have been offered. Jim Roberts, of Gaithersburg, Maryland, will be the program's first grad- uate in April. "It's an excellent program," explained de- partment chairman, Dr. Edwin Karlow, "because the stu- dent earns a degree he can use immediately, but even more importantly, because of our affiliation with Walla Walla Dan Jones (freshman, medical tech- College in Washington State he can go there and earn a nology), Dr. Luis Oms, and Bonnie .11111111 four-year degree in just two more years."

The two-year degree is transferable to any accredited college, but Walla Walla's offer can hardly be refused. Because the two schools make plans together, students from CUC are guaranteed that all their credits will be accepted at Walla Walla. Even more enticing is the prom- ise of a free plane ticket from the accepted student's home to Washington State. Also new this year are three one-day workshops. "These are designed for academy students who are specially in- terested in math and physics," related Karlow. The four- hour workshops in computer programming, observational astronomy, and high-fidelity measurements are con- ducted by a member of the math/physics staff with assist- ance from one or two majors in the department. "We will take all our own equipment with us, even portable telescopes and microcomputers, although more elaborate programming will be done on CUC's computer by telephone," said Karlow. The department is also making a "traveling suitcase laboratory" available, which will be mailed to requesting schools for a month. Included in the digital mini-module traveling labs are an operating manual of experiments, Fred Wire (senior, physics) and Dr. Ed Karlow check out a Sony tape circuit modules, a power supply, and mounting board. recorder. This traveling lab is designed for students who work well independently.
