ONLY JESUS / CALVARY’S LOVE Only Jesus, only He Brings redemption full and free There’s a yearning in all our lives That only Jesus satisfies Calvary’s Love will sail forever Bright and shining, strong and free Like an ark of peace and safety On the sea of human need Through the hours of all the ages Those tired of sailing on their own Finally rest inside the shadow Cast by Calvary’s Love across their souls Calvary’s Love, Calvary’s Love Priceless gift Christ makes us worthy of The deepest sin can’t rise above Calvary’s Love Calvary’s Love can heal the spirit Life has crushed and cast aside And redeem till heaven’s promise Fills with joy once empty eyes So desire to tell the story Of a Love that loved enough to die Burns away all other passions And fed by Calvary’s Love, becomes a fire Calvary’s Love, Calvary’s Love Priceless gift Christ makes us worthy of The deepest sin can’t rise above Calvary’s Love Calvary’s Love has never faltered All its wonders still remain Souls still take eternal passage Sins atoned and heaven gained Sins atoned and heaven gained                                                                                                --Phil McHugh/Greg Nelson

LETTER FROM THE ISF ASSISTANT Dear International Friend, Greetings to you from International Student Fellowship. It is hard to believe that another summer is almost gone and soon the autumn season will be here (September 23rd). Unfortunately, the last summer holiday, Labor Day, did not turn out to be too nice of a day here in Pittsburgh. Hopefully, you took advantage of the day off from studies or work and just relaxed and took it easy. We spent the day trying to put the finishing touches on our basement room that we want to use for our Bible Studies. By the time you receive this letter it will be all finished and the carpet will be in place. It may not be a professional job, but we did the best we could to make it a nice roomy area for you to come and visit us in. We welcome you to visit and join us in our weekly Bible Studies. We have enjoyed meeting some new friends in the month of August. If we have not seen you for a while, our next gathering in the month of September would be a nice time for you to come so we can see you again and you can meet some new International friends. We welcome you to invite a friend. We will look forward to seeing you at the September gathering. This gathering will be on Friday, September 19th at 7:30 PM in the beautiful Ballroom of the William Pitt Union. The William Pitt Union is located in Oakland on the corner of Bigelow and Fifth Avenue. To get to the Ballroom, use the entrance on Fifth Avenue and then follow the signs. Steve Goodenow, who has spoken at previous ISF Gatherings, will be speaking to us. His lecture will have something to do with the scientific evidence of creation. We are sure you will find this to be a challenging lecture. As always, there will be good music, wonderful fellowship, a full course meal for you to enjoy and of course there will be children’s activities in the Kurtzman room. And remember it’s all free! We look forward to seeing you on September 19th!                                                                                                       --Terry Tiberio, ISF Assistant
