Atlanta Trip Gives Students
New Insight About Missions
Forty-two students led by pro
fessor Robert Trexler and Dr. Bob
Lamb recently enjoyed a tour of
Atlanta, Georgia._The group—too
large to all fit into the Bulldog
bus—squeezed the overflow num-
' ber into a VW bus driven by Mr.
Chip Carter.
The first stop was at the South
ern Baptist Home Mission Board
which they toured from bottom to
top. While there they met Bill and
Carol Blessing, US-2 workers at
the Aurora House, a Christian
ministry on Atlanta’s drug strip.
They also met Rev. David Beal
who coordinates the work of the
Atlanta Baptist Association in
Christian Ministries. Mr. Beal then
led in a tour of the Clark Howell-
Techwood Center which ministers
to people living in a low rent
neighborhood just south of Geor
gia Tech. Union Baptist Church
was the next stop, and the stu
dents were so impressed with the
pastor. Rev. James Wilborn, Sr.,
that they wished the trip were a
day longer so they could attend
the worship service there. Learn
ing of the church’s eight choirs
caused them to be even more
deeply impressed that a worship
service in that congregation would
be quite an experience.
Members of the Second-Ponce
de Leon Baptist Church served
as hosts providing overnight ac
commodations for everyone on the
tour. Many provided tours of the
city which included points of in
terest such as downtown Atlanta,
underground Atlanta, and the new
governor’s mans-'on. On Saturday
morning six of the e’ght ministers
on the staff of Second-Ponce de
Leon ' Church shared with the
group what it was like to work
with a four thousand member
church whose total yearly budget
is approximately one million dol
lars. Before starting home the
group stopped by the county ju
venile court and heard Chaplain
Henry Crowe talk about his work
with youth and family services.
Meeting in the courtroom itself
and knowing that youthful offen
ders were be'ng detained just
around the corner added urgent
reality to the presentation.
Student enthusiasm for the trip
ran high. James Hobemicht said,
“In the brief period of the trip, I
have personally been made aware
of the organized efforts to meet
the needs of certain people or
groups. My own interests to the
needs of others have been
aroused.” Steve Sells said. “This
tr'p was very meaningful to me,
because I never knew enough
about missions to really care. Now
missions because I could see the
Love of God at work.” Leland
Kerr said, “I know that I have
returned with better insight and
more determ'nat'on to carry out
“Christ’s Miss'on” wherever I
might be.” Mary Wells said, “Our
trip to Atlanta was a real blessing
to me. 1 truly appreciate people
who feel there is more to learning
than the classroom and then does
something about it.”
