Lutheran Synodical Conference, 1958 101

More than a year ago we were privileged to have in our midst
she. president of Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, who visited our
fchool, attended classes, held a conference with the faculty, and
requested us to file a report with him on the basis of a ques-
Honnaire, which covered every phase of our work. He also visited
_ schools within the scope of the missionary activities of the
issouri Synod and will. bring his recommendations to the Board
‘Directors of the Missouri Synod in due time.

During the month of May we were pleased to have on our
campus three members of the Missionary Board and Dr. Kurth,
© spent several days and many hours “evaluating” Immanuel,
ts faculty, students, and its.operation from first hand information.
astor R. R. Pollatz, B.D., M.A., of Saginaw, represented the
souri Synod; Pastor G. A. R. Gullixon, Cottage Grove, Wis.,
epresented the Norwegian Synod; and Pastor John Bajus, Chi-
cago, represented the Slovak Synod. The representative of the
Wisconsin Synod could not come due to other commitments.
Also during the month of May Mr. E. R. Streufert of the
Fiscal Department of the Missouri Synod spent about a week on
f the campus auditing the accounts of the college in all departments.
.,. His report and recommendations have been made to the Mission-
ary Board.

We believe that all of these visitations, conferences, and dis-
cussions are helping to bring about a clarification of the future
’ challenges and opportunities for I.L.C. The past 54 years of the
F operation of I.L.C. have seen abundant results for the Kingdom
‘under. the powerful blessing of God. We pray that His grace will
* be sufficient to this convention to strengthen the foundations of
Immanuel and to expand in ever greater measure the effectiveness
and influence of the school for the furtherance of God’s kingdom
». and the glory of His name. a

ALABAMA LUTHERAN ACADEMY-COLLEGE
Seutma, ALA.
By Rev. Wm, G. Kennell; Chairman, Board of Control

Alabama Lutheran Academy-College had reason for rejoicing
when, in Convention assembled, on July 31 and August 1, 1957,
the Lutheran Women’s Missionary League, meeting at Minneap-
olis, Minn., voted as one of its projects the erection of a girls’
dormitory upon the Academy campus. Additional dormitory space
has been needed for the past years, but because of the pressing
nature of other needs (an administration~classroom-library build-
ing), consideration of a girls’ dormitory had to be put aside. The
$85,000 granted by the LWML will soon bring to reality a needed
addition to the campus buildings. We are most grateful to the
LWML for this gift. a.

Congregations and individuals throughout the country have
been:most generous in their. remembrances of the Academy. Gifts
from Ohio, Wisconsin, Georgia, Maryland, Minnesota, Iowa, Mis-
souri, and. Illinois were sent to aid the school:.in one way or
another. Cos bya
