Sisters of
Distinction
The Christmas season is one of the
most anticipated and exciting times of
the year. This is a time to show the
ones we love how important they are
to us. We can hear the Christmas
music as we move down the aisle in
the stores pondering on what to buy.
We cruise down the neighborhood
streets to view the colorful lights, and
the lovely melodies of Christmas carols
linger in our ears. All people around
the world look forward to the holiday
season.
On the other hand, there are some
people who are not as fortunate as
others. They are sheltered women
and children whom we call survivors.
These women have been survivors
of domestic violence and so many
other circumstances. In light of their
condition, the members of Sisters of
Distinction would like to assist the
shelter for the holiday season. Sisters
of Distinction take pride in aiding NCWC
and the Rocky Mount Community. We
wish we were able to give until our
hearts are content, but at this time we
are not able. For this reason we are
making a plea to the faculty and staff of
the College to aid us in our venture to
promote the art of giving.
Sisters of Distinction would like to
invite each and every able bodied
person to donate gifts from the heart.
If you are interested in joining with our
organization, please contact Ms. Lupia
Guion at 252-984-3108 for further
information. Sisters of Distinction
is a non-profit organization on the
Wesleyan campus, donations will be
given to the purpose of making the
families at My Sisters House enjoy
their holiday.
Thank you,
Lupia Guion
President of Sisters of Distinction

GRACE AND PEACE
TO YOU FROM THE
NC WESLEYAN
REFUGE CLUB
NIKKI LANDRY, THE REFUGE
CLUB
One of the goals The Refuge Club
is striving to reach in the 2003-2004
academic year, is to incorporate a
diverse group of people. We would like
to attract and keep students coming to
the meetings that would not normally
be interested in just a ‘chapel service’.
In order to achieve this goal, we are
putting together activities once a month
that would bring students not familiar
with or normally uninterested in The
Refuge. In the month of September,
we had a self defense course taught
by a three time karate champion from
■IMilillM
the Rocky Mount area named James
Dozier. He taught us practical defense
moves along with godly wisdom
we need for living out the Christian
life. The result was exactly what we
wanted. People were introduced to
The Refuge Club and invited back.
New relationships were made that are
still being maintained to this day.
For the second trial at involving
new people, we held a free cookout
and Christian concert in the Hartness
center on Tuesday, October 28. We
knew that if anything would draw a
crowd, it would be free food! As the
crowd came, the people of the Refuge
got to sit down and talk to them about
the Refuge, what we stand for and
what we are all about. The night was
a success! Everyone had a wonderfu
time and the following Tuesday we had
double the normal amount of people al
the Refuge meeting! God moved in a
mighty way and lives were changed,
We give God all the glory and are
excited to see what He will do in the
rest of this year!
Thank you for your support.
Remembering
our Past
This month in Wesleyan history we
remember the 1977 Men’s Soccer
team.
The Bishops finished the year with
a 8-4-2 record to take posession of
second place in the Dixie Conference
behind Virginia Wesleyan. This was
the teams best finish in the history
of Wesleyan Soccer to date and
included wins over High Point, ECU
and UNC Greensboro.
The leading Scorer that year was
center James Lipscomb, a fresh
man from Richmond, Virginia, with
6 goals. Other standouts that year
were Senior defenseman Stanley
Jarrett who scored 5 goals on the
year, most comming on free kicks, left
wing Freshman Billy Maynard with
4 goals, right wing Billy King and all
purpose lineman Greg Dittman with 2
goals each.
In goal that year was Major De
ment, an all conference contender
and the anchor of the team with 98
saves.
Graduating senior starters were the
fore mentioned Stanley Jarrett, full
back Eddie King and someone we all
know, fullback turned Current School
Registrar, Cliff Sullivan.
