MR. & MRS. GAR Y MANTER from Indianapolis, IN

The Lord has used the Institute in a wonderful way to increase our under­ standing o fHimselfand His purpose. Through our study, the Holy Spirit has impressed upon us the greatness o f God’sgrace, love, and faithfulness toward us and our need and privilege to respond to Him.

MISS JAN BARNEY from Kijabe, Kenya (Africa)

I woke up this morning and thanked God for His choosing me to be His own before the foundations of the earth were laid. I’ve learned here at the Institute how to rely on God for each little thing, and to listen for that still small voice of Christ to direct me in His perfect path.

Jan can enjoy ping pong with anyone who will challenge her.

MISS LINDA WISE from Bowmansville, PA

/ wondered what it would be like, a new environment, new friends, an entirely new situation. But God already had His perfect plan in my life unfolding and Word of Life Bible Institute was just a part of it. This one year of concentrated Bible study, memorization, and most of all the practical use on week-end ministries are helping me to unfold God’s perfect plan fo r my life.

MR. SIMON PETER WATTIMURY from Jakarta-Indonesia

Every day I am learning so many great things of God’s love through His Word, and how I should love others enough to tell them about God’s love for them. The wonderful fellowship among brothers and sisters in Christ has been a real strengthening factor toward my spiritual growth. I thank God for this Institute.

MR. HOWARD WILLIAMS from Utica, NY

The college and career program on the Word of Life Island was instrumental in directing me from the challenges of insurance work, to an awareness of obtaining further Christian training. This year, as an Institute student, I've really experienced God’s hand in remolding and equipping me for His service.

MISS JUL GARBER from Mount Joy, PA

God showed me— He wanted me at the Institute, I followed His direction; So I am happy here. I am excited about all God is teaching me. He guides- And directs me every single day. He has taught me so much about following His guidance— Thru His Word, Thru prayer, and thru teachers.

A lot of friendly discussions that never go beyond the dormitory are a real resource to personal development, and many life long friendships.

Jack & Harry familiar faces on campus

With a busy speaking schedule like Jack's and Harry's, its a wonder that their faces are so familiar at the Institute. Jack often stops in for dinner and on other occasions, and Harry practically lives here during the winter snow camp season. Their homes are always open, and their eagerness to discuss future plans and give counsel and advise has given direction and blessing to the lives and hearts of many of us, especially in the area of missions. We thank God for the vision He gave these two men to start this Institute.

Get all excited and tell everybody . . .

r

As our teacher, Dr. Master is well known for his specialty, the morning verse quiz. The avid interest that his class lectures create generate spontaneous class discussions which are always interesting. As our Dean, he is much loved for his participation in the lives of the students. He is a real friend who is always willing to talk about any problems and often shares many blessings.

Mr. Page’s Page

Mr. Page was the workhorse at the center of all the campus events this year. Along with the help of the infamous demerit system, he delegated disciplinary authority to the dorm supervisors who, in turn, prodded and exhorted their fellow students in successful campus living. The demerit review board was the guarantee for liberty and justice for all. To be clued in on what's happening and where to be when it happens, his semi-regular literary gem, PAGE'S PAGE is the official voice of command.

Mr. Maier to head up Word of Life institute in Germany An outstanding teacher of a tough subject, Theology, Mr. Maier had the reputation among the students of being able to answer every question, even the ones that were designed to stump him. All of his classes were a vast source of practical information as well as a lot of homework, as any Hermenutics elective student will verify. In the fall of this year, Mr. Maier plans to move to Germany with his family where he will head up the Word of Life Bible Institute there. Let's pray that God will use this man's ministry in the hearts and lives of his future students in Germany, as He has in our own lives.

Mr. Maier gives all the vital information needed to fill in the notes he furnishes his class.

Competent to counsel

Miss Hughes always seems to be on the go, but as the Dean of Women, that is the pace set for her by the more than 130 single girls she ministers to. Miss Newton is Assistant to the Dean of Women, as well as our librarian. Both share the responsibility of counseling and encouraging these girls. They are both graduates of the Word of Life Bible Institute, and so can easily identify with the campus situation. The many chats in the office, around campus, and even in their homes have been a rich source of God's blessing. Miss Hughes also supervises the table assignments and heads up the Alumni Club.

Af#\ Logan: Never* too busy? Along with his usual responsibilities, which include setting up the weekend ministries and managing the business aspect of the Bible Institute, Mr. Logan is also the yearbook advisor. It need not be said that he is a very busy man, but never too busy for that familiar Logan smile which greets the many visitors to his office throughout the day.

And his many talented secretary

Micki Liming was Mr. Logan's full-time secretary until the early part of the second quarter when a proposed change of name brought about a change of residence and occupation. She was married in April of this year, and now her name is Mrs. Micki Mease!

Pastor John Fleck

From Genesis to Revelation One of the most unique aspects of our program at the Institute is the large variety of guest lecturers. Such a wide selection enables the students to get many different approaches to the teaching of the Word of God. Pastor Joseph Stowell began the year off right with the book of Genesis. Romans was taught next by Dr. David Allen. Other instructors included Dr. Paul Benware —Galatians, Dr. Charles Ryrie—Creationism and the Gospel of Luke, Dr. Clarence Didden—the Gospel of John, Dr. Thomas F igart—Exodus and the Minor Prophets, Pastor John Fleck—II Corinthians, Mr. Jack Wyrtzen—II Peter and Jude, Dr. Wendell Kempton—Ephesians and Philemon, Dr Renald Showers and Mr. Tom Taylor—two aspects of church history, Dr. Don Jennings—I Peter, Dr. John Michell—Revelation Dr. Dwight Pen t ecost —Dan ieI, Mr. Don Robbie Ro ber t son —PhiIipp ians, Dr. Lehman Strau ss—Epistles of John and Rev. Al Larsen—Colossians. The list of these well qualified teachers is long, but each left a personal impact on the hearts of each of the students.

Nothing says lovin like something from the oven

Although some students will say it doesn't quite compare to "back home victuals", all will testify to the fact that there is no better institutional cooking to be found anywhere. Good cooking is no accident and neither are good cooks. We are thankful to God for the men He has provided to minister to our physical needs.

Computer Cares! A high point in the social events this year was the Cupid Computer Banquet. Centered around the Valentine theme, here we have a cartoonists impression of what went on. Note how the all wise computer finds individuals and through logical systematic computation, selects the perfect match.

The 1975 Word of Life Bible Institute Missions Seminar

The Missions seminar was a real eye opener for many of the students. The program lasted three days and consisted of a banquet prayer bands, lectures and a panel of discussion. The needs and qualifications of missionaries to a world without Christ were discussed, and many students were led to commit their lives to various aspects of mission work.

Dinner was served buffet style.

Thanksgiving Festivities The Bible Institute did its best this year to overcome the lonely feelings that come from being away from kinsfolk during the Thanksgiving season by preparing a delicious turkey dinner with all the trimmings. Jack Wyrtzen and the Word of Life Singers came to entertain and share from the Word of God. It was a great time of blessing and remembrance of the many blessings of the past year.

Weekend Ministries In local churches and communities up to 300miles away!

An effective way for the students to share what they have learned in the classroom is through the weekend ministries. Each Saturday in the Spring and Fall they disperse to neighboring communities in New York and surrounding New England states to assist many local churches in

evangelism with a variety of methods, including door to door, in shopping centers, teaching Sunday school, and holding Saturday night rallies. In every aspect of the weekend program, students are offered a practical opportunity to help fulfill the great commission.

33

Who one they anyway? For twenty weekends, from December to June two vans left the campus travelling south to the Perth Bible Church in Amsterdam, New York loaded with 25 students, These students were involved in a program which centered around learning through participation in the various aspects of the local church ministry. By the end of the twenty weeks, each student had ample opportunity to participate in every area of the church program.

Thousands There is no simple word that would adequately describe the transformed atmosphere of the Word of Life Bible Institute after Snow Camp settles in for the weekend. After the Friday exams students become involved in a variety of responsibilities from maintenance to food services or as counselors to the "Thousands" of Snow Campers. The campers are divided into two teams, and challenges take place between each team involving a wide variety of athletic activities and other unbelievable accomplishments. Such names as Wart Hogs and Slushes will long linger in the minds of all those involved, but most of all, the changed lives of those who either received Christ or committed their lives to Him for service will last much longer than their memories, even into eternity. For both student and camper, Snow Camp was and will be a rewarding experience.

WOLB! Undefeate One of the main highlights of the snow camp events were the Saturday night Basketball games. The WOLBI team, coached by Larry Bollback challenged the winning snow camp team which usually represented one of the visiting Bible Clubs or other church groups. The WOLBI team enjoyed an undefeated season this year.

37

Bible Clubs

Student Involvement Bible Clubs are an effective part of the weekend ministry program at the Institute. The students are involved in starting Bible Clubs in surrounding local churches, and establishing them so they will be self-sufficient when the time comes for the students to leave. The Clubs are designed to establish Godly patterns of living in the lives of each Club member. The regular activities include various methods of Bible study and Scripture memorization, along with a daily quiet time.

100 Voice Choir Tours the Eastern U.S. The end of the first quarter found the choir going on a tour in which they were able to cover much of the eastern United States in ten days by dividing into two travel groups. Harry Bollback traveled with the eastern group and Jack Wyrtzen traveled with the western group. Each night they presented an evangelistic message along with the choir's presentation of the Christmas story in testimony and song.

Child Evangelism

Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Rautio demonstrate effective teaching methods.

Many of the married students work in the ministry of Child Evangelism. Meeting in local Christian homes, they are given the opportunity to share Christ with the boys and gjrls of local communities. As a result, many children were saved, and each student working with them received invaluable training that will help them to establish Good News Clubs after they leave the Bible Institute.

Good News Clubs held in homes give youngsters an opportunity to participate in memorizing Scripture and hearing Bible related stories.

i WORK ASSIGNMENTS Each student living on campus has a special opportunity to apply himself in various areas of Christian service. The work assignments usually involve some aspect of maintenance, food services and offices. Many of the fellows and girls are able to apply their previously developed skills and also develop new ones. All of this helps to develop a servant attitude which is a vital part of the balanced Christian life.

Institute

The Summer Program In addition to the three academic quarters of our one year program is the Summer Institute of Camping. This begins with a special two week training program which starts in the middle of June. All students who desire to graduate with a diploma are required to apply to the Summer Institute of Camping where they will have ample opportunity to put the classroom training into daily practical use. With all of the activities on the Ranch, Ranger Camp, Island and the Inn, there is excellent opportunity to better realize the value God places on the individual. Pictured are some of the scenes from the first week of training that was held on the grounds of the Bible I nstitute.

The men's Dorm Supervisors are: (left to right, top) Bob Wright, Dickie Powell, Harry Price, Ed Bare, Dave MacBain, (bottom) Tony Galbicka, Richard Haywood, Howie Williams, Scott Gifford, and Bob Brett. Q\)t Jllanagement

The title "Dorm Supervisor" can bring many things to the minds of many people. To some, it means a familiar 3 x5 inch white slip, while to others it means a friend and counselor. But to all it means a person who has played a significant role in motivating a disciplined life, which is a necessary part of life for anyone who wants to seriously study God's Word. This year our Dorm Supervisors worked closely with the Dean of Students and the Dean of Women to enforce school policy and to help students develop disciplined lives. We thank God for the vital role that each one has taken.

All right, you guys will be reading about this . . .

WOLBIS

AEROBICS

PROGRAM Headed up by John Bole and Larry Bollback

Larry came to us after completing school at Cedarville. He realized the truth of I Timothy 4:8 which tells us that "bodily exercise profiteth little . . ." So he carefully redesigned the Aerobics program to establish a regular exercise schedule to enable each person to profit at least a little.

John headed the Aerobics program during the first quarter. He established regular hours for physical exercise, and set up running courses for people and horses! Horseback riding and canoeing were two of the favorite execises when the weather permitted.

65

There was a wide variety of exercises that you could do to score your 30 Aerobics points each week.

ROPE JUMPING

CALISTHENICS

Only three weeks in Larry's Aero­ bics program did this for me.

I SURE AINT NO DUMMY Before I started the Aerobics plan, I was all brain and no brawn and could hardly lift any weights, but since then, DUH . . .

Medical Center

The infirmary is constantly manned by two full-time registered nurses who make it their ambition to keep everyone in good health. This year's nurses were Sandy Dutcher and Dosh Armao. They diagnose all sorts of ailments, prescribe basic medicine, and set up doctor appointments for anyone who needs further medical assistance.

Sandy is busily engaged in taking a blood pressure reading.

And cleaning up the dorms

An average day begins with personal hygiene.

Campus Life at WondofL

Each person has a quiet time the first thing after breakfast.

Almost every dorm has its mascots.

106

The morning hours are filled with classes in council hall.

. . . which are all carefully recorded

In case you couldn't concentrate very well while in class .

107

Meal time is always a time of good food and fellowship.

Along with all of the current announcements.

Going to town to do laundry is all part of the weekly routine at WOLBI.

After class, mail call is the most eagerly awaited event.

108

Study to show thyself approved.

Evening devotions are a vital part of dormitory life.

109

Student Council C o-ordinates Even The Student Council did their part in keeping things hopping. They organized and planned the traditional banquets and developed the student prayer bands for the missions seminar and then endeavored to encourage weekly prayer groups for specific mission fields. In addition, the student body was encouraged to meet in Council Hall for prayer each morning before breakfast. The Council was very successful in injecting life into the social and spiritual needs of the student body. Members were (left to right): Gary Manter, President; Ed Bare, Vice President; Deborah Manter, Secretary; Jim Gilles, Missions President; Linda Fernandez Missions The lunch table was a typical meetin9 P|ace for the student council. They found Secretary/Treasurer; Peter Spellman, 11t0 be an ldeal location to plan our banpuets and other related events. Chaplain; Howie Williams, Treasurer.

Yearbook Staff Along with the normal rigors that accompany the completion of a yearbook, this year's staff was faced with an extra responsibility that of preparing the book in a camera ready form. As the testimony of this completed volume indicates, the staff was able to face up to the task, and as to the quality of the contents, we'll let you be the judge. All in all, it was a rewarding and learning experience for all involved, and we thank God He has entrusted us with this responsibility.

John Pedersen assisted in writing copy, and pasting down the pages.

Gina Crews helped out in some of the mailing and sending out receipts.

Other member of the staff that were involved in other capacities were: Terry Manter Linda Wise

Lynn Peters was well known for his persistence in taking pictures. How did he pull this one off?

Empty now, the familiar lakeside path will be left behind, and many of us will never walk that way again. While a year at the Institute made this path a daily part of our lives, there is another path, a much more lasting and beautiful path that many of us will continue to walk when we leave. It is the path of daily communion with God, upon which others will tread as a result of our influence in their lives. Praise God for this year, and the men that He used to encourage us to walk a path of daily fellowship with a living SavioL .
