OLD FRIEND DISCOVERED S OME t im e AGO, Reverend Don de Boer, who graduated from the Bible Institute with a Bible major in 1951, and returned to se cure his B.A. from Biola in 1953, made a great find. He discovered a friend o f The King’s Business o f thirty-five years’ standing. In the providence of God, it came about this way: Mr. De Boer, then pastor of the Westgate Conservative Baptist Church of Tacoma, Washington (now pastor of the Conservative First Baptist Church of Lakewood, Colorado) conducted a regular church serv ice for inmates of the Westgate Convalescent Home of Tacoma. Among his “ congregation” was a bright and happy little lady, Mrs. Lydia Wager, who informed the pastor that thirty-five years ago, when she lived in South Dakota, she was given a subscription to The King’s Business as a Christ- mas present. She has been a sub scriber ever since! In the accom panying picture she and Mr. De Boer are looking at a recent issue. He asks: “ I wonder if there is anyone who has been receiving The King’s Business continuously since its inception? How many? Wouldn’t that be interesting in formation for your readers?” We certainly agree that it would. Mr. De Boer adds another worth-while, and deeply-appreci ated, word: “We continue to re member Biola Schools in prayer. We use 3x5 cards in our midweek prayer meeting as prayer remind ers and have one on which is typed: ‘Biola College—president, staff, faculty, students and the building program.’ ” With alumni like this, and sub scribers like this, how can we not know the rich blessing o f God? These two are a faithful and be loved pair indeed !
