Editor’s Note from June 18, 1971

I recently gave the commencement address at Asbury College in Wilmore, Kentucky. A year ago this Methodist-oriented school experienced a spiritual awakening whose effects continue to be felt around the world. Some months ago a group of Asbury students shared their testimonies with us during a devotional period at CHRISTIANITY TODAY. The freshness and vitality of their witness was impressive. Signs continue to point toward a spiritual revival in the United Methodist Church, and tens of thousands of evangelicals are praying and working to that end.

I’m pleased to announce the coming of Henry De Weerd as our circulation manager. He has a B.S. in business administration from Indiana University and a diploma in broadcast engineering technology from Moody Bible Institute, plus certificates for various courses at which an editorial mind can only wonder (what might he have learned at Crypto Repair School? at Tropospheric Scatter School in Anchorage, Alaska?). We gladly entrust to his care those equally inscrutable machines in our fulfillment department and the staff members who keep them happy and humming. Mr. De Weerd comes to us from WMBI, the radio station of Moody Bible Institute, where he was assistant manager. We welcome him, his wife, and their two small children to the magazine family.
