In the Garden
In the garden on that day.
Our Blessed Savior knelt to pray.
With head bowed low, and tear in eye,
He asked the Father in the sky --
To keep us with His special love -
Till we can join Him up above.
How special is our Savior’s love
That He should come from above.
To this strange and sinning land.
To walk among the sons of man.
To suffer shame and humility.
To die, on the cross for you and me
How great a sacrifice Our Father made.
So great his love, that His Son gave
So let Him not have died in vain.
Call upon his precious name.
Jesus, Jesus, I believe.
The Blessed Son of God, you be.
With these words, I know one finds -
Forgiveness and Peace of mind.
I know one day. I’ll face Death’s dark door.
But even this I fear know more.
For as my Savior knelt to pray.
In the Garden on that day.
The Father, said, “By you they’ll come.
To me in Heaven, one by one.
There they’ll find abiding love -
Tears will be no more.
And You my Son will greet them each -
At Heaven’s open door."

A Letter
from Tony Campolo
Students of Montreat:
I appreciated the good
reception that you gave to
me during my brief visit to
your campus as i delivered
the Staley Lecture Series of
1984.
Your student body is ex
citing and alive. The spirit
of God is moving in your
midst.
I am anxious to share with
you some opportunities if
you are interested in pursu
ing a career in missionary
service. First of all, you
might contact Intercristo.
This organization provides a
computer service whereby
your background, interests,
aptitudes, and abilities are
matched up with the needs
of mission stations around
the world. In a scientific
way, you can learn almost
every missionary option
available to you. This ser
vice requires a small fee, but
it is well worth it. You will
be sent a print-out of hun
dreds of missoinary oppor
tunities that would fit your
needs and calling, you can
write to Intercristo at: 19303
Freemont Avenue, Seattle,
WA 98133. You can also
call them toll free: 1-800:
426-1343.
The second option is to
contact the Mennon|te Cen
tral Committee, 21 South
12th Street, Akron, PA
17501. This organization is
interested in volunteer
workers who are willing to
go into a service vocation
for a two-year period. The
Mennonite Central Commit

ing expenses, living ex
penses, and provide you
with a very small stipend.
You can try out being a mis
sionary for two years
without any costs* You can
work on a field that
challenges your interest and
discover if missionary work
is your calling. A similar op
portunity for volunteer work
is provided by the General
.Conference of the Men
nonite Church, Box 347,
Newton, KS 67114.
Needless to say, I would
love for you to pursue your
education by coming to
Eastern College, St. David’s,
PA 19087. I would love to
have you study in our Socio
logy department. We have
programs in youth minis
tries and in missions that
would provioe fantastic
background for service, both
overseas and here on the
homefront. If you want to
know more about Eastern
and the way in which we are
attempting to carry out the
missionary imperative and
the ways in which we are
training people for youth
ministries here in the United
States just drop me a line, i
am most anxious to corres
pond with you.
Best wishes for a good
new year. I pray God’s
richest blessing on you and
look forward to the time
when I can visit with you
again.
Your friend in Christ,
Tony Campolo
