NEWBUDGET FOR ALUMNI ASSOCIATIONYour executive committee ha s completed plans

for a new financial structure fo r th e ministry of yourassociation. The basic idea is a unified budge t wi tha goal of 30,000 to be subscribed by mail and telephone p ledges for 1971. The budge t breakdown willbe 45% for th e dorm fund (projections indicate thattogether with the balance of 1970 this will reti re th ebonds by October, 1971); 45%for the l ibrary fiind (wehave 70,000 pledged towards our 100,000 g oa l a n d 25 ,0 00 h as b ee n r ec ei ve d in cash); 5% for th e general fund which operates th e association (together

with a s so c ia t io n d u es t h is will be sufficient); 3% fo rascholarshipfund(aspecial committee meets October5 to se t up the program for 1971; Ji m North is chairman); and 2% for a benevolence fund to aid a lumni inspecial need (this fund will have a to p limit of 500).

Thus when you give for th e minis try of youralumni association, your gifts will be divided accordingly, and you will be asked each year for support ofsuch a min is try. Th is f inancial s truc tu re will be di scussed at alumni chapter meetingsforalumni response.Suggestions wil l also be welcome via mail to th ea l um n i o f f ic e .

YOUR WILL-GOD S WILLSomeone ha s said, Every Christian

should have a will and every will should beC h r i s t i a n . Your will s ho uld b e an a ct ofthanks to God for his blessings to you. Ifyou want to continue doing good on earthwhen God cal ls you to heaven, remember God swork f or w hi ch you h av e w or ke d, p ra ye d, a ndsacrificed dur ing your l ife.

Here ar e t imely suggestions to rememberin making a will.

Don t p os t po ne d oi ng it. Most peopleneve r ge t it done.

Don t make it yourself. A will is atechnical legal document. It should beprepared by a lawyer. The modest costis on e of t he b es t investments you wille v e r make .

Don t forget that your will is anotheropportunity for you to s ho w yo ur allegiance to Christ, by h el pi ng His work goon af ter yo u have entered your eternalr e w a r d .

Don t a ss um e t ha t w it ts a re only t o r t h e-extremely wealthy. If you do no t have awill, your property {home, car, furniture,s tocks , bonds, lands, etc . , ) will bed iv id ed a c co rd in g to the laws of th es t t e

Don t fail to update your will when it isadvisable. Usually this is best done bywriting a new will.

Don t neglect putt ing your will where itca n be easilyfound following your death.

When you prepare your will be sure tomake it Christian. As a trustee of the property you have beengiven by God,give a l ib er alport ion to help train more preachers, missiona ri es , e ld er s, deacons , Bible t eachers , an dChristian homemakers who will put Christand Hi s kingdom first.
