DANiEl coNTiNuEs woRk wiT~ PW\SE 111, coNsulTS wiT~ sc~ools ON dEvEl.opMENT C. FLOYD DANIEL, B.S., VicePresident for Development, worked with his main activities directed toward the completion of the pledging of Phase 111. The $11.3 million capital campaign was the largest of such campaigns in the history of the school. He continued to work closely with the Trustee Development Committee and the President's Development Council in carrying out the overall development program for the college. Plans were made to launch a volunteer effort using members of the President's Development Council in various congregations across the country in behalf of furnishing several dormitories and other buildings on campus. Daniel worked with the development department at the Harding Graduate School of Religion in Memphis in planning to launch a campaign for $2 million. Daniel was called on by the president of Freed-Hardeman College in Henderson, Tenn., to do some consulting work with the college in development and fund raising. He was one of the featured speakers in August for the beginning of the school year at Freed-Hardeman. He was also contacted by the Board of Directors of the Jackson Christian School in Jackson, Tenn., and the administration of Bell Haven College in Jackson, Miss., to discuss fund raising and development for the schools. Daniel worked closely with Crowley's Ridge Academy and the Children's Home in Paragould, Ark., in fund raising projects. Both projects were successful and aided in the development of the institutions. He served as a deacon and president of the Christian Service Committee at the College church of Christ and was on the Finance and Missions Committees. He served on the Executive Committee of the college and was a member of the Board of Directors at Camp Wyldewood. Christian education is important to me because of the opportunity this involvement gives me and others to advance the Kingdom of God on this earth. I believe that the fundamental purpose for Jesus' leaving heaven and coming to earth was to seek and save the lost. As Christians, I believe our primary purpose in this life is proclaiming the gospel of Christ to lost people. The greatest resource for proclaiming the gospel to the lost is the human resource. In Matthew 9:38, Jesus refers to the human resource as laborers and tells us to pray for more laborers. At Harding we are preparing laborers for the Kingdom, whether they be accountants, teachers, doctors, missionaries or homemakers. To make this all possible we ml!st _have buildings and equipment. Every bnck m every building represents a gift from someone. It is a joy to ask others to invest in Harding's young people. Their investment will have eternal consequences for good. -C.
