their sincere appreciation for the
many acts of kindness extended
during their time of sorrow.
“I began taking drugs when I
was 8 years old. My older brother got
me started,” states a youth pastor at a
Portland-area church.
Those statements reflect reality.
Over half of sixth graders report pres­
sure to drink beer, wine or liquor and
one out of three boys and one out of
five girls classify themselves as drink­
ers by age 13, according to the Na­
tional Clearing House for Alcohol
and Drug Information.
To address this problem at the
local level, a training of teachers on
the new “Well & Good" Alcohol,
Tobacco & Other Drugs Education
and Prevention Curriculum will be
presented on Saturday, October 8, at
9 a.m., at Hughes Memorial United
Methodist Church, 111 N.E. Failing
Street in Portland.
Focusing on values, self-es­
teem , behaviors, and outside in ­
fluences, the curriculum is adapt­
able to Sunday School settings
or youth group activities. It can
be taught as a weekly series or
broken down into sm aller com ­
ponents. It is designed to require
m inim al p re p ara tio n tim e for
teachers and include in-class ac­
tiv ities and hom e assignm ents.
The m aterial was w ritten in
co llab o ratio n with the State O f­
fice of A lcohol and D rug P ro­
gram s by the Drug E ducation
Program of Ecum enical M inis­
tries of O regon.
The registration fee of $10 in­
cludes training materials. Scholar­
ships are available. Please call Joyce
Adams, Asst. Director of the Drug
Education Program at Ecumenical
Ministries of Oregon, 221-1054, for
more information.

egories. Five are enrolled in a new
one-year diploma program in urban
ministries, leading to a master’s de­
gree. Sixteen people are taking part
in a new Spanish-language program.
Director of Enrollment Todd
McCollum said the previous high
enrollment was 208 people in 1981,
when the seminary was housed at its
former campus in Jennings Lodge,
southeast of Portland. The institu­
tion moved in 1992 to its Hampton
Plaza campus at 12753 S.W. 68th
Ave. in Tigard.
M cC ollum said the Tigard
campus’s convenient location near
the intersection of several major high­
ways has encouraged enrollment.
"It’s easier to go to,” he said.
