However, when the children "of missionaries reach the higher grades, they face a difficult decision on where to further their education. They must choose between going overseas by themselves or' with their parents, go to Rhodesia or take correspondence courses. This year is the 60th an- niversary of their school. Its motto is taken from II Timothy 3:14: "But continue thou". Many pupils remain faithful and are in Christian work. Some even return to work at the mission station. The children are separated from their parents while at the school: In one case the church advised missionary parents to keep their children home.. However, one particular family felt their son needed to attend. the school. While there Mrs. Richardson was able to lead him to the Lord, indicating that the parents had made the right decision. The missionaries also go out "villaging". The Zam- bians always give them good response and they are able to enjoy the beautiful coun- tryside. While in the villages they are exposed to favorite Zambian dishes of roasted caterpillars and ants, dishes Mrs. Richardson has thus far declined. Mrs. Richardson asked'the ladies to, pray for the safety of the missionaries as violence is increasing. She closed her slide presentation with a prayer of thanks. Mrs. Chittick thanked the speaker.
