What is a living witness tree? These are the beautiful evergreens, oaks and cedars growing at Forest Home Christian Camp and Conference Center in-the San Bernardino mountains,' 90 miles east of Los Angeles, Calif. What do they witness to? To the fact that for nearly 100 years these grounds have been especially dedicated to God. The area was first claimed for God in 1876. It has been set aside as a hallowed spot where Christians could meet for fellowship and study, and where their children could enjoy a camping experience in a com pletely Christian climate. What is their message? The physical presence of these trees attests to the rich material resources of Forest Home which have made their growth possible. The fact that they have not been sold for lumber shows that the Center is being conserved for future generations by Christians who value its spiritual resources. Hundreds of outstanding Christians have been profoundly influenced by their experiences at Forest Home. The trees which silently witnessed the shaping of their lives for God now watch their children’s lives being molded for Him. What do they stand for?
